                                                                                  relatively minor with most of the building setback 4.5
                                                                                  metres. Mill Street is relatively wide with the nearest

                                                                                  c) allow space for required vehicle parking;

                                                                                  The intrusion does not impact on carparking and it is
                                                                                  noted that the proposal provides in excess of scheme
                                                                                  requirements.

                                                                                  d) preserve any existing vegetation that will buffer the
