4.     Proposed Development

This Minor Change Application is intended to facilitate the establishment of an ancillary
secondary dwelling (106m2 gross floor area) adjacent to the existing Dwelling House (3.4m
separation). For the purposes of the 1990 planning scheme the proposed ancillary secondary
dwelling is considered to constitute an outbuilding that is incidental and necessarily associated
with the Dwelling House.


Figure 2 below demonstrates the location of the secondary dwelling as being located 3.4 metres
From the existing dwelling, 10m from the western side boundary and 55.5m from the southern
boundary.

The proposed secondary dwelling is a single‑storey, 2‑bedroom modular home positioned
immediately adjacent to the existing primary dwelling on its western side. It has a simple
low‑profile roof form, Weathertex/Colorbond cladding, and an attached deck with walkway
ramps, presenting as a small, subordinate rural outbuilding that sits unobtrusively within the large
2.16 ha site. The proposed secondary dwelling has a maximum height of 3.744 above existing
ground level, which satisfies the minimum FFL as per Council’s Flood Information Certificate
(Attachment 2).

The secondary dwelling will utilise the existing driveway.
