 “Adamson Town Planning, specialising in providing higher order town planning advice”



A copy of the Ground Floor Plan (Drawing No. 160012_A-D-A-02-02_4) is also provided as
Figure 2, which shows that the net enclosed floor area is 1,232m² (shown in blue and red).




Figure 3 – Lower Level Enclosed Area

While there is a net enclosed area of 1,232m², the net increase in floor area associated with
the new church is 817m². This is because the current church worship area, office and store will
remain, with the new church and other facilities being provided separately. Some of the
existing church structures are being removed including the kitchen, vestry and toilets (refer
Figure 1).

The new church worship area will have a floor area of 433m², with the new offices, kitchen,
amenities and small meeting room at ground floor having a floor area of 215m². The new
larger meeting room, amenities and kitchenet at the lower level will have a floor area of 169m².
The existing church worship area (338m²) will become the college hall and the office area at
the lower level is to become an additional store (77m²) (refer Figure 3).

Currently, the multi-purpose room (Figure 1) is used partly as an office and playgroup room
during church services and for playgroup meetings held two mornings per week. It is intended
that the large meeting room at the lower level will be used for community meetings, mostly
out of school hours, and will also be used as the new church playgroup room.

Issue - Car Parking and Access
It is unclear how many car parks are currently available on site.
