Negotiated Report (Representations made) MCU24 0125, OPW24 0150 & RAL24 0021 (As Published) · MCU24/0125

               Figure 6 shows another example of how these units (i.e. Units 6-11 and 12-15) have been treated
               with a combination of fixed screens, blade screen and landscape planters to minimise opportunities
               for overlooking into the private open space areas of adjoining residents.
               Having regard to these additional treatments and the revised documentation submitted, it is
               considered that the matters identified in Preliminary Approval Condition 1.4 have been satisfactorily
               addressed by the applicant. The amendments demonstrate compliance with the intent of the
               condition and reflect a design response that appropriately resolves the identified concerns relating
               to overlooking, privacy, and maintaining residential amenity.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended Preliminary Approval Condition 1.4 be deleted.
               An additional plan is included to describe the relationship and privacy between the units 4-11 &
               12-15, as per the images below. The images clearly detail the treatments to minimise overlooking
               including high level windows, podium planting, fencing and screens.


               Preliminary Approval Condition 1.5
               Confirm whether the combination of fill, retaining walls and fencing results in some overall fence
               heights of approximately 4m, when viewed from the adjoining properties and address the potential
               amenity impacts resulting from this outcome. Where necessary, amend the proposal plans to
               address any impacts that cannot be managed through reasonable and relevant conditions.
               Applicant’s Request
               The applicant has requested existing condition 1.5 be deleted.
               Additional sections are provided to demonstrate the relationship of the fence heights in relation to
               the adjoining development. Fences are to be a maximum of 2m along the boundaries of the site.
