2. We are also seeking to have the rear boundary setback relaxed (volume of encroachments is
4.9m3 and a plan area of 8.4m2 approx.) in order to minimise the impact of greater boundary
setback encroachments on the street side of the lot. A mostly open balcony to take in the ocean
views has been employed with a skillion roof design to facilitate a marginally reduced line of
sight to ocean views by neighbouring dwellings. The inclusion of louvered screens to the
southern end of the balcony to buffer strong southern breezes have also been employed but
which are within the 6.0m setback allowed.

Further, we also acknowledge the need to provide a drainage solution, which would be provided
by a hydraulics engineer at building approval stage, for the discharge of water from the
basement level (including grated drain to front of garage door). This would be designed in a
manner that does not rely on mechanical pumping with our initial enquiries revealing that the
catchment area of concern is mostly contained within the driveway itself.

Orours Sincerely

Michael Bugden
