b) have a maximum building height of- 2 storeys;
The proposed extension maintains the buildings current 2 storey format.
c) do not visually dominate the street, surrounding spaces or the existing skyline;

As indicated by plates 5 and 6 the existing dwelling is hardly visible to Bayview Road and the
extension will not be readily visible. The extension to the dwelling will reflect the existing roof line
and form of the building and will not impact on the surrounding spaces.

d) preserve the amenity of surrounding land including privacy, views and access to
sunlight;

The site is bounded to the east, north and south by areas of parkland
and the proposed extension does not impact on any of these areas, A
dwelling is located to the west of the site and it is noted that this
dwelling is lower than the subject site. The existing deck area currently
has the potential to overlook this dwelling, (shade sail visible in plate 7)
however the design of this adjoining building is that the private open
space areas including decks and windows are located away and below
the subject site. Existing vegetation is located along the common side
boundary which will screen the adjoining site in the future. The owner
of the adjoining site has no objection to the proposed extension.

9) respect the scale of surrounding vegetation;

 

As indicated by the photographs above the proposed extension is
consistent with the existing dwelling and the surrounding vegetation screens the site.

f)} respond fo the topography of the site by stepping down the slope or sitting above the
ground level on stumps, for sloping sites.

The site is considerably constrained in terms of slope. The existing dwelling steps down the slope

and the proposed extension follows the line of the building. Whilst the extension exceeds the height
requirements it also ensures that no further earthworks or removal of vegetation occurs on the site.
