As demonstrated in the table above, there are no changes to the number for spaces allocated to the office
and shop uses (spaces have been rounded down as they are marginally over the nearest whole number).

The proposed development is expected to accommodate seniors living where the average age is early 70’s. It
is located in a fairly isolated location, within a semi-detached housing / open space recreation zone, with the
wider catchment being a detached housing zone. Due to the location, it is expected that a majority of the food
and beverage users will come from the development itself and it is expected that there will be shared demand
between the proposed land uses, primarily between the food and beverage and recreation, amusement and
fitness uses. Further to this, the recreation, amusement and fitness use is not likely to generate a large demand
of users from the development, as well as any external visitors due to the intended operation of the site.

The applicant has advised TTM of the following operational characteristics of the food and beverage use:

•      The tenancy will likely operate between 6am – midnight

•      The tenancy is expected to facilitate up to 150 seats with the following breakdown:

       -     During the morning (6am-7am), approximately 30 diners at expected;

       -     During the daytime and evening (7am to 10pm), the use is likely to have a maximum 150 diners;

       -     During the evening (from 10pm to midnight), it is unlikely that there would be more than 100 diners.

•      5 FTE employed at the Restaurant/Café

It is unlikely that the food and beverage use will have a capacity up to 150 diners at a time. It is expected that
a large portion (up to 80-90%) of the food and beverage users will reside locally within the site, where they
will walk from their respective dwellings; consequently not generating parking demand.
