planning report 20 William st · MCU25/0054

The spiral stairs and eave/screening comply with PO9 for the following reasons-

•    pedestrian access is to the side of the small bedroom balcony and is well screened mitigating any
     overlooking opportunities;

•    the stairs are for access only and no congregating will occur to create noise;

•    the portion of stairs does not allow any additional overlooking to that if it were setback in accordance
     with AO9;

•    the stairs are centrally located on the lot providing at least 7.5m separation to each side boundary and
     consistent with neighbouring setbacks;

•    while no vegetation is proposed to be retained, dense landscaping between the stairs and the side
     boundaries and rear boundaries is proposed;

•    148-150 Noosa Pde (adjoining the subject site), 2, 12 16, 18 William St have reduced rear setbacks,
     demonstrating the setback variation is consistent with the predominant character in the surrounding
     area



    4.3   Building Design
The Multiple dwelling is finished with an attractive built form which addresses the street and contributes
positively to the surrounding development on William Street. Importantly no street facing garage doors are
incorporated. The design incorporates a mix of materials to add visual interest in accordance with the
requirements of the High Density Residential Zone code. This is achieved through variations in front façade
and 10 degree pitch roof form.
The design will be finished with high quality landscaping and useable communal and open space area. The
design contributes positively to the locality, enhances the streetscape, does not dominate the streetscape
and does not present as a large singly bulky development.
The proposal is fully compliant with all applicable Acceptable Outcomes.
