3. CONCLUSION

The development proposal is considered to represent a high quality residential development, which
respects the characteristics of the site, incorporates varying design elements to create visual interest and
allows a significant amount of existing vegetation to be retained within the frontage of the site to maintain
the visual amenity of the streetscape. As such, the proposed: Detached House is considered to integrate
well with the existing character of the Sunshine Beach locality.

This application can be supported on a number of grounds as previously detailed. These grounds include:

» The proposed relaxation for a reduced setback along the northern boundary are
consistent with the siting and form of surrounding development;

+ The proposed design incorporates horizontal and vertical articulation and a stepped
design which reduces the bulk appearance of the building and complies with
requirements for height;

+ The proposed siting maximises the retention of existing vegetation within the
frontage of the site, allows for additional landscaping to be provided and provides
adequate privacy for adjoining residences; and

+ The proposed design is consistent with the style and appearance of adjoining
architecturally designed Detached Housing and incorporates characteristics which
are typical of the Sunshine Beach locality.

The Assessment Manager's favourable consideration of the above development application is therefore
recommended. Please contact our Sunshine Coast office if you require any further information and/or
clarification with respect to the above application.

Yours sincerely
