4.0 Key Planning Matters

 

The detailed assessment contained in the appendices demonstrates that the proposed
development is consistent with the assessment benchmarks that are relevant to a
development application which involves assessable development subject to code
assessment.

The following section provides further discussion regarding key aspects of the
proposed development and clearly demonstrates that the proposed development is
responsive to the sites context and constraints and, therefore, is an appropriate
development outcome.

4.1 Unexploded Ordnance

A search of the environmental management register (EMR) and contaminated land
register (CLR) at Appendix A indicates the site is in an area of land categorised by the
Department of Defence as having a substantial potential to be affected by residual
unexploded ordnance (UXO).

The site is also mapped by the Development Assessment Mapping System (DAMS) at
Appendix A as being within an area with substantial potential for unexploded
ordnance (UXO).

The development application triggers referral to the Department of State Development,
Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning under the Planning Regulation 2017
(Schedule 10, Part 4, Division 3, Table 1, Item 1) where involving:

A development application for the following development, if all or part of the premises
are shown as an area of substantial unexploded ordnance potential in a mapping layer
in the development assessment mapping system:

b. amaterial change of use that is assessable development under a local categorising
instrument

A condition of any subsequent development approval will require the applicant to
provide written confirmation to the Department of State Development, Manufacturing,
Infrastructure and Planning by an approved contractor on the Department of Defence
- Unexploded Ordnance Panel that the site has been remediated and cleared on
unexploded ordnance (UXO).

4.2 Building Height

The proposed development results in a maximum building height of two (2) storeys
and 8.450m above ground level which does not comply with probable solution S4.1 or
probable solution $13.5 of the Eastern Beaches Locality Code which require:
