Land Development

1. Demonstrate how vehicles can access carspaces 4 & 5 in a forward gear, reverse out and
exit the site in a forward gear in a total of 3 movements.

The proposed development, under AS/NZS 2890.1:2004, will require carparking spaces
complying with both user class 1A and 3. User class 1A requires a minimum width of 2.4m and
class 3 a minimum width of 2.6m, Both require a minimum aisle width of 5.8m. The width of
carspaces 4 and 5 exceed the requirements for both user class 1A and 3 (including an
allowance for an additional 300mm for side wall obstruction) with an aisle width of 6.1m and
aisle extension of 1.3m. Turning templates for manoeuvring are also shown on attached plan
DA-01 issue A. Manoeuvring is therefore not considered an issue as the proposal complies with
AS/NZS 2890.1:2004.

2. Indicate on the plans the available sight lines to vehicles and pedestrians at the front
property boundary. Please note the sight lines are to be in accordance with section 3.2.4
of AS/NZS 2890. 1:2004.

Sight lines for vehicles leaving the site have been shown on attached plan DA-01 issue A. Sight
lines for pedestrians have been shown in accordance with Figure 3.3 of AS/NZS 2890.1:2004.
The only obstruction into the sight line area is a shrub within the adjoining property,
Annabelle’s, at 35 Hastings Street. it appears that this shrub is regularly pruned which shoutd
be encouraged to continue. Alternatively should Council not consider this acceptable it
would need to be removed (although being on an adjoining property this is outside the control
of the applicant). {t should also be noted that the driveway for the proposed new
