 Table 5 Site characteristics
 Existing land use               Two dwellings, garden areas, vegetation.
 Area and dimensions             Area of 9,677m2 with maximum linear dimensions of approximately
                                 210m X 70m.
 Frontage and access             Frontage of approximately 250m to David Low Way.
                                 Access is proposed some 30m south of the current shared driveway
                                 access into the site to improve safety and sight distances.
 Topography and views            The land slopes northward to Burgess Creek and eastwards to the
                                 beach and coastal dunal systems.
                                 The proposed development pad is an elevated, relatively flat area with a
                                 difference in height from the southern building envelope for proposed
                                 Lot 716 to the northern building envelope of proposed Lot 711 of about
                                 4m.
                                 Expansive views from the development pad are available to the coast
                                 and ocean.
                                 The vegetation along the approximate 10m wide strip adjoining the road
                                 reserve is intended to be rehabilitated and preserved under covenant.
                                 This will effectively screen dwellings from David Low Way.
 Neighbourhood character         Low key coastal residential at generally lower density.

                                 pad.
