                proposed      which      requires   partial                  influences the height of the proposed
                infringement to achieve the design.                          extensions.

                g) Whether existing vegetation will buffer                   4 Existing vegetation on adjoining
                the proposed building and decrease the                       properties and the site will buffer the

                i) Whether adjoining land accommodates                       4 The proposal will have no significant
                buildings of similar height and the                          impacts on the character of the area.
                proposed building is in keeping with the
                character of the area.

               2.3    BUILDING COMMENTS
               The Manager of Building has no objection to the proposed modification to building height.
               A separate application has also been made to vary the 6-metre front setback requirement of
               the Building Code of Australia, to allow an attached garage to intrude into the 6-metre front
               setback area, within 1.5 metres of McAnally Drive, Sunshine Beach. The Manager of
               Building Service advises that the works are acceptable and will be approved under delegation.
               3      CONCLUSION
               The proposed modification to building height in metres will have minimal impact on the
               surrounding amenity, as the extension is in context with the existing building, do not extend
               beyond the dwelling’s ridgeline and slope towards the site’s frontage to a height of 6.5
               metres. The extensions will maintain a low rise appearance from the street and neighbouring
               properties, with existing vegetation visually softening the built form.
