3.0     Proposed Development Details

The following section discusses the key aspects of the development, which are considered to be the
primary planning matters for consideration in this application.

3.1     Development Summary

The development proposed within this application seeks approval for a dwelling house. Proposal Plans for
the development are included at Attachment 2 to this report. A snapshot of the key development
parameters for the proposed development are set out below in Table 4 as follows:

Table 4: Summary of development aspects
 Material change of use
 Building height                        2 storeys and a basement
 Gross floor area (GFA)                 477.57m2
 Site coverage                          321.96m2 or 52.69%
 Car parking                            A basement garage is proposed.
 Site access                            The site is accessed by a vehicle crossover from Noosa
                                        Parade.
 Setbacks                               Front Boundary – 4.5m
                                        Side Boundary (East) – 1.63m
                                        Side Boundary (West) – 1.51m
                                        Rear Boundary – 3m

3.2     Development Details

The following operational aspects of the development are set out and discussed further below:

  i.    Built form – The property is of a scale and bulk which is what is anticipated within the locality. The
        built form represents a dwelling that is setback appropriately from the road and adjoining
        premises. The built form allows a high amenity and privacy for future residents, street users and
        the neighbourhood. The proposed built form is sited and designed to be compatible and integrate
        with the street character, and in particular the newer properties located adjacent to the property.

  ii.   Site cover – The proposed site cover ensures the development is of a scale compatible to the
        surrounding development, has a low site impact to maximise the opportunity to retain natural
        elements (in particular the vegetation mapped at the rear of the site) and ensures the dwellings
        does not present an appearance of built to adjacent properties within vicinity of the site.

 iii.   Access configuration and Parking – The proposed dwelling will be accessed via a vehicle crossover
        to the eastern side of the frontage. The vehicle crossover is intended to be design and constructed
        within accordance of the Council Standard drawings (RS-049, RS-050 or RS-056). The dwelling
        house is afforded a double garage at ground level.
