PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                10 DECEMBER 2019




                                 Figure 2: New Fire Stairs Exit Render

The proposed stairs are considered a relatively minor addition, and do not dramatically change
the built form of the building. The stairs have been designed to taper down towards the rear of
the building to incorporate a screened waste storage area, and are to be clad with aluminium
battens to provide further articulation to the eastern façade of the building. The fire stair slightly
increases overall site cover, however the development still complies with site cover requirements
of the planning scheme. In addition, at a 1.7 metre setback, the stairs comply with setback
requirements under the planning scheme. The change is considered necessary and will improve
the safety of the residents onsite.
Waste Storage Area
A waste storage area is proposed in the south eastern corner of the building, along the southern
façade, providing room for the storage of six waste bins (refer to Figure 2, Figure 3 and Figure 4).
The proposed waste storage area is provided in order to comply with Waste Storage conditions
included in the original Development Permit.
