O26. Our client acknowledges the proposed use in inconsistent within the Detached Housing Zone, however this case is
unique and Council’s support is warranted. The existing detached house is to remain and the physical use of the site will not
change as a result of this approval. As previously mentioned the existing detached house was recently inherited and is now
jointly owned by three families. The house is to remain part of the family trust and this application only intends to create 3
separate dwellings within the structure of the existing house, so all three families can continue to use the house and still
maintain privacy. Council’s restriction of Multiple Housing Type 4 within the detached housing zone is to ensure;

          the area remains with a low impact, low density development form of domestic scale;
          a high level of residential amenity;
          building styles befitting the character of the locality and which responds to and are integrated with, site
          characteristics including slope, vegetation and water frontage where applicable; and
          landscaped settings consistent with the character of the locality.

We note that the proposed Material Change of use for Multiple Housing type 4 maintains the existing detached house. No
changes to the external framework of the existing house are proposed, with only minor internal building works required as part
of this application. The proposal will ensure the area retains its low impact, low density form of domestic development,
maintaining a suitable scale and a high level of residential amenity. Furthermore, retention of the existing detached house will
ensure the existing character of the locality is unchanged, with no removal of vegetation, inhibition of views and vistas or
degradation of overall landscaping.

The approval of this application should be supported as the overall intent of the Detached Housing Zone is complied with.
