51994.1435.01 Applicant's Response to Matters Raised 16.1.20

5. Applicant’s Response

Refer to the attached Ground Floor and First Floor plans (TP 1-00 and TP 1-01). The access to the pod seating
arrangement has been revised. The amended plans illustrate that the entire built form is contained within the
property boundary.

The landscaping palette proposed provides for ground, mid and canopy landscaping solutions with a mixture
of species to provide depth and contrast. The additional roof top plantings add a further depth and contrast
which ensures that the landscape presentation is not sedentary and formalised.

Species used will be those that are proven to survive in a coastal environment, minimising the requirement for
water. The redesign of the front façade of the building ensures a vibrant and active streetscape.


6. Information Required by Council - Windows

Council is concerned the proposed cantilever windows may conflict with pedestrian accessways,
landscaping and overhang the road reserve area.

Provide amended proposal plans that accurately demonstrate the proposed cantilever windows will not
project beyond the property boundaries; will not interfere or present issues with pedestrian pathways and
landscaping.


6. Applicant’s Response

The attached First Floor plan (TP 1.01) illustrates the proposed cantilever windows as being within the property
boundary. In their open position the cantilever windows will be at approximately 2.4 metres from the floor level
(refer to elevation and sectional drawings). The proposed window treatments create an active frontage and
enables interaction between pedestrians and diners.

Therefore, no issues are presented in terms of interference with pedestrians or patrons inside the premises.
