    Access constraints based on the busy location of   The proposal can accommodate adequate sight
    the Maple Street crossover                         lines to allow for safe entry and exit to the site from
                                                       Maple Street. Based on anticipated vehicle
                                                       movements the access arrangement is considered
                                                       acceptable
    Inadequate on-site car parking provision           Following the public notification process the proposal
                                                       has since been amended to ensure there is no
                                                       shortfall of on-site car parking, with the proposal
                                                       meeting the planning scheme requirement of 24
                                                       spaces
    Limited on-street parking availability             While on-street parking may be limited, the proposal
                                                       has sought to balance the need for on-street parking
                                                       through the provision of 8 angle spaces off Maple
                                                       Street and while a net loss of 1 on-street parking
                                                       space is proposed, the on-site parking provision
                                                       should adequately address parking demand
                                                       generated by the proposal and not unreasonably
                                                       impact on-street parking availability
