Text shows just the words. Original shows the document exactly as it was published.

The following additional considerations are noted:

1.   No change is proposed to the positioning of the existing dwelling. The dwelling remains within the
     Lot 2 area, with minor protrusions into the exclusive use area in common property (which has always
     been the case).

2. The existing bungalow style and aesthetic of the dwelling will be maintained and rejuvenated.

3. The proposed design comprises 3 levels plus a loft with an overall height of RL 13.325m.The
   previously approved design comprised 4 levels plus a rooftop terrace with an overall height of RL
   14.4m such that the modifications are less impacting in terms of height and bulk.

The proposed changes are predominantly internal renovations aimed at enhancing the existing dwelling
by adding a lift to allow the owners and their guests to continue to use the beach house as they age,
opening up the main living area to enhance access to natural light, updating the kitchen and bathrooms
and creating additional storage space by the inclusion of a loft. Below is an assessment of how the
changes meet the minor change legislative provisions.

Changes to development approval documents
The proposed changes will not necessitate any changes to the conditions of approval. Only the plans
referenced in the approved plans list is required to be updated.
