           •    The building height encroachment will not impact the privacy, views or access to sunlight of
                surrounding non-industrial premises;
           •    The proposed development responds to the topography of the site, accounting for the dip at the
                rear of the site in the required earthworks; and,
           •    As detailed in Section 3.3 (Design and Built Form) of this report, the proposed development is
                well articulated with strong horizontal and vertical elements included in the design of the
                buildings to provide interest to the street.

5.3.2 Acceptable Outcome AO36 – Front Fencing Setback
57.   Acceptable Outcome AO36 of the Code seeks that fencing on any frontage is setback an average of 2
      metres provided that no part of the fencing is within 1 metres of the property boundary. For the main
      part of the frontage (eastern extent) the fence is setback between 3m-7m from the front boundary of the
      site. The security fence that extends along the western extent of the frontage is located directly on the
      front boundary of the site as shown in Figure 9 below.

58.   This is appropriate on the basis that the adjacent verge widens (approx. 7m) in this location for the
      purpose of a pump station. As such, the fence will not directly interface with Taylor Court and will not
      impact the visual amenity of the street. Further, this section of chain wire fence is existing, and is not
      proposed to be replaced.

59.   Overall, the proposal complies with PO36 as the erected security fencing on the western extent of the
      street frontage is in keeping with the surrounding area and does not have an adverse impact upon the
      appearance of the streetscape given the presence of the pump station in front. It is also noted that the
      proposed frontage landscapes behind will be visible through the chain wire fence, enhancing the amenity
      of the streetscape where the frontage is visible behind the pump station.
