AO7.1 Buildings and structures are no more than 8 metres in building height and do not exceed 2
storeys.
AO7.2 Where excavation is required, the maximum portion of the exposed external façade of the
building cannot exceed 8m in building height.
The proposed building exceeds the maximum building height for the area of 8m being 8.2m from
natural ground level, with the portion of exposed external façade of the building also exceeding
8m. This occurs on the northern side of the building for a short section of roof and is considered
reasonable given the site’s topography. It will also not visually dominate the street or the
surrounding area or unreasonably obscure views or result in overshadowing.
