Letter - Information Request Response - 06JUN2022 - TN

(1) dwelling lot) while remaining low density and scale in accordance with the outcomes sought for the Low
density residential zone.

    d) development provides a high standard of amenity for residents and other users of the rear lot and
       adjoining properties;

The proposed access easement to the rear lot is located along the existing and future side boundary so as not
to traverse through a large portion of future lot 5. Boundary fencing or the like can be provided in order to
protect the future amenity of lot 5 and adjoining 22 Ghostgum Court. Furthermore, the proposed rear lot 4
is suitably sized and shaped to appropriately accommodate a dwelling house with compliant setbacks and
separation to adjoining lots, thus maintaining the amenity for existing and future residents.

    e) the lot is large enough to accommodate anticipated land uses including car parking and
       manoeuvring;

Rear lot 4 proposes a land size of over 700m2 which is suitable to accommodate a compliant dwelling house
and vehicle manoeuvring within the site. Given the site is for residential uses, future development on the site
will incorporate a dwelling house with an associated garage or carport providing adequate car parking on site.

    f)   development is not detrimental to the use and amenity of adjoining lots through loss of privacy,
         sunlight or breezes once buildings are constructed;

Future lots are proposed to be suitably sized to allow for adequate setbacks between future dwellings on the
proposed new lots, as demonstrated in Figure 1 below, protecting amenity, privacy and access to sunlight and
ventilation.

    g) vehicular access to rear lots will not have a detrimental impact on lots adjoining the access strip due
       to excessive noise, light, dust, stormwater runoff and the like;

The proposed access strip is located along the boundary to existing 22 Ghostgum Court and proposed lot 5.
Access to the rear lot 4 allows vehicles to enter the site via a driveway located near a common adjoining lot
boundary, not dissimilar to an access arrangement for a lot with a full road frontage. Suitable fencing to
reduce potential impacts of light and noise can be provided between the proposed and existing lot boundaries
and may be conditioned by Council accordingly.

    h) access arrangements do not adversely affect the safety and efficiency of the road from which access
       is gained;

Access to the proposed rear lot is located towards the end of a cul-de-sac street which has negligible traffic
demand. The proposed access arrangements as outlined by the attached letter prepared by Q Traffic is sought
as an extension to the crossover / vehicle turnaround within the road verge and allows for clear sightlines and
safe and efficient access to and from the site.

    i)   their creation does not prejudice the anticipated development of adjoining land.

The subject site and surrounding sites are located within the Low density residential zone, intended for low
intensity and low scale residential uses which the surrounding sites are currently utilised as. Creation of a rear
lot in this location is consistent with the character of the surrounding locality and consistent with the intent
of the Low density residential zone and Reconfiguring a lot code. As such, a rear lot within this site does not
prejudice anticipated development of adjoining land.
