Figure 2 - Building approval and 'as constructed’ and proposed mezzanine layout.

      • Transform the approved mezzanine into an ensuite and bedroom. This is not increasing the number
          of bedrooms on site, as the size of the living and dining area is increasing on the lower level and
          the bedroom is moving to the mezzanine. This also utilises the northern aspect for the living area.

      • A new window to the western elevation 1.7m above the FFL of the mezzanine to avoid overlooking
          and provide better cross flow ventilation.

      • The overall height of the development is reduced due to the round roof replaced with a continuing
          pitched roof to the northern side where the dormer window is located.

In support of the request for the plans to be considered generally in accordance with TPC 1528, the following
key matters are provided for Council’s consideration:

      • The use is not changing.

      • No increase to the number of bedrooms onsite.

      • No increase to the size of the approved mezzanine.

      • The proposal seeks to provide head height to the full extent of the approved mezzanine rather
          than having a low ceiling to the edges.
