                                            It should also be noted that the
                                            proposed built form is generally
                                            compliant with the medium density
                                            zoning planning intent in terms of
                                            building height, setbacks, site cover/
                                            plot ratio and landscaping.

AO7.2 Buildings and structures have a       Complies – Generally, the
scale and building height consistent with
development on adjoining and
                                            development is consistent with the
surrounding land                            scale and building height of other
                                            developments in the surrounding
                                            area. A number of larger scaled 2-3
                                            storey commercial buildings are
                                            situated 100m south on the corner of

                                            Treasure Cove.

                                            The proposed development is also
                                            considered to be consistent in
                                            keeping with scale of the commercial
                                            development existing on 95 Eumundi

                                            It should be noted the area will
                                            continue to transition to medium
                                            density development, and as such,
                                            the development is consistent with
                                            the low-rise medium density intent
                                            anticipated for the immediate area.

AO7.3 Buildings and structures preserve     Complies – The development has
the amenity of adjoining land including
sunlight to neighbouring properties.
                                            been designed to preserve the
                                            amenity of neighbouring properties
                                            by incorporating building setbacks
                                            and building heights which minimise
                                            overshadowing or impacts on solar
                                            access.
AO7.4 Development respects the scale of     Complies – The development respects
surrounding vegetation and maximises
the opportunity for retention of
