Development Assessment Report

PROJECT URBAN – 22070                                                                   October 2022



The roof terrace/garden complies with performance outcome PO20 as the developments overall
roof from will contribute positively to the local skyline; complement the character of the locality
and the topography of the site; and will not create opportunities for overlooking the private open
space or internal spaces of neighbourhood properties.

AO24.1 Cut or fill is less than 1.5 metres in depth relative to the ground level

Performance Solution:
Due to the slope of the site cut and fill of more than 1.5m in depth is required to achieve an
integrated development outcome. This is however largely achieved as built form modification
rather than any substantial external retaining structures, with all external boundary interfaces
being less than 1.5m in depth as required by the acceptable outcome.       All earthworks will be
undertaken in accordance with the attached Geotechnical Investigation.

The proposed works will achieve compliance with performance outcome PO24 as the
development outcome will not impact on landscape amenity and will have minimal impact on the
natural landform of the site.

7.7     DEVELOPMENT CODES


While the application is assessable against the entire planning scheme the following
development codes are considered most applicable to the proposed development:

•     Visitor Accommodation Code;
•     Business Activities Code;
•     Works Codes
      o Driveways and Parking Code;
      o Earthworks Code;
      o Existing Services Code;
      o Fire Services for Common Private Title Code;
      o Landscaping Code;
      o Sustainable Building Design Code;
      o Transport Code;
      o Water Quality and Drainage Code; and
      o Waste Management Code.

Comment: An assessment of the Visitor Accommodation and Business Activities codes are
included within Attachment 1. The code assessment has determined that the proposed
development complies with all relevant performance outcomes. Where acceptable outcomes are
not met, a performance solution demonstrating compliance with the corresponding performance
outcome is provided and discussed in section 8.7.1 below.

The assessment against the relevant Works Codes has determined that the proposed
development generally complies with all of the development codes. Further details will be
