Town Planning Report - 3 Grady Street Kin Kin

                 supporting services. In doing so, the development enhances the village’s ability to
                 function effectively as a community hub for residents and visitors, satisfying PO1.

            o    PO2 - The dwelling house also responds to PO2 by contributing to residential land uses
                 to support the Hinterland Village. The dwelling and secondary dwelling supports the
                 existing and projected demographic profile, which includes one and two-person
                 households and residents on low to moderate incomes. The proposal provides
                 appropriately scaled residential accommodation that aligns with this profile and supports
                 ongoing housing diversity within the village.

            o    PO3 – The development positively contributes to the lifestyle and amenity values of the
                 Hinterland Village. The dwelling house maintains the established built form character,
                 respects surrounding residential uses, and provides a high level of on-site amenity
                 through appropriate setbacks, landscaping opportunities, and functional design, whilst
                 seeking to preserve he fundamental heritage values attributed to the existing St Lukes
                 Anglican Church. The development complies with PO3.

   •   Built Form and Streetscape - PO8 – The proposed dwelling house has been carefully designed
       to retain and respect the cultural heritage significance of the existing former church building. The
       heritage inventory sheet (see Attachment 3) describes the key design features to include the
       original timber form, rectangular footprint, gable roof, lancet-style openings, entry porch, inter-
       war bungalow detailing, timber cladding, and open setting. Consequently, the proposed design
       is responsive to the key design features to ensure compliance with AO8.1, which require
       development to retain buildings of heritage and townscape significance.

       Consistent with AO8.2, the proposed new works adopt a built form and material palette that is
       compatible with the existing heritage building without mimicking or reproducing its architectural
       style. This approach allows the original church to remain the principal visual element from Kin
       Kin School of Arts, towards Main Street, while ensuring that any new additions are subordinate,
       sympathetic, and clearly distinguishable as contemporary works.

       The new roof elements associated with the dwelling house incorporate traditional Queensland
       roof forms in accordance with AO8.3, using a mixture of gable pitched profiles and skillion roof
       design with appropriate roof pitch to complement but not mimic the existing St Lukes Anglican
       church roof form. The roof for the patio to the annex and the garage will be visible from Main
       street and provides a built form outcome that satisfies AO8.4. The design of the development
       reinforces the traditional architectural character that defines the Kin Kin Hinterland Village
       setting.

       The design of the proposed dwelling house and secondary dwelling aligns with AO8.5 by
       reflecting core aspects of the Queensland vernacular. The building incorporates lightweight
       materials, including timber, and utilises elevation above natural ground levels appropriate to site
       conditions. Outdoor living areas, including the proposed covered deck and shaded patio
       supports outdoor living and integrated with soft landscaping to the support the proposed
       development and maintain the soft, open character of the site and reinforce the setting of the
       heritage building.

   Overall, the proposal ensures the ongoing retention, visibility, and prominence of the St Lukes
   Anglican Church while facilitating a sensitive design to establish a consistent land use
