ATTENTION: ANDREW GAFFNEY

Dear Andrew,

RE:    RESPONSE TO INFORMATION REQUEST – CHANGE APPLICATION UPON LAND LOCATED AT
       20 PEREGIAN ESPLANADE, PEREGIAN BEACH (COUNCIL REFERENCE MCU10/2113.03
       MCU10/2113).

We write in relation to the abovementioned application and Council’s Information Request dated 08 May
2026.

Pursuant to section 13.2 of the Development Assessment Rules under the Planning Act 2016, we provide
the following response to Council’s Information Request.

Plans and Documentation


 It is unclear if the proposal has calculated Site Cover and Plot ratio based on the total site area.

 Information Required

 1.   Provide an updated Site cover and Plot ratio assessment for the entire approved Dual occupancy site (i.e. Lot
      1 and Lot 2 on SP269260), demonstrating compliance with the maximum 40% site cover and maximum
      0.4:1 plot ratio, supported by updated plans and calculations.


Response:
As requested by Council, updated site cover and plot ratio calculations have been prepared to include the
entirety of the site, specifically Lots 0, 1 & 2 on SP269260. As shown in the enclosed Amended Architectural
Proposal Plans prepared by Shaun Lockyer Architects, the proposed site cover is 300.10m2, equating to
approximately 37.9%, and is therefore compliant with the prescribed maximum of 40% site cover as per
AO12 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code.

With respect to plot ratio, it is noted that the architect does not have access to the floor plans for the existing
structure on Lot 1. However, a conservative estimate of the gross floor area (GFA) for this unit based on a
combination of survey information, historical record searches and aerial imagery has therefore been
adopted. Based on this approach, the combined GFA for Lots 1 & 2 is calculated at 273.7m2. When measured
against the total site area, an estimated plot ratio of 0.34:1 is achieved.

Based on the above, the proposed development complies with Acceptable Outcomes AO12 & AO13 of the
Medium Density Residential Zone Code.
