2 Emerald Planning Report

3.0 PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT DETAILS
On the vacant land it is proposed to build a 2 storey Commercial Building for Business
Uses in line with the zoning. This application seeks maximum flexibility for the tenant
uses.

The public frontage of the building at Emerald Street has an upper level balcony with
recessed shopfront below behind landscaping. A cantilevered awning provides weather
protection from pedestrians and ties the building form to nearby commercial premises.
Carparking is located at ground level under the building with the only vehicular access
being from Wimmers Lane, the lowest order road.
