               2. The change is considered minor, the location of the PMT the associated easement on lot 2 does
               not impede access or other services.

               3.     CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme. The
               requested changes to the conditions do not raise any significant issues and are therefore
               supported. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 76 of the Planning Act 2016.
