               The corresponding Specific Outcome O4 states:
                      Buildings and other structures—
                      a) are low rise and present a building height consistent with structures on adjoining and
                      surrounding land;
                      b) have a maximum building height of 2 storeys;
                      c) do not visually dominate the street, surrounding spaces or the existing skyline;
                      d) preserve the amenity of surrounding land including access to sunlight;
                      e) respect the scale of surrounding vegetation; and
                      f) respond to the topography of the site and minimise cut and fill (eg. by stepping down the
                      slope or using suspended floor construction, for sloping sites).
               The proposed over height part of the building (clerestory roof) is centrally located above the
               building and setback 3.65 metres from the side boundaries (closest boundary). The proposed
               location of the height encroachment is sympathetic of surrounding spaces and the existing
               skyline. The 0.45 metre height variation will not detrimentally impact the amenity of surrounding
               properties in terms of blocking access to sunlight. The proposed clerestory roof form contributes
               articulation and character to the building (7 degree pitch) and provides positive natural lighting
               and cooling benefits internally.
               Setbacks
               The prescribed setbacks for the proposed duplex’ development is as follows:
                      Frontage:              6m
                      Side boundaries:       1.5m setback up to 4.5m height;
                                             2m setback between 4.5m - 7.5m height; and

                                                                                                      Page 9 of 24
