The proposal incorporates some minor reconfigurations to the floor plans of each level. It is noted that
the proposal seeks to maintain the following key development parameters as per the existing approved
plans:
● The gross floor area is maintained at 1,046m2;
● Plot ratio is maintained at 0.40:1;
● Site cover is maximum 40%;
● The proposal remains below the 8m height limit;
● The basement protrudes less out of the ground than the original plans;
● On-site landscaping has reduced slightly as follows:
○ Deep landscaping: 886.3m2 to 862.8m2;
○ Other landscaping: 519.7m2 to 506.3m2;
○ Total landscaping: 1,406m2 (53.9%) to 1,369.1m2 (52.52%);
○ Deep soil landscaping total percentage: 63.3% to 63.01%.
○ It is noted that AO10.1 of the Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code requires 40%
landscaping, 60% of which is soft landscaping. Despite the above minor reductions
proposed, the overall extent of landscaping is well above the minimum requirement. Note
that under Version 2 of the Planning Scheme, this requirement has not changed.
On the Basement Level, a minor reconfiguration of the building footprint to allow for the water storage
room, water tank and mechanical and electrical room. Whilst providing a setback encroachment of 4m in
lieu of the 6m requirement to the Martin Street frontage, the pool terrace on the Ground Level sits above
this encroachment and therefore does not result in any loss of deep landscaping.
The Ground Level and Level 1 both incorporate some minor floor plan reconfigurations. The Ground Level
also incorporates an increased pedestrian entry arbour setback as per Council’s plan annotation on the
approved plans, and refined internal pedestrian pathways.

JUSTIFICATION FOR PROPOSED CHANGE TO APPROVAL
The proposed change is considered to satisfy the definition of a Minor Change, as the proposed change

● Public notification to be triggered.
In determining whether the proposed Minor Change would result in a substantially different development,
the assessment manager must consider the individual circumstances of the development, in the context
of the change proposed. A change may be considered to result in a substantially different development if
any of the following criteria are not met for the proposed change:
4.1 Involves a new use.
The requested Minor Change does not involve a new use for the site. The proposal will be maintained for
8x Multiple Dwellings.
4.2 Results in the application applying to a new parcel of land.
No new land parcels are proposed to be included or excluded from the development.
4.3 Dramatically changes the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance.
The proposed changes will not result in change in the scale, bulk and appearance that is dramatically
different to the current built form to what has currently been approved. The proposal seeks to refine
design elements and finishes prior to construction commencing.
4.4 Changes the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended.
The proposed Minor Change does not affect the ability of the approved development to operate as
intended.
4.5 Removes a component that is integral to the operation of the development.

operation of the development.
4.6 Significantly impacts on traffic flow and the transport network, such as increasing traffic
to the site.
