               Figure 14 – Site Cover Calculations of surrounding Tourist Accommodation zone buildings




                      Figure 15 – Soft Landscaping calculations and proposed verge landscaping




The proposal also includes significantly more landscaping than the 10% required by the Visitor
Accommodation Code and integrated street landscaping, resulting in a building sitting in a
landscaped setting. Although the proposal includes a 50% site cover, there is more than double the
required landscaping providing a building in a landscaped setting and allowing adequate room for
parking, manoeuvring and outdoor dining for the food and drink offerings.
A comparison of other existing buildings within the Tourist Accommodation zone code also
demonstrate an exceedance of the 45% requirement (including the existing building). The design is
of a scale which is less than the surrounding developments and an improvement to the streetscape
in accordance with the relevant performance outcomes of the code.
