Planning Report Chalet & Co - 12.03.18

                                        MCU to establish Entertainment and Dining Business - Type 1 Food and Beverage

                                                                                    1 Tingira Crescent, Sunrise Beach




Existing landscaping and aesthetic treatments maintain a satisfactory level of acoustic and visual amenity for
surrounding properties and patrons of the café. The proposed dining configuration enables patrons to enjoy
the natural low-key appeal of the locality.

    8.5.2          Eastern Beaches Locality Code
Comment: The proposal is consistent with the specific outcomes outlined in Table 7.14 of the Eastern Beaches
Locality Code. Whilst the existing and proposed café use is identified as an inconsistent use in the Attached
Housing Zone, the proposed development is consistent with the overall outcomes for the Eastern Beaches
Locality.

The current non-conforming use has been operating from the premises for approximately 20 years. As a
patrolled beach with community facilities, Sunrise Beach is a popular destination for both local residents and
tourists. Chalet & Co is the only café within close proximity to these community facilities. The scale of Chalet &
Co is fitting to its coastal context and does not pose any adverse impacts to adjoining land uses

    8.5.3          Advertising Devices Code
Comment: The proposal is consistent with the specific outcomes outlined in Table 14-46 of the Advertising
Devices Code. Located on the front of the both café façade is an existing sign. The sign presents minimal visual
clutter and does not adversely impact on the visual amenity of the surrounding coastal aesthetic.

No additional external signage is proposed. Internal and way finding signage will be designed and positioned as
to not adversely impact on surrounding uses.

    8.5.4          Building Removal, Relocation and Demolition Code
Comment: The proposal is consistent with the specific outcomes outlined in Tables 14-42 and 14-43 of the
Building Removal and Demolition Code. No building removal, relocation or demolition is proposed.

    8.5.5          Building Works Code

Comment: The proposal is consistent with the specific outcomes outlined in Tables 14-44, 14-45, 14-46 and
14-47 of the Building Works Code. The current nonconforming use and the proposed café operate from an
existing building. Weather protection is provided to the patrons within the outdoor dining area with the
provisions of large umbrellas which are not permanent and are taken in at the completion of each day’s
trading.

No changes to the utilities or site infrastructure, or gross floor area are proposed. The existing building
complements the casual coastal amenity of the locality.

    8.5.6          Detached House Driveways Code
Comment: The proposal does not include any changes to the current infrastructure or the addition of a
driveway.
