   2. Provide sightline and overlooking assessment between areas of private
      open spaces of adjoining properties.
   3. Provide revised/additional sections to include the adjoining premises-built
      form to assist in assessment against Performance outcome PO19.


The roof terraces are proposed within the middle of the building to integrate into the roof
form, as well as prevent overlooking into adjoining properties. A 1.8m roof terrace screen
is provided along the northern edge of the terrace to prevent overlooking of the units
adjoining, while still complying with the minimum roof height provisions. It is noted, the
architectural practice manual seeks for an ‘eye height’ of 1.62m for screening devices.

Detailed section plans with the plots of the adjoining building heights are also included
demonstrating there are no overlooking of adjoining windows or outdoor living areas.




                                                                              Page 2 of 5

   4. Provide an assessment against the above-mentioned Acceptable outcomes
      and amend the design as necessary.

Additional plantation shutter screening devices are provided on two sides of the rear
balcony to ensure no overlooking of adjoining outdoor living areas within 10m. The
shutters are not considered an enclosure of the rear deck, as it will be not certified as a
habitable space and needs to be appropriately waterproofed for outdoor drainage.
Additional conditions may be applied to ensure the space is not enclosed.




   5. Provide revised plans, provide greater articulation to the terrace/deck to
      demonstrate the terraces do not contribute to the site’s plot ratio.

The plans have been amended to strictly comply with the birds eye view of the site cover
calculation.




                                                                              Page 3 of 5
