Item 3.2: Apart from the eartier discussed balustrading, the building's height will
have no arguable impact on a neighbour (an infrequent resident) in the
middle unit of a block of 3 directly to the north-east. The proposed
spine wall would be only partially visible from the rear of that
neighbour's property , and splays down to roof height.

(Loss of that neighbour's daylight is an eroneous suggestion. )

Item 4: I presume the word 'balcony' is intended to read 'balustrading' (page
78).

I note that the current spine wall is documented at a height of 1.2 metres
above the rooftop, averaging some 767mm above the 8 metre height limit.
The speculation of an addition of 600mm to a height 1.8 metres would fall
short of the 10 metre mark by some 633mm.

The staircase was intended to be enclosed below roof access flights -
and with a glazed wall and door at the landing at Master Bedroom level.
This issue is dealt with later in this submission.

There was no suggestion in the application for enclosure of the rooftop
access stair, similarly no intention for a rooftop pergola.

It is my opinion that the height of the balustrading now being taken to issue is
inconsistent with previous assessments, and should not be any part of a basis for
refusal.

It is also within Council's discretion to allow the height limit to be exceeded. In this
instance, it is a small portion of the building which would, in reality, only affect the
property to the south-west - and these neighbours have not objected.

I also take issue with Engineering's condition of 'at least 6 covered off-street car
parking spaces' - which, while proposed by the documents, is double the
requirement of the Planning Scheme.

MEETING with TOWN PLANNING:
The meeting was constructive and exposed some of Council's real concerns. Asa
result, a number of areas have been revisited. These have been documented in the
form of revised drawings accompanying this letter.
PRIVACY and HEIGHT It was resolved that this issue should be attended to
in some degree from the aspect of the rear

neighbour.

The proposal now indicates the northwest balcony and spine wall
realigned to some 8.25 metres from the northwest boundary.
