site details
Background
This is a retrospective application as the driveway is already constructed. The application was submitted as a result of Council investigating an enquiry (refer to ECM Document Set ID 20891446).
The width of the driveway (6.7m on the kerb) does not comply with Council’s Standard Drawing RS-049 and Specific Outcome O4 of the Detached House Driveways Code which requires 4.5m maximum driveway width outside the property. 
Notwithstanding, given that the on-street carparking implications are not significant; no services nor vegetation were affected; and that the driveway is already constructed, the decision to accept the wider driveway was made.
