Planning Statement · 51987.2898.03

The earthworks associated with removal of the landscape mound will be dealt with under a separate
application. The earthworks are relatively minor and stormwater will not be significantly affected by
the proposal extension.

5. CONCLUSION
The proposed changes to the approval and existing dwelling results in a building that is consistent
with the character of the area and that better respects the locality and beachfront character. The
renovations and new green roofs will soften the existing built form and reduce the visibility of the
dwelling on the surrounding area.

This application can be supported on a number of grounds as previously detailed. These grounds
include:
               The proposed changes improve the external appearance of the building through the
                use of green roofs and covered decks.
               The changes to the dwelling are located within and on the existing footprint.
               The proposed changes are consistent with the character of the area which includes
                substantial dwellings and unit developments.
               The contemporary design utilises the form of the existing building.
               The proposed form of the design is consistent the scale of development that has
                occurred in the surrounding area.
