Dear Georgina,

INFORMATION RESPONSE - DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR A MATERIAL
CHANGE OF USE (DWELLING HOUSE) AT 12 CAPTAINS COURT, SUNRISE
BEACH (LOT 25 RP903822)

Further to Council’s Information Request issued 18 March 2026, we now respond in full to each of the
items raised.

In support of this response, please find enclosed revised Proposal Plans prepared by Suncoast Building
Design.

Please find below the response to each of the items raised by Council:

Item 1

Provide confirmation of the maximum building height from natural and finished ground
level.

Response: Please refer to the attached revised Proposal Plans prepared by Suncoast Building Design.
Drawing No. 21 and 22 shows a height blanket from both natural and finished ground level. There is a
minor encroachment of 305mm for the rooftop terrace, however, as previously noted, the adjoining
dwelling to the north is elevated above the subject dwelling, and will not adversely impact viewlines. A
response to the corresponding performance outcome (PO7) was provided in the original Town Planning
Assessment Report. Despite the minor encroachment, the proposal has been thoughtfully designed to
contend with, and respond to, the natural topography of the site.

Item 2

Provide supporting information to confirm to what extent the terrace will be visible from
David Low Way.

Response: On 23 March 2026, the applicant provided site photographs from David Low Way to
document the existing roofline (see images below). Notably, the adjoining property at 14 Captains Court
sits at a higher elevation than the subject site (RL 44.9). It is noted that the existing building on the
