                                                                                                              proposal report




The refuse storage area is setback more than 10m from the frontage and screened from the street
and adjoining properties by landscaping, with a bin wash area within the refuse enclosure.
Mechanical plant and equipment will also be integrated into the roof design so as not to impact on
the visual amenity of the area.

Parking and Loading

The design provides for the minimum number of carparking spaces and bicycle parking spaces as
outlined in the table below:

 Minimum Parking Rate                                              Parking Provided                   Complies
 Industrial Business Type 2                                        19 Spaces                          Yes
 1 per 30m2 up to 150m2 (5 spaces) +
 1 per 50m2 between 150m2 & 500m2 (7 spaces) +
 1 per 100m2 >500m2 (3 spaces - 293m2)

 Ancillary Dwelling Units
 1 per unit (4 spaces)

 Total = 19 Spaces
 Loading Bay for Single Unit Truck (12m x 3.6m)                    SRV Loading Bay (6.6m x 3.5m)      Alternative Solution
 1 bicycle space per 100m2                                         8 bicycle parking bays (4 hoops)   Yes

Eight (8) bicycle parking spaces are proposed at the front of the site near the pathway entrance, with
toilets and change rooms within each of the factory units. Carparking is designed and sited infornt of
each factory unit, with temporary parking and access also available via a roller door in front of each
factory unit.

Although the site does not propose a loading bay for a single unit truck 12m x 3.6m in size,
considering the relatively small size of the factory units it is anticipated only smaller delivery vehicles
would visit the site using a small SRV. Council has allowed for similar access for other small factory
units on the adjoining site to the west and across the road to the north.

The proposed layout allows for servicing by small trucks at the front of the site without having to drive
down the entire site for quick deliveries, while also allowing for these vehicles to manoeuvre and
leave the site in a forward gear. This is consistent with the associated Specific Outcomes of the
Driveways and Carparking Code with associated manoeuvring areas designed to be safe and
functional and meet the reasonable requirements of the particular land use and the surrounding area.

Ancillary Dwelling Unit
The proposed ancillary dwelling units are intended to be used by caretakers or employees
associated with the corresponding factory unit on the same premises. The gross floor area of each
unit does not exceed 150m2, is subordinate to the non-residential use, accessed through the non-
residential use; and will be occupied by the owner of the non-residential use or somebody employed
in the non-residential use.
