        ii.     The proposal includes a gate at the boundary which will result in vehicles
                accessing the site blocking either the footpath or the traffic lanes or both;
       iii.     There is no passing opportunity between the front boundary and the car
                parking located at the rear ground floor.

Provide revised plans that indicate:

       (a)     The access driveway located clear of any existing infrastructure or indicate
               on the plan any relocated infrastructure,
       (b)     The reconfiguration of the existing on-street carparking that does not result
               in the loss of spaces.
       (c)     The gate relocated within the site sufficient to allow a vehicle to wait within
               the site (minimum 6m).
       (d)     A passing opportunity between the front boundary and the carparking area.
               It is recommended that the passing opportunity (5.5m wide) be provided
               near the front boundary.

Response
The proposed development has been reviewed and recommended changes have been
made. Please refer to the attached amended drawings.

3ia)         The proposed driveway has been located to the site’s western boundary. This
             location provides suitable separation between neighbouring driveways and
             enhancement of the built form which results in a visually appealing amenity to
             the street frontage. To accommodate the driveway at this location the existing
             power pole will be relocated and an application has been lodged with Energex
             for its removal. The water meter will also be relocated. The sluice valve (SV)
             will not be impacted upon and will remain. The Telstra pit is unlikely to be
             impacted and if required the cover can be replaced with a lid suitable to cater
             for vehicles loads. Please refer to attached drawing SD.201 S3 for details.

3i (b) On-street parking is provided on Gympie Terrace in the vicinity of the subject
       site. There are two spaces along the site frontage. The proposed access
       driveway location on Gympie Terrace will result in the removal of one on-
       street parking space, however the closure of the existing property access will
       allow for another on-street parking space to be line marked in its place. The
       proposed development therefore does not result in a loss of on-street vehicle
       parking spaces. Car parking spaces will comply with AS2890.5 Figure 2.1 for
       on-street parallel parking. Please refer to the attached concept plan provided
       by RoadPro regarding on-street parking relocation arrangements.
