Issue 5

Issue - External Works, Traffic, Access & Parking

Opal Street

In an effort to have no loss of on-street parking the proposed works include modifications to
the existing island and extending the on-street parking to the east to create a new space. It
is understood that the proposed works were designed to address comments in the pre-
lodgement meeting. It is Council’s preference that no changes are made to the existing
island and formation due to potential issues with the existing stormwater system (Council
and private) and the potential impacts on the adjoining residence due to headlights. This will
result in the loss of 2 on-street parking spaces. There appears to be sufficient space within
the site to provide spaces sufficient to compensate for any loss.

Diamond Lane

The development of the site will increase traffic movements along Diamond Lane and the
applicant is required to provide improvements. The improvements will consist of frontage
works to address drainage and a passing opportunity similar to that applied to the adjoining
development. The passing opportunity can be co-located with the proposed access
driveway.

Parking

The submitted plans indicate that each future building will include a 6m wide (double)

garage but no architectural plans have been provided. The plans also include 2 visitor

spaces located parallel to the access driveway between the units. The applicant must

demonstrate the proposed carparking is functional and in accordance with the relevant

standards.

Information Required

6 Provide amended plans that indicate no change to the formation in Opal Street
excluding any necessary line marking changes.

7 Provide amended plans that indicate the necessary improvements in Diamond Lane.
The works must include any features to address stormwater drainage and a passing
