Response to Info Request - Planning Response MCU18-0015 & RAL18-0001 · MCU18/0015

   Response – Included with the Architectural Plans at Attachment 1 are the 3D perspectives
   produced from Laguna Bay and the adjoining pathway reserve. In respect of the National Park
   lookout, below is a photo taken from this vantage point where it can be observed that the subject
   site is not visible from this location as it actually sits under the hill. Therefore it was not necessary
   to provide a render from this location.




   Laguna Bay – Plan DD-12 of the architectural plan series shows the dotted outline of the proposed
   units, noting that the units sit behind a tract of vegetation existing outside the boundaries of the
   subject site such that the development will not be visible from this view point.


   Pathway – Plan DD-13 of the architectural plan series shows an indicative render of the subject
   site from one section of the pathway noting that vegetation will be retained in the pathway reserve
   with a trellised fence and landscaping to be provided within the site boundaries to ensure the
   green character of this area is maintained. It is noted that existing trees to be retained in the
   pathway reserve are not shown in this render for clarity (i.e. to show the built form and fencing
   outcome clearly), however in reality the built form will in fact be buffered to a greater extent by
   this vegetation as well as by the trellis vegetation once it grows to maturity. A section of this
   interface is also included with the Landscape Concept Package at Attachment 2.


   In addition to this indicative render of the development from the adjoining pathway, several
   sections have been produced to show the proposed development at various intervals along this
   pathway (Sections B-F). These sections (when read in conjunction with the site plan) show the
   alignment of the pathway within the adjoining pedestrian reserve and how it interfaces with the
   development. These plans show that at the very minimum a 1.5m wide landscape strip is able to
   be accommodated between the proposed development and the public pathway but in most
                                                                                     P: 07 5452 5207
