The Building Code of Australia (BCA) requirement for PWD parking is ‘1 per 100 spaces’, noting that total of
six (6) PWD spaces are provided which is compliant with the BCA requirement.

The above-mentioned parking reduction factors are considered appropriate considering the following:

•      Resort Complex – The car parking rate of 0.5 space per room has been adopted for hotel room, which is
       conservative, based on the review of the other Council rate and similar approved development tabulated
       in Table 4-2.
