REPORT

4.3          Built form
The proposed building has design themes similar to the existing Bunnings store on the southern part of the
site. The concept design includes:
•     The proposal will be two storeys in height, comprising under croft car park and upper level bulk trade
      supplies area.
•     The building will comprise concrete panels, and upper and lower levels of the building will be expressed
      and distinguishable through the white on green colour scheme.
•     Canopies will be provided over entrances/exits to provide protection from the weather and provide
      articulation to the façade.
•     A six metre front setback will be provided (measured from the new frontage line after road widening).
•     Landscaping to be provided in the front setback will further soften the appearance of the building from
      the street.

4.4          Building height
The proposed building height of the development is 2 storeys.
This complies with PO8 of the Medium Impact Industry Code.
The proposed building height is also consistent with the building height of the recently approved
neighbouring development at 11 Vision Court.
This is demonstrated in Figure 5 which provides a snapshot of the proposed building elevation in relation to
the approved development at 11 Vision Court.

4.5          Landscaping
Landscaping will be provided within the six metre front setback. This area will also serve a bio-retention
function.
The proposal will result in landscaping provision across the entire site of 7,827.19m2. This equates to 14.5%
of the overall site area.

4.6          Car parking
A total of 57 spaces are proposed within the lower level car parking area with an additional 6 parallel light
vehicle loading bays within the upper level.
The proposed supply exceeds the planning scheme requirement for parking as demonstrated in the table
below.
