    and nearby properties. This includes the provision of a noise attenuation fence
    along the western side of the development that has been incorporated to protect
    the amenity of users of the proposed visitor accommodation. The fence to be
    screened by landscaping in order to ensure a reasonable visual amenity outcome
    is achieved.

Character and function of the David Low Way (O2)

42. Significant landscaping is proposed to the David Low Way frontage, which will
    maintain the vegetated character of this roadway. The vegetation to be provided
    is to contain trees of a size that will contribute positively to the streetscape when
    viewed off the site.

43. The proposed development will not adversely impact upon the function, capacity
    and efficiency of the David Low Way. An appropriate amount of carparking is to
    be provided on site and external works undertaken to maintain the function of
    David Low Way (these issues are discussed further below).

Built Form (O3 & O4)

44. The proposed development will have low site impact and has been designed to
    integrate with the natural land form. The proposed buildings will be single storey
    and less than 8m in height from the existing natural ground level. The proposed
    atrium structure at the David Low Way frontage has been specially designed to
    activate the street and provide direct and covered access for patrons.

45. Due to the low lying nature of the site, the proposed built form will not be
    imposing and is mostly below the level of David Low Way. The proposed atrium
    structure is located over the outdoor dining areas, with stairs and platforms
    providing access. There is also considerable landscaping that has been
    incorporated into this structure in the form of planter boxes and vertical planting.

46. This atrium structure is more than 8m in height from the finished ground level,
    but is about 5.5m in height from the existing street level. The remainder of the
    development is substantially less than 8m in height. Consequently, the
    development is low rise and is consistent with the built form in the immediate
    locality.

47. The provision of the pedestrian platform area and access to the site provides
    direct integration with the existing pedestrian crossing that links to the
    Neighbourhood Centre.

Setbacks (O5)

48. The proposed building has been specifically designed with street activation in
   mind, which means that the front atrium structure and landing area is adjacent to
   the David Low Way frontage. The main façade of the building is setback about
   6m from this frontage and is setback about 31m from the unnamed roadway. The
   proposed building has about a 1.5m setback to the adjoining Hotel carpark along
   the northern boundary of the site. The roof extends to the northern boundary to
   provide cover to the service and amenities area.
