Planning Statement to NSC

A review of the proposal against Specific Outcome O1 of the Code is detailed below:

      O1 Buildings and other structures are appropriately designed and sited to—
        a) provide amenity for users of the premises as well as preserve the visual and acoustic
        privacy of adjoining and nearby land uses;

          The proposed carport has been located at the front of the site within the front setback in a
          direct response to the steep slope of the site. The carport has been located off the side
          boundary to minimize impacts on the adjoining residence to the north and proposed
          landscaping an open structure. The carport is consistent with the character of the street
          which already contains six dwellings with garages in the front setback.

          b) preserve any existing vegetation that will buffer the proposed building from adjoining
          uses;

          The existing dwelling has been removed and minimal vegetation is located on site.

          c) allow for landscaping to be provided between buildings;

          The building has been designed to provide areas of landscaping along the side
          boundaries. A landscape concept plan is provided illustrating the landscape intent for the
          site.

          d) maintain the visual continuity and pattern of buildings and landscape elements within
          the street;

          The proposed carport is consistent with the existing pattern of garages located to the
          street front. The proposed carport and its location will provide a better outcome for the
          street by the ability to landscape between the proposed fence and street.

          e)for class 10a structures, do not visually dominate the street;

          The proposed carport is low key and of a minimalist, clean design that is consistent with
          the other garages approved in the street as demonstrated by the photographs below.
