Further Advice Response

Although a very small portion of the building presents as three storeys from the south, the proposal is
within the 8 metre height limit, which does not result in an unreasonable obstruction of view lines and
does not result in overshadowing of adjoining neighbours. A low gradient roof pitch is proposed to keep
building height and bulk to a minimum as the site falls away from the frontage. The proposal presents as
two storeys when viewed from Plover Street.

Letters of support have been obtained from both adjoining neighbours in relation to the side setback
encroachments. Apart from the media room, which is a solid wall with no openings and has a length of
approximately 4.0m, the remainder of the side setback intrusions relate to eaves or planters. The setback
intrusions are not considered to adversely compromise the amenity of adjoining neighbours or cause any
privacy/overlooking concerns.

Item 2

Provide amended plans that comply with Acceptable Outcome AO5 and PO4 of the Coastal
Protection and Scenic Amenity overlay code (acknowledging only the stairs are accepted).

Item 3

Provide amended plans that do not include retaining structures on the rear boundary.

Response: The Proposal Plans have been amended to remove the portion of deck along the southern
side of the existing pool to be setback 6.0 metres from the rear boundary in accordance with PO4 of the
Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity Overlay Code.

The pool deck to the northern side of the pool has been maintained (this section of deck can be
cantilevered if required). We note that this portion of the deck is less than 1.0 metre above ground level,
and does not go forward of the line of the existing pool as discussed on site. Refer to Figures 1 and 2
below showing this outcome. There is already an elevated pool and deck in this location, as we seek to
remove the elevated deck and replace it with a much lower deck very close to ground level.

Landscaping can be provided in the rear portion of the site where practical in accordance with PO5/AO5
of the Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity Overlay Code.
