   Outdoor areas including balconies are located to the front of the site adjacent to the Pacific
     Avenue road reserve;
   The internal areas adjacent to the rear boundary include a garage, ensuites, laundry and a
     bedroom which will generate limited noise;
   The dwelling unit has a single lock up garage with space for a second vehicle to park in front
     and therefore complies with the Driveways and Carparking Code requirement for 2 car
     parking spaces; and
   The unit also has its own dedicated waste storage area.
It is noted that the applicant has proposed a suite of conditions which are to be imposed on
prospective tenants. The applicant advises that these measures include:
