Comment: An assessment of the development codes has been undertaken. The code assessment
has determined that the proposed development complies with all relevant performance
outcomes. Where acceptable outcomes are not met, an alternative solution demonstrating
compliance with the corresponding performance outcome is provided (refer to Section 8.6
below).



7.5.1      RESIDENTIAL USES CODE


The key points to note from the assessment of the proposal against the Residential Uses Code
are summarised below:

              the entrance to the development is clearly visible from Doonella Street;

              a footpath through the development will provide pedestrian access to the residential
              units from Doonella Street. Access to the lift and stairs will also be clearly signposted
              from the basement;

              no bedroom windows are within 3m of the driveway and or the parking areas;

              plant and equipment will be located and screened to reduce its visual impact;

              fencing is proposed to provide privacy for the areas of private open space at ground
              floor level;

              the development will not adversely impact on the sunlight currently enjoyed by
              neighbouring properties. It should be noted that these properties are not in
              permanent residential use;

              the proposed access and car parking areas are conveniently located for residents;

              the visitor spaces will be provided in the basement, close to the lift and stairs, and will
              have unrestricted access;

              appropriate screening will be used to reduce the visual impact of the basement car
              parking from Doonella Street; and

              storage lockers are provided on the verandah/balcony of each unit.


Overall, it is considered that the proposed development complies with the relevant sections of
the Residential Uses Code.
