          5 Development Proposal

          The proposed development provides for one new Sports Shed A, which is 14m long x 8m wide and
          2.7m high. The shed is to be located about 63.8m from the northern boundary and about 23m from
          the southeastern boundary (refer Figure 3). The Sport Shed is located to the southeast of the existing
          sewer easement (as shown) and to the northwest of the larger trees and irrigation dam. This shed
          provides for the storage of sports equipment, which is located close to the existing sports field in a
          location that has minimal impact on the limited land available. The existing sport shed is in disrepair
          and needs to be replaced.

          The Maintenance Sheds B and C are located 2m from the southeast boundary and to the south of
          the existing irrigation dam and larger trees on the site. Shed B is 11m long x 5.0m wide, 2.7m high
          near the boundary and pitching away from the boundary having a maximum height 3.96m. Shed C
          has a length of 10.5m, with a small addition having a length of 2.5m x 5m wide with the same height
          of 2.7m near the boundary and pitching to a height of 3.27m away from the boundary. The proposed
          sheds are separated by 3m of landscaping with 2m of landscaping provided along the boundary to
          buffer the built form (refer Figure 3). A copy of the elevation and floor plans drawings is provided
          with Attachments 2A, 2B & 2C.

          The new acoustic fencing along the northern boundary will replace the existing fencing having an
          overall length of about 235m and a similar height (refer photo - Attachment 4). The existing fencing
          needs replacing and has had numerous additions to the height in places and also adjoins hedging
          provided by some of the adjoining residential properties. The proposed fencing has a height of the
          about 2.4m.

          The new acoustic fence will provide for consistent fencing along the boundary and will minimise the
