Dear Georgina,

INFORMATION RESPONSE - DEVELOPMENT PERMIT FOR A MATERIAL
CHANGE OF USE (DWELLING HOUSE) AT 5 PARK CRESCENT, SUNSHINE
BEACH (LOT 452 RP48112)

Further to Council’s Information Request issued 24 March 2025, we now respond in full to the item
raised. In support of this response, please find enclosed revised Proposal Plans prepared by Aboda
Design Group.

Please find below the response to each of the items raised by Council:

Item 1

Provide increased setback to the 3rd storey i.e., reduce the size of the terrace.

Response: Please refer to the revised Proposal Plans. The front setback of the Upper Level terrace
(balustrade) has been increased from 7.6m to 8.9m, and the spa and planter has been removed. The
proposal achieves the average of the two neighbouring properties (9.7m (western adjoining property) and
8m (eastern adjoining property), with the average being 8.85m). Due to the projection of the Main Level
roof below, which satisfies the 6m setback requirement, the Upper Level terrace facing the street cannot
be viewed from the street, and therefore presents as two storeys. The building wall and roof on the
Upper Level is setback >10 metres from the front boundary. The proposed encroachments of the terraces
are not roofed, and provide a mix of glass balustrading and balustrading with natural finishes, such that it
reduces the bulk and scale of the proposal, and does not obstruct view corridors. The extent of the
terrace has been reduced, and is considered to complement the surrounding built form.
