Refuse Application No. MCU19/0016 for the following reasons: 1. The proposal is in conflict with the assessment benchmarks of the State Planning Policy as it proposes development in an Erosion Prone Area and Natural Hazard Area and presents an unacceptable risk to people and property from coastal processes, including the projected impacts of climate change. 2. The proposal is contrary to the provisions of the Planning Scheme in that it proposes development: a. in the Landslide Hazard Area thereby placing people and property at risk and does not maintain the natural processes and protection function of land forms and vegetation contrary to the provisions of the Natural Hazards Overlay Code. b. in the Coastal Protection Area extending seaward of the Coastal Building Line and is likely to adversely impact upon natural coastal processes contrary to the requirements of the Natural Resources Code. c. which does not protect the dunal area and natural environmental nor maintain the safety of people and works contrary to the Overall Outcomes for the Eastern Beaches Locality. 3. The proposal is contrary to the provisions of the draft Planning Scheme in that it proposes development: a. in the Coastal Protection Area extending seaward of the Coastal Building line and does not allow for natural fluctuations of the coast and foreshore to occur, including allowance of climate change. b. which has not been sited to minimise the risk from coastal processes as the development has not been located as far landward as practicable to ensure people and property are not at risk from coastal hazards and avoid the need for additional coastal protection works. 3.4. Recent modelling carried out by the Council indicates significant erosion is likely to occur in the future which may threaten life and property should the proposed development proceed. Page 1 of 6
