Note: due to existing fragmented ownership patterns, some proposed mixed<br />

use sites (such as in Hill Street Roseville) would require significant<br />

amalgamation to achieve additional FSR in accordance with Clause 6.4<br />

of the draft <strong>Ku</strong>-<strong>ring</strong>-<strong>gai</strong> LEP (Town Centres), to facilitate urban design<br />

excellence. To ensure the viability of mixed use development in such<br />

situations, a possible reduction in parking rates may be considered.<br />

Indicatively, this could be a reduction of 20%, although further detailed<br />

studies would need to be undertaken regarding the parking rate reduction<br />

to ensure no negative impact on the parking around the centre. It is<br />

recommended to accommodate the longer term parking needs (residents,<br />

employees) on-site and reduce the quantity of short term (retail, visitor)<br />

parking needs in centres where there is demonstrated spare short term<br />

capacity du<strong>ring</strong> peak times in the surrounding roads.<br />

Business and Office Development - Car Parking Rates<br />

The following parking rangs apply for office, business premises and<br />

retail, where the development is within 400 metres of a train station and<br />

within a commercial centre:<br />

* Parking provision at a rate of less than 1 per 45m 2 GFA may be<br />

considered if accompanied by firm and ongoing proposals to encourage<br />

alternative means of transport. This may include strategies such as:<br />

• transport Access Guides (TAG);<br />

• staff discount/subsidy towards public transport costs;<br />

• dedicated shuttle bus between the development and railway<br />

station;<br />

• adoption and implementation of a car pool/ car sha<strong>ring</strong> scheme;<br />
