The submissions raised the following issues:
Loss of privacy to backyard, kitchen and living area 6 Pockley Avenue due to additional height
The application does not increase the approved height of the development. The reconsideration of
this issue is not available in the section 96 application. However, given that the rear yard of No.6
Pockley Avenue is a minimum of 60 metres from the development and that there is substantial
boundary landscape screening, no adverse privacy impact is expected.
Loss of value to property due to increased noise and traffic due to additional bedrooms
This is not an issue for consideration under the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act1979.
Increased traffic
The revised unit mix and the provision of 11 additional car spaces will not result in a significant
impact with respect of the potential traffic generated during peak hours. This will have no
detrimental affect upon the existing operation or level of service of Kings Avenue or the
surrounding road network.
The proposal does not fit well into its surrounding streetscape
Multi-unit residential developments are permissible under the zoning and are therefore anticipated
in the area. The development as proposed to be modified complies with the prescribed standards of
LEP 194, in particular maximum height, number of storeys and site coverage, has adequate deep
soil landscaping and sufficient tree planting provision, consistent with the established landscape
character of the area.
Adjoining properties to the south and east are also zoned for multi-unit residential development.
The modified proposal responds effectively to the objectives and development standards of LEP
194 and DCP 55 and is therefore in accordance with the desired future character of the area.
The modified awnings visually detract from the building’s appearance as they have been added
only for functional appearance
The eaves overhang to level six of building element A (northern section) is proposed to be extended
1.8 metres in both east and west directions and 1.2 metres in the north and south direction. The
eaves overhang to level six of building element B (southern section) is proposed to be extended
