The proposed use requires three (3) on-site car spaces. The development proposes five (5) onsite
parking spaces, comprising two (2) staff spaces, accessed from the rear, and three (3)
client spaces, accessed from the side lane. The proposal complies fully with the requirements
<strong>of</strong> DCP 43 and is not considered <strong>to</strong> place any additional pressure on local on-street parking.
The proposed car parking is considered <strong>to</strong> <strong>be</strong> safe and efficient in accordance with the
objectives and design requirements <strong>of</strong> DCP 43.
Development Control Plan 47 – Water Management
As detailed, the application includes an on-site detention system and the provision <strong>of</strong> a rain
water tank <strong>to</strong> collect ro<strong>of</strong> water.
Accordingly, the proposed development provides for the appropriate and environmentally
responsible collection/disposal/re-use <strong>of</strong> s<strong>to</strong>rmwater and is consistent with the objectives and
requirements <strong>of</strong> DCP 47.
Development Control Plan 28 – Advertising Signs
The proposal includes the replacement <strong>of</strong> existing business identification signs with signs
stating ‘Turramurra Veterinary Clinic’ for business identification purposes as follows:
• Awning sign along the Princes Street Frontage, facing south, flush <strong>to</strong> the existing
building awning, measuring 3300mm in length by 300mm in width.
• A flush wall sign is proposed along the Bannockburn Road (west) elevation <strong>of</strong> the
building, measuring 6300mm in length and 1100mm in width/height. The sign will <strong>be</strong>
attached flush <strong>to</strong> the brick wall, <strong>be</strong>low the ro<strong>of</strong>line.
• A flush wall sign is proposed along the rear elevation <strong>of</strong> the building, facing
north/Princes Lane, measuring 2100mm in length and 800mm in width, <strong>to</strong> match the
signs descri<strong>be</strong>d above.
The signage will <strong>be</strong> applied <strong>to</strong> a separate flat white colourbond sheet, with lettering and logo
applied as vinyl film. Colours adopted are grey writing with a grey/yellow and red logo on a
white background. The proposed signs are not illuminated.
Under the aims and objectives <strong>of</strong> DCP 28, signage should maintain a balance <strong>be</strong>tween
established built form and the character <strong>of</strong> the streetscape, <strong>to</strong> ensure signage does not intrude
or detrimentally affect visual amenity and <strong>to</strong> ensure signage does not obstruct access.
The proposed signage generally replaces existing commercial signage (associated with the
previous butcher shop). The signage is appropriate and in context with the business centre and
does not unreasonably intrude upon the streetscape or the visual quality <strong>of</strong> the area. The
