Height
Subclause
P1 Building height
consistent with the
desired height of
buildings in the
locality, and to
recognise the need to
protect the amenities
of
adjoining
properties, including,
where appropriate:-
• adequate
direct sun to buildings
and appurtenant open
spaces;
Satisfies
Performance
Criteria
Does Not
Satisfy
Performance
Criteria
The proposed grouped
dwelling meets the
acceptable development
standards of the R-Codes
relating to solar access
and it is therefore
considered that the
proposed development
has no undue impact on
the adjoining properties
access to direct sunlight in
open spaces and
habitable rooms.
• adequate
daylight to major
openings to habitable
rooms; and
• access to
views of significance.
Whilst it is acknowledged
that some loss of views of
significance may be
experienced by the
dwellings to the rear of the
subject lot towards the Mt
Flora Regional Museum,
these are no greater than
that which would be lost
as a result of a dwelling
with a compliant building
height.
