External Referrals
Cradle Mountain Water
A referral was sent to Cradle Mountain Water on the 21 September 2012. A response
was received on the 1 October 2012 requiring Part B conditions for this permit (see
attached).
Advertising
The application was advertised for a period of 14 days in accordance with the provisions
of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act, 1993. During the advertising period, Council
received four representations. The issues raised in the representations are summarised
below along with an appropriate planning comment.
Issues Raised:
The impact the proposed building will have on privacy and views from the eastern side of the property at
16 Cummings Street as well as the orchards on that property as a result of the scale of the proposed
building.
The impacts of overshadowing and privacy on the outdoor and indoor living areas of 10 Cummings Street.
The general loss of amenity to surrounding properties resulting from the scale of the proposed building.
The scale of the building (particularly height) is contrary to the amenity and intended character of the area
(specifically Clause 6.4.2 Boat Harbour Urban Design).
The proposal cannot demonstrate compliance with the Scheme’s requirements under Part 11 in relation to
setbacks, fencing requirements and energy efficiency.
