Planning Authority
CONSULTATION PROCESS
The proposal was subject to a public notification period in accordance with Section 57 of
LUPAA.
COMMENT
The proposal is considered to be of a somewhat substantial scale in relation to the lot
size, and the Planning Scheme’s objectives for encouraging smaller scale modest
development throughout Boat Harbour. Notwithstanding, the proposal is considered to
be capable of meeting the Planning Scheme performance criteria in relation to the
relevant residential development and siting provisions. The scale of the building is likely
to have some impact on the amenity of adjacent residential properties by way of loss of
views, privacy and overshadowing. However, a ‘permitted’ development under the
scheme would likely have a comparable impact on the views from 14 Cummings Street.
The proposal is capable of being conditioned to adequately address the impacts of
privacy to 10 Cummings Street, and the proposal has demonstrated that it meets the
Planning Scheme requirements in respect of overshadowing. It is therefore
recommended that Council grant approval for a 2 Unit Development at 12 Cummings
Street, Boat Harbour Beach subject to conditions.
It is therefore recommended:
That Council grant approval for a 2 Unit Development – Reliance on Performance Criteria
under Residential Zone Provisions at 12 Cummings Street, Boat Harbour Beach subject to
the following conditions:

generally in accordance with the plans accompanying the application but
