Proposed Dwelling Addition (Outbuilding) at 10 (Lot 10) Honeytree Grove Cowaramup

Major (Level 2) P219148; PTY/9175 REPORTING OFFICER : Lucy Gouws DISCLOSURE OF INTEREST : Nil

General Information

Lot Area 2012sqm

Zone Residential R5

Proposed Development Planning approval is sought to extend an existing 23m2 outbuilding/shed with an 11.7m2 addition. The addition would be located alongside the existing shed and setback 1m from the side (southern) lot boundary. The shed is a skillion design with a maximum wall height of 3.16m and a minimum wall height of 2.4m. The proposal generates a requirement for planning approval due to a variation to the 5m setback guideline, on R5 density coded lots, for development under Local Planning Scheme No. 1 (the Scheme).

Permissible Use Class ‘P’ permitted in association with an existing dwelling

Policy Requirements

Is the land or proposal referred to in any Council Policy? √ Yes ☐ No

If yes, state the Policy/Policies Local Planning Policy 1 – Outbuildings, Farm Buildings and Swimming Pools (LPP1)

Officer Comment The proposed outbuilding complies with LPP1.

Structure Plans and Local Development Plans (DAP)

Is the land in any Structure Plan Area or subject to a DAP? ☐ Yes √ No

Advertising/Agency Referrals

Has the application been referred to adjoining landowners/agency? √ Yes ☐ No ☐ N/A

Has a submission been received by Council? One submission of objection was received from an adjoining affected land owner.

√ Yes ☐ No ☐ N/A No. received: 1

Have agency or authority comments been received? ☐ Yes √ No ☐ N/A

Nature of Submission Officer Comment

- Concerns with power tools being used in the existing shed, and noise generated.

- Concerns with a second outbuilding along the fence line.

- Concerns new shed will be used as a

workshop, not storage shed. - Neighbours outdoor living area faces

this fence line. - Concerns shed will block view of trees,

and light. - There are plenty of other areas within

the Site that the shed can be located without interfering with neighbours.

The proponent has been provided with the Shire’s ‘Neighbourhood Noise’ guidance sheet, to advise them of the appropriate use of power tools in a residential area. The combined floor area of the proposed and existing outbuilding will result in a total outbuilding area of 35.1m2. To appreciate the minor scale of the proposal, the total outbuilding size would be approximately half the 60m2 size permitted under the deemed to comply standards of the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes) for

sheds in the zone. The applicant has advised that given the side setback variation involved, they are willing to install landscaping along the fence line. This vegetation will offer further screening of the development along the common boundary in order to address the neighbour’s concerns. The rear (southern) elevation of the outbuilding, facing the common boundary, will be 2.4m in height. This the lowest part of the building and as a result, 600mm of the outbuilding will be visible above the boundary fence line. Given the small scale, orientation and proposed landscaping the development is considered unlikely to have an adverse visual impact to the amenity of the neighbouring property inspite of the setback variation. Given the small scale of the development, it will not result in adverse impacts to sunlight or views enjoyed from neighbouring properties. Furthermore, it is noted that the proposed setback variation is consistent with the existing and established pattern of development in the area. Typically in this area, dwellings and sheds have been constructed at the rear of dwellings at a reduced setback to the side boundaries.

Clause 67

A. In the opinion of the officer, would approval of the planning consent be appropriate under Clause 67 of the Deemed Provisions of the Scheme?

Officer Comment

The proposal is acceptable when assessed against the Matters to be Considered under clause 67 of the Scheme. The Scheme provides a 5m side setback guideline on R5 coded lots. The location of the extension to the existing outbuilding represents a variation to this standard to allow a setback of 1m from the side (southern) boundary. The variation to the side setback for the location of the outbuilding is to allow the proponent to extend the existing outbuilding by a floor area of 11.7m2. The site is sought to enable use of the existing level and cleared area of the lot whilst retaining the existing access the outbuilding. The proposed 1m side boundary setback is consistent with the patter of development in the area, will not be visible from the front street and will not therefore have adverse streetscape impacts.

B. In the opinion of the officer:

i. Are utility services available and adequate for the development? Yes.

ii. Has adequate provision been made for the landscaping and protection for any trees or other vegetation on the land?

Yes, additional landscaping is to be provided and is recommended to be required in a condition of any approval granted.

iii. Has adequate provision been made for access for the development or facilities by disabled persons?

N/A

iv. Is development likely to cause detriment to the existing and likely future amenity of the neighbourhood?

None.

v. Is the development likely to comply with AS3959 at the building permit stage?

N/A

Other Comments

Any further comments in relation to the application?

Officer Comment

Although concerns have been raised to the proposal, the variation for an outbuilding of a total combined floor area of 35.1m2 is considered acceptable and will not be adverse to the amenity of the area, neighbouring properties or the streetscape. Reduced side setback for outbuildings has commonly occurred in the area and is consistent with the established pattern of development in the area. Conditional approval is recommended.

OFFICER RECOMMENDATION That the Statutory Planning Coordinator GRANTS Planning Consent under Delegated Authority Instrument No. 16 pursuant to Clause 68(2) of the Deemed Provisions of Local Planning Scheme No. 1 for Dwelling Addition (Outbuilding) at 10 (Lot 10) Honeytree Grove Cowaramup subject to compliance with the following conditions: CONDITIONS

3. The outbuilding shall be used solely for purposes incidental and ancillary to the authorised use of the land.

4. The outbuilding shall not be used for human habitation. 5. A Landscape Plan shall be prepared to the satisfaction of the Shire and shall be submitted to the Shire prior
