SUMMARY:<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> has received an application for additions and alterations to the existing dwelling at<br />
No. 6 Tumut Road, corner Windarra Drive, City Beach. The plans show a new third storey<br />
comprising <strong>of</strong> a lookout room, corridor and a lift to access this lookout room.<br />
The application requires a <strong>Council</strong> determination as an assessment is required against the<br />
building height performance criteria <strong>of</strong> the Residential Design Codes <strong>of</strong> WA (R Codes) and<br />
objections have been received during the consultation period that cannot be resolved<br />
through a condition <strong>of</strong> planning approval.<br />

reasons:-<br />
• the proposed height is not consistent with the desired height <strong>of</strong> buildings in the locality<br />
and does not protect the amenities <strong>of</strong> the adjoining properties, in particular access to<br />
views <strong>of</strong> significance from the adjoining properties.<br />
Accordingly, the proposal is recommended for refusal.<br />
