REAR TWO STOREY DWELLING<br />
SUMMARY:<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> has received an application for a two storey dwelling at the rear <strong>of</strong> No. 11 Caddy<br />
Avenue, West Leederville. The plans show a contemporary designed home with a mix <strong>of</strong> flat<br />
and skillion ro<strong>of</strong>ing, an internal courtyard, and a double garage accessed <strong>of</strong>f the adjacent<br />
right-<strong>of</strong>-way.<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 />
The proposal is considered to satisfy the relevant performance criteria for the following<br />
reasons:-<br />
<br />
the proposed building height is consistent with the desired height <strong>of</strong> buildings in the<br />
locality and does not have a significant detrimental impact on the amenities <strong>of</strong> the<br />
adjoining properties.<br />
Accordingly, the proposal is recommended for approval.<br />
