LOT 341 (NO. 240) OCEANIC DRIVE, CITY BEACH - AMENDED PLANS FOR<br />
TWO STOREY DWELLING WITH UNDERCROFT<br />
SUMMARY:<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> has received an application for an upper ro<strong>of</strong> deck and shed at No. 240 Oceanic<br />
Drive, corner Tumut Road, City Beach. A two storey dwelling with undercr<strong>of</strong>t is currently<br />
under construction on the subject site. The approved plans show a flat ro<strong>of</strong>ed section facing<br />
west to Tumut Road, adjacent to the north boundary. The amended plans show a ro<strong>of</strong>ed<br />
deck in this location, accessed via an extension to the lift shaft. A shed is also proposed in<br />
the north-eastern corner <strong>of</strong> the site.<br />
The application requires a <strong>Council</strong> determination as an assessment is required against the<br />
wall height, rear and side setback, and visual privacy setback performance criteria <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Residential Design Codes <strong>of</strong> WA (R Codes) and objections have been received during the<br />
consultation period that cannot be resolved through a condition <strong>of</strong> planning approval.<br />
The proposal is not considered to satisfy the relevant performance criteria for the following<br />
reasons:-<br />
<br />
the increased height and bulk <strong>of</strong> the dwelling will result in negative impacts on the<br />
streetscape and the amenity <strong>of</strong> the neighbouring properties, particularly access to<br />
views <strong>of</strong> significance.<br />
Accordingly, the ro<strong>of</strong> deck proposal is recommended for refusal. The shed is, however,<br />
recommended for approval.<br />

amended plans on hold, to consider further amendments to the drawings. In July 2012, the<br />

December 2011 to be considered by <strong>Council</strong>, without further amendment.<br />
