The applicant has indicated a willingness to reconsider the design of this element of the
buildings to address this matter. They have indicated that this can be done prior to the
Council meeting next week.
It was therefore agreed that this item be submitted to Council for determination.
FURTHER REPORT (Post Committee Meeting 20 November 2012)
At the Development Committee meeting held on 20 November 2012, issues were raised
regarding the height of the front walls above the entry doors. The applicant has reconsidered the

reduced in height to be the same height as the rest of the walls on the front elevation.
