COUNCIL MINUTESTUESDAY 26 JUNE 2012DV12.64LOT 268 (NO. 61) NEWRY STREET, FLOREAT - TWO STOREY DWELLINGWITH UNDERCROFT GARAGESUMMARY:The Town has received an application for a two storey dwelling with undercroft garage at No.61 Newry Street, FloreatThe application requires a Council determination as an assessment is required against the wallheight, fill and retaining and setback performance criteria of the Residential Design Codes ofWA (R Codes) and an objection has been received during the consultation period.The proposal is not considered to satisfy the relevant performance criteria for the followingreasons:-• the proposed finished floor level and associated fill and retaining to side boundaries doesnot retain the visual impression of the natural level of the site as viewed from the street orfrom an adjoining property.• the proposed finished floor level results in variations to wall height which is not consistentwith the desired height of buildings in the locality and has an impact on the amenity ofadjoining neighbours in terms of adequate direct sun to buildings and appurtenant openspaces.Accordingly, it is recommended that the proposed finished floor level of the dwelling be reducedby 400mm to a finished floor level of FFL 12.7 which will bring the wall heights closer to thedesired wall height for Floreat and match the floor level of the existing dwelling on the site. Inaddition, it is recommended that the retaining along the eastern side boundary not exceed 0.5metres above natural ground level at any point except for within the front setback area where itcan be 750mm above natural ground level. Subject to these conditions, the application can besupported.BACKGROUND:Application: 205DA-2012Owner:Christopher TooheyApplicant: Ross Griffin Homes Pty LtdZoning:Residential R15Use class: Dwelling (single) ‘P’ – permittedLand area: 921 m²DETAILS:Development description• Existing single storey dwelling with undercroft garage on right (west) side of property.• Site slopes down from the rear (southern) boundary to front (northern) boundaryapproximately 3.5 metres.• The proposed dwelling is two storey and has an undercroft garage in a similar location tothe existing but a double garage in lieu of a single.H:\CEO\GOV\COUNCIL MINUTES\12 MINUTES\JUNE 2012\B DV.DOCX 24
