5.1.4 Driveways, Crossovers & Battle Axe DrivesDriveways and crossovers invariably create an impact on the streetscape. Avariety of construction materials have been used for driveways and crossovers inthe Precinct. The most popular is gravel which given its natural characteristics andassociation with the hills environment, integrates very successfully with thestreetscape. However, it is not always possible to utilise gravel due to slope,drainage and/or maintenance issues on some properties and the expectations ofsome landowners for a more urban environment. Should landowners wish toupgrade their driveways and crossovers, it should be done in a sympatheticmanner that reflects the earthy colours of the Precinct. Some particularly longdriveways are created as a result of battle-axe subdivisions and warrant specialtreatment.Guideline R8: Landowners who upgrade driveways and/orcrossovers other than with gravel, are to constructthem of red/brown asphalt or other paving surface of asimilar colour. (Engineering).Guideline R9:Access drives to any new battle-axe lots to bered/brown asphalt or other paving surface of a similarcolour. (Engineering)5.1.5 Building AppearanceWhilst brick and tile is the predominant construction type of dwellings, a variety ofarchitectural styles has contributed to the residential character of the Precinct. Inaddition, many dwellings use earthy colours that are consistent with the hillsenvironment. Some dwellings and outbuildings utilised reflective materials, mainlyzincalume, which is not desirable. However, their impact is reduced by the factthat the Precinct contains heavy tree coverage.Guideline R10: Extensions to existing dwellings and outbuildings to beconstructed in a manner sympathetic to the existingbuildings on site. This may be achieved by theappropriate choice of materials, colours, proportionsof window /door openings in relation to building massand the like. (Building)Guideline R11: New dwellings and outbuildings to use earthy coloursthat are consistent with the hills environment such asred, brown, rustic orange (gravel), olive, grey, greenand various tones of these colours. Reflectivematerials including zincalume and white cladding arenot permitted (Building).GLEN FORREST VILLAGE CENTRE PRECINCT PLAN8
