Reasons for Decision

The Panel approved the application as:

(A)        The development is consistent with the objectives of the planning controls for the site for the reasons outlined in the report to the Local Planning Panel.

(B)        The variation to Clause 4.3 Height of Buildings of the Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 is supported by the provisions of Clause 4.6 ‘Exceptions to development standards’ as it is consistent with adjoining buildings, provides a set down in height from the taller buildings to the north and does not result in unreasonable amenity impacts to neighbouring properties and is in the public interest.

(C)       The proposed development is generally consistent with the provisions of the Apartment Design Guide (ADG) and will achieve a high level of amenity for the future residents of the buildings.
