Decision Maker: Local Planning Panel
Decision status: Recommendations Determined
The Panel refused
consent for Development Application No. D/2018/648.
Reasons for Decision
The Panel refused the
application for the following reasons:
(A)
The proposal
does not comply with the provisions of Clause 4.4 Floor Space Ratio (FSR) of
the Sydney Local Environmental Plan with a proposed FSR of 2.14:1 exceeding the
maximum 1:1 as prescribed by Clause 4.4.
(B)
The proposal
does not comply with the requirements of Clause 4.6(3) of the Sydney Local
Environmental Plan 2012 in that no formal request to vary the maximum
permissible FSR under Clause 4.4 and 6.14 of the Sydney Local Environmental
Plan 2012 has been provided.
(C)
The proposal
fails to meet the objectives of Clause 6.14(1)(b) of Sydney Local Environmental
Plan 2012 as it result in adverse amenity impacts through the additional floor
space.
(D)
The proposed
development fails to demonstrate design excellence in accordance with Clause
6.21 of Sydney Local Environmental Plan 2012 as it results in unacceptable bulk
and scale and detrimental impacts on the streetscape on William Lane.
(E)
The proposed
additional storey is in breach of the maximum permitted height in storeys and
is inconsistent with Section 4.2.1 of the Sydney Development Control Plan 2012.
(F)
The
application has not demonstrated that the proposal will not have detrimental
impacts on the amenity of neighbouring properties by way of unacceptable visual
impacts, and as such is inconsistent with the requirements of Section 4.1.3.1
and 4.1.3.6 of Sydney Development Control Plan 2012.
(G)
The proposed
development is not in keeping with the future desired character of the area and
is not considered to be in the public interest.
Carried unanimously.
