Accordingly, the applicant amended the proposal to achieve full compliance with all applicable requirements of the LLEP 2008 and LDCP 2008. Ensuring full compliance with all other standards and controls coupled with a relatively minor departure from the minimum lot size is considered to demonstrate that compliance with the standard is unreasonable in this case as the development can be sited with full adherence to local provisions. \n\n• The DA also is fully consistent with the provisions of the relevant SEPP’s, as previously demonstrated in the delegated assessment report. \n\n• The applicant, through an amended design, designed the proposal to suit the site attributes and provides dwellings that are considered to reasonably respond to the corner lot and broad frontage of the site. The applicant has agreed to provide additionally infrastructure in the roadway to maintain safety of the network for vehicle and pedestrian movements. \n\n• The proposed subdivision pattern is considered to regular and consistent with neighbouring properties, and as such is an orderly development of the site.\n\n\n\nAs per the above, strict compliance with the development standard is considered unreasonable as it is unlikely there would be any impacts associated with the variation in accordance with local and state policies, the variation is relatively minor in nature and it would therefore be unreasonable restrict the development of the site for semi-detached dwellings in that regard.\n\n\n\nIt is considered that there are sufficient environmental planning grounds to justify contravening the development standard, as listed below:\n\n\n\n• The development proposes residential lots that accommodate dwellings and achieve appropriate amenity based on full compliance with relevant state and local policies. In this regard, refusing the application based on non-compliance with the minimum lot size requirement is unlikely to provide additional benefit to the locality. \n\n• The proposed subdivision rationalises the subject lots to achieve orderly development and a typical subdivision pattern. \n\n• Despite the smaller lot sizes proposed, the dwellings are considered to provide a visually interesting streetscape pattern and character. \n\n• The variation sought is considered to be relatively minor, being 3.1%. \n\n• The development is considered to satisfy all of the relevant heads of consideration as per Section 4.15 (1) of the Act. \n\n\n\nHaving regard to the above, it is considered that there are sufficient environmental planning ground to vary Clause 4.1 Minimum subdivision lot size in this instance.","Council under assumed concurrence","2019-08-09"]
