10S. OTHER CONSIDERATION

5.1 Air quality

The proposed construcion works will have minor potential for off−site dust impacts and

no controls are recommended.

5.2 Noise impacts

The works associated with the construction of the development will generate noiseimpacts associated with the vehicle movements and the use of power tools. The workswill be limited to daytime hours only.

5.3 Waste

Waste generated from the development's construction will be removed by contractorsto facilities which can lawfully receive the waste.

5.4 Water quality & stormwater

There is no potential for surface water impacts during construction works. Stormwaterfalling on the carport roof will be captured and report to the site's existing stormwaterinfrastructure.

5.5 Traffic

There will be a minor increase in vehicle movements during the developmentconstruction works. The ongoing use of the development is not traffic generating.

5.6 Visual impacts

The development's visual impact will be minor on the existing streetscape being largelyscreened by Street trees and front yard trees and will be constructed with materialssympathetic to the residential amenity.

5.7 Open space

The principle private open space area is unaffected.


115. OTHER CONSIDERATION

5.8 Overshadowing & privacy

There development does not affect the solar access or private open space of theadjoining neighbours being a carport in the front yard.

5.9 Flooding

Yenda is identified as potentially at risk from flooding from the Mirrool Creek andlocalized stormwater flows. The development site is identified as being in the floodfringe of the 'Provisional flood categorization' for a 1% AEP identified at Figure A−4 ofthe Griffith Main Drain J and Mirrool Creek Floodplain Risk Management Study andPlan (August 2015). The development is a carport compatible with the flood hazard ofthe location and will not affect flood behaviour.


126. CONCLUSION

The proposed development meets the requirements of all the matters for consideration atSection 4.15 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 including theobligations of all the relevant environmental planning instruments that apply to the land(pending approval of the proposed variation to the DCP). Dwelling houses and ancillarycarports are permitted development at the location and the applicant seeks approval fromGriffith City Council as the consent authority for the proposed development.

13APPENDIX 1

REQUEST FOR A DEVELOPMENT CONTROL VARIATION

Griffith Residential Development Plan

Proposed carport − 70 Leaver Street Yenda

The proposed carport complies with DCP controls including size, height and finishes.

1. What is the development control(s) to be varied.The carport setback control = must be behind the building line (behind the 4.5m frontsetback).

2. Provide details of the extent of variation (ie. what is the non−compliance)? Is itminor or extensive? (% of variation between your proposal and the developmentcontrol)The proposed carport encroaches to within 3m of the front boundary setback and is1.5m in front of the building line. The setback area is 90m2 (20m x 4.5m) and the

carport encroachment into the setback area is 10.5 M2 (7m x 1.5m) or 12% of the frontsetback area and is considered minor.

3. Provide details of the specific circumstances of the variation and why it is beingrequested?There is no alternate location of the carport which is required by the applicant forweather protection for vehicles garaged at the site and to provide wet weather accessto the dwelling.

4. Are the controls considered unnecessary or unreasonable in the circumstances ofthe proposal, why?The control is unnecessary because the encroachment is minor and the carport ismodest in size (44m2) and a light structure being a flat roof and some posts.


APPENDIX 114

S. If there are objectives of the control how does the variation achieve them?The objective of carport setback control is to prevent the carport from dominating theprimary elevation of the dwelling and generally so that carports are sited and designedto positively contribute to the streetscape and character of the area.

These development is justified because the DCP objectives are achieved through the

carport being attached to the dwelling and it will blend into the streetscape throughbeing a light structure that is predominantly screened by street trees and front yard

trees of the site and adjoining sites.

6. Provide a justification as to why the development will not have additional adverseimpacts as a result of the variation?The justification is the control is unnecessary (detailed at 4.), the carport is a lightstructure screened by trees with a minor impact on the streetscape and a negligibleimpact on the adjoining neighbours. The development is also a feature of residential

areas and is consistent with the character of the locality.
