TRANSCRIPT
ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification DV17.54 - LOT 777 (NO. 263) CAMBRIDGE STREET, WEMBLEY APPLICANT'S JUSTIFICATION We act on behalf of Excel Homes as their consultant town planners and refer to the development approval granted by the Town of Cambridge dated 8 March 2017 for the construction of a nine (9) new multiple dwellings on Lot 777 (No.263) Cambridge Street, Wembley (Ref: 0346DA-2016). During the preparation of working drawings in support of building permit application for the proposed development on the abovementioned land, it was identified that the following minor changes to the design layout of the development are proposed: (i) Increase the finished floor level of Units 1 & 2 in order to have due regard for the
existing level of the Water Corporation sewerage line within Hallifax Lane to ensure satisfactory fall; and
(ii) Install a flat (i.e. concealed) roof over the balconies of Units 4, 5, 8 & 9 to improve the amenity of the dwellings for the future occupants.
In light of the above, this application seeks the Town’s approval to amend the approved plans accordingly. It is significant to note that the design layout of the proposed development has not changes and are consistent with the approved plans issued by the Town dated 8 March 2017. In assessing the application we ask that the Town give due consideration to the following matters: Proposed Floor Level Increase 1. As previously mentioned, during the preparation of working drawings in support of
building permit application for the proposed development, it was identified that a minor change to the design layout of the development is required to provide an adequate fall to the existing sewer line within Hallifax Lane (i.e. rear of subject land).
2. It is significant to note that the information provided to the applicant from the Water
Corporation at the development application stage was not accurate regarding the depth of the sewer line. Following a revised survey of the site, the depth of the sewer line has now been accurately provided, resulting in the need to amend the approved design (i.e. levels) for Units 1 & 2. It is significant to note that the Water Corporation has now updated its records using the information provided by the owner of Lot 777.
3. Having due regard for the revised height of the existing sewer line, this application
seeks the Town’s approval to increase the finished floor level of Units 1 & 2 by 343mm (or 4 courses) to satisfy the Water Corporation requirements regarding the necessary fall to the sewer line to the rear of Lot 777. In order to compensate for the increase in levels, the ’parapet wall heights’ have been reduced accordingly.
4. In light of the above points, the following information is provided in support of the
amended plans;
(i) The proposed increase in finished floor level for Units 1 & 2 will not have an adverse impact on the streetscape or the adjoining properties in terms of bulk and scale.
ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification DV17.54 - LOT 777 (NO. 263) CAMBRIDGE STREET, WEMBLEY
(ii) The proposed development meets the ’deemed to comply requirements’ of
Element 6.4.2 C2.1 (’Solar access for adjoining sites’) of the R-Codes and will not detrimentally impact access to light and ventilation for the existing dwellings on any adjoining properties.
(iii) The wall height of those portion s of the proposed development to be built up to the western side boundary meets the ’deemed to comply requirements’ of Element 6.1.4 C4.3 (Lot boundary setbacks’) of the R-Codes.
(iv) The building height of the proposed development on Lot 777, including the increase in finished floor levels for Units 1 & 2, meet the deemed to comply requirements’ of the Town of Cambridge Local Planning Policy No.33 (’Building Height’).
(v) It is contended that the proposed increase in finished floor levels for the new development to be built up to the western side boundary is consistent in terms of their design, bulk and scale with other similar residential developments approved by the Town in the immediate locality.
(vi) The proposed increase in the current approved finished floor level of Units 1 & 2 on Lot 777 will not have an adverse impact on any major openings to habitable rooms or any outdoor living areas associated with any dwellings on the adjoining properties.
5. Having regard for all of the above it is contended that the proposed increase in finished
floor level for Units 1 & 2 of the new multiple dwelling development on Lot 777 will not have an adverse impact on the adjoining properties or the streetscape, it meets the relevant ’deemed to comply requirements’ of the R-Codes and the Town’s Local Planning Polices and may therefore be approved by the Town.
Proposed Coverage of Balconies 6. It is duly noted that Condition No.3 of the Town’s approval dated 8 March 2017
requires that the balconies for Units 4 & 5 be unroofed.
7. The amended plans prepared in support of this application propose to insert a flat roof behind the approved masonry facade structure to be constructed along the upper perimeter of the balcony for Units 4, 5, 8 & 9. The proposed installation of the concealed roof structure for each balcony is justified for the following reasons:
(i) The roof structure will not be visible from the street given that it will be concealed
behind the masonry facade of the balcony.
(ii) The underside of the roof will be finished in a cedar wood to provide an attractive appearance of the balcony for the benefit of the future occupants of the dwellings.
(iii) The proposed roofing of the balconies for Units 4 & 5 will not have an adverse impact on the local streetscape in terms of bulk and scale.
ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification DV17.54 - LOT 777 (NO. 263) CAMBRIDGE STREET, WEMBLEY
(iv) The proposed roof structures will assist with providing cover over the outdoor living areas pertaining to each dwelling to provide protection from the elements. As such, the outdoor living areas could be used by the occupants of the dwelling throughout the year.
(v) The proposed roofing of the balconies will provide much needed protection of the sliding door for the living room for each dwelling from rain and the summer sun.
(vi) In regards to Units 8 & 9, the Town’s approval did not specifically require the balconies to be unroofed.
(vii) The R-Codes do not preclude the balconies within the front setback area of development to be roofed.
8. Having regard for all of the above it is contended that the proposed roofing of the
balconies for Units 4, 5, 8 & 9 of the new multiple welling development on Lot 777 will not have an adverse impact on the adjoining properties or the streetscape and may therefore be approved by the Town.
Conclusion In light of the above information and justifications, we respectfully request the Town’s favourable consideration and approval of the amended plans for the construction of nine (9) multiple dwellings on Lot 777 (No. 263) Cambridge Street, Wembley at their earliest possible convenience.
ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification and Neighbour Comment DV17.55 - ATT 1 OF 2 - LOT 334 (NO. 110) BRANKSOME GARDENS, CITY BEACH
APPLICANT'S JUSTIFICATION
During construction it became apparent that a portion of garage roof slab could be used as roof garden that can be accessed off the upper level ensuite bathroom.
The area will be a totally private space enclosed by a privacy screen. Indeed, the area will be predominantly plans and essentially wont' be a habitable space. There is a sliding door from the ensuite that opens onto this garden so the natural ventilation and appreciation of this garden can occur.
There is absolutely no overlooking from this area. Refer applicant's further justification (URBIS) attached.
NEIGHBOUR COMMENT
Submission One (No. 112 Branksome Gardens)
We object to the creation of a rooftop garden/balcony as the added bulk from the screening would have a significant impact on our amenity. It does not comply with the deemed to comply provision of the R Codes or the design principles as it will increase the building bulk of an already very imposing structure. The building is already 2 storeys high along almost the entire length of our northern boundary. While compliant, this fact must be taken into account when considering whether to allow them to increase the bulk further with a balcony and screening that does not comply with setback provisions.
Adding a screen to the roof top will mean that the only bit of relief we have from the building, where the structure steps in, is in fact taken away.
We also bring attention to a conversation with the architect where we were told the screen would be made of aluminium slats. The plans specify a perforated steel screen which is decorative. Aluminium slats are not. We also have concern that there is no screen shown on the rear elevation and the floor plan simply states a 1.65 metre screen will be provided however it's open to interpretation whether the lines on the plan indicate the screen on 3 sides or a combination of screen and 1 metre high balustrade.
The architect has also verbally committed to increasing the length of obscure glazing behind the playroom to alleviate our privacy concerns and block any views into our backyard from the playroom. However we have not had this commitment in writing.
We believe the only way to ensure privacy is for Council to require the applicant to fir a fixed piece of obscure glazing to the playroom up to 1.65 metre as there is no method of ensuring the louvers are in fact fixed and not operable.

Attention: Jenny Bender (Acting Director Planning Town of Cambridge)
Dear Jenny,
SUPPORTING SUBMISSION FOR AMENDED DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION 0055DA-2017 - 110 LOT 334) BRANKSOME GARDENS, CITY BEACH.
On behalf of the land owners at 110 (Lot 334) Branksome Gardens, City Beach, Urbis provides this submission in support of the proposed amended planning application 0055DA-2017.
Urbis understands there are several issues that relate to the proposed amended application, however, Urbis will be focussing on two elements only, these being, the ‘roof garden’ and the ‘roof hatch’. This correspondence seeks to demonstrate how these proposed amendments meet the associated ‘Design Principles’ of the R-Codes and relevant Town of Cambridge local planning policies.
ROOF HATCH The development approval (0290DA-2014) for this development includes an approved upper deck (roof terrace) that complies with the maximum wall height limits for a flat roof structure under the Town of Cambridge Local Planning Scheme No. 1 (LPS1) and subsequently Local Planning Policy 3.3 Building Height (LPP3.3). This approved roof deck is accessible via an internal stair case that has been constructed to the approved plans. Upon ordering the designed ‘flush’ hatch system, it was determined that due to the coastal conditions, and more specifically the winds experienced on the Perth coastline, the manufacturers could not warrant nor guarantee the hatch would leak water if rain were to enter at a ‘sideways’ direction.
The builder and architect have established from liaison with multiple other manufacturers that the only way to guarantee waterproofing the home, is to have a more traditional hatch system. The hatch structure proposed has been selected to mitigate its appearance through use of glass and will appear almost invisible from the street and surrounding properties. The area of the hatch has also been minimised to the area required to access the roof only and covers only 3.75 sq. m at full height and 6 sq. m in totality. Some further context that should be considered, is the majority of the dwelling sits well below the 7.5m height allowance. Close to 50% of the dwelling is 6.2m above natural ground level and with the exception of the roof deck surrounding wall, is nearly all under 7m above natural ground level.

20170502_PA1428_Submission of Support to Amendmed DA.docx 2
Building height within the Town of Cambridge is administered by LPP3.3 which is adopted under LPS1. LPP3.3 requires a maximum building height of 7.5 metres within the City Beach Precinct to meet the deem to comply standards. This development proposes 8.6m at the highest point of the roof hatch. However, should the deemed to comply not be met, as per LPP3.3, the design principals of the R-Codes and specifically Cl. 5.1.6 should be met.
Table 1 – Design Assessment – Roof Hatch
Clause Design Principal (DP) Assessment against DP DP Met?
5.1.6 P6 Building height that creates no adverse impact on the amenity of adjoining properties or the streetscape, including road reserves and public open space reserves; and where appropriate maintains:
• adequate access to direct
sun into buildings and appurtenant open spaces;
The proposed structure above the maximum 7.5m height has no impact on sunlight to any portion of the proposed development or neighbouring open spaces. As depicted in Attachment 1 the structure has no overshadowing impact on the neighbouring property at all as the shadow cast by the roof hatch projects within the approved wall height of the first floor.
YES
• adequate daylight to major
openings into habitable rooms; and
The proposed structure above the maximum 7.5m height has no impact on daylight to any portion of the proposed developments major openings or any opening for that matter. This is also consistent with the neighbouring properties for the same reason presented above and represented by Attachment 1.
YES
• access to views of
significance. The proposed structure is completely glass with the exception of framing. This creates the appearance of being almost invisible. This also creates the ability for any surrounding properties, to see through the structure to any views that it may suggested it impedes.
YES

Clause Design Principal (DP) Assessment against DP DP Met?
It must also be recognised that this home could have been built to meet the deemed to comply standards with a pitched roof height up to 9m in height. This is completely relevant as the roof hatch is in a central position not far from the likely apex of a roof pitch. The loss of views of surrounding properties and overall bulk of the built form would be far more arduous if the development were proposed to have a pitch roof.
View from Branksome Gardens:
The roof deck is not visible from the street level at Branksome Gardens due its 17.2m setback form the front boundary. This perspective, as depicted in Figure 1, demonstrates that the approved front façade appears higher than the roof deck itself. The roof hatch is further setback at 19.8m with the start of the highest point setback at 21.6m.
The lots on the east of Branksome Gardens sit far lower than the lots to on west and therefore there is no impact to view of the ocean for lots. The photo taken from the roof deck to the east (Figure 2) demonstrates that only roof tops can be seen from this area. Therefore, no views of significance are impacted.
View from west toward east:
The only impacted lots to the west of the property is 16 and 18 Challenger Parade. These lots are significantly lower in natural ground level and have frontages and views of significance to the west towards the ocean. Therefore, the view to the east is secondary and can only be achieved via building well above the maximum height limit.

16 Challenger Parade (three storey home built on top of its highest natural ground level) has clearly built well above the 7.5m height limit for a flat roof development.
18 Challenger Parade is an existing two storey home with pitched roof. Figure 3 clearly demonstrates that the already approved development at 110 Branksome Gardens would mitigate views to the east unless a structure well above the maximum height limit were to be approved.

ROOF GARDEN The second proposed amendment we are addressing is the proposed roof garden. Throughout the building process, the landowner established an area of flat roof space that was not being utilised off the master bedroom ensuite. The proposed roof garden is seen as an opportunity to promote some green space as an outlook from the ensuite area. This area is proposed to be screened by an articulated 80% solid feature screen to provide privacy for the neighbouring dwelling at 112 Branksome Gardens. This privacy screen which will be lined internally by greenery will screen the approved obscure window further.
The roof garden with the proposed screen complies with the deemed to comply standards of the R-Codes adopted under LPS1. The area of non-compliance that relate to this submission is lot boundary setback to the screen wall. Lot boundary setback in the Town of Cambridge is administered by the Cl. 5.1.3 of the R-Codes and adopted under LPS1. As this roof garden is being determined by the Town of Cambridge as a habitable room with a major opening, the deemed to comply standard of the R-Codes requires a 2m lot boundary setback. The proposed lot boundary setback is 1.6m, however, is determined to be 1.5m when considered in addition to the ground floor wall and therefore, the design principles should be complied with.
Table 2 – Design Assessment – Lot Boundary Setback
Clause Design Principal (DP) Assessment against DP DP Met?
5.1.3 P3.1
Buildings set back from lot boundaries so as to:
• reduce impacts of
building bulk on adjoining properties;
The existing approved structure displays a compliant 19m long wall with an additional 9.5m of glazing towards the rear of the property. The feature 20% perforated steel screen will provide not only articulation to the side of the property, but will also break up the appearance of monotony and bulkiness of the existing wall. Compound this with the greenery of the roof garden and this will reduce the existing bulk of the wall when viewed by 112 Branksome Gardens.
Figure 4 is a representation of the type of proposed feature screen wall the land owner is looking to install.
Further, the average setback along this entire wall is close to 3m.
YES

Clause Design Principal (DP) Assessment against DP DP Met?
• provide adequate direct
sun and ventilation to the building and open spaces on the site and adjoining properties; and
The proposed screen wall will not have any impact on the buildings access to sun light and will in fact promote the use of an area that has limited but some access to outdoor sunlight. As depicted in Attachment 1, the cast shadowing is created by the top of the approved first floor wall and not by the screen wall. Therefore, there is no impact on sunlight to the neighbouring property created by the screen wall.
The prevailing breeze in this area is the south westerly and therefore in addition to the structures 20% permeability, the orientation of the terrace ensures no impact on the ventilation of the neighbouring property. Further, the ability for this area to be used as a roof garden, enables the proposed ensuite door to the roof garden to be open and allowing the cross breeze and ventilation into the house; reducing energy costs and improving sustainability.
YES
• minimise the extent ofoverlooking and resultant loss of privacy on adjoining properties.
The proposed amendment improves privacy for both the landowner and the neighbouring property by installing the screen as a fixed 80% solid structure that also doesn’t incorporate the greenery that will be developed internally. This meets the standard definition of screening.
YES

CONCLUSION From the above it is clear that the proposed roof garden and roof hatch amendments meet the Design Principles set out in Cl 5.1.3 and 5.1.6 of the R-Codes adopted under the Town of Cambridge Local Planning Scheme No. 1.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this additional submission of support. We therefore request the Council support the proposed amended roof hatch and roof garden based on meeting the design principles of the R-Codes.

ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification and Neighbour Comment DV17.58 - LOT 809 (NO. 1) TURRIFF ROAD, FLOREAT APPLICANT'S JUSTIFICATION 1. I understand from your representative over the phone that the HN3 objection was
based on Google aerial photograph that my plot is already overbuilt with little open space and in particular it was assumed that the existing brick and tile shed at the rear was to remain. These are in error in that-
• I believe that the Google photo is not appropriate for use in conjunction with the
R-Code. • The shed will be demolished along with other storage sheds because they would
no longer be required due to that the underside of the elevated dwelling would have a cover area alone that would well be in excess of those structures that are to be demolished.
2. In my endeavour to conform with the current R-Code guidelines on this application and in keeping with my Ongoing Professional Development (OPD)I completed a course on Residential Design Codes of Western Australia conducted by Master Builders Association in association with Bezant Consulting on 2 March 2017. I subsequently learnt that the Code in force has most recently been revised. Accordingly, I have constructed a new design per the guidance and outlined as follows:
• The Open space as shown on the plan is 34% which is well under the 55% that
is permitted under the current R-Code at 3.1 Table 1. • The average rear boundary setback is 1600 and in excess of the 1200 that is
required under R-Code Table 2a. Also, the adjoining neighbour HN25 Pearson PI. has not objected in any event.
• I understand that HN3 Turriff Rd objected to the proposal due to the side setback. But I suggest that this is unfounded because the average is 2450 which exceeds the 1900 under the Code.
• I understand that it is the Town’s requirement that a granny flat dwelling is not to exceed 70M2. According it has been reduced to 57M2 in area although the proposed Transportable installation as a whole will cover 79M2 which has included a store-room/gardener day-room.
I learnt from the course that the Town is entitled to make its own rules but consultations are encouraged. In this regard it may be relevant for me to point out that this is my retirement project for illustrating to members of my family, relatives and friends in Perth, interstate and overseas of my ability in building and landscape designs, I would thus be grateful if you could assist so that my desire could be fulfilled. NEIGHBOUR COMMENT Submission One (No. 3 Turriff Road) We advise that we have no objection to the side set back as illustrated in the plans. We do however, object to the proposed building exceeding the maximum plot ratio of 70 square meters. The owner of 1 Turriff Road is building a large double story building to the front of the property and we note that the planned oversize ancillary dwelling is also elevated. It is our concern as the owners of the neighbouring property that the combined development in terms of scale will have a significant overbearing impact on our property.
ATTACHMENT: Summary of Applicant's Justification and Neighbour Comment DV17.58 - LOT 809 (NO. 1) TURRIFF ROAD, FLOREAT We also draw your attention to the fact that the owner of 1 Turriff Road has, over the past few years built other ancillary buildings used for storage and has also elected to store large items on the roofs of these buildings. These ancillary buildings do not appear to be shown on the plans as viewed. We request that a Town of Cambridge Compliance Officer attend on site to view these ancillary buildings prior to considering this development application.

Item Council
Comment
Relevant R-Code Design Principles Response
1 Side Setback
(right/east): the
minimum required
setback for the
proposed living
room wall from
the left/eastern
boundary is 1.7
metres, the plans
submitted show a
nil setback.
5.1.3 Lot boundary setback
P3.1 Buildings set back from lot boundaries so as to:
• reduce impacts of building bulk on adjoining properties;
• provide adequate direct sun and ventilation to the
building and open spaces on the site and adjoining
properties; and
• minimise the extent of overlooking and resultant loss of
privacy on adjoining properties.
P3.2 Buildings built up to boundaries (other than the
street boundary) where this:
• makes more effective use of space for enhanced privacy
for the occupant/s or outdoor living areas;
• does not compromise the design principle contained in
clause 5.1.3 P3.1;
• does not have any adverse impact on the amenity of
the adjoining property;
• ensures direct sun to major openings to habitable
rooms and outdoor living areas for adjoining properties is
not restricted; and
• positively contributes to the prevailing development
context and streetscape.
5.4.1 Visual privacy
P1.1 Minimal direct overlooking of active habitable
spaces and outdoor living areas of adjacent dwellings
achieved through:
• building layout and location;
• design of major openings;
• landscape screening of outdoor active habitable spaces;
and/or
• location of screening devices.
P1.2 Maximum visual privacy to side and rear boundaries
through measures such as:
We argue that a nil setback on the eastern boundary is consistent with Design Principles 5.1.3, 5.4.1 &
5.4.2:
• The current existing building has a nil setback of 13.5m overall. After demolition of the lean-to,
construction of the courtyard and new extension the building will have a nil setback of 16.0m
overall. This is an overall increase of only 2.5m, which we argue is minor given the context
described further below.
• The proposed 16.0m overall nil setback on the eastern boundary is an appropriate urban
response to the development context and consistent with immediate surrounding properties on
Tower St. Refer supplementary drawing ‘SK-A0002 Setback Overlay’ (attached).
• The incorporation and location of a courtyard on the eastern boundary reduces the impact of
bulk on the adjoining property whilst providing significant amenity and useable open living
space to the dwelling.
• The proposed development positively contributes to the prevailing development context by
retaining and enhancing the existing 1905 Federation Style building. The proposed extension is
modest in scale and seeks to be consistent with the scale and character of existing and historical
development along Tower St. The proposed building height is approximately 680mm less than
the existing Federation Style boundary wall.
• Proposed windows and openings are located perpendicular to the side boundary, mitigating
overlooking possibilities whilst maximising solar and daylight access to the habitable rooms of
the dwelling.
• The design response enhances privacy for both parties by eliminating existing overlooking and
privacy issues related to the existing rear outdoor living area at 146 Tower St. This area currently
has direct views and sightlines that overlook the rear of the property, negatively impacting the
amenity and privacy of the owners. The proposed design response seeks to mitigate this issue
for both parties.

• offsetting the location of ground and first floor windows
so that viewing is oblique rather than direct;
• building to the boundary where appropriate;
• setting back the first floor from the side boundary;
• providing higher or opaque and fixed windows; and/or
• screen devices (including landscaping, fencing, obscure
glazing, timber screens, external blinds, window hoods
and shutters).
5.4.2 Solar access for adjoining sites
P2.1 Effective solar access for the proposed development
and protection of the solar access.
P2.2 Development designed to protect solar access for
neighbouring properties taking account the potential to
overshadow existing:
• outdoor living areas;
• north facing major openings to habitable rooms, within
15 degrees of north in each direction; or
• roof mounted solar collectors.
• The proposed courtyard has a 2.2m high privacy screen providing visual privacy between this
outdoor living area and the adjacent property.
• Proposed setback does not restrict or impede solar access for neighbours, refer drawing
‘DA-1100(00) Shadow Analysis Plan’.
• The proposed nil setback to one side of the lot is an effective use of space on a narrow block
(10m).
2 Side Setback
(left/west): the
minimum required
setback for the
proposed kitchen
and dining wall
from the
left/western side
boundary is 1.7
metres, the plans
submitted show a
setback of 1
metre.
5.1.3 Lot boundary setback
5.4.1 Visual privacy
5.4.2 Solar access for adjoining sites
We argue that the proposed setback on the western boundary is consistent with Design Principles
5.1.3, 5.4.1 & 5.4.2:
• The existing side access and setbacks for the existing Federation buildings at 148 and 150 Tower
St are between 750-850mm wide, limiting the capacity for access down the side of the building.
The proposed setbacks for new works (1030mm) are consistent with the setback for new works
undertaken at 150 Tower St (1060mm).
• Proposed setback does not restrict or impede solar access for neighbours, refer drawing
‘DA-1100(00) Shadow Analysis Plan’.
• The proposed setback is an effective use of space on a narrow block (10m).
• Proposed windows and openings are located perpendicular to the side boundary, mitigating
overlooking possibilities whilst maximising solar and daylight access to the dwelling.

3 Open Space: the
minimum required
area of open
space is 45
percent of the
total lot area, the
plans submitted
show an area of
43.5 percent.
5.1.4 Open space
P4 Development incorporates suitable open space for its
context to:
• reflect the existing and/or desired streetscape
character or as outlined under the local planning
framework;
• provide access to natural sunlight for the dwelling;
• reduce building bulk on the site, consistent with the
expectations of the applicable density code and/or
as outlined in the local planning framework;
• provide an attractive setting for the buildings,
landscape, vegetation and streetscape;
• provide opportunities for residents to use space
external to the dwelling for outdoor pursuits and
access within/around the site; and
• provide space for external fixtures and essential
facilities.
5.3.1 Outdoor living areas
P1.1 Outdoor living areas which provide spaces:
• capable of use in conjunction with a habitable room
of the dwelling;
• open to winter sun and ventilation; and
• optimise use of the northern aspect of the site.
P1.2 Balconies or equivalent outdoor living areas capable
of use in conjunction with a habitable room of each
dwelling, and if possible, open to winter sun.
1. Calculations have been clarified on amended drawing ‘DA-A1000(01) Site Plan’.
2. Note that the courtyard has been included in the open space calculations. We argue that the
courtyard should be counted as open space as it demonstrates compliance with Design
Principles 5.1.4 & 5.3.1:
• Courtyard is a highly accessible and useable outdoor living area located adjacent the
kitchen, dining and living areas and is capable of use in conjunction with these rooms.
• Courtyard has generous dimensions (2.85m x 3.95m, big enough to fit a table for 8 people)
and will provide considerable amenity to the living, kitchen and dining room areas.
• Courtyard provides significant access to natural sunlight for the dwelling, particularly the
adjacent bedroom which currently does not have access to daylight from the north.
• Courtyard provides the opportunity for cross ventilation through the living areas, as well as
providing ventilation to the adjacent bedroom.
• Courtyard reduces building bulk on the site, particularly on the eastern boundary.
• Courtyard provides an attractive buffer space between existing and new dwelling. It
enhances the heritage building character by exposing and restoring the original Federation
building wall to the south.
4 Fencing in Front
Setback Area: the
maximum
permissible height
of a picket fence
(or similar) is 1.2
metres, the plans
submitted show a
height of up to 1.3
metres.
5.2.4 Street walls and fences
P4 Front fences are low or restricted in height to permit
surveillance (as per Clause 5.2.3) and enhance
streetscape (as per clause 5.1.2)
• Drawing amended to address feedback. Refer drawing ‘DA-A2000(01) Elevations’.

5 Car Parking: the
minimum of one
car space is
required on site,
the plans
submitted do not
show a car space.
5.3.3 Parking
P3.1 Adequate car parking is to be provided on-site in
accordance with projected need related to:
• the type, number and size of dwellings;
• the availability of on-street and other off-street parking;
and
• the proximity of the proposed development to public
transport and other facilities.
• This is an existing condition and is common to adjacent properties. No secondary street or
right-of-way access to the lot exists.
• Parking permits are currently issued by the Town of Cambridge for on-street parking in
recognition of this existing condition.
• Incorporation of on-site parking would require demolition of the existing 1905 Federation Style
dwelling. This would negatively impact the streetscape and be considered an inappropriate
outcome.
6 Retaining Walls
and Filling of
Land: the
maximum
permissible height
of a retaining wall
and filling of land
on a side
boundary is 500
millimetres, the
plans submitted
show a height of
approximately 640
millimetres on the
western side
boundary.
5.3.7 Site works
P7.1 Development that considers and responds to the
natural features of the site and requires minimal
excavation/fill.
P7.2 Where excavation/fill is necessary, all finished levels
respecting the natural ground level at the lot boundary of
the site and as viewed from the street.
• The design intent is for proposed levels to be less than 500 millimetres above the natural
ground level. Refer drawing ‘DA-A2001[00] Elevation & Section / 01 West Elevation’.

Responses to letter from Erica Smith, “INVITATION TO COMMENT - LOT 78 (NO. 148) TOWER STREET, WEST LEEDERVILLE – ADDITIONS AND ALTERATIONS”,
received 15/03/2017.
Item Comments Relevant R-Code Design Principles Response
1 My main objection is the noncompliant nil setback
proposed for the eastern boundary. As per your
letter and the State Planning Policy Residential
Design Codes (R-Codes), the minimum required
setback is 1.7m. I am willing to compromise and
accept a 1.0m setback at this location as per the
minimum in Tables 2a and 2b of the R-Codes
given the small property frontage and similar
concessions that have been granted to myself and
144 Tower Street during recent additions and
alterations. Although there is an existing
boundary wall built circa 1905, I am unwilling to
accept the proposed nil setback over an
additional 8.5m length. This will have significant
impact on my rear open deck with a 3.85m wall
effectively at arm’s length.
5.1.3 Lot boundary setback
5.4.1 Visual privacy
5.4.2 Solar access for adjoining sites
Refer response to Council Item 1.
2 In accordance with the Dividing Fences Act 1961
the rear existing dividing fence (not shown) and
the front existing dividing fence (shown as brick
fence) cannot be removed/altered by any one
party as they are considered joint property. The
rear eastern diving fence cannot be removed
without my consent which again reinforces my
objection to the proposed nil setback. I also do
not give consent for the front eastern brick fence
to be demolished. This brick fence separating the
front yards of 146 and 148 Tower Street is
important for privacy and is a structure that both
myself and the Broezes wish to retain.
Town of Cambridge Town Planning Scheme
Policy 3.1. Streetscape
Fence Replacement in the Street Setback Area
• Where a non-complying over-height or
solid fence is to be wholly or partially
demolished, an identical or similar fence
cannot be erected in its place. The
replacement fence must comply with this
policy.
Fencing in the Primary Street Setback Area (Ref:
R-Codes 5.2.4 - C4 and 6.2.2 - C2)
This section applies to fencing or gates
anywhere in the primary street setback area
including the front and side boundary.
• The proposed front eastern dividing fence replacement is consistent with
Town of Cambridge Town Planning Scheme Policy 3.1. Streetscape.
• The existing rear eastern dividing fence is not located on the survey
boundary with a negative balance to 148 Tower St.
• The existing rear eastern diving fence is made from asbestos and is
dilapidated and deteriorating. It is proposed to be replaced as part of the
development.
• Proposed rear fence materials clarified, refer drawing
‘DA-A1000(01) Site Plan’.

3 A more minor concern is the impact of the
proposed additions to the visual privacy to my
laundry. As shown on the proposed drawings, the
glass windows and door to the courtyard create a
direct line-of-sight into my laundry. This has been
discussed with Grace and Carsten and a minor
modification to increase the boundary fence to
2.2m was acknowledged as an easy solution at
this location to maintain both our privacies.
5.4.1 Visual privacy • We note that the laundry currently has a direct line of sight onto the rear
of 148 Tower St, compromising privacy and amenity for occupants. This
is a considerable existing issue that will be mitigated as an outcome of
the development.
• Drawing amended to increase screen height. Refer drawings
‘DA-A1001(01) Floor Plan’ & ‘DA-A2000(01) Elevations’.
4 I am sure you are also aware of the significant
errors in the Open Space Diagram on the
proposed development plans. In accordance with
the R-Codes, the zoning of 148 Tower Street
requires 45% open space. The diagram provided
reports 49% open space but includes the front
existing veranda, the proposed courtyard and the
roofed section of the proposed rear deck. These
are not open spaces in accordance with the R-
Codes definition having more than two enclosed
sides, 148 Tower Street - Building - Final
Comments covered with an impermeable material.
As such, the proposed development plans
represent only 37% open space. This is also pretty
evident when comparing the building envelope
with the plans at my property and 144 Tower
Street.
5.1.4 Open space
5.3.1 Outdoor living areas
Refer response to Council Item 3.
In addition, we note that the rear deck area is predominantly open on three
sides as shown on drawings ‘DA-A2000(01) Elevations’ & ‘DA-A2001(00)
Elevation & Section’.

ITEM 2 - Local Government Inventory and Heritage List
Prue Griffin and Gemma Smith of Hocking Heritage Studio provided a presentation on the Local Government Inventory (Municipal Inventory) and Heritage List Review Process covering basic principles, aims of review process and management categories.
MEETING NOTES
DV17.60 - Att 1 of 2 - TPSRSC Meeting Notes
Elena Cope of Creating Communities presented on the proposed community engagement program to input into the list of heritage places on the Inventory which is proposed to commence later this month. The presentation covered aims and objectives, key messages, schedule of key activities and presented community engagement materials (survey, DL flyer and fact sheet).
Comments and questions from elected members:-
• Can places be excluded based on the owner not wanting the place on the Inventory?The consultant advised that this is a decision of Council but in most cases there needs tobe a sufficient reason such as an error in the heritage value assessment of the property.
• What categories of the Inventory are put onto the Heritage List? Are there certain rulesabout this?The consultant advised that this is also a decision of Council but in most cases Category1 and 2 properties are transferred to the Heritage List. The State Heritage Office isaiming for greater consistency across local governments in this regard.
• What offsets for inclusion on Heritage List/ incentives to landowners would apply?This would be outlined in a Council Policy. EM discussed the need to put properties thatare on the State Register onto the Heritage List so that it could provide assistance tothese landowners.
• How is a 'heritage place' defined?The Heritage Act sets out the definition of a Heritage Place. It may be a specific buildingbut could be a collection of buildings, streets, archeological site, trees etc.
Action - Add to FAQs to address above matters and clearly define the difference in what it means for development if on Local Government Inventory versus the Heritage List.
Council Policy There was discussion as to whether a planning policy should be developed for Council to have a position on the above matters prior to community engagement. As per standard practice, Category 1 and 2 places would most likely be included on a future Heritage List. The Town would circulate the State Heritage Office's standard policy which would generally form the framework for decision making. A report will be presented to Council in due course outlining the approach and to cover incentives.
Action - Include a link to the draft State Heritage Office Policy with FAQs and prepare report to Council on approach and heritage incentives (future)
Education is a key part of the process to address concerns about heritage implications in the community. There is a need to convey that heritage listing does not entirely restrict redevelopment or that it will result in dilapidated/structural unsound buildings being required to be retained.
Community engagement materials (FAQs, DL flyer and survey questions)
In accordance with new protocol endorsed by Council at its Meeting 26th April, community engagement materials are to be circulated to Elected Members for approval by absolute majority and two days provided for this to occur.
EM gave advice on the format of DL flyer. The instructions will be given to the consultant and the updated version redistributed to EM for final approval. The FAQs are also to be updated to cover matters as mentioned above.
DV17.60 - Att 1 of 2 - TPSRSC Meeting Notes
The survey is also to link to information about the Information Session to ensure respondents are aware of the opportunity to attend the session to assist in providing feedback.
Of note, the community engagement schedule may require amendment should final approval of material be delayed.
Action: Modify DL flyer, FAQs and survey and circulate to Elected Members for approval in accordance with the above.
Prue Griffin and Gemma Smith (Hocking Heritage Consultants) and Elena Cope (Creating Communities) left the meeting.
Cr O'Connor JP left the meeting.
ITEM 3 – Other Business
The Strategic Projects list which outlines current, future and pending projects was presented for discussion and the projects below were pulled out for discussion. Of note, the projects are currently pending or future and Planning Services is not currently resourced to substantially progress these projects at this time.
Floreat District Centre Activity Plan Comment that this plan should be driven by the landowner. The project will be dependent on direction from the Local Planning Strategy.
Ocean Village Centre Plan Pindan have purchased the Ocean Village Shopping Centre and the intent is to work with the Town to undertake planning for the future of this site. Parking in City Beach local centres was identified as a key issue and parking requirements may need to be reviewed if centres have a number of hospitality uses.
Short - stay accommodation Policy The Director Planning and Development commented on the approach taken by City of Subiaco to address AirBnB and similar operations. There is merit in not preparing a policy given the limited effect a planning approval has in these circumstances. A Bed and Breakfast can be applied for (full breakfast not required) and any more than six occupants is a lodging house which is not permitted. The Administration will review various options and report to Council in due course.
Public Art The priority of this dealing with this topic should be increased with an option to take cash where there is a disagreement over the proposal or cash in lieu taken in all cases. The Director Planning and Development also mentioned the benefit of the Town obtaining independent review of the artwork.
A Public Art Strategy is needed to direct how and where this cash contributions are spent. The Committee saw value in progressing a Public Art Strategy.
Waste Policy This Policy is to address waste disposal for multiple dwelling developments. Of note, there are already some provisions in the West Leederville Precinct Policy which could apply to all large developments in all areas. The Town needs a clear policy to defend recommendations to DAP.
DV17.60 - Att 1 of 2 - TPSRSC Meeting Notes
Local Planning Strategy The Director Planning and Development provided an update on recent discussions with Taylor Burrell Barnett to discuss the timeframes for this project. There is a need to provide sufficient time to develop the preferred scenario so that it responds to the community engagement and to undertake sufficient analysis of the proposal.
The CEO indicated that various tasks undertaken by Taylor Burrell Barnett such as the extent of the recent community engagement exercise will result in significant variations to the original contract amount agreed by Council.
Meeting closed at 7.00 pm

February 8 2017
To the Town of Cambridge
Hello Sue Waite
The Town of Cambridge granted a lease to the Lake Monger Community Garden
Inc. on April 1 2016.
Stage one of the community garden began in September 2016. A 2.2metre high
fence was erected on a site about 250m² in size. There are sixteen raised garden
beds 800mm high. A water pipe was installed from the toilet block south of the site.
The water pipe feeds drip irrigation to the 16 beds.
The raised garden beds have been filled with builder’s sand upto 500mm from the
ground. A plastic sheet has been placed between the ground and the base of the
beds. There will be 300mm of vege mix soil filling the top of the beds. This will be
completed by April 2017. We will then plant vegetables in the beds and consider
planting fruit trees in pots.
Currently there are 10 members. Once the beds have been filled there will
undoubtedly be more interest shown by the community.
We will hold regular member’s meeting to discuss grant applications, community
engagement and planning the garden’s immediate future.
Over the next twelve months our vision is to plant mature native trees on the
northern side in order to create shade, and garden according to permaculture
principles. We will set up compost bays and consider a worm farm.
Depending on grant approvals the following projects will take place in the next twelve
months.
They will include; a pizza oven, frog pond, tool shed, barbeque and patio area
(subject to council approval), worm farms and rain water tank off the toilet block. We
will provide seating for rest and seating to be placed in such a manner as to be
suitable for social events, and expand the compost stations to reduce waste and be
more self-sufficient.
DV17.61 - Progress Letter - Community Garden
We will further engage with the community when we build the communal beds that
will be full of herbs and fruit trees for the general public to access and consume. We
will provide beds for community partners such as Telethon Speech and Hearing, and
other groups.
Yours sincerely
Behrooz Eslam (convenor)
