SITE APPLICATION HISTORY

Since the late 1950s to 2016, the current site was part of a service station located at Nos. 235 – 245 Burns Bay Road. Prior to this, the site was vacant and undeveloped. In 2016, the site was

subdivided from the service station. Environmental investigations were completed to support the subdivision and an audit by an NSW EPA accredited contaminated land auditor concluded the site was suitable for ongoing land use. The service station was subsequently decommissioned and redeveloped. As part of the decommissioning works, a waste oil underground storage tank located in the southwest corner of subject site was removed.

 

Since 2016, the site has been used as a storage space for shipping containers, automobiles, caravans, trailers, and other structural and commercial items associated with the demolition of old service station building such as cabinets, cold storage equipment, machine tools, etc.

 

Recent History

 

DA161/2021

Construction of multi-storey building used for shop-top housing purposes and comprising 2 commercial tenancies with 2 storeys of residential flats above, underground basement parking and landscaping works. Approved via the Lane Cove Planning Panel on 13 May 2022.

REFERRALS

 

Development Engineer – Part O – Stormwater Management

Not required.

 

Assessment - Environmental planning and assessment act 1979

 

provisions of any lep, dcp, SEPP or regulation (Section 4.15(1)(a))

The proposal is permissible and does not raise any issues in regard to the Lane Cove Local Environmental Plan 2009.

 

The proposal complies with the Floor Space Ratio development standard. The proposal also complies with the Height development standard.

 

Other Planning Instruments

 

SEPP (Resilience and Hazards) 2021

The subject site and adjoining sites are zoned for residential purposes. Given the types of uses permissible within the residential zones, it is unlikely that the site would be contaminated.

 

APPLICABLE REGULATIONS

The Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2021 indicates that the standards for demolition and removal of materials should meet with AS 2601-2001 and therefore any consent would require the application of a relevant condition seeking compliance with this Standard.

 

Variations to Council’s Codes/PolicIes

The modification application does not propose any variation to Council’s codes or policies.

 

IMPACTS OF DEVELOPMENT (Section 4.15(1)(b))

The proposal would not adversely impact neighbouring properties or the public domain in terms of overshadowing, visual privacy, acoustic privacy, or traffic and parking.

 

A 3m setback from the street front boundary would be of no benefit to the streetscape, nor would it be viable to impose upon the commercial tenancies at the ground floor of the development. The transition between the public pathway and commercial premises would be disrupted by a 3m ‘gap’ Council refers to as ‘dead space’. An increase in the internal area of the abovementioned tenancies would result in a more viable arrangement of floor area.  The removal of the 3m setback would not adversely impact the relationship of the proposed development with Burns Bay Road, or the character of the shop-top housing model. The amended development would satisfy the objectives of the E1 zone.

 

SUITABILITY OF SITE (Section 4.15(1)(c))

The subject site would be suitable for the proposed development as the use is permissible within the Zone. The proposed development would positively contribute to the amenity of the surrounding area and the subject site would not constrain the development or neighbouring sites.

 

RESPONSE TO NOTIFICATION (Section 4.15(1)(d))

Not required.

 

PUBLIC INTEREST (Section 4.15(1)(e))

The proposal would not have an unreasonable impact on neighbouring properties or the public domain with regard to the Lane Cove LEP 2009, Lane Cove DCP 2009 or any other environmental planning instruments. Therefore, approval of this application would not be contrary to the public interest.

 

CONCLUSION

The matters in relation to Section 4.55 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 have been satisfied.

 

The application complies with the Floor Space Ratio development standard of the Lane Cove LEP 2009. The proposal also complies with the Height development standard of the Lane Cove LEP 2009.

 

The application generally meets with the Part C Residential Development Objectives of the Lane Cove Development Control Plan 2009.

 

On balance as the proposed development would be reasonable it is therefore recommended for approval.

SECTION 4.55 ASSESSMENT

 

The proposed modification has been assessed against the provisions of Section 4.55(1A) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act, 1979. The proposed amendments are minor in nature and would not alter relevant compliance requirements. The proposed development as amended would result in ‘substantially the same’ development with minor environmental impacts having regards to the provisions of the ADG, LCLEP 2009 and LCDCP. The proposed modifications are minor in nature and would have negligible impacts.

 

The proposal is minor as the potential environmental impacts of the proposed amendments are consistent with those envisaged under the original DA and can be considered under the provisions of Section 4.55 of the EP&A Act. The proposed modifications are summarised by the following table;

The proposed modification does not change appearance of the final development with the exception of changes to planter boxes, new batten screens on some windows for thermal comfort and additional works to roof top communal areas which will not be visible from the public domain. All changes are minor and will have minimal impact.

 

The proposed modification will result in substantially the same development as approved under DA161/2021 (as modified). The proposed modification will not have any impact on the nature, scale, the location, or form of the approved buildings. The nature of uses contained within the building remains entirely consistent with DA161/2021. The development’s compliance with Council’s policies and controls does not change with the proposal.

 

The proposal remains compliant with the relevant NCC requirements. The development as modified is substantially the same as when originally approved for the purposes of Section 4.55 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 and would have no implications upon the use, overall design, and public domain.

 

provisions of any lep, dcp, SEPP or regulation (Section 4.15(1)(a))

The proposal is permissible and does not raise any issues in regard to the Lane Cove Local Environmental Plan 2009.

 

The proposal complies with the Floor Space Ratio development standard. The proposal also complies with the Height development standard.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Other Planning Instruments

 

SEPP (Resilience and Hazards) 2021

The subject site and adjoining sites are zoned under E1 Local Centre purposes (see LCLEP). Given the types of uses permissible within the zone, it is unlikely that the site would be contaminated.

 

APPLICABLE REGULATIONS

The Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2021 indicates that the standards for demolition and removal of materials should meet with AS 2601-2001 and therefore any consent would require the application of a relevant condition seeking compliance with this Standard.

 

Variations to Council’s Codes/PolicIes

The modification application does not propose any variations to Councils codes or policies.

 

IMPACTS OF DEVELOPMENT (Section 4.15(1)(b))

The proposal would not adversely impact neighbouring properties or the public domain in terms of overshadowing, visual privacy, acoustic privacy, or traffic and parking. The amended proposal presents a development outcome that is consistent with the objectives of the relevant planning controls.

 

SUITABILITY OF SITE (Section 4.15(1)(c))

The subject site would be suitable for the proposed development as the use is permissible within the Zone. The proposed development would positively contribute to the amenity of the surrounding area and the subject site would not constrain the development or neighbouring sites.

 

RESPONSE TO NOTIFICATION (Section 4.15(1)(d))

The development application was notified in accordance with Council’s policies and no submissions were received.

 

PUBLIC INTEREST (Section 4.15(1)(e))

The proposal would not have an unreasonable impact on neighbouring properties or the public domain with regard to the Lane Cove LEP 2009, Lane Cove DCP 2009 or any other environmental planning instruments. Therefore, approval of this application would not be contrary to the public interest.

 

CONCLUSION

The matters in relation to Section 4.15 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 have been satisfied.

 

The application complies with the Floor Space Ratio development standard of the Lane Cove LEP 2009. The proposal also complies with the Height development standard of the Lane Cove LEP 2009.

 

The application generally meets with the Part C Residential Development Objectives of the Lane Cove Development Control Plan 2009.

 

On balance as the proposed development would be reasonable it is therefore recommended for approval.
