Non-residential land uses within the ground floor level areas of buildings and foyers within residential buildings should be designed to enable surveillance from public land to the inside of the building at night. E:ntrances to mutti-storey buildings should: (a) be oriented towards the street (b) be dearly identifiable (c) provide shelter, a sense of personal address and transitional space around the entry (ci) provide separate access for residential and non-residential land uses Dwellings should provide a covered storage area of not less than 8 cubic metres in one or more of the following areas: (a) in the dwelling (but not including a habitable room) (b) in a garage, carport or outbuilding (c) within an on-site communal facility. PDC - Principle Development Control 0 - Objective Complies Complies Complies Complies Transportation and Access PDC23 Development should be provided with safe and convenient access which: Complies (a) avoids unreasonable interference with the flow of traffic on adjoining roads (b) provides appropriate separation distances from existing roads or level crossings (c) accommodates the type and volume of traffic likely to be generated by the development or land use and minimises induced traffic through over-provision (d) is sited and designed to minimise any adverse impacts on the occupants of and visitors to neighbouring properties RESIDENTIAL ZONE Cheltenham Park Policy Area 22 Desired Character Statement This policy area is a residential infill site, formerly occupied by the Cheltenham Racecourse, located within close proximity of the Woodville District Centre, Woodville High School, St Clair Oval and Recreation Centre and the Woodville Railway Station. The policy area will be developed in accordance with the Concept Plan Map ChSt/18 Cheltenham Park and - Woodville Medium Density and comprise a broad range of dwelling types, including medium to high density housing, and areas of open space. It is also envisaged that the policy area will include a mixed use development precinct integrated with a passenger rail transit station. A total of 35 per cent of the policy area (excluding the railway corridor), which is in excess of 17 hectares, will be retained for open space, with at least 11 hectares located in one or two parcels. The area of open space will incorporate: (a) a range of recreation and sporting activities of both a passive and active nature (b) stormwater management areas in the form of wetlands, creek lines and permanent water bodies, including an aquifer storage and recovery system (c) an east-west linear open space corridor, linking the policy area to Woodville Road (d) north-south open space corridors linking Torrens Road to the Railway reserve (e) smaller parks providing local open space needs, and an attractive setting for higher density housing forms and any buffer requirements (f) water sensitive urban design features and sustainable landscapes to enhance biodiversity. Open space provided in the form of reserves (excluding roads, road verges, buffer areas, and entrances and similar components) will not only help provide an attractive focal point and setting for high density dwellings in the policy area, particularly taller buildings, but also encourage a sense of place for residents and visitors. All open space PDC - Principle Development Control 0 - Objective Complies areas will support a network of pedestrian and bicycle paths located throughout the site to facilitate access and linkages with adjacent facilities, public transport services and areas. It is important that the amount of useable space available for the public is maximised, the amount of land used for ornamental purposes such as landscape and entrance statements is minimised and that it is accessible to all ages and those with disabilities, and are located and designed to encourage new and existing residential communities to gather. Land division must be planned to support open space and movement networks. The movement networks and development configuration are to be based on a modified grid pattern to achieve good interconnectivity and will: (a) connect key areas of open space within the policy area (b) establish links with open space, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and to services and facilities such as schools, shopping precincts, community establishments and health services in neighbouring suburbs (c) provide easy access to public transport routes (d) ensure bicycle/pedestrian pathways are designed and landscaped so as to be easily identifiable, accessible and safe (e) minimise potential conflicts between vehicular traffic and bicycle/pedestrian pathways (f) reduce potential vehicular traffic intrusion into adjoining residential neighbourhoods (g) facilitate major neighbourhood entry and exit points at Torrens Road and Cheltenham Parade. It is expected that the public road system will mostly encircle reserves and open space areas. Allotments with a direct frontage to a public reserve and open space is envisaged provided rear vehicular access is available to the allotments. In addition, where an allotment immediately adjoins public open space, clear, safe and efficient pedestrian and bicycle access will be provided on the open space land, along with adequate visitor parking. The policy area will be characterised by an integrated residential subdivision offering a wide range of housing types, with multi-storey, medium to high density housing forms comprising semi-detached and row dwellings and residential flat buildings, with an overall density of at least 20 dwellings per hectare achieved. Medium to high density housing will dominate areas of high public amenity including locations adjacent to major open spaces, public transport routes, local shops and public facilities, and within the southern part of the site in order to: (a) provide an aesthetically pleasant setting for those dwellings (b) ensure residents with reduced private open space areas have easy access to public reserves (c) facilitate access to services and facilities for a greater number of people (d) provide a sense of space for residents (e) improve opportunities for passive energy conservation in buildings (f) facilitate passive surveillance of adjacent reserves and corridors (g) reduce potential for overshadowing and overlooking of any adjacent lower level residential development and private open space areas (h) encourage public transport use, cycling and walking. Areas of medium to high density development will be supported by a subdivisiOn layout that demonstrates a capacity to accommodate multi-storey buildings to maximise the number of households taking advantage of the sites attributes, the delivery of affordable and social housing products, and access to smaller household 4 PDC - Principle Development Control 0 - Objective formations. At least 15 per cent of the housing developed within the policy area will be for affordable and high needs housing. The built form character will be established through appropriate design, including interesting roof forms such as high pitches and parapets, high ceilings, building articulation, recessed vehicle garaging, and appropriate landscaping. The siting and design of buildings needs to also promote cohesive streetscapes whilst allowing for variety in housing form and style. This can be achieved through attention to scale and bulk of buildings relative to one another and to the allotment size and to the way in which buildings address the Street frontage (both Street frontages in the case of corner allotments). While front fencing and landscaping (or a combination of these elements) will provide delineation between public and private spaces, the inclusion of front verandahs and low front fencing will also be encouraged to promote street interaction and activity, to provide for a safe environment through passive surveillance and to emphasise thermal efficiency. The use of iconic built form and scale will be considered to emphasise major arrival focus points, accentuate key corners and terminate vistas. The development of the policy area will also recognise the former uses of the land, which could include the reuse of the racecourse entry gates off Cheltenham Parade in the design of open space or as an entry statement to residential areas. Non-residential land uses such as a small supermarket and specialty shops, health and community facilities and other service facilities will form part of a mixed use precinct that is integrated with a new rail transit station located in the policy area, and complements higher residential densities. This mixed use precinct will cater primarily to the needs of rail commuters and residents within the policy area. Car parking areas will be shared between facilities and be provided beneath buildings. The policy area will be extensively landscaped, with high quality street planting (with species selected to be in scale with associated development) integrated with open space areas. Smaller pocket parks and landscaped buffer areas will be located within the residential areas, with adjoining housing developed with reduced setbacks. Paved areas within public view areto be softened with the use of landscaping. Development is to contribute to a cohesive extension of the urban form, emphasising both visual and physical connectivity through road and pedestrian/cycle networks and a high quality public environment that is designed to facilitate: (a) access to a new railway station developed in the policy area or to nearby Woodville Railway Station (b) pedestrian and bicycle movements between the policy area and nearby residential neighbourhoods (c) access to public recreation areas, public transport nodes and local shopping and community facilities. Areas adjacent to the policy area include residential and non-residential activities. Development within the policy area will: (a) create an appropriate transition between established low rise residences adjacent to the Policy Area and higher level development internal to it (b) acknowledge and respond to the activity and function of existing and adjoining non residential land uses through solutions that mitigate adverse impacts without affecting the long term viability of those uses, whilst PDC - Principle Development Control 0 - Objective allowing for future changes in use (c) emphasise links and connectivity with existing local facilities such as St Clair Oval and Recreation Centre, Woodville High School, Woodville District Centre, library and civic centre services, and potential future development of adjoining sites. 01 Housing and other sensitive uses need to be sited and designed to mitigate potential noise impacts from nearby non-residential activities and from major traffic routes and the rail line. This may be achieved through the adoption of solid, freestanding acoustic barriers, vegetated mounds and the orientation of dwellings. However, freestanding acoustic barriers will not be located where they would compromise connectivity with nearby residential areas.

In preparing this report I confirm that I have reviewed the most pertinent provisions of the Charles Sturt (City) Development Plan and more particularly the subject Residential Zone and Cheltenham Policy Area 22. I have also inspected the subject land and locality and met with you and your Team Leader, Ms Zoe Garnaut at the Council offices to discuss the project prior to lodgement of the application. I provide my views and opinions on this matter below. 2.0 BACKGROUND It is apparent that with the ever growing population targets being espoused by the State Government, there is a clear and direct need to look to the periphery subutbs of Adelaide's Central Business District (CBD) for suitable accommodation, whereby housing costs can be contained and suitable public transport, open space and goods and service opportunities are available. The subject land is considered an ideal location to provide higher density affordable housing options to cater for the population targets the Government is seeking. As a 'greenfield' site, it makes it easier to construct and develop the land by planning for external impacts at such an early stage in the development whilst also being strategically located in close proximity to a train station, a range of shopping needs, extensive parks and gardens and within an easy commute to the City. As you are aware, there has also been considerable preliminary liaison undertaken with Council Planning Officers prior to lodgement of the application in order to work through all components of the project In preparing this proposal the preliminary comments raised by Council have been considered with a number of refinements to the project including working with the Developers of the St Clair Estate JV Pty Ltd, and more specifically the Design Manager, Mr Ben Bolton. If there are any further revisions that Council consider would improve the merits of the proposal we are open to considering them. . .

The allotment is irregular in shape and retains an area of approximately 2,995m2 and a frontage on four sides to public roads - Post Parade on its southeastern boundary, St Clair Avenue on its northeastern boundary and McCloud Street on the southwestern to northwestern boundary. The subject land is vacant, predominantly flat and retains no vegetation. There are no registered easements or Land Management Agreements over the subject land. The encumbrances over the subject land have been worked through with the Developer of the St Clair Estate. 3.2 Subject Locality The locality is undergoing rapid change at this point in time with St Clair still being developed. The area around the subject land will have a somewhat mixed character in that it is located directly adjacent to a new supermarket with associated car park to the west and residential development to the east and south. A train station is within a short walking distance to the south with industrial development located beyond. There will also be a plethora of park and garden areas around the subject land predominantly running along the train line and linking with larger Reserve Areas to the north. A locality plan attached demonstrates the allotment pattern of the St Clair Estate when it's completed, which highlights there is a mix of medium density development to the south east in addition to retail/commercial. 4.0 THE PROPOSAL The proposed 5 storey residential flat building incorporates 72 apartments including 68 two bedroom apartments, 4 one bedroom apartments and a total of 72 on site car parks located on the ground level. The ground level car park is enclosed (with the exception of 4 externally located visitor car parks under the main roof) and surrounded by landscaping with two vehicle access points, each addressing McCloud Street. Waste collection will be via private contractor with the bins wheeled to the refuse truck on the edge of the road. There is also communal storage area on each apartment level for owners along with two bike storage areas on the ground level. Pedestrian access to the site is proposed via common entrances on McCloud Street and Post Parade, for which the latter is adjacent to the proposals two internal lifts. Additional private front entrances to apartments are also incorporated into the southern elevation of the building allowing direct access to individual apartments. 4.1 Built Form The 5 story building is contemporary in design with five separate skillion roof forms and a mix of complementary colours and building materials. To accommodate the irregular shaped allotment, the building includes numerous steps and recesses creating variety and depth, with the primary frontage addressing the road junction of St Clair Avenue and Post Parade. More specifically, the building incorporates precast P0 Box 392 Brighton SA 5048 in 0410 147 541 [email protected] I atm 31290400176 +3O®)4i m e V::~- CP IEN GDJEEEN & Associates concrete panels for the main supporting walls externally and internally and an array of cladding materials such as timber and alucobond composite, aluminium louver and extensive glassed areas. The building has been designed with the endeavour of prioritising passive surveillance of the surrounding roadways by incorporating habitable room windows and balconies on all four elevations. Given this design intent and the relative size of the site, a light well (or void) has been incorporated in the centre of the building to allow additional internal access to natural light. The apartments are designed to achieve a minimum 5 star rating with the building to average 6 stars. Dividing apartment walls, floor and ceiling surfaces are insulated to achieve the required thermal and acoustic performance requirements as required under the Building Code Of Australia. (Min RWCTR 50) External walls are to be insulated to R2.8 to minimise heat loads and provide acoustic separation form the outside. External window and balcony areas are provided with sunscreens to minimise heat loads and reduce the buildings energy footprint A common recirculating hot water system with solar roof panels is connected to all apartments which lowers the ongoing running costs of the building services. Openable windows and sliding doors front and rear allow good flow through ventilation negating the continuous use of mechanical systems. 4.2 Apartments There is a total of 72 residential apartments proposed on the upper levels of the building, 68 of which have two bedrooms and 4 single one bedroom options. All of the apartments have been purposely designed with a frontage and balcony addressing adjoining roadways to provide passive surveillance and an active street frontage for each elevation. The apartments are proposed to provide a diverse accommodation type of residents in this inner city area that is located close to employment opportunities, education facilities and variety of goods and services. The apartments are also provided with easy access to the public bus and train transport systems. Access to the apartment floor levels is by way of two private ground floor entrances, one of which has lift access to all floors. Security intercom and camera systems will be provided for security to common areas and car park. There are also three (3) first floor apartments that retain their own ground level active street frontage for a small office "meeting the home activity definition" promoting street level accessibility from the building to Post Parade, St Clair Avenue and McCloud Street. The internal layout of the apartments allows direct access from living areas to external balconies and to natural light and ventilation for these rooms via the large glass sliding doors. The master bedroom for each apartment has also been orientated to the external wall of the building (with the exception of the four single bedroom apartments) to allow access to natural light and ventilation. In the majority of cases the master bedroom is afforded direct access to the adjacent balcony via a glass sliding door. The second bedroom, where possible, has also been orientated to the external wall, which was able to be achieved for 28 of the apartments. The second bedroom for the remainder of the apartments incorporates a window addressing the buildings internal light well (void) or individual void ie no borrowed light in any circumstances. Air conditioning will be provided to living areas and bathroom and laundry areas will be mechanical ventilated to the outside. All bedrooms and studies are provided with full width robes and additional storage cupboards to study areas. Data communications and MAW and PayTV infrastructure is provided to all apartments.

Storage units of some 4.5m3 in size are provided within of the upper floor levels. a common storage area for each apartment on each A bicycle storage area is also located on the buildings ground floor level for 42 bicycles to be securely stored. 4.4 Car parking!Access The common car parking area has been provided with 76 car parking spaces in total, 72 enclosed within the secure car park for apartment owners and 4 visitor car parks located outside the secure car park on the subject land. In addition, numerous on street parks are available adjacent to the subject site, particularly along St Clair Avenue and Post Parade, which are directly adjacent to the front entrance of the building. Vehicle access to the building is obtainable via two crossover points, each located on the western elevation of the building gaining access from McCloud Street. A traffic report has been prepared by a qualified traffic engineer in Mr Frank Siow supporting the project, which provides justification that a sufficient level of car parks has been provided to meet the requirements of the Development Plan and has been designed to meet the Australian Standards. 5.0 PLANNING ASSESSMENT The subject land is located within the Residential Zone and the Cheltenham Policy Area 22 of the Charles Sturt (City) Development Plan. 5.1 Nature of Development The proposal is considered to be a 5 storey residential flat building comprising 72 residential apartments with associated storage, car parking and landscaping. 5.2 Kind of Development The construction of a 5 storey residential flat building is a consent "on-merit" form of development in the subject Residential Zone. Pursuant to Schedule 8 of the Development Regulations 2008, I do not see that there would be any Government or Agency Referrals required as part of the assessment of this residential flat building located within the approved Precinct of the St Clair Residential Estate. In particular, within the approval for the Estate all matters referring to Site Contamination have been adequately addressed. Pursuant to Schedule 9 of the Development Regulations 2008, the proposal for a residential flat building in a Residential Zone is a Category 3 form of development as it is not exempt under the Residential Zone in the Development Plan.

Dwellings should be designed within the following setback parameters: Parameter Value Minimum setback from primary road frontage 1 metre where the allotment adjoins a public reserve and rear vehicle access is available. 2.5 metres -all other allotments Minimum setback from secondary road frontage 1.5 metres Minimum setback from rear boundary 3 metres for single storey 5 metres for two and three storeys Vanable for four or more storeys Nil where adjoining a service or access lane - Buildings having 4 storeys or more should make provision for undercroft or basement parking. 1 0 Box 392 Brighton SA 5048 m 0410 147 541 [email protected] Ibn 3129040017r _l &N GRIEEN & Associates High density residential development is envisaged within the Cheltenham Park Policy Area 22, particularly with consideration of the master planning for St Clair, a strategically important transport orientated development site consistent with State Government thinking of supporting public transport infrastructure in close proximity to the CBD. In addition, buildings greater than 4 storeys are contemplated where the site is in close proximity to public facilities, appropriate built form setbacks are adhered to and undercroft nor basement car parking is incorporated within the design. PDC 4, 5 and 7 are particularly relevant in determining the appropriate location for residential buildings greater than 4 stories in height, emphasising the importance of being closely located to public open space, public transport, local shops and public facilities. As the proposal is for a 5 storey residential flat building, these are important elements in the assessment of the appropriateness of its form. The site is located directly adjacent to a new shopping centre, in close proximity to St Clair train station to the south and to the frequent bus services available on Cheltenham Parade to the west. In addition, numerous public reserves are located within a short walking distance of the site, in particular one directly adjacent to the north east. In terms of proximity to public facilities and transport infrastructure, the subject site is ideally located to take advantage of these services and as such, a site considered appropriate to support a building height greater than 4 stories. Furthermore, given the unique attributes of the site, in particular its size and 'island' form with each elevation having a street frontage, the scale of the 5 storey building is able to be appropriately proportioned on the site without unreasonable impacts on allotments directly adjacent. The appropriateness of the buildings proportion and scale is further advanced by its general compliance with built form setbacks (with the exception of a couple of the buildings corners) and the inclusion of car parking under the building at the ground and first floor levels. While this does not strictly meet the definition of undercroft parking, it is a design element consistent with the policy intent, to be discussed further in considering the built form elements of the proposal. As such, in terms of the high density residential land use proposed, its lOcation on an integral site within the transport orientated greenfield development of St Clair, its height and form, in my view, are consistent with the land use intent for the Policy Area. It is considered the proposed Residential Flat building fundamentally meets with the provisions of the subject Cheltenham Policy Area as foilows • • • • Provides high density residential living with affordable "single bedroom" housing options within close proximity to the train station and shopping centre; The building is architecturally designed incorporating best practice sustainable initiatives; The proposed development will not restrict adjoining development insofar as there is minimal overshadowing and overlooking and access is provided in appropriate locations; & The building incorporates the appropriate location and proportions to warrant its five storey height. 5.3.2 Built form The Cheltenham Park Policy Area envisages a high density residential built form which is generally contemporary in character with interesting roof forms, building articulation, varied use of materials and built form recesses and protrusions to attend to the scale and bulk of larger buildings. Provisions of particular relevance in achieving these outcomes include: P0 Box 392 I3rghton SA 5048 rn 0410 147 541 [email protected] I +tii1l iI,n129O4OO176 - 10 ,V-07,411 EE M L 13N GREEFEN & Associates General Section Design and Appearance PDC 1: Buildings should reflect the desired character of the locality while Incorporating contemporary designs that have regard to the following: • (a) building height, mass and proportion • (b) external materials, patterns, colours and decorative elements • (C) roof form and pitch • (d) façade articulation and detailing • (e) verandas, eaves, parapets and window screens. Medium and High density development PDC 1: Buildings should: • (a) achieve a human scale at ground level through the use of elements such as canopies, verandas or building projections • (b) provide shelter over the footpath where minimal setbacks are desirable • (C) ensure walls on the boundary that are visible from public land include visually interesting treatments to break up large blank façades. The building is constructed of five stories in a contemporary design with five separate skillion roof forms and a mix of complementary colours and building materials. Due to the irregular shaped allotment, the building footprint includes numerous steps and recesses which aid in creating variety, depth and shading when the building is viewed from varying vantage points. In addition, the design incorporates a number of recessed and architectural elements in both horizontal and vertical proportions to provide interest and styling. Horizontal banding has been used in conjunction with an extensive number of balconies and other protruding vertical sections to break up the expanse of walling on all elevations, an effective design technique to address the scale and bulk of the building in conjunction with the low pitched and a varied 'feature' skillion roof line. An additional design feature of the building is the extensive use of Aluminium louver at ground level which creates a contrast to the visually dominant counter levered balconies protruding out from the upper levels of the building. The materials used in the upper levels allow further detailing such as horizontal and vertical grooves in the wall panelling, the vertical elements of the timber used in segmenting the glass balustrading and the use of the darker coloured Alucobond composite which frames sections of the building to create the impression of five buildings within one with each skillion roof. As such, in my view, the building is an excellent example of contemporary design which is in keeping with the progressive built form aspirations of the Policy Area. 5.3.4 Private open space I Storage The Development Plan stipulates 11 square metres as the minimum size for upper level apartment private open space. It also requires the space to be lo'cated directly adjacent to a living area. To this end, each apartment has been designed with a balcony representative of the minimum size and dimensions, located directly adjacent to a living space, accessed via glass sliding doors. Furthermore, the master bedroom for 36 of the apartments also has direct access to the balcony via a glass sliding door. In my view, the balconies accommodating private open space are appropriate and functional, in keeping with Development Plan requirements. In addition to the private open space associated with each individual apartment, a large internal common area is provided on the first floor level with the intent of providing a social focus and meeting place for the building facilitating low level recreational activities. The area is serviced with ample natural light from the large void within the centre of the building and will incorporate attractive and functional seating areas, planter boxes and landscaping. The Development Plan also stipulates that high rise residential development should incorporate domestic storage for each dwelling in accordance with the following provision: P0 Box 392 Brighton SA 5048 in 0410 147 541 [email protected] abn 31290400176 11 cmCP N GREEIEN & Associates PDC 12: DwellIngs should provide a covered storage area of not less than 8 cubIc metres In one or more of the following areas: • (a) in the dwelling (but not including a habitable room) • (b) in a garage, carport or outbuilding • (c) within an on-site communal facility. A storage unit of some 4.5 cubic metres in size has been provided in common storage areas for each apartment which is located on each corresponding floor allowing convenient access without the need to negotiate stairs or the lift. While the stOrage units are not consistent with the 8 cubic metres stipulated above, it is important to note that each apartment incorporates a built in robe to each bedroom, linen cupboard and laundry storage space, in addition to there being bike storage facilities on the ground level. While the proposal's domestic storage is not strictly in accordance with the quantifiable requirements of PDC 12, it is my view that functionally the combined options of storage lockers, storage within the dwellings and bike storage is consistent with the intent of the provision and appropriate to service residents accommodated in high density living. 5.3.5 Overlooking/overshadowing Given the nature of the subject site, which could effectively be seen as an 'island' with road frontages on each boundary, the impact of overlooking is limited to that across a road reserve generally incorporating views of an adjacent public reserve and shopping centre. In my view, overlooking beyond the road reserve will not represent unreasonable impacts, particularly given the Development Plan support for passive surveillance of public roads. Overlooking between balconies within the building is considered to be appropriately addressed given they are separated by fixed screens (walls) between each. A set of shadow diagrams has not been prepared at this point in time but those involved with the project including the developers of the Estate, the architect and myself do not consider there will be unreasonable overshadowing given the shadows cast by the development, albeit 5 storeys high, will predominantly be over roads and car parks and front yards. 5.3.6 Car parkingivehicle access Table ChSt/2 of the Charles Sturt Development Plan identifies the following relevant car parking rates: - I space per residential apartment (2 bedroom apartment 75 metres square to 130 metres square size) - 0.75 space per residential apartment (1 bedroom apartment <75 metreS square In size) - Additional parting for vlsltovs at 0.25 spaces per dwelling. The proposal is consistent with the car parking requirements for the two bedroom apartments in that each is supplied with one parking space, and is in excess for the one bedroom apartments in that 4 spaces are supplied for the 4 apartments where the provision suggests a total of 3. In terms of visitor spaces, 4 on site spaces have been supplied as part of the proposal where the Development Plan calls for 18 spaces, a shortfall of 14. A traffic report has been prepared by a qualified traffic engineer Mr Frank Slow which considers the appropriateness of the level of car parking associated with the development. The report identifies the sites proximity to effective public transport, cycling and footpaths which allows the master planning of St Clair to P0 Box 392 Brighton SA 5048 in 0410 147 541 [email protected] n' aIn 31290400176 I 12 C-_) 3_ CP ~ BEN GREEN & Associates encourage non-car modes of transport, along with direct access to on street parking from the site, particularly on Post Parade and St Clair Avenue. It also reviews additional traffic generating guides produced to forecast car parking requirements. With these considerations, Mr Frank Siow is of the opinion that the number of car parks incorporated with the proposal is consistent with the intent of the Development Plan requirements. Furthermore, Mr Frank Slow also considered in his report vehicle movements, parking space and aisle way dimensions, traffic generation, safety and convenience. To each of these points, it has been summarised that on site vehicle movements and the two vehicle access points allow safe and convenient access consistent with relevant standards. 6.0 CONCLUSION For all of the above reasons, I conclude: • the proposal provides for an orderly and economic form of high density residential development incorporating an alternative form of higher density apartment living promoting active street frontages appropriate for the residents of the subject locality; • the proposed development is designed with regard to adjoining development in terms of separation and appropriate landscape buffering and is suitably catered for by infrastructure (through development of the St Clair) division, car parking and access arrangements; • the merit in this application, beyond the care and consideration undertaken to design and siting of the development with appropriate setbacks, car parking in accordance with the recommendations of a qualified traffic engineer is the fact the proposed building is incorporating affordable housing close to public transport, goods and services and public open space. • the proposal does not threaten the attainment of the provisions of the subject Residential Zone, the Cheltenham Policy Area 22 or the Charles Sturt (City) Development Plan provisions more generally and does not prejudice the amenity of the locality. It is therefore submitted that the proposed residential flat development exhibits significant merit to warrant planning consent subject to notification.

The proposal is shown in Drawing 901-255-DAOI Rev F by Studio Nine Architects. The proposal comprises of 68 two bedroom apartments; 4 one bedroom apartments; and 76 on-site parking spaces. The subject site is located in the suburb of St Clair, which is a new master planned community with mixed uses, medium and high residential land uses, and a new train station. 1.0 SUBJECT SITE The subject site is located within the Cheltenham Park Policy Area 22 Residential Zone of the City of Charles Sturt and is in a policy area where mixed use and high density living is envisaged. The subject site is an irregular parcel of land that is bounded by 3 local streets. Opposite the subject site on the McCloud Street frontage is a new shopping centre with extensive car parking. The other boundaries of the subject site have frontages to Post Parade. The local streets include extensive on-street parking bays. The subject site is located a very short distance to the new St Clair train station to the south. It is also located a short distance to bus routes on Cheltenham Parade. When the land division roads are completed to Torrens Road, residents would also have reasonably convenient access to the bus routes on Torrens Road. Traffic Engineering Traffic & Parking Studies Road Safety Audits Bicycle Planning 15 V Page 2 The policy area statement describes encouraging the use of public transport, cycling and walking for the master planned community, through design of the road network and creation of a network of linked paths. Therefore unlike land divisions of the past, the development of St Clair allows planners to incorporate many design features into road and land use planning that would encourage non-car modes of transport. 2.0 PARKING ASSESSMENT The proposed parking provision on-site would be 76 spaces. The car park would be on the ground floor with 4 spaces for visitor car parking and the remaining 72 spaces for residents. Resident car parks would be secured via roller doors. In assessing the parking adequacy issue, I am of the opinion that there are 3 key factors for the subject site that should be given consideration: 1. Where a development site is close to major public transport services, it is not uncommon to "discount" the parking requirement in recognition of these factors. Additionally, the provision of bicycle parking on-site would also encourage the use of non-car modes of transport for residents and visitors. 2. It is common to have regard to on-street parking availability when assessing the adequacy of parking for a development, in particular on-street parking that is immediately abutting the frontages of the subject Site. There are many parking bays constructed in Post Parade and adjoining streets that could safely and conveniently be utilised by visitors to the development. Immediately abutting the two frontages of the subject site, I estimate that there are up to 10 on-street parking bays present. 3. Unlike other land divisions in the past, the subject site is located within a greenfield development, whereby integrated land use planning has been adopted in the design of the land division. The proximity of high density residential land uses to commercial land uses, such as shopping centre, and provision of a network of linked paths means that non-car modes of travel would be encouraged for many of the local trips. Council's Development Plan Table ChSt/2 identifies the following parking rates for residential land uses: • I space per residential apartment (2 bedroom apartment 75m2 to 130m2 size). • 0.75 space per residential apartment (1 bedroom apartment <75m2 size). • Additional parking jhr visitors at 0.25 spaces per dwelling. The proposed mix of residential apartments would be: 68 two-bedroom apartments (75m2 to I 30m2 size) and 4 one-bedroom apartments (<75m2 size). Based on the Development Plan, I would estimate that the proposed development would require 71 resident spaces and 18 visitor spaces, ie total of 89 spaces. Proposed McCloud St Apartments, St Clair May 2015 Frank Slow & Associates 16 I Page 3 Having regard to the considerations of (I) to (3) above, I estimate that the parking required should be in the region of 80 spaces, given the proximity of the subject site to bus services and a new train station and the provision of bicycle parking. The potential parking shortfall would therefore be 4 spaces (ie 80 minus 76). Having regard to the availability of on-street parking bays, which in my opinion, would be appropriate for visitor parking, I am satisfied that adequate parking would be provided for the proposed development. The NSW parking standard, Guide to Traffic Generating Developments, is a document frequently used by traffic engineers to forecast traffic and parking demands. The parking rates in this standard have been used for many medium and high density residential developments throughout Adelaide for many years. Metropolitan sub-regional centres • 0.6 spaces per I bedroom unit • 0,9 spaces per 2 bedroom unit • Plus I space per 5 units ('visitor parking) Based on the NSW parking standard, the proposed development would require 64 resident spaces and 14 visitor spaces, ie total of 78 spaces. Taking into consideration the key factors (1) to (3), 1 would estimate that the parking required for the development would be approximately 70 spaces. The proposed parking provision of 76 spaces would exceed this requirement. In summary, having regard to the above assessment and the availability of On-street parking, I am satisfied that adequate parking would be provided for the development. 3.0 PARKING LAYOUT AS/NZS 2890.1 -2004 identifies off-street car parking for residential uses as a user class 1A facility. The minimum car park dimensions for user class 1A are: 2.4m by 5.4m spaces and 5.8m aisleways. The dimensions for the proposed car park are 2.4m by 5.4m for general spaces and 2.4m by 5.Om for small car spaces. The proposed car park dimensions would comply with these requirements. The proposed aisleway widths would be 6.Om to 6.2m, which would exceed the requirement of the parking standard of 5.8m. Where spaces are adjacent to walls, an additional 0.3m space width clearance would be provided, as per the parking standard. Two disabled parking space would be provided in accordance with AS/NZS 2890.6-2009. A minimum car park head height of 2.2m would be provided, as per ASINZS 2890.1-2004. Extensive bicycle parking is also proposed within the car park, adjacent to Space 18 and Space 35. For security purposes, the Applicant proposes that the car park would be closed off to the general public. However, I understand that based on previous discussions, Council have requested that some visitors spaces be designated on-site, outside of the secured part of the car park, ie clear of the car park security door. This is to enable the on-site visitor spaces to be readily accessible at all Proposed McCloud St Apartments, St CIair May 2015 -- Frank Siow & Associates 17 Page 4 times. This requirement has been achieved at the northern access point of the development, with 4 spaces designated for visitors. While one end space in the visitor portion of the car park does not have the im aisleway extension, as per the parking standard, access to these end spaces would still be reasonably convenient. The turn path below shows the access to the end space. '-I REFUSE 0000 ii L -C3 = ErTb ISEZURUM1 - (A S 26 6 SPACES RP RKING 28O isoo 2400 YT' IN • Figure. End space manoeuvrabiiiiy Based on the above assessment, 1 am satisfied that the proposed car park has been designed to allow convenient access for all users. Two access points are proposed to service the car park of the development. The southern access point would be located slightly offset from the public road that leads to the shopping centre car park. While the location of the proposed southern access would not fuily comply with the requirement of the parking standard, I am satisfied that the proposed location would be acceptable, given that there is very little likelihood of drivers attempting to drive across between the shopping centre and the subject site. I also note from my site inspection that most of the exit traffic from the shopping centre car park turn left towards the Post Parade roundabout direction, which is away from the southern access point. Security doors are proposed for both the access points. At the northern access point, access to the 4 visitor parking spaces would be unimpeded, given that the roller door for the secured resident spaces would be set quite far back from the road. At the southern access point, where the resident-only access is provided, the security door would be set back one car length from the kerb, so that the entering resident vehicle can momentarily store off the carriageway, without blocking through traffic on the street while the security door is opening. Proposed McCloud St Apartments, St Clair May 2015 Frank Siow & Associates V Page 5 The above access arrangement would assist in mininiising the impact of the proposed development on McCloud Street traffic. Adequate sight lines to pedestrians on the footpath, in accordance with AS/NZS 2890.1-2004, would be provided for both access points. I also consider that vehicular sight lines for the exiting driver to view on-coming traffic for the northern and southern access points would be satisfactory. More particularly, for exiting drivers of the southern access point looking to the left, the proposed building would be sufficiently setback to provide adequate sight distance to the intersection of Post Parade. In summary, I am satisfied that adequate pedestrian and vehicular sight distances would be provided for both access points of the development. 4.0 TRAFFIC IMPACT The proposed development would be a relatively low traffic generator, given that it is a residential land use. I would estimate that the proposed development would generate approximately 40 to 50 vehicles per hour during the peak hour. Given the integrated planning approach for the overall St Clair development, including the proximity to public transport services and the cycling and walking networks that have been incorporated into the land division, the estimated peak hour trips generated would be likely to be much lower than estimated above. Given the low traffic generating nature of the proposed development, I am therefore of the opinion that it would not create unacceptable traffic impacts on the adjacent road network. 5.0 SUMMARY Having regard to the integrated planning approach of the St Clair land division and development, the proximity of public transport services (buses and trains), the encouragement of non-car modes of transport (cycling and walking) and the availability of on-street parking on the site frontages, I am of the opinion that adequate parking would be provided for the proposed development. The proposed development would provide 76 on-site parking spaces. Convenient parking would also be available from the existing on-street parking bays in the abutting streets. The proposed parking layout would have parking space and aisleway dimensions that would comply with or exceed the requirements of the parking standard. The parking layout has also been designed to allow convenient and safe access for users. All vehicle movements to and from the proposed car park would be able to occur in a forward direction. The traffic generated would have minimal impact on the adjacent roads. Proposed McCtoud St Apartments, St Clair May 2015 Frank Siow& Associates 19 / Page 6 On the basis of the above assessment, I am of the opinion that the proposal would be supportable from a traffic and parking perspective. Yours sincerely, anI Sww FRANK SlOW MIEAust MAITPM MIPWEA Proposed McCloud St Apartments, St Clair May 2015 Frank Siow & Associates 411 17 July 2015 Mr Ben Green Ben Green & Associates P0 Box 392 BRIGHTON SA 5048 Dear Mr Green, PROPOSED McCLOUD ST APARTMENTS, ST CLAIR TRAFFIC AND PARKING ASSESSMENT As requested, we have undertaken a traffic and parking assessment for the above development. The proposal is shown in Drawing 901-255-DAO1 Rev C by Studio Nine Architects. The proposal comprises of • 68 two bedroom apartments; • 4 one bedroom apartments; and • 80 on-site parking spaces. The subject site is located in the suburb of St Clair, which is a new master planned community with mixed uses, medium and high residential land uses, and a new train station. The original proposal plans were amended following discussions with Council staff. Due to the access requirements of the Coles shopping centre opposite the subject site, the originally-proposed south entrance to the resident car park of the development had to be amended to suit this future Coles access requirement, as directed by Council staff. As a consequence of the Coles access requirement, the proposed southern entrance of the resident car park has now been shifted further to the north of Stewards Lane. Council staff also raised the issue of visitor parking for the development. We understand from Council that other developments, such as the "Iron Fish" development opposite the subject site (similar in scale to the subject development), was previously approved with no provision for visitor parking on-site on the basis of shared parking with other land uses in the area. Notwithstanding this, Council staff have requested that the minimum parking shortfall acceptable would be 8 visitor spaces. The revised plan has therefore been amended to accommodate this Council requirement, ie the provision Of 8 visitor spaces, as required by Council. 21 1.0 SUBJECT SITE The subject site is located within the Cheltenham Park Policy Area 22 Residential Zone of the City of Charles Sturt and is in a policy area where mixed use and high density living is envisaged. The subject site is an irregular parcel of land that is bounded by 3 local streets. Opposite the subject site on the McCloud Street frontage is a new shopping centre with extensive car parking.

Where a development site is close to major public transport services, it is not uncommon to "discount" the parking requirement in recognition of these factors. Additionally, the provision of bicycle parking on-site would alsO encourage the use of non-car modes of transport for residents and visitors. 2.

There are many parking bays constructed in Post Parade and adjoining streets that could safely and conveniently be utilised by visitors to the development.

Unlike other land divisions in the past, the subject site is located within a greenfield development, whereby integrated land use planning has been adopted in the design of the land division. The proximity of high density residential land uses to commercial land uses, such as shopping centre, and provision of a network of linked paths means that non-car modes of travel would be encouraged for many of the local trips. 22 Council's Development Plan Table ChSt/2 identifies the following parking rates for residential land uses: • 1 space per residential apartment (2 bedroom apartment 75n2 to 130m2 size). • 0.75 space per residential apartment ('1 bedroom apartment <75m2 size). • Additional parking for visitors at 0.25 spaces per dwelling. Overall Parking Assessment The proposed mix of residential apartments would be: 68 two-bedroom apartments (75m2 to 130m2 size) and 4 one-bedroom apartments (<75m2 size). Based on the Development Plan, we would estimate that the proposed development would require 71 resident spaces and 18 visitor spaces, ie total of 89 spaces. Having regard to the considerations of (1) to (3) above, we estimate that the parking required should be in the region of 80 spaces. Based on this assessment, in numerical terms, the parking provision on-site (80 spaces) would meet the Development Plan requirements, ie there would be no shortfall arising from the proposed development. We are therefore satisfied that adequate parking would be provided for the proposed development. The NSW parking standard, Guide to Traffic Generating Developments, is a document frequently used by traffic engineers to forecast traffic and parking demands. The parking rates in this standard have been used for many medium and high density residential developments throughout Adelaide for many years. Metropolitan sub-regional centres • 0.6 spaces per 1 bedroom unit • 0.9 spaces per 2 bedroom unit • Plus I space per 5 units (visitor parking) Based on the NSW parking standard, the proposed development would require 64 resident spaces and 14 visitor spaces, ie total of 78 spaces. Taking into consideration the key factors (1) to (3), we would estimate that the parking required for the development would be approximately 70 spaces. The proposed parking provision of 80 spaces would exceed this requirement. Visitor Parking Assessment It is proposed that 1 parking space be allocated to each apartment, therefore 72 parking spaces would be resident parking spaces. The remaining 8 parking spaces would be designated for visitors. Council staff have advised that the provision of 8 visitor parking spaces on-site would be acceptable, having regard to the impact of the Coles access issue on the development. The number of on-site visitor parking spaces provided would therefore meet the requirement specified by Council staff. An alternative way to calculate the visitor parking requirement would be to refer to the NSW standard. Based on this standard, the estimated visitor parking requirement would be 14 spaces. 23 After taking into account discounting of the parking requirement, for the reasons previously discussed, the visitor parking demand would be likely to be around say 10-12 spaces. As 8 visitor parking spaces would be provided on-site, the visitor parking shortfall would therefore be very minor (ie 2 to 4 spaces). We consider such a parking shortfall to be acceptable, having regard to on-street parking availability in the vicinity of the subject site. In summary, having regard to the above assessment, we are satisfied that adequate parking would be provided for the development. 3.0 PARKING LAYOUT AS/NZS 2890.1-2004 identifies off-street car parking for residential uses as a user class 1A facility. The minimum car park dimensions for user class 1A are: 2.4m by 5.4m spaces and 5.8m aisleways. The dimensions for the proposed car park are 2.4m by 5.4m for general spaces and 2.3m by 5.Om for small car spaces. The proposed car park dimensions would comply with these requirements. The proposed aisleway widths would be 6.Om to 6.2m, which would exceed the requirement of the parking standard of 5.8m. Where spaces are adjacent to walls, an additional 0.3m space width clearance for door opening would be provided, as per the parking standard. A minimum car park head height of 2.2m would be provided, as per AS/NZS 2890.1-2004. One disabled parking space in the resident car park would be provided in accordance with AS/NZS 2890.6-2009. Bicycle parking is also proposed within the car park. The resident car park would be a secured car park. The security gate would be activated by remote control. The gate would be located one car length from the edge of kerb, which would enable the entering vehicle to store off the McCloud Street carriageway for a short duration while the gate is being opened. As per Council's request, the visitor car park would be accessible to visitors at all times. This small car park would also include 4 spaces that would be allocated to residents. These 4 resident spaces would be secured from the public by roller doors (similar to typical garages). While one end space in the visitor portion of the car park (Visitor space 8) does not have the 1 m aisleway extension, as per the parking standard, access to the end space would still be reasonably convenient, given the widened aisleway in front of this space (7.05m). The turn path below shows the access to this end space. 24 Lull! _ - Figure: End space inanoeuvrability A widened aisleway at the end of the visitor car park is proposed to provide a turnaround area, in lieu of losing one parking space as a turnaround. Given Council's requirement to maintain a minimum of 8 visitor spaces on-site and having regard to the site constraints, it is considered that a widened aisleway would provide a reasonable alternative to losing one parking space. The widened aisleway would enable a car to make an additional turn (instead of 3-point turn) to drive out in a forward direction, should the visitor car park be full (see Figure below). ohm, ii I i Figure. Turnaround movement at the visitor car park Based on the above assessment, we are satisfied that the proposed car park has been designed to provide reasonably convenient access for all users. 25 The access point for the resident car park would be located sufficiently far away from the opposite laneway in accordance with AS/NZS 2890.1-2004. Adequate pedestrian and traffic sight distances would be provided for this access point, as per AS/NZS 2890.1-2004. Similarly, the visitor car park access point would provide adequate pedestrian and traffic sight distances as per AS/NZS 2890.1-2004. 4.0 TRAFFIC IMPACT Theproposed development would be a relatively low traffic generator, given that it is a residential land use. We would estimate that the proposed development would generate approximately 40 to 50 vehicles per hour (two-way) during the peak hour. Given the integrated planning approach for the overall St Clair development, including the proximity to public transport services and the cycling and walking networks that have been incorporated into the land division, the estimated peak hour trips generated would be likely to be much lower than estimated above. Given the low traffic generating nature of the proposed development, we are therefore of the opinion that it would not create unacceptable traffic impacts on the adjacent road network. 5.0 SUMMARY Having regard to the integrated planning approach of the St Clair land division and development, the proximity of public transport services (buses and trains), the encouragement of non-car modes of transport (cycling and walking) and the availability of on-street parking on the site frontages, we are of the opinion that adequate parking would be provided for the proposed development. The proposed development would provide 80 on-site parking spaces. Convenient parking would also be available from the existing on-street parking bays in the abutting streets. The proposed parking layout would have parking space and aisleway dimensions that would comply with or exceed the requirements of the parking standard. The parking layout has also been designed to allow convenient and safe access for users. All vehicle movements to and from the proposed car park would'be able to occur in a forward direction. The traffic generated would have minimal impact on the adjacent roads. On the basis of the above assessment, we are of the opinion that the proposal would be supportable from a traffic and parking perspective.

Increased traffic congestion at an already-congested location will compound the matter Parking problems - Occupier Parking / Visitor Parking . Noise Congestion • Size of Development - Height and Size of the building. Possibly consider - 3 Storey as opposed to 5 stories which will reduce issues with additional parking and look to include gardens in line with St Clair Vision being such a large area at the entrance area of the Development on Post Parade. In addition, as mentioned, the land is so large that the developer could consider I development of a 5 storey on one half of the block closest towards the shopping precinct and the land towards the roundabout could be used for increased parking and include garden area for the residence which will enhance the took of the Central Park area as opposed to all congested high rise buildings in a close proximity of each other. Within the Soul Apartments complex there is a significant amount of vacant/recreational space that has been created, also known as the common area which will be accessed by local residents only. I believe this to be a waste of space limited to those living within the complex. With so much reserves including a reserve directly across the road I don't see the need to add to the wasted space and create such sizeable building which impacts all surrounding residence and commercial business. The increase in population in this small area will need to be managed from a traffic, parking and noise perspective. Especially once St Clair is fully established the problem will only be enhanced based on the points above. This will also allow the impressive design of the Avenue Apartments to be still under display by all travelling through St Clair - being a true icoriic upmarket Design in the heart of the St Clair precinct. Recent Additions to Initial Explanation of Concern . Recent discussions with surrounding residents have voiced their dismay with yet another inclusion of another high rise apartment complex being built within such close proximity of other completed high rise apartment projects which only adds to the congestion and detracts those wanting to live in St Clair siting that "St Clair is looking more like another Mawson Lakes. Is it the council's objective of building a Lego land of congested high rise apartments etc? I had always visioned St Clair to be a development that is a Sanctuary in the Making where those who decide to live here will be able to enjoy the idyllic, waterway and wildlife sanctuary. It is cited on the St Clair website as follows: A sanctuary of landscaped gardens... a walking and cycling trail sanctuary.... A playing field.... or a family picnic sanctuary. St Clair is a living, breathing sanctuary in the making. From 22 hectares of lagoons and evergreen parklands, to a village square with shops and cafes, your stunning home nestled in leafy tree lined streets will create a sanctuary amidst life's hustle and bustle. The elegance and comfort of low-maintenance townhouses, courtyard homes and chic apartments. You'll love the heritage of the area, the shade of leafy streets and the sparkling reflections in the myriad of waterways that meander past landscaped gardens and expanses of green open space. It's a unique opportunity to live in a sanctuary in the making... at a vibrant, modern, parkland address in the heart of Adelaide's West. A Sanctuary in the Making is the vision of St Clair • It is evident that the Soul Apartment development is about maximising as much profit for the developer without considering its surrounding neighbours being both residents and businesses. • As mentioned previously the building maximises the perimeter of the lands boundaries. Within the Soul Apartments complex there is a significant amount of vacant/recreational space that has been created, also known as the common area which will be accessed by local residents only. I believe this to be a waste of space limited to those living within the complex. With so much reserves including a reserve directly across the road I don't see the need to add to the wasted space and create such sizeable building which impacts surrounding residence. No consideration has been taken of the impacts of surrounding residents. e 7 . It was always our thought that this land development would be used for low rise residential and commercial premises which would enhance the vibrancy of this corner of St Clair. S It is important that the council consider diversification. Within the specific area of concern, the high concentration of 3 - 4 storey apartments will see the majority of residents being short term renters thus also being a cause of concern. By saturating the area with this building type only increases the risk of high turnover and potentially high vacancy rates due to an increased supply thus impacting the overall growth of the area. Only need to look at what has occurred in Port Adelaide and Mawson Lakes areas to see the I failed increase in growth due to increased supply of high rise residential buildings. S I believe the council in conjunction with the developer carefully reconsider the building I proposal by Build Tec Group and the impacts this would have on current surrounding residents of St Clair and future residents wanting to make the move to St Clair for the benefits of wanting to make a home for their family. Keep true to the vision that St Clair is a "Sanctuary in the Making" It is truly a unique suburb that differentiates itself from many others. Do not turn St Clair into another high rise building community. We have so many already and with the added conversion of West Lakes AAMI into another residential development in the West much I thought needs to go into what the council's direction of how they see St Clair looking both now and in the future.

Our primary form of solar access is via our balcony directly adjoining this development. With the narrow road way (18meters) between our apartment and this development the reduction in winter sunlight will be significant. Overshadowing 9 The design and location of buildings should enable direct winter sunlight into adjacent dwellings and private open space and minimise overshadowing of: (a) windows of main internal living areas (b) ground level private open space (c) upper-level private balconies that provide the primary open space area for dwelling (d) solar collectors (such as solar hot water systems and photovoltaic cells) Another concern is the car parking entrance to this development. The developer has placed this entrance directly opposite and below the Balconies of 301 St Clair Avenue apartment's. McCloud St is a thin street used by residents to access the shopping centre. Vehicles entering and exiting this development will impact the traffic flow along this street. With the additional vehicles waiting at this entrance and vehicles queuing behind them, the balconies of 301 St Clair will be subjected to increased amounts of exhaust and noise pollution. Multi-storey buildings should: (a) minimise detrimental micro-climatic and solar access impacts on adjacent land or buildings, including effects of patterns of wind, temperature, daylight, sunlight, glare and shadow (b) incorporate roof designs that enable the provision of rain water tanks (where they are not provided elsewhere), photovoltaic cells and other features that enhance sustainability. 10 Green roofs (which can be a substitute for private or communal open space provided they can be accessed by occupants of the building) are encouraged on all new residential, commercial or mixed use buildings. 11 Development of 5 or more storeys, or 21 metros or more in building height (excluding the rooftop location of mechanical plant and equipment), should be designed to minimise the risk of wind tunnelling effects on adjacent streets by adopting one or more of the following: (a) a podium at the base of a tall tower and aligned with the street to deflect wind away from the street (b) substantial verandas around a building to deflect downward travelling wind flows over pedestrian areas (c) the placement of buildings and use of setbacks to deflect the wind at ground level. [ii Our property currently has views and open access to the green nature strip at St Clair developed by the City of Charles Sturt. The approval of this development in its current form will totally remove the view from our property. The height and size of this development has shown a total lack of empathy for the existing residents of 301 St Clair Avenue. The development application has not addressed any of the impacts implications on 301 St Clair Avenue or any of the other approved adjoining properties Unfortunately the developer is only concerned with the island nature of their development and not the impact on surrounding structures. *6. These issues would be overcome by The impact on our adjoining property can only be resolved by significant changes in the fundamental design of the property. Allowing a 5 story development on this site after you have approved the design and development of 301 St Clair Avenue is in my opinion wrong. A lower height (2 stores )less dense development would be the more appropriate development for the site. This would reduce all the issues I have referenced.

Signed* Date * : Page2of2 23 Development No 252/1238/15 I refer to the development proposed for Lot 6004 McCloud Street, St Clair. I wish to lodge an objection against this proposal in relation to parking and traffic issues which I do not believe have been adequately addressed against the council's development plan requirements. Whilst the number of on-site parks for residents have been provided for in line with the requirements of the council development plan, visitor parking has not. I note the council development plan requires the provision of 18 visitor parks. The application for development dated 19 May 2015 only proposes 4 visitor spaces, a shortfall of 14 spaces, although it appears there may have been some adjustment proposed with site plans now showing 8 visitor spaces, still a shortfall of some 10 spaces. I note a report from traffic engineers was completed on 17 July 2015. In this report there is representation that the shortfall of 10 visitor spaces is justified. Several points used in justification relating to proximately to public transport may lead to a reduced vehicle demand of residents. But this would seem to have already been taken into account in the council development plan which already reduces parking requirements for housing near train stations, district centres. The justification for the shortfall in visitor parking is said to be due to nearby off street parking. It is noted the traffic report was prepared in July 2015. Since this time there has been a significant increase in the number of residents having moved into this area following completion of several other developments. There are also a number of other multi story developments underway. It is understood that visitor parking dispensation had been given for at least one other development already, meaning that the actual demand for off-street parking has grown in real terms since completion of the traffic report. The adequacy of which may no longer be appropriate. The report also makes reference to a NSW traffic standard and makes claims this should guide should be used as an alternative to calculate visitor parking requirements of 14 spaces. Such a claim dismisses the validity of the council's own development plan requirements and therefore should not be considered. I thank you for considering these matters.

I have been requested by the applicant to review the representations and provide a response to Council as appropriate. In providing this response, I can confirm that I have reviewed the proposed plans and accompanying documentation along with the most pertinent provisions of the City of Charles Sturt Development Plan. I have also inspected the subject land and its locality. I advise of my opinions and findings as follows. 2.0 CONSIDERATION OF THE REPRESENTATIONS I have considered the ten representations received by Council, which each raise some queries and concerns with the proposal. I note that a couple of the representors desire to make a verbal presentation to the Panel. An overview of the representations is provided below (1)Belinda Grant, 401/301 St Clair Avenue, St Clair (2)AP & E Trust, 21 Historic Drive, Highbury (adjoining land owner) (3)Andrew McMahon & Rebecca Brown, 210/301 St Clair Avenue, St Clair (4) Wing Lam Chan, 2/14 Jacob Street, Marion (adjoining land owner) (5) Bateman, 404/301 St Clair Avenue, St Clair (6) Kevin Kirby Wilson, 626/33 Warwick Street, Walkerville (adjoining land owner) (7) Naomi Schwartz, 5 Burford Road, Henley Beach (owner: 105/301 St Clair Avenue, St Clair) PQ I J92 trkhUu SA 504 n 0$ I 0 147 541 • kcnntt 1iF]i rn 1itI BEN GREEN & Associates (8)Brett Simes, 412/ St Clair Avenue, St Clair (9)Martin and Melissa Couzner, 408/301 St ClairAveune, St Clair (10) Sebastian Baluyot, 406/301 St Clair Avenue, St Clair The concerns with the project raised are summarised below • Too close to the adjoining "Avenue' apartment building • Overshadowing • Blocking views from adjacent apartments • Creates a glut in apartment rentals • A reduction in property values • Increased traffic congestion, noise and demand for on street car parking • The impact of exhaust fumes due to the car park entrance location • The height and size of the building • The building will detract from the attractiveness of the 'iconic' Avenue Apartment building • Overlooking of the adjacent apartment building The concerns of the representors would be overcome by: • Reducing the apartment to 2 or 3 storeys • Relocation of the building construction site • Incorporate the 5 storey element only on the land towards the shopping precinct • increasing the built form setback from the 'Avenue' apartments • Provision of sufficient visitor parking in accordance with Development Plan requirements A response to the issues raised within the representation is provided below. 2.1 Building height, size, setbacks and the visual impact on the 'Avenue Apartments' High density residential development is envisaged within the Cheltenham Park Policy Area 22, particularly with consideration of the master planning for St Clair, a strategically important transport orientated development site consistent with State Government thinking of supporting public transport infrastructure in close proximity to the CBD. In addition, buildings greater than 4 storeys are contemplated where the site is in close proximity to public facilities, appropriate built form setbacks are adhered to and undercroft car parking is incorporated within the design The site is located directly adjacent to a new shopping centre, in close proximity to St Clair train station to the south and to the frequent bus services available on Cheltenham Parade to the west. In addition, numerous public reserves are located within a short walking distance of the site, in particular one directly adjacent to the north east. In terms of proximity to public facilities and transport infrastructure, the subject site is ideally located to take advantage of these services and as such, is generally supported by Policy Area provisions as an appropriate site for a 5 storey residential building. Furthermore, given the unique attributes of the site, in particular its size and 'island' form with each elevation having a street frontage, the scale of the 5 storey building is able to be appropriately proportioned on the site without unreasonable impacts on allotments directly PC) Bo 392 flrigttiun S# ?LI4E m 0410 147 541 I An bIWH(ti$b I I MEN so M adjacent. In particular, the separation distance from the 'Avenue Apartments' is considered to be ample to allow each building its own identifiable characteristics while providing a sympathetic scale contrast between the buildings. The appropriateness of the building's proportion and scale is further advanced by its general compliance with built form setbacks (with the exception of minor intrusions by the corners of the building) and the inclusion of car parking under the building at the ground floor level. In my view, the building height, scale, design and siting are in accordance with the built form intent of the Policy Area for a site such as this, and also sympathetic in scale and proportion with the adjacent 'Avenue Apartments', a residential building of substantial size in its own right. 2.2 Overshadowing I Overlooking Given the nature of the subject site, which could effectively be seen as an 'island' with road frontages on each boundary, the impact of overlooking and overshadowing is limited to that across a road reserve, with the greatest potential for overshadowing only impacting on a shopping centre car park located to the south east. Concerns have been raised in relation to the potential overlooking from the apartments into the existing adjacent 'Avenue Apartments'. Importantly, the Avenue Apartments are located across a public road reserve from this proposal, resulting in a substantial separation distance between the buildings. While it is acknowledged that there will be some opportunity for distant views to be obtained between the apartments, this would be the outcome for any form of apartment living on this site given the Policy Area provisions encouraging dwellings that address the street, be it 5 storey or 2 storey. Furthermore, given the Policy Area offers strong support for high density residential development in such a location, which is to incorporate an active street frontage and the ability for passive surveillance of public roads, the resulting incidental overlooking across a road reserve is considered reasonable within the context of the 'urban' locality. In considering overshadowing, a set of shadow diagrams have been provided and confirm that the shadows cast by the development, albeit 5 storeys high, will predominantly be over roads and car parks. While the concerns of the representers residing in the 'Avenue Apartments' are acknowledged, given the considerable separation distance between the two buildings and the relative height of the Avenue apartment building, the overshadowing impacts of the proposal are not considered to be unreasonable. There also needs to be a balance struck between the shadows cast by this development in this development in the morning on the residential property to the west in lieu of the shadows cast by the residential development to the west on the proposal in the afternoon. 2.3 Blocking of views The 5 storey residential proposal is anticipated to have some impact on the existing distant views currently obtained by those residing at the 'Avenue Apartments' given the height of the building. Importantly, the buildings height is supported by the Policy Area and is one which would have been reasonably anticipated by adjacent land owners. As such, the Development Plan endeavour for a building of such a height and scale is an important consideration in assessing its relevant impact on views. P0 Ho 32 t3righiuu Si\ SO4A ,n 04U! 14754 I, !)i) 11 4 U4 bfgrnIrno&int 4hn :itm F 27 BEN GREEN & A s s o c 1 ates Furthermore, the potential impact on existing views has been heard on numerous occasions by the Courts who consider it represents a part of an amenity assessment, as was the case in Hutchens v City of Holdfast Bay [2007] SASC 238, Debelle J in which it was concluded that: 'Pro visions which refer to the preservation or protection of the amenity of the neighbourhood (or locality) will, as a general rule, be sufficient to require a planning authority to have regard to views enjoyed by residents which might be obstructed by the proposed development.' Hutchens was concerned with a proposal for a three-storey building on the Esplanade at Seacliff. The effect of this development would have been to cause the Appellant, who owned a property to the east of the subject land, to lose all: but the barest glimpse of the sea and the horizon on either side of the proposed building. Instead of a pleasant view, they will look directly at the rear walls and roof of the proposed building. To all intents and purposes, they will lose their view to the west. It will be an extreme loss of the view they currently enjoy.' Importantly, the proposal considered in Hutchens v City of Holdfast Bay represented two residential buildings in very close proximity to one another in which it was considered that the construction of the proposal would result in an 'extreme loss of the view they currently enjoy'. In my view, given the substantial built form setback of this proposal from the 'Avenue Apartments', located across a wide road reserve, and the Development Plan intent for a building of this size and scale, the resulting impacts on views will not be an 'extreme loss of the view' given the extent of views remaining on either side of the proposal and that it is a built form to be reasonably anticipated by adjacent land owners. 2.4 Concentration of apartment developments and property values Concerns have been raised as to the high concentration of apartments in the area and how that saturation will impact on relevant vacancy rates and property values. Importantly, the developer has undertaken a detailed feasibility study in formulating the type of dwelling to be incorporated in the proposal, which has resulted in a predominance of two bedroom dwellings in addition to four single bedroom dwellings. The resulting mixture is the result of a market focused decision made by the developer which is not a consideration of the Development Plan. In my view, the dwelling mix is one consistent with that of the Development Plan, representing a marketable residential product for which the developer is confident there will be strong demand. Furthermore, the assertion that property values in the area will be reduced by the approval of a development is often raised in representations against development proposals and equally so, the counter assertion that the value of existing properties can be increased. In a judgement from the ERD Court, it has been said that Development Plans in South Australia ". . .do not refer to land values except in the most oblique and inferential way here and there and the demonstration of any link, it if is possible, could only be made by very specialised evidence from a range of experts including planners, valuer's, land economists and the like" (Meyer and Northern Areas Council and Broughton Hills (1998)). PC) PAiN 492 136g litoit SA 504ft rn 0410 147 541 ERte1fl*!IIt,rnOIk.UflMLI ,,bi, I ! 1)it (1A? I BEN GREEN & A ssocIates This position was reinforced in St Raphael's School v Unley City Council [1995] where it was stated that "Fear of, even actual reductions in property value are rarely relevant in deciding a development application" The Development Plan makes no reference to the matter, it is therefore with respect not a valid/relevant consideration. 2.5 Traffic congestion and parking The proposal is consistent with the car parking requirements for the two bedroom apartments in that each is supplied with one parking space, and is in excess for the one bedroom apartments in that 4 spaces are supplied for the 4 apartments where the provision suggests a total of 3. In terms of visitor spaces, 8 dedicated on site spaces have been supplied as part of the proposal where the Development Plan calls for 18 spaces, a shortfall of 10. A traffic report has been prepared by a qualified traffic engineer Mr Frank Siow which considers the appropriateness of the level of car parking associated with the development. The report identifies the sites proximity to effective public transport, cycling and footpaths which allows the master planning of St Clair to encourage non-car modes of transport, along with direct access to on street parking from the site, particularly on Post Parade and St Clair Avenue. It also reviews additional traffic generating guides produced to forecast car parking requirements. With these considerations, Mr Frank Siow is of the opinion that the number of car parks incorporated with the proposal is consistent with the intent of the Development Plan requirements and will not unreasonably impact on the existing on street parking provided. Furthermore, the subject site is directly adjacent to a large shopping centre and within a short walking distance of effective public transport options, it is ideally located for residents to undertake their day to day shopping, conveniences and commuting without requiring the use of a vehicle. As such, while the proposal will incorporate additional vehicles movements on the local road network, the pedestrian convenience of the location will ensure it will not result in the unreasonable congestion of the public roads. 2.6 Exhaust fumes emanating from the car park entrance Concerns have been raised regarding the potential amenity impact of vehicle exhaust fumes on the balconies of the adjacent apartment building due to extended vehicle idling at the entrance point of the apartment building. Qualified traffic engineer Frank Siow has undertaken a detailed assessment of the vehicle movements to and from the site and is of the opinion that the vehicle access to the development is able to be undertaken in a safe and convenient manner for which the existing public road network will not be unduly impacted. While it is recognised that there will be frequent movements through the new vehicle access point, it's design is considered to be appropriate to accommodate those movements without excessive vehicle idling, which will not unreasonably impact on the adjacent apartment building or associated balconies. £0 Box 392 Bi tuui, SA1048 ni 0410 147 541 br rtnmiItr,d.c,nnt, .am 1 1 2 UNIM76 29 llEN GREEN & Associates 3.0 CONCLUSION After careful consideration of the issues raised within the representations, it is my view, the application is not 'seriouslyat variance' with the provisions of the Development Plan and for all the above reasons, I conclude: • the proposal provides for an orderly and economic form of high density residential development incorporating an alternative form of higher density apartment living promoting active street frontages appropriate for the residents of the subject locality; • the proposed development is designed with regard to adjoining development in terms of separation and appropriate landscape buffering and is suitably catered for by infrastructure (through development of the St Clair) division, car parking and access arrangements; • the merit in this application, beyond the care and consideration undertaken in the design and siting of the development with appropriate setbacks, car parking in accordance with the recommendations of a qualified traffic engineer is the fact the proposed building is incorporating affordable housing close to public transport, goods and services and public open space. • the proposal does not threaten the attainment of the provisions of the subject Residential Zone, the Cheltenham Policy Area 22 or the Charles Sturt (City) Development Plan provisions more generally and does not prejudice the amenity of the locality. It is therefore submitted that the proposed residential flat development exhibits significant merit to warrant planning consent.
