DescriptionReasons for Decision
Note1. The application is not accompanied by a current BASIX report as required by State Environmental Planning Policy (BASIX). 2. The application is not accompanied by a Detailed Site Investigation as recommended in the Phase I Site Investigation Report and as such it has not been demonstrated that the site is suitable for the proposed use, or that the site can be remediated to the extent necessary for the proposed use. The application has not satisfied the requirements of State Environmental Planning Policy No. 55 - Remediation of Land. 3. The proposed development breaches the maximum permitted Floor Space Ratio pursuant to Clause 4.4 of Ryde Local Environmental Plan 2014 and Clause 23 of draft State Environmental Planning Policy (Housing). 4. The proposed development is uncharacteristic of development in the locality, having an inadequate front landscape setting, excessive length and excessive bulk at the rear. The front façade design emphasizes the two storey bulk of the building and the driveway “void” presenting an uncharacteristic streetscape. As such the application does not satisfactorily address the character test contained at Clause 30A of State Environmental Planning Policy (Affordable Rental Housing). 5. The proposed development has an uncharacteristic landscape setting as viewed from Balaclava Road and fails when assessed against Clause 29 of State Environmental Planning Policy (Affordable Rental Housing). 6. The design provides for an unacceptable level of privacy for proposed boarding room 2 from the pathway to the garbage and bike store areas. 7. The design affords an unacceptable level of amenity for residents due to privacy measures which would restrict sunlight and outlooks for some rooms. 8. The design affords an unacceptable level of amenity to residents with disabilities, with the majority of common open space (rear yard) not proposed to be landscaped in a manner such that it is suitably accessible. Further, inadequate information is provided in relation to the provision of clothes drying facilities for the occupants of accessible rooms. 9. The development fails to comply with Part 7.2 of the Ryde Development Control Plan 2014, as it fails to provide a storage area for bulky items such as furniture that is awaiting disposal. 10. The Plan of Management lodged with the application does not provide adequate information as required by Part 3.5 of the Ryde Development Control Plan 2014 and does not sufficiently protect the amenity of the residents and neighbours. 11. The application is not accompanied by an acoustic report assessing noise impacts from Balaclava Road on the proposed site or anticipated noise from the proposed use on adjoining residents. 12. The proposed development is not a permitted form of development in the R2 zone under Draft State Environmental Planning Policy (Housing).
