Council considers non-complying proposal

An application for additions to a house at Patricia Place, Killcare, was approved by Central Coast Council at its meeting on Monday, October 9.

The proposal had been referred to the Council meeting because it exceeded development controls by more than 10 per cent.

The details of the application were outlined in edition 455 (October 8) of Peninsula News.

Mr Richard Matthews attended the October 8 Council meeting to speak in favour of the proposal.

"I am here to address any objections, and to point out the only real difference to the regulation is the fairly small protrusion for the lift on the building," Mr Matthews said.

"Otherwise the renovation is no higher than the existing building itself and causes no overshadowing," he said.

The proposal, as recommended by Council staff, was moved by Cr Greg Best and seconded by Cr Richard Mehrtens.

None of the Councillors spoke against the motion but two Councillors, Kyle MacGregor and Louise Greenaway, abstained.
