Roof-top terrace proposed for dual occupancy
A proposal to build a two-storey dual occupancy with a roof-top terrace at 23 Bangalow St, Ettalong, has been received by Central Coast Council.
The dual occupancy comprises three bedrooms per unit, with two on ground level and one first floor master bedroom).
The units have a ground level living area, first floor master bedroom and parents retreat, front courtyards and first floor decks.
Each unit has a roof-top terrace, and each has a two-car garage accessed from a rear laneway.
The development would be non-compliant with planning provisions in a number of ways.
The proposal has a floor space ratio of 0.59:1, where the maximum under the planning provisions is 0.5:1.
It also exceeds the height limit of 8.5 metres by 1.208 metres.
"The building height variation is attributed to the proposed roof top terrace stair access," the application states.
The design also exceeds the prescribed building envelope.
The application states that side setbacks of 1.5 metres are compliant with the planning provisions, but a rear setback of two metres is a metre short of the requirement for a three metre setback.
It also states that a front setback of 5.619 metres is "consistent with adjoining setbacks".
The public comment period closes on Friday, November 4.
