DA26/0149 - Outbuilding to Single House - 128 Station Street East Cannington
Your comments are invited!
The City has received a development application for an Outbuilding to an existing single house at the subject site.
In this instance, the application is being advertised to adjoining affected owners as the proposal does not meet all of the deemed-to-comply requirements of Residential Design Codes Vol 1 (R-Codes).
Matters for Your Consideration
The following departures from the deemed-to-comply provisions are identified that may impact adjoining properties:
Lot Boundary Setbacks
The proposed outbuilding includes a wall along North - Eastern (side) lot boundary, with a length of 12m and a height of 6m, setback 0.6m instead of 1.5m.
Although the proposed walls do not achieve the ‘deemed-to-comply’ pathway requirements, the variation can be considered against the ‘design principles’ of the R-Codes.

Personal contact details such as names, email addresses and telephone numbers will not be provided to the applicant. Written submissions may be the subject of Freedom of Information requests.
In accordance with Part 8 of Local Planning Policy LP-11 – Public Consultation of Planning Proposals, if no response is received from a notified owner or occupier, the City will assume there are no comments. A lack of response will not be interpreted as either support or objection.
Guidance on what is a “valid” or “non-valid” planning consideration is provided in the City’s Local Planning Policy LP.11 – Public Consultation of Planning Proposals.
What happens following consultation?
Once the consultation period closes, a delegated officer of the City will assess the proposal, taking into account relevant planning considerations and any feedback received from affected landowners and occupiers.
If the City makes a decision on the development application (approval or refusal), we will contact you to explain how your comments were considered.
In some cases, the application may be referred to a Council meeting for determination. If this occurs, you will receive an invitation to attend or view the meeting online.
