shall incorporate light weight cladding on the second storey rear
elevation, the use of a matt finish on the roof tiles and be in
accordance with the Schedule of External Finishes submitted by Masterton

AN AMENDMENT WAS MOVED BY COUNCILLOR SMART, seconded by
COUNCILLOR HUTCHENCE,
THAT Development
Application No. DA/34/2012 for the erection of a dwelling-house at Lot 2, DP 1168169, No. 82A Pretoria Parade, Hornsby be deferred to enable the Group Manager
Planning Division to facilitate discussions with the applicant concerning
opportunities to amend the proposal to minimise impacts on the adjacent
heritage item at No. 33 Frederick Street, Hornsby.
A FORESHADOWED MOTION WAS MOVED BY COUNCILLOR MILLS,
THAT pursuant to Section 80(1)(b) of the Environmental
Planning and Assessment Act 1979, Development
Application No. DA/34/2012 for the erection of a dwelling-house at Lot 2, DP 1168169, No. 82A Pretoria Parade Hornsby be refused for the following
reasons:
1. Pursuant
to Section 79C(1)(a)(i) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act
1979, the proposal is unsatisfactory as the State Environmental Planning
Policy No. 1 objection relating to non-compliance with the applicable floor
space ratio provision is not well founded.
2. The
proposal is unsatisfactory in respect to Section 79C(1)(a)(iii) of the
Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, as the two storey height of
the dwelling house is contrary to the Height element of the Dwelling House
Development Control Plan which would result in unacceptable privacy and
amenity impacts on adjacent properties.
3. The
proposal is unsatisfactory in respect to Section 79C(1)(a)(iii) of the
Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, as the unbroken wall length
of the dwelling house is contrary to the design element of the Dwelling House
Development Control Plan which would result in unacceptable amenity impacts
on adjacent properties.
4. The
proposal is unsatisfactory in respect to Section 79C(1)(a)(iii) of the
Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979, as the height, bulk, scale
and design of the dwelling house is contrary to the design element of the
Heritage Development Control Plan which would result in a dwelling that is inconsistent with the established
character of the Pretoria Parade Heritage Conservation Area.
5. Pursuant to Section 79C(1)(b) of the Environmental
Planning and Assessment Act 1979, the bulk,
scale and design of the proposed dwelling house would detract from the
setting and curtilage of the adjacent heritage listed property at No. 33 Frederick Street, Hornsby.
6. Pursuant
to the provisions of Section 79C(1)(e) of the Environmental Planning and
Assessment Act 1979, the proposed development would not be in the public
interest
THE AMENDMENT, MOVED BY COUNCILLOR SMART, seconded by
COUNCILLOR HUTCHENCE WAS PUT AND LOST.
THE MOTION MOVED BY
COUNCILLOR Evans, seconded by
COUNCILLOR Browne, WAS PUT AND CARRIED.
