The City has received a development application for a carport at Lot 1005 (No.10) St Lawrence Drive, Beechboro.
The carport is proposed to be directly adjacent to the existing carport. The positioning will be 0.5 metres from the northern boundary and 5.5 metres from the street boundary.
The carport proposes variations to the lot boundary setback (northern side) and street setback requirements in accordance with Part B of the Residential Design Codes. These are as follows:
5.1.3 Lot Boundary Setbacks:
- A 0.5 metre setback is proposed to the northern lot boundary (adjacent to 12 St Lawrence Drive, Beechboro) instead of the 1-metre requirement.
5.2.1 Setback of Carports and Garages:
- A 5.5-metre street setback is proposed for the street boundary instead of the 6- metre requirement.
The City is completing a design principle assessment on the above variations and is seeking feedback from affected landowners.
