The City has received a development application for a proposed ‘Single House’ located on Lot 208 (No.4) Surrey Way VIVEASH WA 6056.
The applicant is proposing an as-of-right variation to the lot boundary setbacks on the eastern boundary.
The details of the proposed development are as follows:
- Site Cover: 249.41m2
- Wall height: 2.959m
- Pitched Roof height: 5.8m.
The as-of-right variation is 1.2m in place of 1.5m from the eastern boundary (as seen on the associated site plans).
The City will conduct an alternative merit-based assessment against the design principles of the Residential Design Codes - 5.1.3 Lot boundary setbacks:
Design Principles:
P3.1 Buildings set back from lot boundaries or adjacent buildings on the same lot so as to:
- reduce impacts of building bulk on adjoining properties
- minimise the extent of overlooking and resultant loss of privacy on adjoining properties.
Prior to the City giving consideration to the proposal, comments from the surrounding owners are being sought.
Submissions ending: 1 October 2025.
