The City has received a development application for a shed for Lot 264 (7) Nyinda Entrance, South Guildford. The shed is to be 6 metres by 6 metres in size with a height of 3.229 metres.
The applicant is proposing for the shed to be located within the side setback area for the northeastern lot boundary in variation to the as-of-right requirements of the Residential Design Codes - 5.1.3 Lot Boundary Setbacks
- A northeastern setback of 0.6 metres is proposed in lieu of the Table 2a 1-metre requirement.
An additional variation is proposed to vary the wall height standards for large and multiple outbuildings, in deviation from the as-of-right provisions of Residential Design Codes 5.4.3 – Outbuildings.
- A wall height of 3.229 metres is proposed instead of the required 2.4 metres, in variation with deemed-to-comply provision C3 (ii) relating to large and multiple outbuildings.
The City is therefore conducting alternative merit-based assessments against the design principles due to the above variations and seeks feedback in relation to the proposed variations from affected landowners.
Submissions ending: 19 November 2025.
