The application proposes the continued operation of a home business at 18 Boronia Avenue, Nedlands. The home business would facilitate the production of ‘Indian Sweets’.

Please view the Proposed Plans in the document library.

The aspects of the development application which the City is seeking input from the Community on are as follows:

The use of a ‘home business’ at a residential zoned property, has an ‘A’ use permissibility under the City of Nedlands Local Planning Scheme No. 3.

An ‘A’ use permissibility:

“means that the use is not permitted unless the local government has exercised its discretion by granting development approval after giving notice in accordance with clause 64 of the deemed provisions.”

Please note that the home business has already commenced, and the applicant has advised the following:

• The proposed home business is for the production of Indian sweets.
• The business is limited to the kitchen and associated store rooms, contained within the dwelling (as indicated on the plans).
• The business is operated by the homeowner, who resides in the property and one employee, who does not live on the property.
• The business makes deliveries once to twice a month, via means of a Campbells small delivery truck.
• Deliveries to the property are conducted between 10am and 4pm.
• The business operates Tuesday to Friday, 10am-4pm.
• No signage or advertising is proposed as part of the business.
• Approximately 50kg of sweets are produced each week.

The applicants are proposing Additions (Extensions and Retaining Walls) to Single Dwelling at 95 Alderbury Street, Floreat.

Please view the Proposed Plans in the document library.

The application is being advertised because the development requires an assessment against the Design Principles of the Residential Design Codes for the lot boundary setbacks and the streetscape.

Clause 5.1.3 – Lot Boundary Setbacks:

The Deemed-To-Comply Requirement C3.2 of Clause 5.1.3 Lot Boundary Setbacks of the Residential Design Codes (R-Codes) states that walls may be built up to a lot boundary behind the street setback where the wall abuts an existing or simultaneously constructed wall of similar of greater dimension.

This application has been advertised for comment because the proposed boundary wall is of a greater dimension to the already existing boundary wall at 93 Alderbury Street, Floreat.

Streetscape: Alderbury Street, Floreat

The proposed additions to the Single Dwelling are compliant with the 9m setback requirement as per Clause 26(1)(a)(i) of the City of Nedland’s Local Planning Scheme No. 3. However, the additions to the dwelling encroach into the front setback area. Even though these additions will be line with the front entrance of the dwelling, the additions are not in line with the boundary wall of the adjoining landowner to the East (93 Alderbury Street, Floreat). As a result, the application has been advertised to properties to the North of 95 Alderbury Street, Floreat to seek comment on the proposed additions.

Retaining walls are also proposed with the application. However, the retaining walls are compliant with the relevant clauses of the R-Codes.
