PUBLIC CONSULTATION/ REFERRALS According to the EPA&A S4.15, a dwelling that needs some renovation with a consent needs the following: • A notification for the public to know about the renovation to the site.

• Sending a notice to the immediate neighbors/ property owners about the site development.

• A notice displayed on the development site.

• A notice is put on the local newspapers for the public to know about the site development.

For the 47 Temple Street, A notice had been put up in front of the dwelling and in the local news papers for the public to see and make submissions against the development (if required). According to the planning controls and the submitted documents, the development has a negligible impact on the stakeholders (neighbors). So far no submissions were made against this development. The development will have an insignificant impact on the nearest heritage listed building 32 Temple Street and the heritage conservation area- Annandale Farm as mentioned in the Heritage Impact Statement submitted to the council and so it does not need to be referred to any other agency (Heritage Council).

CONCLUSION The sole purpose behind the development is to provide the basic amenities to the dwellers of the subject site and at the same time respect the present using pattern as a dwelling in that area. The developers intend to stick to the codes of the Marrickville LEP and DCP (planning instruments) while renovating the dwelling. After verifying the Statement of Environmental Effects, Heritage Impact Statement, Basix Certificates and other supporting documents it can be concluded that the site development is satisfactory and can be approved. There are insignificant impacts on the heritage listed site, the surrounding environment and heritage conservation area. Thus the renovation complies with the EPA&A, SEPP, Marrickville LEP 2011 and Marrickville DCP 2011 and also the public interest stays unharmed.

RECOMMENDATIONS Following are the recommendations made for the subject site- DA201900058, 47 Temple Street, Stanmore, NSW 2048: • If looked at the overall design, the south facing window of the proposed new floor is not quite in proportion to the windows of the ground floor. The windows on the ground floor are a combination of black and white unlike the total black colored windows on the new floor as presented by the architects in the material and finishes schedule.

• According to the submitted plan, windows on the first floor (W06, W07) will let in sufficient sunlight to the bedroom 5. But bedroom 4 window (W05) will not let in much sunlight especially during the winter season. So, the plan for the 4th bedroom needs to be changed for sufficient sunlight to let in by changing the size of the window (W05).

• Use of concrete would be recommended than the use of timber and steel for the new structure because, the timber walls will have to deal with the problems like biotic and abiotic deterioration, expansion and contraction, moisture issues, termites etc.
