Draft Development Control Plan
9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill (Draft for public exhibition 9 October to 8 November 2013) 1
Part 1. Introduction
Land at 9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill, is zoned to 2(b) Medium Density Residential under
the Woollahra Local Environmental Plan 1995 (Woollahra LEP). The Woollahra LEP also sets a
maximum building height of 9.5 metres and a floor space ratio of 0.625:1 for the land.
It is envisaged that the land will be redeveloped for a residential purpose. The LEP controls will
permit medium density residential development.
The controls in this DCP seek to guide development on the land.
Name of th is development contro l p lan 1.1
This plan is known as the "Development Control Plan for 9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill"
(the DCP).
This plan was adopted by Council on ……………………… and came into effect on ……………………….

1979 (the Act) and Part 3 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Regulation 2000.
Where this development contro l plan appl ies 1.2
This plan applies to land known as 9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill, being Lot 101 DP 827011,
as identified on the plan below.

9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill 2 (Draft for public exhibition exhibition 9 October to 8 November 2013)
Development to which this plan appl ies 1.3
This plan applies to development requiring consent under Woollahra LEP.
Under section 79C of the Act, Council is required to take into consideration the relevant
provisions of any applicable DCP when determining an application for development.
Objectives of the development contro l p lan 1.4
The objectives of this DCP are to:
facilitate development that is permissible under the provisions of Woollahra LEP; and
guide the design and location of development to address the amenity of adjoining properties.
Related plans and pol icies 1.5
Woollahra LEP 1995
This DCP supplements the requirements of Woollahra LEP and must be read in conjunction with
that LEP. If there is any inconsistency between this DCP and Woollahra LEP, the LEP will prevail.
Council’s development control plans
This DCP is to be read in conjunction with Council’s other DCPs applying to the land, including
but not limited to:
Woollahra Residential Development Control Plan 2003; and
Parking Development Control Plan 2011.
In the event of any inconsistency between this plan and the other development control plans, this
plan prevails unless otherwise specified in this plan or in other plans.

Part 2. Design and s it ing of development
Objectives and controls 2.1
Objectives Controls
O1 To ensure that the siting of development
does not unreasonably impact on the
amenity of adjoining properties.
C1 A setback is provided at all boundaries which
adjoin the property that:
is sufficient for development to minimise
privacy and overshadowing impacts;
can deliver best practice building
separation controls contained in the
Residential Flat Design Code 2002;
is an effective dimension to enable
opportunities for private open space in
conjunction with landscaping; and
can accommodate substantial and
effective landscape planting and screening
along boundaries.
Note: The Residential Flat Design Code 2002
was produced by the NSW Planning
Department as a resource to improve the
design of residential flat development.
C2 Where suitable, deep soil landscaping or
screen landscaping is to be provided within
the boundary setback areas to reduce
overlooking.
O2 To ensure that development is designed
to reflect view sharing principles.
C3 Having regard to views over the site from
adjoining properties in Bellevue Road, the
building design demonstrates that view
sharing has been addressed. This should be
through thoughtful distribution of built form
across the site and well-considered building
design and landscaping, addressing matters
such as, but not limited to:
reduced development intensity, such as a
single storey building height, on parts of
the north-eastern end of the site;
increased setbacks along the boundary
adjoining No.60 Bellevue Road;
building modulation including separation
of buildings or their components;

Objectives Controls
articulated roof forms;
suitable location of vegetation,
particularly in regard to the height and
width of species;
location of aerials and telecommunication
devices;
location of photovoltaic panels; and
any other architectural and design
solutions.
Note: A view analysis must be submitted with
a development application addressing
matters identified in Tenacity Consulting v
Warringah Council [2004] NSWLEC 140.
O3 To ensure that building materials and
roof forms are compatible with the
setting and location of the site.
C4 Building materials and colours are recessive.
Building design complements and does not
detract from the visual quality and character
of the neighbourhood.
C5 Roof forms are well articulated and designed
having regard to neighbouring amenity,
overlooking, and the visibility of the site
from North Cooper Park.
C6 Air conditioning plant or other service
equipment are not located on roofs.
O4 To improve pedestrian connections from
the site to Bellevue Road.
C7 Easement between Nos.56 and 58 Bellevue
Road is upgraded and maintained to provide
for safe pedestrian use, subject to
arrangements with Council for right of way
access.
Note: Council may impose conditions of
consent that specify Council’s standards for
upgrading the easement.
O5 To ensure that vehicle and pedestrian
access to the site is safe and convenient
for residents and visitors.
C8 Where vehicular access to the site is by a
single lane, traffic signals are installed to
manage vehicles entering and exiting the
site.

Dear Sir
Response to Draft Development Control Plan for 9A Cooper Park Road, Bellevue Hill (Lot 101, DP 827011)
We refer to Woollahra Council’s letter of 8 October 2013 regarding Woollahra Council’s Draft Development Control Plan (“DCP”) for 9A Cooper Park Road and the invitation to comment. We also refer to our earlier submission dated 30 June 2010 and 25 MAY 2012 regarding this subject site.
Vehicle and pedestrian access
As we are adjoining residents, it is of utmost concern to us that the proposed access route to this site appears to be a narrow, single lane combined pedestrian and vehicle access between 7A Cooper Park Road and 11 Cooper Park Road. We further note that it is suggested that traffic signals are installed to manage the vehicles entering and exiting the site. This proposal would certainly have a major impact on our property. As we have previously made clear, we oppose any such proposal as untenable.
In addition, the DCP proposes improved access to the site from Bellevue Road, utilising the easement between numbers 56 and 58 Bellevue Road. It is not clear whether this narrow walkway is supposed to be the sole pedestrian access to Bellevue Road, or whether it also proposed to allow for pedestrian access to Cooper Park Road. As noted, above, it is unsound to propose that the already narrow access between 7A Cooper Park Road and 11 Cooper Park Road can accommodate pedestrians and vehicles safely.
The southeastern panhandle (total of 264m2)appears to be included in the calculation of the site area. This is incorrect, given the panhandle is entirely inaccessible and unusable for development.
Environmental impact
The proposed DCP does not address the local fauna that inhabits the site, such as:
• Bluetongue Lizards• Marsh Snakes• Brush-‐tail Possums• Powerful Owls
We have previously sighted and recently again heard the call of the Powerful Owl at 9A Cooper Park Road, which is listed as being a vulnerable species in NSW. We would like to have nature conservation concerns taken into account in the preparation of this DCP.
We reiterate our earlier submission that a more appropriate use for this site is to preserve the land as open space, allowing for community use, which is sympathetic to both community needs and environmental protection.
Thank you, for the opportunity to comment.
Yours faithfully,
Heidrun and Torsten Blackwood
