DA/807/2008

1 Sorrell Street, Parramatta

 

10: Mixed Use

 

PLEP 2007

Clause 22C – Car parking; Clause 22D – Building Separation.

Car parking Requirement – 44 spaces.

Proposed – 38 spaces. Variation – 6 spaces.

 

Building Separation

Required – 9 metres between height of (level 6) 36m & 54m.
