Approval of a proposed mixed use development on Cape Three Points Rd, Avoca Beach has been deferred by Gosford Council due to the complexity of issues raised at a site inspection.
The development application (DA47152/2015) is for construction of ground-level retail with 27 units of shop top housing and a basement car park. The applicant is Australian Consulting Architects and the site is 14-18 Cape Three Points Rd.
A report from Gosford Council’s department of governance and planning to its Tuesday, June 23 ordinary meeting had recommended that Council approve the development application subject to conditions. The mixed use development on the 2,719 square metre site had been referred to council due to the receipt of 55 public submissions and upon request from a councillor.
At the June 23 meeting, Council determined that a site inspection was needed before they could approve the development. The site inspection was held on Tuesday, July 21 and the applicant was required to have a skeletal framework erected on the site for the inspection and to fl ag the trees on the site that are to be removed.
Due to the complexity of issues raised at the site inspection, consideration of the development application has been deferred for a future Council meeting to allow staff time to consider the community feedback.
