Re: Development Variance Permit Application – Phase 7 Thetis Vale – Lund Road – Parking space length and wall height.

Attached is a plan showing our Phase 7 subdivision at Thetis Vale.

1. Parking Space Length – Our application is to permit a variance from 5.5m to 4.5m for the required parking space length in the driveway of the following lots 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9,10,11,12,13,14,15,18,19,20,21,23,24,32,33,34. I have attached the material attached to our variance application for our Phase 6 subdivision which illustrates and explains the need for a parking space length variance and similar circumstances apply for our Phase 7 subdivision. I have also included site plans for lots 10 and 20 which illustrate how the parking space length of 5.5m can be achieved to the curb or inside of the sidewalk for all the listed lots in Phase 7.
2. Wall Height – Our application is to vary the wall height from 1.2m to those heights shown on the attached grading plan.

• Lot 1 – 1.8m side yard
• Lot 2 – 1.8m side yard
• Lot 4 – 1.3m side yard
