Walls, Materials, Wall Articulation, Corner Allotments

The Architectural Design Code controls the detail of the buildings, including materials, detailing and composition and proportion. The code promotes a design derived from the designs of the traditional Australian Country Town.

The requirements of the Architectural Design Code apply to those parts of the building within the control zone applicable (Classic or Premium), as well as those that are visible from the street and publicly accessible areas.

Materials other than those specified may be used with the approval of the Design Review Panel(DRP). Variations to this code may be granted by the DRP in cases of architectural merit, site conditions or other extenuating circumstances. In the event that DRP allows a variation, relaxation or waiver of the application of the Design Guidelines, this will not set a precedent nor imply any such action will apply again The code controls apply to all elements of the building:

• Walls • Windows and doors • Floors • Roofs

• Verandah, Pergolas and Shading Devices

• Garages, Carports and Driveways

PLAN FORM AND SITING Houses should be generally sited parallel to the side boundaries, except where allotments are tapered in which case the house façade should be generally parallel to a line drawn between the ends of the street boundary of the allotment.

FAÇADE MATERIALS AND DETAIL Façade materials and detail must comply with the detailed requirements set out below.
