Assignment 2: DA Sample Docs

The set of documents used to submit a development application to council for this site have been posted into a folder called "DA Samples" in the same folder as the model for the neighbours as posted last week:

This should give you a good sense of the sort of material that is required in a full DA submission, as well as some additional direction for you as you prepare the material for your own submission. As noted previously, I do not expect you to produce a Statement of Environmental Effects (SoEE) to the length that you see here, nor as complete a set of drawings, but you do need to have explained your project FULLY, and to have addressed, in the SoEE, all of the potential council concerns.

Good luck everybody, I look forward to seeing what you have put together at the end of next week!

  1. Do we need to fill out the DA's development application form?

  2. Yes, the DA form itself is part of your submission

  4. Hi Wesley, With the existing building, should we estimate it with how it looks? This is needed for the Shadow diagram, Section + elevation and floor plans. Should we be including these details into our DA?

    Thanks!

  5. The existing building is really only directly relevant to the shadow diagram. Ideally, shadow diagrams will show the 'before' and 'after' versions of the shadows so that a council planner can compare the two to see if there is a greater or lesser impact from shadows in your proposed building.

    You do not need to show the existing building in your plans sections and elevations, although it can be useful to indicate their basic outline in the elevation in order to demonstrate the difference at the broadest level.
