Verandah control
Verandah control Any verandah constructed on any building frontage facing a public space, including roads, must: Have a minimum clearance of 2.5m directly above the footpath or formed ground surface; Not exceed a maximum height of 4m measured between the base of the verandah fascia and the footpath or formed ground surface directly below; Be setback a minimum of 450mm from any point along the kerbing extending back to the site boundary; and Not exceed a maximum width of 3m from the front of the building. This standard does not apply to: Service stations. Assessment criteria where the standard is infringed: The extent to which any non-compliance is necessary to provide for functional or operational requirements of the activities on the site, or for people’s health and safety; Whether sufficient clearance is provided for pedestrians and the delivery of goods where any verandah is proposed lower than 2.5m above the footpath or ground surface level; and The extent to which any verandahs wider than 3m or within 450mm of any kerbing allow clearance for unencumbered vehicle movement, parking and loading.
