2/563 Sandy Bay Road, Sandy Bay, change of use visitor accommodation

The Hobart City Council Planning Committee meeting has refused a development application for a change of use to visitor accommodation at 2/563 Sandy Bay Road, Sandy Bay.

The application was refused on the grounds that the proposal would cause an unreasonable loss of amenity to the long-term residents occupying the one remaining residential lot within the strata scheme, the privacy of residents and the likely increase in noise for the residents.

The application received four representations objecting to the proposal during the advertised period.

Further information about the proposal can be found in the agenda for the Planning Committee on the City of Hobart website.
