    Clause 27.2.1.2 states:

    A person may not:

    1. display on or within a building, a sign that covers all or part of a window , except for a window on the ground floor;

    Clause 27.6.5.6 states:

    Flat wall mounted signs in Business 1, 2 and 8 zones in the Isthmus:

    1. when located above the street verandah or more than 3 metres above the ground level in the absence of a street verandah shall:
    1. be limited to 1 sign per business of not more than 1 square metre on street frontage walls, with the cumulative area of all such signs on street frontage walls not exceeding 25% of the area of the wall;
    2. be not more than 5 metres above ground level when placed on street frontage walls.

    In this case, the proposal is to keep the existing signs that fill the top portion of each of the windows along the north and west elevation of the upper level of the building with the signs occupying a total of 7mē

    at 4/666 Dominion Road, Balmoral, described as Lot 3 DP 7621, CT 898/63, be approved dispensation for the following reasons:

    1. the sign is consistent with the objectives of the Bylaw
    2. the sign will have no adverse effects on traffic or pedestrian safety
    3. the size and location of the sign will not detract from the amenity of the surrounding area
    4. it is not possible to comply with the Signs Bylaw because the premises are located on an upper level and the exterior of the premises contains no blank wall, only windows. In this context, placing signs on the top part of windows is considered desirable because the signs would not adversely affect or obscure the building form or the modulation of the building.

    This application is approved subject to the conditions that follow.

    1. The proposed activity shall be carried out in accordance with the plans and all information submitted as part of this application being:
    • the letter from James Yao of NCP Trading Ltd, dated 12 October 2007

    • the non-complying access will not result in an increased level of traffic safety effects beyond what already exists, as casual users will not use the rear car park
    • the car coming device proposed will ensure safe access for vehicles using the site and a safe pedestrian environment beside the Mount Eden Road vehicle crossing
    • no additional car parking is physically practicable on site
    • the site is on a main road with adequate public transport services
    • sufficient on street car parking is available within the vicinity and the car parking shortfall will not detract from surrounding amenity values.

    Reasons for the Decision
