A development application has been lodged for a new multi-unit residential building at 70 Reeve Street, Clayfield. The proposal, currently under public notification, includes five three-bedroom dwellings within a four-storey complex.
This project is part of a broader trend of residential densification in Clayfield. The suburb is transitioning from single-dwellings to multi-storey developments in response to zoning changes and the increasing demand for housing.
Development Proposal and Key Details
The development application (A006604286), submitted by Amren Investments Pty Ltd, is under impact assessment and is being reviewed by BCC. The proposed development includes:
- Five three-bedroom units
- Four-storey building (under 12.5 metres in height)
- Private courtyards with primary open spaces exceeding 12sqm
- New driveway with 6.0m wide access
- 12 car spaces, including visitor parking
- 9 bicycle spaces
- 85sqm (11.2%) of landscaped green space with deep planting
The application is now in its public notification period, which commenced on 14 February 2025 and will conclude on 7 March 2025. During this period, community members can review the proposal and submit feedback before making a final decision.
Planning and Approval Process
The development application, submitted on 4 September 2024, falls under an impact-assessable category. Assessment Officer Cameron Rush is overseeing the review, ensuring compliance with BCC’s planning regulations.
If approved, the project will bring new residential opportunities to Clayfield with modern amenities and landscaped open spaces. However, impact-assessable applications require thorough scrutiny, allowing for public feedback before making decisions.
Community Considerations and Next Steps
Local residents can express their concerns or support as the proposal remains under public notification. Factors such as traffic impact, building height, and neighbourhood character will likely be key considerations.
No appeal result has been determined, as the application remains under assessment. Further updates will be provided once BCC decides on the proposal.
