PUBLIC NOTICE

DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION – PROPOSED HOME OCCUPATION
LOT 13 (NO 20) GROWSE STREET, WILLIAMS

The occupant of the abovementioned lot has lodged a planning application proposing to operate a ‘home occupation’ within the living room of the existing house.

The applicant advises that she recently obtained a Diploma in Remedial Massage, and seeks to use her skills to assist with the health and wellbeing of the local community. She advises that she can provide relaxation massages, as well as deep tissue, sports and remedial massages.

The applicant advises that :

- At this stage she proposes to operate one day a week from 9.00am to 5.00pm. She may open for a second additional day by the end of the year.
- The house has an existing carport which can accommodate 2 cars. During her work hours, her husband works (off site) so there will be one space available in the carport for customers.
- It is anticipated that the number of bookings per day will average 4, with a maximum of 6 customers.
- No other person will be involved or employed to operate the business.
- There is car parking at the rear of the lot which can be used by occupants of the lot if required (to keep one bay in the carport available).
- Approximately 20m2- within the existing living room space will be used to provide massages.

Prior to determining this application, the Shire would like to provide you with the opportunity to comment on the proposal. The plans can be viewed at the Shire of Williams, 9 Brooking Street, Williams during office hours or on the Shire website.

Should you wish to make a submission on the proposal, your comments (in writing) will need to be lodged to the Sire within 14 days, by the 31 May 2023.

Please note, if no comments are received by the closure date, we will assume that you have no comment you wish to make and the application will be assessed and determined on its merits and without any further consultation.
