	the panel advised: The Ku-ring-gai Local Planning Panel advise Council that: The Panel has reviewed the Planning Proposal and the information provided in Attachment A10 and concurs that it has strategic and site specific merit.  The Panel supports the Planning Proposal being referred to the DPE for Gateway Determination subject to the amendments in the table of assessment Attachment A10. The proposed rezoning to R4 High Density Residential is consistent with surrounding residential development and will provide for additional housing in close proximity to shops, services and transport.  The proposed height and FSR controls are consistent with adjoining residential development and considered appropriate. The Panel notes the purpose of the concept plan is to inform the Planning Proposal with a potential scheme.  The Panel’s recommendation is not an endorsement of the concept scheme and matters such as future building envelopes, apartment design guidelines and trees to be retained/removed are all matters to be considered and addressed at a future development application stage.
