SubjectSite

The subject site is legally identified as Lot 49 in DP 30186, but commonly known as 166Guntawong Road, Rouse Hill. The site itself can be best described as a large rectangularshapedlandparcelwithafrontageof65.9mtoGuntawongRoad,andanaveragelotdepthof approximately 307.15m, resulting in a total site area of 20234.5m2. It is noted that apercentageofthesiteareaistobededicatedforfutureroads,aswellastheeasementarea,whichwill reduce the site’s total area to 13150.6m2. In addition, an electricity easementruns through the site which also affects the useable portion of the site on whichdevelopmentcanoccur.Residingwithin theRiverstoneEast Precinct, the sitebounds large comparable semi-rurallots to itsnorth,east southandwesternboundaries.Currentlya residentialdwelling,andassociatedstructuresarelocatedonthesite.Thisisillustratedbyaerialmapbelow.

It is noted that 3616.5m2 of the site area is to be dedicated for future roads,whichwillreduce the site’s total area to 16,618m2 when including the easement area. Theconstruction of the planned new road networks will result in the site having multiplefrontagesatthecompletionoftheroadnetworks.

5. CrimePreventionThroughEnvironmentalDesign(CPTED)CPTED is the term thatencompasses thephilosophical theoryandpractical applicationofdesign practices for buildings and places that seek to prevent crime. A building or placedesignedwithCPTEDprinciplesinmindachieves–

- deterring crime by increasing the perception and chance of crime being detected,witnessed,challengedorcriminalscaptured;

- makingtheopportunitiesforcrimeoccurrencemoredifficult;and- limitingorconcealingopportunitiesforcrime.

TheNSWPoliceForcedescribethe“SaferbyDesign”approachinthefollowingmanner–

Crime Prevention through Environmental Design (CPTED) is a crime preventionstrategy that focuses on the planning, design and structure of cities andneighbourhoods. It reduces opportunities for crime by using design and placemanagementprinciplesthatreducethelikelihoodofessentialcrimeingredients(law,offender,victimortarget,opportunity)fromintersectingintimeandspace.Predatory offenders often make cost-benefit assessment of potential victims andlocationsbeforecommittingcrime.CPTEDaimstocreatethereality(orperception)that the costs of committing crime are greater than the likely benefits. This isachievedbycreatingenvironmentalandsocialconditionsthat:

- Maximise risk tooffenders (increasing the likelihoodof detection, challengeandapprehension);

- Maximise the effort required to commit crime (increasing the time, energyandresourcesrequiredtocommitcrime);

- Minimisetheactualandperceivedbenefitsofcrime(removing,minimisingorconcealingcrimeattractorsandrewards);and

- Minimise excuse making opportunities (removing conditions thatencourage/facilitaterationalisationofinappropriatebehaviour).

CPTEDemploysfourkeystrategies.Theseareterritorialre-enforcement,surveillance,access control and space/activitymanagement. All CPTED strategies aim to createtheperceptionorrealityofcapableguardianship.

The four key strategies havebeenapplied to thedevelopmentproposal and analysis andcommentaryisprovidedinbelow.



Surveillance

Crime can be reduced by providing opportunities for effective surveillance. In areaswithhigh levels of natural and passive surveillance offenders are deterred from committing acrime.Naturalandpassivesurveillanceinrelationtotheproposalneedstobeunderstoodatthemacro/sitelevelandtheindividualoccupantlevel.Macro/SiteLevelThe scale of the subject site and the proposed development results in the need for theintroduction of a series of frontages to public places (streets and open space) and thecreationof internalisedprivateopen spaceandmovement spaces. The followingpassivesurveillanceattributesaredemonstratedintheproposal:- The site is broken down by roads and through site links, introducing a number of

publicly accessible components and places. The public spaces lead to consistentsurveillanceopportunities24hoursaday,7daysaweek.

- Sight lines from thepublic spaces (roads andpathways) are generally to theexternalouteredgesoftheproposedbuildings,lobbyspacesanddrivewayentrances.Thesitelinesareclearandarenotoverlycomplicatedorblockedbylandscaping.

- Landscaping provides for designation of spaces without creating “blind” spots orconcealmentareas.

IndividualOccupantLevelTheproposalcreatesaseriesofcommunalopenspacesinaprivatesettinguniquetoeachbuildinggroup.Theproposalischaracterisedbyaseriesofprivatelobbiesthroughoutthebuilding that create individual address and sense of ownership. The following passivesurveillanceattributesaredemonstrated:- A series of entry and exit points to the buildings with living areas and balconies

designed to overlook the various street frontages as well as the internal communalopenspacearea;

- Clearsightlinestothebuildingfromthestreetandfromthebuildingtothestreetareprovided.

- Landscaping does not result in “blind” spots or areas for hiding with the proposedlandscapeplantingsdesigntoenableclearsightlinestoentrypointstothebuilding.

- The apartments are orientated toward the street and communal areas and providenumerousopportunities forpassivesurveillanceofpublicspacestoactasadeterrentforcriminalactivity;

- The‘eyesonthestreet’approachtothestreetfrontageandcommunalareawillservetodiscourageanti-socialbehaviour;

- Concealment opportunities are limited and appropriate lighting will be provided topubliclyaccessibleareas;and

- Theseriesofindividualentrypointstothebuildingassistincreatingownershipofeachspaceand improved recognitionand familiaritywith fellow residentspeculiar toeachlobby. Accordingly, it ismore likely thatnon residents are likely tobe identifiedandsubjecttoadditionalsurveillance.



Accesscontrol

Theuseofphysical and symbolicbarriers to attract, channelor restrict themovementofpeople assists inminimising opportunities for crime and increases the effort required tocommitacrime.Inthisregardtheproposalprovides:- Enclosedprivatecourtyardsontheground levelassist inclearly identifyingpublicand

privateaccesspoints;- Thedesignallowsforeaseinclearlymarkingentrancepointsandwayfindingfeatures

suchaspathways,lightingandsignage;- Security doors are provided within the basement to distinguish between the public

visitor parking spaces and private parking areas. Thereby preventing unauthorisedaccesstotheprivatebasementparkingareas;and

- Opportunity exists to incorporate security access doors to lobby’s which could becontrolledbycards,codesorkeys.

- Itisintendedthat,subjecttoagreementbyrelevantserviceauthorities,mailboxesaretobeprovidedsecurelyinthebuildinglobbyspacestoeachbuilding.

Territorialreinforcement

Placesthatarewellmaintainedanddesignedareoftenmoreregularlyvisitedandendowedwith a sense of community ownership. Accordingly, well used spaces reduce crimeopportunities.Inthisregardtheproposalprovides:- Highqualitylandscapedprivateopenspacetoencourageitsusebyresidents;- Fosteringofownershipofopenspaceareasgivenallocationtounits;- Delineating between public and private areas through the use of landscaping and

boundarywallsorscreensaroundcourtyardsetc;and- Theprovisionofanumberof lobbies thataccess relatively fewapartmentsandallow

forincreasedopportunityforfamiliarisationwithneighboursandoccupants.Space/ActivityManagement

Wellmaintained and cared for spaces discourage crime as they tend to bemore activelyusedandunwelcomepersonsarereadilyidentified.Inthisregardtheproposalprovides:- For the establishment of a body corporate responsible for space management

strategies includeactivity coordination, site cleanliness, rapid repairof vandalismandgraffiti,theplacementoflightingandthemaintenanceofcommonareasandfurniture.

- Asaddressedtheprivatisationofopenspaceareasvisibletothestreetwillencourageasenseofownershipandensureongoingmaintenancebyresidents.
