All roof materials and finishes must be matte finish, non-reflective and in one of the following colour tones:

No dwelling is to be built with exposed stumps.
Aluminium sliding windows and doors are unlikely to be approved if visible from the Public Realm, unless they are manufactured from commercial or semi commercial sections.
The front facade ( and secondary frontages) must not include lightweight infill panels above doors, windows or garage doors. The finish/colour above the opening must match the finish/colour on either side of the opening.
