Site planning risk brief

Units from approximately 90 sq.m to 83.5sq.m as follows: (a) Artist Studio No. 1 is reduced from a permitted 28.01 sq.m to 18.80 sq.m. (b) Artist Studio No. 2 is reduced from a permitted 26.73 sq.m to 26.73 sq.m (c) Artist Studio No. 3 is increased from a permitted 17.63 sq.m to 22.50 sq.m (d) Artist Studio No. 4 is reduced from permitted 17.84 sq.m to 15.50 sq.m.
