issues • proximity to existing brothel and residential premises • patron management – rear lane access – internal waiting areas – staff amenities

proximity to existing brothel and residential DCP requires that: • brothels are not located immediately adjacent or opposite residential premises • brothels are not within 75 m of existing sex services premises (measured as a radius to entrances) • the existing brothel is 60 m from a brothel at 278 Cleveland Street and adjacent and opposite residential premises • intensifying and expanding the brothel is contrary to anti-clustering provisions and will have an adverse impact on the character of the surrounding area
