If the "additions" including additional sleeping accommodation then I would support this application on the proviso that it doesn't adversely impact the amenity of neighbouring properties.
With the state government's mandate to increase the population in the municipality by 15,000 by 2030 (?), I'd rather see it increased by supporting developments such as these then to see the construction of the monstrous, excessively overheight, shadow & wind-tunnel inducing, canyon creating developments we have seen approved in recent times. We don't have the land constrictions of cities like Hong Kong and therefore do not need to fowl our environment the way developers and the state government think is ok.
