(d) the building must include a hotel with a reception area and related restaurants, cafes and shops at street level,
(e) the building must be designed so that people visiting the building will have access to indoor and outdoor areas on the top floor and so that use of the top floor will encourage such access (for example, a restaurant or function room would be a suitable use for the top floor),
(f) the architectural design of the building must have regard to the heritage value of the streetscapes of the streets to which it has frontage. The building must have a traditional and reasonably symmetrical exterior that, in the opinion of the consent authority, makes a landmark contribution to Kiama’s character. There must be double verandahs over the footpaths of both Terralong and Manning Streets that are at least 2 metres deep.
