The $3.1 million application proposes to expand one warehouse and demolish the other, retain two existing showrooms and develop five new warehouses, two showrooms with ancillary office space and a lunch bar.
The proposal includes 75 on-site car bays and 10 on-street bays to be constructed in the Packard Street verge.

Cr Mike Norman said he hoped to see end-of-trip bicycle facilities included in the development, which would help to alleviate the shortfall.
