BUILDING PERMIT

TEMPORARY PARKING PERMITS

General Exemption permits for construction vehicles i.e. residential or meter parking/loading zones. Click here for more information.

This permit does not authorise any works on the adjoining Council land. Any act that causes, or is likely to cause damage to Council’s land may be in breach of the Council’s Parks, Recreation and Natural Areas Bylaw and penalties may apply. The by law is available here.

Advice from the City of Hobart Parks and Recreation Unit (South Hobart Oval asset manager):

·          The front entrance on the northern side of the building should be the main entrance used by Wide Angle and their customers. The rear entrance opens into the oval and kiosk area (access to the ground), for use by oval users. The rear entrance may be used as an emergency exit. Users of the site will require a permit to use space external to the building for any activities.

·          Parking pressure within close proximity to the oval during events at the oval (i.e. weekend soccer) is high.

·          The Parks and Recreation Unit will be refurbishing the public toilets accessed off Washington Street within the 2017­18 financial year. This will include a DDA compliant toilet and changes to the toilet access. For further information, the applicant can contact Shannon Avery – Program Leader Recreation and Projects, on 6238 2956 or averys@hobartcity.com.au. Or Simon Munn (Capital Works Officer) – 62382 135 or munns@hobartcity.com.au.

·          It is noted that the site plan (titled AIS­17­441­Amended Plan, 21 June) has incorrectly labelled the public toilet facility as 'existing office'.

2     The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause E6.7.2 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because .with regard to pedestrian sightlines as outlined under AS/NZS 2890.1:2004 3.2.4, the fence's height and transparency make it unsafe.
