PART A

That pursuant to the Sullivans Cove Planning Scheme 1997, the Council refuse the application for outdoor dining at 29 Morrison Street Hobart and adjacent road reserve for the following reasons:

A photographic record of the Council's infrastructure adjacent to the subject site must be provided to the Council prior to any commencement of works. 

A photographic record of the Council’s infrastructure (e.g. existing property service connection points, roads, buildings, stormwater, footpaths, driveway crossovers and nature strips, including if any, pre-existing damage) will be relied upon to establish the extent of damage caused to the Council’s infrastructure during construction. In the event that the owner/developer fails to provide to the Council a photographic record of the Council’s infrastructure, then any damage to the Council's infrastructure found on completion of works will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

Reason for condition

To ensure that any of the Council infrastructure and/or site-related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner’s full cost.

COUNCIL RESOLUTION:

 

That the City Infrastructure Committee request an investigation into the possible removal of three car parking spaces located in front of 29 Morrison Street.

 

 

 

9.4      10 David Avenue, Sandy Bay - Partial Demolition and Front Fencing

            PLN-17-142 - File Ref: F17/135841

Ref:    Open CP 7.2.1, 9/10/2017

Application Expiry Date: 31 October 2017

Extension of Time: Not applicable

 

PART A

Pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council refuse the application for Partial Demolition and Front Fencing at 10 David Avenue SANDY BAY for the following reasons:

 

1.       The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause E.13.8.1 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the partial demolition of the existing front fence results in the loss of fabric or landscape elements that contribute to the historic cultural heritage significance of Heritage Precinct Sandy Bay 9 and the following do not apply: (i) there are environmental, social, economic or safety reasons of greater value to the community than the historic cultural heritage values of the place; (ii) there are no prudent or feasible alternatives and (iii) the replacement fence is more complementary to the heritage values of Heritage Precinct Sandy Bay 9.

 

2.       The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause E.13.8.2 A4 and P4 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the new front fence and gates are not sympathetic in design (including height, form, scale and materials), and setback to the style, period and characteristics of Heritage Precinct Sandy Bay 9.

 

3.       The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 10.4.7 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the new front fence and gates do not provide mutual passive surveillance between the road and the dwelling and are not compatible with the height and transparency of fences in the street.

PART B

That the Council significantly promote the risk of building front fences without appropriate Council approval and for this information to be promoted in writing to the architectural community and via suitable media platforms such as City News and social media.

 

 

 

Denison

Burnet                                                  That the recommendation be adopted.

•        Provide treatment measures to eliminate or otherwise mitigate to as low as reasonably practicable all identified risks; and 

•        Include a monitoring regime.

 

All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved report.
