2.       Confirmation of Minutes

 

The minutes of the Open Portion of the City Planning Committee meeting held on Monday, 25 June 2018, are submitted for confirming as an accurate record.

 

 

 

 

3.       Consideration of Supplementary Items

Ref: Part 2, Regulation 8(6) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

Recommendation

 

That the Committee resolve to deal with any supplementary items not appearing on the agenda, as reported by the General Manager.

 

 

 

 

 

 

4.       Indications of Pecuniary and Conflicts of Interest

Ref: Part 2, Regulation 8(7) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

 

Aldermen are requested to indicate where they may have any pecuniary or conflict of interest in respect to any matter appearing on the agenda, or any supplementary item to the agenda, which the committee has resolved to deal with.

 

 

 

5.       Transfer of Agenda Items

Regulation 15 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.

 

A committee may close a part of a meeting to the public where a matter to be discussed falls within 15(2) of the above regulations.

 

In the event that the committee transfer an item to the closed portion, the reasons for doing so should be stated.

 

Are there any items which should be transferred from this agenda to the closed portion of the agenda, or from the closed to the open portion of the agenda?

 

6.       Planning Authority Items - Consideration of Items With Deputations

 

In accordance with the requirements of Part 2 Regulation 8(3) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the General Manager is to arrange the agenda so that the planning authority items are sequential.

 

In accordance with Part 2 Regulation 8(4) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Committee by simple majority may change the order of any of the items listed on the agenda, but in the case of planning items they must still be considered sequentially – in other words they still have to be dealt with as a single group on the agenda.

 

Where deputations are to be received in respect to planning items, past practice has been to move consideration of these items to the beginning of the meeting.

 

RECOMMENDATION

 

That in accordance with Regulation 8(4) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Committee resolve to deal with any items which have deputations by members of the public regarding any planning matter listed on the agenda, to be taken out of sequence in order to deal with deputations at the beginning of the meeting.

REcommendation

That:   Pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council approve the application for multiple dwellings at 6 and 8 Broughton Avenue, Mount Nelson for the reasons outlined in the officer’s report and a permit containing the following conditions be issued:

 

 

GEN

 

 

The use and/or development must be substantially in accordance with the documents and drawings that comprise PLN­18­178 ­ 6 BROUGHTON AVENUE & 8 BROUGHTON AVENUE MOUNT NELSON TAS 7007 ­ Final Planning Documents except where modified below.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

 

TW

 

 

The use and/or development must comply with the requirements of TasWater as detailed in the form Submission to Planning Authority Notice, Reference No. TWDA 2018/00520­HCC dated 12 April 2018 as attached to the permit.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

ENG sw1

 

 

All stormwater from the proposed development (including but not limited to: roofed areas, ag drains, retaining wall ag drains and impervious surfaces such as driveways and paved areas) must be drained to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure with sufficient receiving capacity prior to first occupation.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure that stormwater from the site will be discharged to a suitable Council approved outlet.

 

 

ENG sw4

 

The existing stormwater connection (6 Broughton Avenue) for the proposed multiple dwellings must be inspected and if necessary upgraded to a DN150 connection (or alternative Council approved design) at the developer's cost, prior to the first occupation.

 

 

The existing redundant stormwater connection (8 Broughton Avenue) must be abandoned and sealed by Council at the developer's cost, prior to the first occupation.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure the site is drained adequately once the titles are consolidated.

 

 

ENG 2a

 

 

Prior to first occupation, vehicular barriers compliant with the Australian Standard AS/NZS1170.1:2002 must be installed to prevent vehicles running off the edge of an access driveway or parking module (parking spaces, aisles and manoeuvring area) where the drop from the edge of the trafficable area to a lower level is 600mm or greater, and wheel stops (kerb) must be installed for drops between 150mm and 600mm. Barriers must not limit the width of the driveway access or parking and turning areas approved under the permit.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Advice:

·     The Council does not consider a slope greater than 1 in 4 to constitute a lower level as described in AS/NZS 2890.1:2004 Section 2.4.5.3. Slopes greater than 1 in 4 will require a vehicular barrier or wheel stop.

 

·     Designers are advised to consult the National Construction Code 2016 to determine if pedestrian handrails or safety barriers compliant with the NCC2016 are also required in the parking module this area may be considered as a path of access to a building.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure the safety of users of the access driveway and parking module and compliance with the standard.

 

 

ENG 3a

 

 

The access driveway and parking module (parking spaces, aisles and manoeuvring area) must be designed and constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004 (including the requirement for vehicle safety barriers where required).

 

Advice:

·     It is advised that designers consider the detailed design of the access and parking module prior to finalising the Finished Floor Level (FFL) of the parking spaces (especially if located within a garage incorporated into the dwelling), as failure to do so may result in difficulty complying with this condition.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure the safety of users of the access and parking module, and compliance with the relevant Australian Standard.

 

 

ENG 3c

 

 

Prior to the first occupation, documentation by a suitably qualified engineer certifying that the access driveway and parking module has been constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004

 

 

 

 

 

 

Advice:

·     Certification may be submitted to Council as part of the Building Act 2016 approval process or via condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement)

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure the safety of users of the access and parking module, and compliance with the relevant Australian Standard.

 

 

ENG 4

 

 

Prior to first occupation:

 

1.    The permeable pavement of the access driveway (within the property) and manoeuvring area approved by this permit must be constructed in accordance with the Manufacturer's recommendations (System B: Partial Filtration or System C: No Filtration) for the site soil subgrade permeability and drained to the Council's stormwater infrastructure; and

 

2.    Documentation must be submitted to Council by a suitably qualified engineer certifying that the permeable pavement has been constructed in accordance with the Manufacturer's recommendations.

 

 

Advice:

·     Certification may be submitted to Council as part of the Building Act 2016 approval process or via condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

 

·     The Permeable pavement must only be constructed within the property. The access within the highway reservation must be constructed in accordance with the Tasmanian Standard Drawings and/or Council City Infrastructure requirements.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure the safety of users of the access driveway and parking module, and that it does not detract from the amenity of users, adjoining occupiers or the environment by preventing dust, mud and sediment transport.

 

 

 

 

 

ENG 1

 

 

The cost of repair of any damage to the Council's infrastructure resulting from the implementation of this permit, must be met by the owners within 30 days of the completion of the development or as otherwise determined by the Council.

 

 

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, pre­existing 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's infrastructure and/or site­related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner’s full cost.

 

 

ENGR 3

 

 

Prior to first occupation, the three (3) proposed driveway crossovers in the Broughton Avenue highway reservation must be designed and constructed in generally accordance with:

 

1.    Rural – TSD­R04­v1 – Rural Roads Typical Driveway Profile and TSD R03­v1 Rural Roads Typical Property Access, and

 

2.    Footpath ­ Urban Roads Footpaths TSD­R11­v1; or

 

3.    To the satisfaction of Council City Infrastructure Division.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Design drawings must be submitted and approved prior to any approval under the Building Act 2016 or the commencement of works on site (whichever occurs first). The design drawing must:

 

1.    Show the cross and long section of the driveway crossover within the highway reservation and onto the property.

 

2.    Detail any services or infrastructure (i.e. light poles, pits, awnings) at or near the proposed driveway crossover.

 

3.    Show a design that will adequately accommodate the expected vehicle loadings. A structural certificate must be included and note that driveway is suitable for heavy vehicle loadings.

 

4.    Show swept path templates in accordance with AS/NZS 2890.1 2004(B85 or B99 depending on use, design template), where required.

 

5.    If the design deviates from the requirements of the TSD, then demonstrate that a B85 vehicle or B99 depending on use (AS/NZS2890.1 2004, section 2.6.2) can access the driveway from the road pavement into the property without scraping the vehicle's underside.

 

6.    Show that vehicular and pedestrian sight lines are met as per AS/NZS2890.1 2004, or that sight distances are to the Council's satisfaction.

 

7.    Be prepared and certified by a suitable qualified person.

 

 

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

 

 

Advice:

·     Once the approved drawings have been approved Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

 

·     Local Government Association (LGAT) Tasmanian Standard Drawings (TSD) can be viewed electronically via the LGAT Website.

 

·     It is advised that designers consider the detailed design of the crossover, access and parking module prior to finalising the Finished Floor Level (FFL) of the parking spaces (especially if located within a garage incorporated into the dwelling), as failure to do so may result in difficulty complying with this condition.

·     Please contact Council City Infrastructure Division to discuss approval of alternate designs. Based on a site specific assessment, Council City Infrastructure Division Road Engineer may permit non­standard batter slopes to the side of the access crossover that do not comply with the TSD.

 

·     You are likely to require a Permit to Open Up and Temporarily Occupy a Highway (for work within the highway reservation). Click here for more information.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure that works will comply with the Council’s standard requirements.

ENG sw3

 

 

The proposed works (including cut and driveway) must be designed to ensure the long­term protection of and access to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure.

 

 

Detailed engineering design must be submitted and approved prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016 or commencement of works (whichever occurs first).

 

 

The detailed design must:

 

1.       Demonstrate how the design will provide adequate access and support to the pipe and impose no excessive loads onto the pipe.

 

2.       Include cross­sections clearly showing the relationship both vertically and horizontally between Council’s stormwater infrastructure and the proposed works.

 

3.       Include a long­section of Council's stormwater main clearly showing proposed cover. If the cover is less than 600mm, engineering details and full calculations to relevant Australian standards (including construction traffic loading) must be submitted to demonstrate the mains can withstand the likely forces and will be adequately protected. All assumptions must be stated.

 

4.       Be certified by a suitably qualified engineer

ENG 1

 

 

The cost of repair of any damage to the Council's infrastructure resulting from the implementation of this permit, must be met by the owners within 30 days of the completion of the development or as otherwise determined by the Council. Any damage must be immediately reported to Council.

 

 

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, pre­existing 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.

Response to Question Without Notice

 

Dark Mofo Inverted Crosses Installation

 

Meeting: City Planning Committee

 

Meeting date: 12 June 2018

 

Raised by: Alderman Denison

 

Question:

 

Could the Director please advise if the appropriate process was followed in relation to erecting the inverted cross, of which is located within the parameters of Council land on the Mawson Place concourse as part of the Dark Mofo festival?

 

 

Response:

 

With respect to the Dark Mofo crosses, the hardstand concourse area located between the Waterside Pavilion and the property occupied by the “Marine Board Building” is available for hire and can be utilised as an adjunct to the Pavilion, or as a stand-alone space (the fees and charges for 2017-2018 lists charges for the “Concourse”).

 

The space has been utilised for a variety of functions in the more recent past, including car-shows, public event launches, an outdoor restaurant and entertainment space and as an additional break-out activity supplementing activities in the Pavilion building.

 

The following summary indicated the key dates and check-list for handling the application by Dark Mofo to use the concourse for “The Crosses” project:

 

30/4/2018      Email approach from Dark Mofo confirming discussions with Council officers regarding the use of the concourse adjacent to the Waterside Pavilion for the installation of a large cross as part of Dark Mofo 2018.


 

30/5/2018      Council officers assess the request entailing the review of documentation provided by Dark Mofo including the engineering design plans for the structure (which had already been signed off by TasPorts for an identical structure on its own land).  Council officers received and addressed traffic and safety and work health and safety management plans around the installation, management and removal of the structure.

 

1/6/2018        Subsequent to review and inspection of the documents provided, officers proceeded to notify Dark Mofo of the approval for hire of the concourse.  Given the range of elements involved with the hire, Council officers prepared a Licence Agreement including all generic terms and conditions, together with additional conditions considered relevant to cover the intended use of the space.   The Licence Agreement has been signed by Dark Mofo and the City of Hobart.

 

The hire cost for the concourse of $800 is attributed to the grant to Dark Mofo.

 

8/6/2018        Temporary Occupancy Permit issued by Holdfast Building Surveyors for the erection of the inverted crosses. 

 

As signatory to this report, I certify that, pursuant to Section 55(1) of the Local Government Act 1993, I hold no interest, as referred to in Section 49 of the Local Government Act 1993, in matters contained in this report.

Response to Question Without Notice

 

Short Term Accommodation Compliance Issues

 

Meeting: City Planning Committee

 

Meeting date: 16 April 2018

 

Raised by: Alderman Cocker

 

Question:

With the apparent discrepancy between the number of planning permits being issued for short term accommodation within the City of Hobart and the significant increase of properties on sharing sites such as Airbnb and Stayz, could the Director please advise if officer investigation could be undertaken to establish compliance with required planning consent?

 

Response:

While an officer investigation could be undertaken there are several challenges with achieving an effective outcome given the following matters. 

 

Firstly, the exact number of properties located within the Hobart municipality listed with AirBnB and Stayz is unknown.  There are a number of reasons for this.  The primary reason is that many properties do not identify the property address and may be listed as being located in Hobart when it is fact not located in the Hobart Municipal Area but in a surrounding suburb

 

Secondly, the head of public policy for Australia and New Zealand AirBnB has cautioned against the use of data collected from the AirBnB website indicating the data is not reliable.  He cites for example, an owner who lists their primary place of residence may advertise the property on the site but block all nights on the listing calendar with the exception of a week or two where the owner is on vacation or temporarily absent.  The data collection does not differentiate between booked nights and blocked nights resulting in the total number of nights booked being considerably over counted.  A property which is only let while the owner or occupier is on vacation or temporarily absent is exempt from the need for a planning permit.

 

An audit of AirBnB listings was undertaken by the Compliance unit in 2015.  It identified 302 properties in Hobart.  Subsequent investigations determined the properties fell in 1 of 4 categories:

 

(a) The address of the property was unable to be identified;

(b) The property had or subsequently obtained  a permit;

(c)  The property ceased operation after the commencement of compliance action; or

(d) The property was exempt from the requirement for approval.

 

All complaints received by Council regarding the use of a property for the use of visitor accommodation is investigated and actioned in accordance with Council’s statutory obligation under the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993.  Complaints provide a useful starting point for investigations including specific details of the property and evidence of use.  The absence of this information results in the use of limited resources in time consuming and often futile searching to identify properties, their address and find collaborative evidence of use. 

 

It is understood that the State Government has entered into agreement with AirBnB to share data from their site.  I therefore propose to write to the relevant State Government department to seek access to this data which may provide a more accurate and effective means of undertaking a compliance audit. 

 

As signatory to this report, I certify that, pursuant to Section 55(1) of the Local Government Act 1993, I hold no interest, as referred to in Section 49 of the Local Government Act 1993, in matters contained in this report.

Factual Content of Deputations

 

Meeting: City Planning Committee

 

Meeting date: 25 June 2018

 

Raised by: Alderman Burnet

 

Question:

 

When lodging development applications or interacting with the website, there is an obligation to provide truthful information.  Could the Director please advise what is the obligation in relation to developers and applicants providing deputations to Council committees?

 

Response:

 

There is no legislative or legal obligation for developers and applicants to provide truthful information when providing deputations to Council committees. 

 

Under the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 an application must ensure all application material is true and correct.  Under section 65G of the Act, the planning authority has the power to cancel a permit if it reasonably believes (a) the permit would not have been granted; or (b) different conditions to the conditions, if any, it imposed on the permit would have been imposed if the applicant had not made a material misstatement of fact, or concealed material facts, in relation to the application for the permit.

 

A deputation from an applicant should primarily seek to clarify the application material and preferably respond to any relevant planning concerns of representors. 

 

As signatory to this report, I certify that, pursuant to Section 55(1) of the Local Government Act 1993, I hold no interest, as referred to in Section 49 of the Local Government Act 1993, in matters contained in this report.

Mandating of Factual Content of Deputations

 

Meeting: City Planning Committee

 

Meeting date: 25 June 2018

 

Raised by: Alderman Burnet

 

Question:

 

If there is no obligation in relation to developers and applicants providing deputations to Council committees, could the Director please advise if the Council can mandate this obligation to be truthful?

 

Response:

 

Council has no power to mandate an obligation for developers and applicants to provide truthful information when providing deputations to Council committees.  The chairperson accepting the deputation could impose a condition under regulation 38(2)(a) that only truthful information be provided however such a requirement would be of little utility as there is no means to (a) determine if the requirement has been complied with and (b) no implications for a developer or applicant in the event the requirement was breached. 

 

As noted previously, the planning authority has the power to cancel a permit if an applicant makes a material misstatement of fact, or concealed material facts, in relation to the application for the permit. 

 

As signatory to this report, I certify that, pursuant to Section 55(1) of the Local Government Act 1993, I hold no interest, as referred to in Section 49 of the Local Government Act 1993, in matters contained in this report.
