The minutes of the Open Portion of the City Planning Committee meeting held on Monday, 27 August 2018, are submitted for confirming as an accurate record.
|
Ref: Part 2, Regulation 8(6) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015.
|
That the Committee resolve to deal with any supplementary items not appearing on the agenda, as reported by the General Manager.
|
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.
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?
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.

• It is advised that documentation for condition endorsement is lodged well before a Building Permit is required, as failure to address design requirements until Building Application stage may result in unexpected delays.
Reason for condition
To ensure that stormwater from the site will be discharged to a suitable Council approved outlet.
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.

If detailed design to satisfy this condition is submitted via the planning condition endorsement process there may be fees associated with the assessment, and once approved the applicant will still need to obtain a plumbing permit for the works.
• It is advised that documentation for condition endorsement is lodged well before a Building Permit is required, as failure to address design requirements until Building Application stage may result in unexpected delays.
Reason for condition
To ensure that stormwater from the site will be discharged to a suitable Council approved outlet.
ENV 1
Sediment and erosion control measures sufficient to prevent sediment from leaving the site must be installed prior to any disturbance of the site. Sediment controls must be maintained until all areas of disturbance have been stabilized or revegetated.

8. Reports
8.1 Smoke-Free Areas Awareness and Compliance
Memorandum of the Manager Environmental Health, the Manager Development Compliance and the Director City Planning of 4 September 2018.
Delegation: Committee
|
Item No. 8.1 |
Agenda (Open Portion) City Planning Committee Meeting |
Page 532 |

10/9/2018 |
|
Memorandum: City Planning Committee
Smoke-Free Areas Awareness and Compliance
The following information is provided as an update on the awareness and compliance of smoke free areas within the City of Hobart.
Background
Smoke-free areas have been declared in and around the Hobart central business district since 2012. Smoke-free laws aim to protect the health of non-smokers, de-normalise smoking, and support smokers by making it easier to quit. New laws in 2017 also declared the use of e-cigarettes and herbal cigarettes as a form of smoking.
The City of Hobart awareness and compliance program is designed to enable proactive risk minimisation within available resources. This report describes how the City Planning Division is using a collaborative approach to achieve the expectations of the Public Health Act 1997.
Locations
Council declared areas, pedestrian and bus malls and occupation licence areas are the focus of the program. These areas are Mathers Lane and Collins Court, Salamanca Square, Kennedy Lane and Woobys Lane, Elizabeth Mall, Soundys Lane and Wellington Court, Franklin Square Bus Mall and Elizabeth Street Bus Mall, and council owned car parks.
Occupation licences are issued to all businesses with outdoor dining on council land and smoking is not permitted in these areas at any time. Council also has an interest in areas where significant numbers of children may be exposed to second hand smoke, such as the North Hobart Skate Park.
Awareness Program
Regular presence
Since January 2018, monthly awareness sessions have been held in declared areas. Environmental Health Officers, nominated Officers under the Act, set up smoke-free area promotional materials and spend time in the areas speaking to smokers and answering any questions raised by the public. The officers generally provide advice about the locations of all declared areas, undeclared areas, penalties for smoking, and handing out materials such as no smoking stickers and Quit Tasmania brochures. Where possible, Officers from the Department of Health’s Tobacco Control Unit also attend these sessions to provide support to the program.
Complaint response
When a complaint is received from a member of the public, the location is reviewed at the next available opportunity in order to assess signage, litter volumes, accessibility of the nearest cigarette butt bins, and to undertake follow up of individuals where possible. Certain locations become problematic at times, and regular offenders are sometime identifiable by their work uniforms and follow up can be undertaken with specific companies, departments or businesses. Through their notifications, the public help to guide the planning for the program to ensure problematic areas are prioritised.
Security guards employed to monitor areas which also happen to be smoke-free provide excellent support to the program by educating and advising people using these areas. Tasmania Police are nominated Officers under the Act and have provided Council with assistance at times with respect to ongoing breaches in certain areas. Tasmania Police advise that they rarely issue infringement to smokers as situations seldom get to that stage with any individual. The due process for enforcement includes the requirement for an officer to substantiate a breach and issue a warning, prior to substantiating a second breach at which time an infringement may be issued. Infringements cannot be issued to minors.
Where concerns are raised with smoking in occupation licence areas, the City Inspector undertakes follow up with specific business proprietors to address issues and to reinforce the requirements of the licence.
Communications
Council Officers liaise with the Department of Health Tobacco Control Unit regularly to discuss compliance matters and complete projects such as a recent review of nightclub smoking areas. Quit Tasmania is also aware of the program and has provided quit smoking materials for officers to hand out as opportunities arise. It is hoped in future that staff of Quit Tasmania may be in a position to have a presence at future awareness sessions.
Facebook and Twitter are used to promote and support activities on awareness days. City news is used for promotional articles, and Council’s website contains specific advice about Council’s smoke-free areas and more general advice about other areas declared smoke-free by the State Government, such as playgrounds, public swimming pools and sports venues.
Holders of occupation licences are reminded annually about their responsibilities to ensure these areas remain smoke-free.

9. Motions of which Notice has been Given
Alderman Helen Burnet
Motion:
“In an effort to reduce the impacts from tobacco smoking, on both human health and the environment from cigarette butt litter, a report be prepared to:
1) Identify more areas of Hobart suitable to become smoke-free, such as Franklin Square, the city’s beaches and CBD streets;
2) Determine ways to measure whether already designated non-smoking areas actually are smoke-free (these include occupation licensed drinking and dining areas, playgrounds, 3 metres from doorways and designated smoke-free streets);
3) Work with the state government to improve effectiveness of audit, enforcement and policy for harm minimisation from tobacco smoking.”
Rationale:
“Smoking rates in Tasmania are higher than any other state, are not decreasing as they are in all other states and territories. Smoking-related disease causes many hospitalisations and over 500 deaths in Tasmania each year. (Australian Institute of Health and Welfare report 2018).
In Australia, cigarette butts are consistently the most littered item identified in national clean-up campaigns. Around seven billion butts become litter in Australia every year. Filters are harmful to the environment, as they contain plastic and are not bio-degradable.” (Barnsley K, Walters H, The Conversation, October 2017).
Both human and environmental impacts of smoking and cigarette butt litter have serious implications for our city. Not only are there reports of poor health outcomes, but there is also a negative effect on amenity of our city streets, parks, storm water and waterways from cigarette butts remaining in the environment, leaching toxins.
In 2010, the City of Hobart introduced various smoke-free areas and as a condition of outdoor dining occupation licenses. Whilst some areas are really effective and generally remain smoke-free, anecdotally there are still many breaches of smoking in other parts of the city.
This motion calls for a further expansion in smoke-free areas, to de-normalise smoking in Hobart, with the ultimate aim of reducing harm to human and environmental health.”
The General Manager reports:
“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as it relates to public health and the environment.”
