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.

 

ENG 13

 

The front fencing/wall (including any gate and screening vegetatoin) at both Lot 1 (28 Church Street) and Lot 2 (32 Church Street) must allow adequate sight distance between user vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians.

 

Adequate sight distance between user vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians may be achieved by one of the following methods:

 

·     Compliance with Australian/NZ Standard, Parking facilities Part 1: Off­ street car parking AS/NZS 2890.1: 2004 Fig 3.3, or

·     The front fencing/wall and screening vegetation to be maintained at less than 1.2m in height for a distance 2.0m either side of the access driveway.

 

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

 

 

 

 

 

Advice:

 

·     A very slight chamfer to the study wall on Unit 2 Lot 2 (32 Church Street) would allow the second car parking space to be able to turn around on site. This would increase the amenity, ease of use and sight distance for exiting vehicles.

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure the safety of vehicles entering and leaving the development and of pedestrians and traffic in the vicinity.

 

 

ENV 2

A SWMP must be submitted prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or the commencement of work, whichever occurs first. The SWMP must be prepared in accordance with the Soil and Water Management on Building and Construction Sites fact sheets (Derwent Estuary Program, 2008), available here.

 

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

 

Advice: Once the SWMP has been approved, the Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

Failure to address condition endorsement requirements prior to submitting for building approval may result in unexpected delays.

 

Reason for condition

 

To avoid the pollution and sedimentation of roads, drains and natural watercourses that could be caused by erosion and runoff from the development.

Prior to first occupation or commencement of use (whichever occurs first), 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.

ENG 2b

 

Prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or the commencement of works on site (whichever occurs first), a certified vehicle barrier design (including site plan with proposed location(s) of installation) prepared by a suitably qualified engineer, compliant with Australian Standard AS/NZS1170.1:2002, must be submitted to Council.

 

 

Advice:

·     If the development's building approval includes the need for a Building Permit from Council, the applicant is advised to submit detailed design of vehicular barrier as part of the Building Application.

·     If the development's building approval is covered under Notifiable Work the applicant is advised to submit detailed design of vehicular barrier as a condition endorsement of the planning permit condition.

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 4

 

The access driveway and parking module (car parking spaces, aisles and manoeuvring area) approved by this permit must be constructed to a sealed standard (spray seal, asphalt, concrete, pavers or equivalent Council approved) and surface drained to the Council's stormwater infrastructure prior to the first occupation or commencement of use (whichever occurs first).

Motions of which notice has been given

 

IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION 16(5) OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT (MEETING PROCEDURES) REGULATIONS 2015

 

12.      Housing with Dignity Reference Group

            File Ref: F18/139999; s13-001-09

Ref:    Special Open CCEC 5.1, 3/12/2018

 

Motion

“That a report be provided to detail the development of a community reference group supported by Council that includes people with lived experience of homelessness including terms of reference.”

Rationale:

 

“It is widely accepted that the face of homelessness in Hobart over the past years has changed to include families and the working poor.

Working with communities, the community sector, and government agencies to address homelessness and housing affordability is important to the Hobart City Council and is reflected in the Council’s Housing and Homelessness Strategy 2016-2019. This Strategy is due for review and renewal early next year and needs to be informed by a variety of stakeholders, especially those with lived experience of homelessness.

A Homelessness reference group that includes people with lived experience of homelessness will serve as a crucial reference point for Council in its efforts to address homelessness and housing affordability in Hobart. The reference group will be key in providing input and expertise into the drafting of the new Housing and Homelessness Strategy, providing a voice from those with personal experience of homelessness, and opening up opportunities for the Council to have deeper consultation with those experiencing homelessness and develop appropriate initiatives.  This reference group will also develop a better understanding of priorities for homeless people to advocate and lobby the State Government. It will give people who until now feel marginalised and without a voice a belief that they will be able to have a voice and moreover be listened to.  

The reference group will have scope to invite experts in for subcommittee meetings of interest for the sharing of relevant information and for policy direction.”

 

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 the Council’s Housing and Homeless Strategy 2016-2019.”
