1. Include details for the handling of waste (i.e. placement of bins on collection day) within Council's highway reservation. 2. Include details of the quantity and type/size of bins.
All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved waste management plan.
Advice:
Council notes that a development of this size would require an allocation in excess of twenty four (24x) bins, given the limited available street frontage alternate provisions must be arranged with the Council.
Should you have any queries in relation to formulating a solid waste management plan Council staff can assist with the development of a waste management plan outlining Council's requirements. Please contact the Council’s Customer Liaison Officer, on Phone 6278 0273.
Once the waste management plan has been approved Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).
Where building approval is also required, it is recommended that documentation for condition endorsement be submitted well before submitting documentation for building approval. Failure to address condition endorsement requirements prior to submitting for building approval may result in unexpected delays.
Reason for condition
To ensure that solid waste management from the site meets the Council’s requirements and standards.

ENG 11
Prior to the first occupation, the proposed crossover within the Lefroy Street highway reservation must be designed and constructed in general accordance with:
1. LGAT Standard Drawing Urban TSDR09v1 – Urban Roads Driveways and TSD R14v1 Type KC vehicular crossing; and 2. LGAT Standard Drawing Footpath Urban Roads Footpaths TSDR11 v1.
Advice:
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 note that your proposal does not include adjustment of footpath levels. Any adjustment to footpath levels necessary to suit the design of proposed floor, parking module or driveway levels will require separate agreement from Council's Road Services Engineer and may require further planning approvals. It is advised to place a note to this affect on construction drawings for the site and/or other relevant engineering drawings to ensure that contractors are made aware of this requirement.
Please contact Council City Amenity Division to discuss approval of alternate designs. Based on a site specific assessment, Council City Amenity Division’s Road Engineer may permit extending nonapproved concrete slab crossover, and where nonstandard kerb and channel exists a concrete plinth to Council standards may be permitted for construction at the gutter.
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
In the interests of vehicle user safety and the amenity of the development.
ENG 12

Any damage to council infrastructure resulting from the implementation of this permit, must, at the discretion of the Council:
1. Be met by the owner by way of reimbursement (cost of repair and reinstatement to be paid by the owner to the Council); or 2. Be repaired and reinstated by the owner to the satisfaction of 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.
ENG s2
The bicycle parking spaces onsite must be integrated into the car park design and must be in a location that is accessible by all cyclists.
A bicycle parking design must be submitted and approved, prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or the commencement of works on site (whichever occurs first).
The bicycle parking design must:
1. Be prepared and certified by a suitably qualified person; 2. Be in accordance with the Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.3:2015; 3. Where the design deviates from AS/NZS2890.3:2015 a suitably qualified engineer must demonstrate that the design will provide a safe and efficient access, and enable safe, easy and efficient use; and 4. Show dimensions and other details as Council deem necessary to satisfy the above requirement.
All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved bicycle parking design.
Advice:
Council notes the significant car parking shortfall onsite and would expect the bicycle parking numbers (facility) to exceed the requirements of the Planning Scheme.
Once the design has been approved, the Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement)
Where building approval is also required, it is recommended that documentation for condition endorsement be submitted well before submitting documentation for building approval. Failure to address condition endorsement requirements prior to submitting for building approval may result in unexpected delays.
Reason for condition
To ensure safe and efficient parking adequate to provide for the use.
ENV 2

Response to Question Without Notice
Commercial Developments - Carbon Neutral Requirement - Planning Scheme Amendments
Meeting: City Planning Committee
|
Meeting date: 15 June 2020
|
Raised by: Councillor Harvey |
Question:
Is it possible and desirable to introduce amendments to the planning scheme that would require all commercial developments to meet a carbon neutral requirement?
Response:
A carbon neutral building is typically where the yearly operational energy consumption of the building is equal to zero through a process of reduce, re-use, re-cycle and offset. This takes into consideration building incorporated (or base building) energy consumption and is consistent with the Australian Sustainable Built Environment Council (ASBEC) recommendation of the definition of a “zero carbon building”.
The National Carbon Offset Standard for Buildings (Commonwealth of Australia 2017) is a voluntary standard to manage greenhouse gas emissions and to achieve carbon neutrality. It provides best-practice guidance on how to measure, reduce, offset, report and audit emissions that occur as a result of the operations of a building. The Building Standard is available here: https://apo.org.au/sites/default/files/resource-files/2017-09/apo-nid113756.pdf
To achieve and maintain a valid and credible carbon neutral claim against the Building Standard, the responsible entity and/or approved certifier must:
· Measure: Prepare a carbon account (Section 2.3).
· Reduce: Reduce emissions where possible (Section 2.4).
· Offset: Cancel eligible offset units to compensate for remaining emissions (Section 2.5).
· Report: Prepare a public report (Section 2.6).
· Audit: Arrange independent audit or quality assurance of the carbon account and offsets cancelled (Section 2.7).
To implement a Building Standard such as this through a planning scheme would not be feasible due its complexity and the need for on-going measuring, reporting and auditing. Elements of the Building Standard are also considered to be beyond the scope of what a planning scheme may provide for as set out in Section 11 of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993.
It should also be noted that commercial building energy efficiency is regulated through the National Construction Code and Section 7 of the Building Act 2016 states that that Act prevails over a planning instrument that relates to the design of any building or building work.
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.

Cable Car - Budget Provision
Meeting: City Planning Committee
|
Meeting date: 29 June 2020
|
Raised by: Councillor Dutta |
Question:
Can the Director advise what budget has been allocated for independent consultants to assist the City Council to assess the cable car development application in the 2019/20 budget and the 2020/21 budget. Is this partly or fully covered by the development application fees to be paid by the applicant, and if not how much will be paid by the Council?
Response:
We do not have a specific budget allocation for independent consultants to assist the Council in undertaking the assessment of the cable car development. We had a total allocation of $230K for both legal and planning consultants for the 2019/20 financial year and a current allocation of $210K for the 2020/21 financial year to meet all of the consultancy costs associated with the processing of all planning applications. It is not possible to determine at this stage what proportion of this allocation would be utilised for the assessment of the cable car planning application. However, it is anticipated that the application fee would only partly cover these costs.
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.

Multiple Dwellings - Completion Rates
Meeting: City Planning Committee
|
Meeting date: 29 June 2020
|
Raised by: Alderman Behrakis |
Question:
Can the Director advise that for multiple dwelling applications, four and above, do we have any statistics for the applications that have been approved verses the ones that have actually been completed and built. Do we have any understanding on how many get approved and not built, and how many may get approved and are actually built. Do we have any statistics on these for the past two years?
Response:
For the period 1 June 2018 to 30 June 2020, The City of Hobart received 49 Planning Applications for multiple dwellings (four or more residential dwellings). Of these applications, thirty were approved, two refused, six withdrawn and eleven are currently under assessment.
Of the thirty planning approvals issued, six have received building approval.
Of these six approvals, five have lodged notification that works have commenced, one of these has completed the works.
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.

Wood Smoke - Pollution
Meeting: City Planning Committee
|
Meeting date: 20 July 2020
|
Raised by: Deputy Lord Mayor Burnet |
Question:
Can the Director advise if there have been any breaches in relation to wood smoke from fires and have there been any reports regarding wood smoke?
Response:
19 complaints were received from members of the public in relation to wood smoke impacts from wood heaters during the period March to July 2020.
This is an increase from the same period last year (11), which may be attributable to more people being at home during the day using wood heating for warmth due to Covid-19 pandemic restrictions.
Council environmental health officers apply the Environmental Management and Pollution Control (Smoke) Regulations 2019 to the assessment of emissions from wood heaters, the offence being - allowing the emission of smoke that is visible for a continuous period of 10 minutes or more, and at a distance of 10m or more from the building where the smoke is emitted.
Whilst the Regulations provide a framework for assessment, in order to take enforcement action officers must witness the emission, and be confident that the emission is ongoing and not part of the fire lighting process which always generates a smoke plume until the fire is established. A well maintained and operated wood heater should not continue to emit prohibited volumes of smoke.
Analysis of the complaints indicates that no breaches of the Regulations have been observed by officers during the current period. Officers were able to observe 4 wood heaters in operation and at the time of observation, none were deemed in breach of the assessment criteria.
As a first step in the investigation process, officers send a letter advising occupiers of the complaint and providing information on how to effectively operate a wood heater. Many complaints can be closed without further action beyond the distribution of this letter and educational materials, as heater operators take action to improve the use of their heater once they are made aware there is a concern.
A number of complaints remain ongoing in the system due to the difficulties in obtaining evidence. Where complaints continue to be made after attempts to educate, officers make every attempt to continue to witness the emissions.
A proactive approach is also taken by officers. If breaches are observed during the course of routine other field duties, officers will either knock on the door or letterbox to notify occupants that prohibited smoke emissions were observed emanating from their chimney at the time, and provide education materials directly. This approach has been well received by home owners, the majority of whom continue to be unaware of their smoke emissions and keen to act to address them.
The Regulations do provide for the issue of an infringement notice of 2 penalty units should prohibited smoke emissions be observed. Occupants are always given the opportunity to address the observed concerns rather than infringed at the outset. No infringements have been issued to date by officers under the current Regulations.
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.
