No items were transferred.

 

 

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.

 

BRISCOE

 

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.

1.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution, the performance criterion or the objective of clause 15.4.1 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed building height: is not compatible with the scale of nearby buildings; does not offer an appropriate transition in height between adjoining buildings; does not contribute positively to the streetscape; and will result in unreasonable impact on residential amenity of land in the Inner Residential Zone.

 

 

2.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution, the performance criterion or the objective of clause 15.4.1 A2 and P2 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed building height within 10m of the Inner Residential Zone is not compatible with the building height of existing buildings on adjoining lots in the Inner Residential Zone; and will result in unreasonable impact on residential amenity of land in the Inner Residential Zone.

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 2020/00526­HCC dated 1 May 2020 as attached to the permit.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

 

PLN 15a

 

 

A demolition waste management plan must be implemented throughout demolition. The demolition waste management plan must include provisions for the handling, transport and disposal of demolition material, including any contaminated waste and recycling opportunities, to satisfy the above requirement.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Advice:

 

 

It is recommended that the developer liaise with the Council’s Cleansing and Solid Waste Unit regarding reducing, reusing and recycling materials associated with demolition on the site to minimise solid waste being directed to landfill. Further information can also be found on the Council’s website.

 

Reason for condition

 

 

To ensure that solid waste management from the site meets the Council’s requirements and standards

 

 

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

 

 

Advice:

 

Under section 23 of the Urban Drainage Act 2013 it is an offence for a property owner to direct stormwater onto a neighbouring property.

 

 

Reason for condition

 

 

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

 

 

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.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

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

 

 

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 13

 

 

The bin storage(s) and wall(s) at Feltham Street front boundary must have a maximum height of 1.2m above the vehicle access pavement level (at the property boundary) for a minimum distance of 2m either side of the access to allow adequate sight distance between user vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians.

BEHRAKIS

That the recommendation contained in the report of the Development Appraisal Planner and the Senior Statutory Planner of 11 August 2020, be adopted as amended by the inclusion of an additional condition ENG s1 and the following advice clause:

 

“ENG s1

Prior to the issuing of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or commencement of works (whichever occurs first), an inundation risk management plan and associated calculations must be prepared by a suitably qualified engineer in accordance with the best practice guidelines.  The inundation risk management plan must be submitted to the Council and approved.  The plan must include the following:

1.   The risk of inundation of the site, proposed buildings and building floor levels (based on a predicted 1% annual exceedance probability flood event for the year 2100 including consideration of climate change (30% increase in rainfall intensity)). Clearly state the vertical clearance between the proposed finished floor level of any habitable rooms (and access to these) and the flood level. All floor levels must be 300mm above the resultant 1% AEP at 2100 (including climate change).

2.   The impact of the proposed development upon the risk of inundation of other land, buildings and infrastructure (including frequency, extent, depth and velocity).

3.   Any inundation control measures or design features proposed to be employed to reduce the risk, and the resultant level of risk. 

4.   How any proposed infrastructure and techniques will ensure the net discharge of stormwater and the rate of stormwater discharge does not exceed pre-development levels. 

5.   Evidence from a suitably qualified person that proposed building or works will be designed and constructed to resist hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces as a result of inundation.

 

 

 



6.   That all structures within the flood zone will be inspected by a registered surveyor. Certification from a registered surveyor that the finished floor levels and the top of any flood wall are at or above the relevant minimum levels shown on the approved building plans must be provided prior to issue of any occupancy/completion certificate (whichever occurs first).


Reason for condition

To ensure that the development does not unreasonably increase the risk from inland flooding, is appropriately managed and takes into account the use of the buildings.

ADVICE

The applicant is encouraged to use their best endeavours while carrying out the approved development, to avoid direct damage to the root system of the trees at the rear of 36 Strahan Street.”

Prior to the issuing of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or commencement of works (whichever occurs first), an inundation risk management plan and associated calculations must be prepared by a suitably qualified engineer in accordance with the best practice guidelines.  The inundation risk management plan must be submitted to the Council and approved.  The plan must include the following:

1.     The risk of inundation of the site, proposed buildings and building floor levels (based on a predicted 1% annual exceedance probability flood event for the year 2100 including consideration of climate change (30% increase in rainfall intensity)). Clearly state the vertical clearance between the proposed finished floor level of any habitable rooms (and access to these) and the flood level. All floor levels must be 300mm above the resultant 1% AEP at 2100 (including climate change).

2.     The impact of the proposed development upon the risk of inundation of other land, buildings and infrastructure (including frequency, extent, depth and velocity).

3.     Any inundation control measures or design features proposed to be employed to reduce the risk, and the resultant level of risk. 

4.     How any proposed infrastructure and techniques will ensure the net discharge of stormwater and the rate of stormwater discharge does not exceed pre-development levels. 

5.     Evidence from a suitably qualified person that proposed building or works will be designed and constructed to resist hydrostatic and hydrodynamic forces as a result of inundation.

6.     That all structures within the flood zone will be inspected by a registered surveyor. Certification from a registered surveyor that the finished floor levels and the top of any flood wall are at or above the relevant minimum levels shown on the approved building plans must be provided prior to issue of any occupancy/completion certificate (whichever occurs first).


Reason for condition

To ensure that the development does not unreasonably increase the risk from inland flooding, is appropriately managed and takes into account the use of the buildings.
