A pre works CCTV video of the existing Council stormwater main within the subject site (including right of way) must be undertaken and submitted to the Council prior to the commencement of work (including demolition).

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure that any of the Council infrastructure and/or site­related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner’s full cost.

 

ENG sw2.2

 

Recorded CCTV inspections and associated reports of the new public stormwater infrastructure and any other public stormwater within 2m of the works must be undertaken and submitted to the Council:

 

1.     Prior to commencement of the maintenance period; and

 

2.     Within 30 days of completion of works.

 

The CCTV inspection must be taken no more than one month prior to commencement of the maintenance period. A maintenance period of 12 months will apply to the new pipes. The Council will perform a final inspection at the end of the maintenance period. Should any rectification works be required, these must be done at the owner's cost within a time frame specified by the Council, and an additional 12 month maintenance period may be applied.

 

The post construction CCTV 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 pre­construction CCTV video of the Council’s infrastructure, then any damage to the Council's infrastructure identified in the post construction CCTV will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

 

Advice: The CCTVs may be combined by delaying commencement of the maintenance period.

 

A maintenance bond of 5% of the contract value of the works will be required by the Council. Upon the expiry of the maintenance period, please contact the Council’s Project and Development Inspector on telephone 6238 2967 to arrange the final inspection prior to the release of the maintenance bond.

The proposed works (including footings, carpark, ramps, overhangs) within two metres of the Council's stormwater infrastructure, must be designed to ensure the long term protection of and access to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure.

 

A 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 but excluding demolition).

 

The detailed design must:

 

1.    Demonstrate how the design will maintain the overland flow path, provide adequate access to the main, impose no additional loads onto the main and that the structure will be fully independent of the main and its trenching. Adequate access is defined for this project as a minimum 2.8m vertical clearance within a 3m wide corridor, with no columns or footings within one metre of the outside of the pipe. Reduction in this access requirement is possible for the removable ramp, and wall at the boundary with adequate structural bridging.

 

2.    Include details of how the ramp is removed and reinstated, and sufficient protection for the new main within the right of way to allow excavation to gain full access into the site.

 

 

3.    Include cross­sections clearly showing the relationship both vertically and horizontally between Council’s stormwater infrastructure and the proposed works (including footings), and stating the minimum setbacks from the works to the nearest external surface of the main.

 

4.    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.

 

5.    Be certified by a suitably qualified engineer.

 

Prior to first occupation / the issue of any Completion Certificate under the Building Act 2016 / the commencement of the maintenance period (whichever occurs first), confirmation from a suitably qualified engineer must be provided to the Council that the installation of the works within two metres of the Council’s stormwater is in accordance with the approved drawings and complies with this condition. Should any remediation works be required, these must be carried out at the developer’s cost.

 

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

 

Advice: Once the detailed 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 the protection of the Council’s hydraulic infrastructure.

 

 

ENG sw5

 

The development (including hardstand) must be drained to the Council's stormwater infrastructure with sufficient receiving capacity, in a safe and legal manner through to Collins Street. The upgraded public stormwater system must be constructed prior to issue of any Completion Certificate under the Building Act 2016.

 

Engineering design drawings must be submitted and approved, prior to commencement of work or the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016 (whichever occurs first but excluding demolition). The engineering design drawings must:

 

1.    Be certified by a qualified and experienced engineer.

 

2.    Show in both plan and long­section the proposed stormwater mains, including but not limited to, connections, flows, velocities, hydraulic grade lines, clearances, cover, gradients, sizing, material, pipe class, adequate working platforms around manholes, easements, obstacles (such as other services or structures) and inspection openings.

 

3.    Include adequate protection works where minimum cover cannot be achieved.

 

4.    Include the associated calculations and catchment area plans. The stormwater system (including defined non­blocked overland flow paths) must cater for all 1% AEP flows as at 2100 (i.e. including climate change loading) from a fully developed catchment. The main itself must be sized to accommodate at least the 5% AEP flows from a fully­developed catchment.

 

5.    Identify all existing third­party connections to the mains to be upgraded and reconnected at the owner's cost.

 

6.    Clearly distinguish between public and private infrastructure.

 

7.    Be substantially in accordance with the LGAT Standard Drawings and Tasmanian Subdivision Guidelines.

 

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

 

 

Advice: Once the engineering design drawings have 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.

 

Please note that once the condition endorsement has been issued you will need to contact Council’s City Infrastructure Division to obtain a Permit to Construct Public Infrastructure. A maintenance period of 12 months and 5% maintenance bond will apply.

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure Council’s hydraulic infrastructure meets acceptable standards.

INTERPRETATION

 

The Applicant is strongly encouraged (in collaboration with the City of Hobart) to incorporate appropriate publicly accessible interpretation into the development which reflects the history of the site and its surrounds.

 

URBAN DESIGN ADVISORY PANEL

 

You are strongly encouraged to implement the following considerations arising from the Urban Design Advisory Panel meeting of 9 February 2018:

 

1.    The relationship with the heritage building to the south would be improved if rooms 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 were omitted, to reduce the height of the vertical element closest to the heritage building, and further break up its massing.

 

2.    A landscaping plan (hard and soft) should be prepared (by a suitably qualified professional) and implemented, including a large tree to assist in breaking the massing of the proposed building along the (southern) boundary with the heritage site.

 

3.    Appropriate lighting, green walls and outdoor heating should be installed to help activate the ground level communal space on the south west side of the building, as well as locating seats and tables closer to the outer edges of the building for sitting/using in morning/afternoon sun to make this space more inviting for patronage.

COMMITTEE RESOLUTION:

That:   Pursuant to section 39(10) of the Historic Cultural Heritage Act 1995 the Hobart City Council must refuse the application for partial demolition, alterations, extension and fencing at 5 St Georges Terrace Battery Point, because pursuant to section 39(6)(c) of that Act the Tasmanian Heritage Council has given notice (THC Application 5507, dated 21 February 2018) that the discretionary permit must be refused. The Tasmanian Heritage Council refused the application for the following reason:

 

 

1.    The development proposal is considered to be incompatible with the place’s historic cultural heritage significance due to the extent of the proposed demolition work and the unsympathetic bulk, scale and form of the proposed additions.

 

 

That:   Pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council refuse the application for partial demolition, alterations, extension and fencing at 5 St Georges Terrace Battery Point for partial demolition, alterations, extension and fencing for the following reasons:

 

 

1.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A1 or the performance criterion P1 with respect to clause E13.7.1 Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed demolition would result in the loss of significant fabric and forms from the early 1880s that contribute to the historic cultural heritage significance of the place.

 

 

2.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A1 or the performance criterion P1 with respect to clause E13.7.2 Buildings and Works other than Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed incompatible design, including height, scale, bulk, form and fenestration patterns, will result in the loss of historic cultural heritage significance of the place.

 

 

3.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A2 or the performance criterion P2 with respect to clause E13.7.2 Buildings and Works other than Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed rear extension is not subservient and complementary to the place because of its scale and bulk, built form and fenestration patterns.

 

4.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A4 or the performance criterion P4 with respect to clause E13.7.2 Buildings and Works other than Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed rear extension is not sympathetic to the main house and detracts from the historic cultural heritage significance of the place.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

5.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A1 or the performance criterion P1 with respect to clause E13.8.1 Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed demolition would result in the loss of early 1880s buildings and works that contribute to the historic cultural heritage significance of the Battery Point Heritage Precinct.

 

 

6.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A1 or the performance criterion P1 with respect to clause E13.8.2 Buildings and Works other than Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the design and siting of the proposed buildings and works is unsympathetic and would result in detriment to the historic cultural heritage significance of the Battery Point 1 Heritage Precinct.

 

 

7.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A3 or the performance criterion P3 with respect to clause E13.8.2 Buildings and Works other than Demolition of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed extension is unsympathetic and would detract from the historic cultural heritage significance of the Battery Point Heritage Precinct.

 

 

8.    The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution A3 or the performance criterion P3 with respect to clause E13.8.4 Buildings and Works in Heritage Precinct BP1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the height of the proposed development would detract from the pattern of development that is characteristic of the cultural heritage significance of the Battery Point 1 Heritage Precinct in the vicinity of the site.
