COMMITTEE RESOLUTION:

 

That pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council refuse the application for Demolition, New Building for Hospital Services, Business and Professional Services, and General Retail and Hire, Signage, and Associated Infrastructure Works at 46, 48-50, and 52 New Town Road, and 7A Clare Street, New Town for the following reasons:

 

1.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.3.1 P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed hours of operation of the 24 hour hospital component of the development will have an unreasonable impact upon the residential amenity through commercial vehicle movements, noise or other emissions that are unreasonable in their timing, duration or extent.

 

2.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.3.1 P4 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the potential timing of commercial vehicle movements could result in unreasonable adverse impact upon residential amenity.

 

3.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.4.1 P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed building is not consistent with the built form of the surrounding buildings, offers little or no transition between the site and its surrounds, does not contribute positively to the streetscape and will have an unreasonable impact on residential amenity of land in the Inner Residential Zone.

 

4.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.4.1 P2 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the proposed building is not compatible with the built form of the surrounding buildings.

 

5.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.4.2 P2 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because it does not prevent unreasonable adverse impacts on residential amenity by overshadowing, overlooking, and visual impact from adjoining Inner Residential Zoned Properties.

 

 

6.      The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 15.4.5 P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the extent, location and proposed species for the landscaping of the site is not sufficient to enhance the appearance of the development, or to avoid unreasonable adverse impact on the visual amenity of adjoining land in the Inner Residential Zone.

That pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council approve the application for demolition and two multiple dwellings at 636 and 636 A + B Sandy Bay Road for the reasons outlined in the officer’s report attached to item 7.1.3 of the Open City Planning Committee agenda of 25 November 2019 and a permit containing the following conditions be issued:

 

GEN

 

The use and/or development must be substantially in accordance with the documents and drawings that comprise PLN­19­359 ­ 636 AND 636A SANDY BAY ROAD SANDY BAY TAS 7005 ­ Final Planning Documents, except where modified below.

 

 

 

 

Reason for condition

 

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

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 2019/00881­HCC dated 23/08/2019 as attached to the permit.

 

Reason for condition

 

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

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).

 

Reason for condition

 

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

 

ENG sw2.1

 

A pre­construction CCTV recording of the Council’s stormwater main within/adjacent to the proposed development, along with photos of any drainage structures to be connected to or modified, must be submitted to Council prior to the commencement of work. 

 

The post­construction CCTV recording and photos will be relied upon to establish the extent of any damage caused to Council’s stormwater infrastructure during construction. If the owner/developer fails to provide Council with pre­construction CCTV recording then any damage to Council’s infrastructure identified in the post­construction CCTV recording will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

 

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

 

A post­construction CCTV recording of the Council’s stormwater main within/adjacent to the proposed development, along with photos of any existing drainage structures connected to or modified as part of the development, must be submitted to Council upon completion of work.

 

The post­construction CCTV recording and photos will be relied upon to establish the extent of any damage caused to Council’s stormwater infrastructure during construction. If the owner/developer fails to provide Council with pre­construction CCTV then any damage to Council’s infrastructure identified in the post­construction CCTV will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

 

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 sw3

 

The proposed foundations and overhangs must be designed to ensure the protection and access to the Council’s stormwater main.

A detailed design must be submitted and approved prior to construction. The detailed design must:

 

1.       Demonstrate how the design will ensure the protection to the Council’s stormwater main.

 

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

 

 

 

Advice:

 

Detailed design must include indicative plans and cross­sections, clearly indicating the relationship both vertically and horizontally between Council’s stormwater infrastructure and the proposed works (including footings and overhangs). These drawings must demonstrate that no loading will be imposed on Council’s infrastructure, that the Council stormwater infrastructure will be outside the zone of influence of the footings, and that the structure will be fully independent of the main and its trenching.

 

The applicant is required to submit detailed design documentation to satisfy this condition via the Council's planning condition endorsement process (noting there is a fee associated with condition endorsement approval of engineering drawings [see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement and for fees and charges]). This is a separate process to any building approval under the Building Act 2016.

Failure to address condition 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 sw4

 

The new stormwater connection must be constructed and existing abandoned connections sealed by the Council at the owner’s expense, prior to the first occupation.

 

Detailed engineering drawings must be submitted and approved, prior to commencement of work. The detailed engineering drawings must include:

 

1.     the location of the proposed connection; and

2.     the size of the connection appropriate to satisfy the needs of the development.

 

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

approved detailed engineering drawings.

 

 

 

 

Advice:

 

Under Urban drainage act 2013 ­ Part 4 Connections, property owners are only allowed to have a single connection point to a public stormwater system.

 

The applicant is advised to submit detailed design drawings via a Council City Amenity Division application for a new stormwater connection. 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 submit an application for a new stormwater connection with Council City Amenity Division.

 

Where building / plumbing approval is also required, it is recommended that documentation to satisfy this condition is submitted well before submitting documentation for building/plumbing approval. Failure to address planning

condition requirements prior to submitting for building/plumbing approval may result in unexpected delays.

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure the site is drained adequately.

ENG sw7

 

Stormwater detention for stormwater discharges from the development must be installed prior to commencement of use.

 

A stormwater management report and design must be submitted and approved, prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016 or construction. The stormwater management report and design must:

 

1.     Be prepared by a suitably qualified engineer

2.     Provide details and supporting calculations of the detention tank sized such that there is no increase in flows from the developed site up to 5% AEP storm events and no worsening of existing flooding. All assumptions must be clearly stated.

3.     Show layout, of the inlet and outlet including long­section.

4.     Details of the overflow mechanism.

5.     Clarification of the emptying times and outlet size.

6.     Include supporting maintenance plan

7.     Include a Stormwater Management Summary Plan that outlines the

obligations for future property owners to stormwater management, including a maintenance plan which outlines the operational and maintenance measures to check and ensure the ongoing effective operation of all systems, such as: inspection frequency; cleanout procedures; descriptions and diagrams of how the installed systems operate; details of the life of assets and replacement requirements.

 

All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved stormwater management report and design.

 

Advice: Once the stormwater management report and design 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 avoid the possible pollution of drainage systems and natural watercourses, and to comply with relevant State legislation.

 

ENG tr1

 

Traffic management within the access driveway must be installed prior to the commencement of the use.

 

Traffic management design drawing(s) (including signage and line marking), must be submitted and approved, prior to commencement of the use. The design drawing(s) must include (but not be limited to):

 

1.     Be prepared by a suitably qualified person.

2.     Signs each side of the driveway entry/exit (adjacent to, and 2m above the pedestrian path in Sandy Bay Road) with the text `caution ­ vehicles exiting' clearly displayed.

3.     A road hump located at the car park exit to ensure low vehicle speeds when crossing the pedestrian path and exiting onto Sandy Bay Road;

 

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

 

Advice:

·        Once the traffic management design drawings have 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

 

In the interests of user safety and the amenity of the occupiers of the development.

 

ENG 3a

 

The access driveway and parking module must be designed and constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004 (including the requirement for vehicle safety barriers where required), or a Council approved alternate design certified by a suitably qualified engineer to provide a safe and efficient access, and enable safe, easy and efficient use.

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure the safety of users of the access and parking module, and compliance with the relevant Australian Standard.

 

ENG 3b

 

The access driveway and parking module design must be submitted and approved, prior to the issuing of any approval under the Building Act 2016.

 

The access driveway and parking module design must:

2.     Be generally in accordance with the Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004,

3.     Where the design deviates from AS/NZS2890.1:2004 the designer must demonstrate that the design will provide a safe and efficient access, and enable safe, easy and efficient use, and

4.     Show dimensions, levels, gradients & transitions, and other details as Council deem necessary to satisfy the above requirement.

 

Advice:

·        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 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 approved by this permit must be constructed to a sealed standard and surface drained to the Council's stormwater infrastructure prior to the commencement of use.

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.

 

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, and maintained until all areas of disturbance have been stabilized or re­vegetated.
