COMMITTEE RESOLUTION: |
||||||||||||||||
|
That pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Planning Committee, in accordance with the delegations contained in its terms of reference, approves the application for Alterations to Parking Area and Landscaping at 123 WOODCUTTERS RD TOLMANS HILL TAS 7007 for the reasons outlined in the officer’s report and a permit containing the following conditions be issued: The use and/or development must be substantially in accordance with the documents and drawings that comprise PLN-24-225 123 Woodcutters Road Tolmans Hill Final Planning Documents except where modified below. Reason for condition To clarify the scope of the permit.
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. Council notes that site photos show impervious surfaces (such as the consolidated crushed granite landscaped areas and deck) which are not shown as drained. All runoff from impervious areas must be directed to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure. Alternatively, the areas may be converted to a pervious material to ensure that stormwater is not directed onto neighbouring properties. Reason for condition To ensure that stormwater from the site will be discharged to a suitable Council approved outlet. The proposed (retaining wall) must be designed to ensure the protection and access to the Council's stormwater main. The works must be undertaken and maintained in accordance with the submitted planning permit documents. Reason for condition To ensure the protection of the Council's hydraulic infrastructure. The "Existing Landscaped Utilities Area" and "Existing Forecourt Area" as shown on the submitted documentation are not car parking areas, approval as car parking areas is not implied or granted as part of this permit. Reason for condition To clarify the scope of the permit. 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, pre-existing 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 site-related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner's full cost. 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 re-vegetated. Advice: For guidance, please see the TEER & DEP (2023) Erosion and Sediment Control guideline documents available from the Derwent Estuary Program's website. Reason for condition To avoid the sedimentation of roads, drains, natural watercourses, Council land that could be caused by erosion and runoff from the development, and to comply with relevant State legislation. ADVICE The following advice is proved to you to assist in the implementation of the planning permit that has been issued subject to the conditions above. The advice is not exhaustive and you must inform yourself of any other legislation, by-laws, regulations, codes or standards that will apply to your development under which you may need to obtain an approval. Visit the Council's website for further information. Prior to any commencement of work on the site or commencement of the use the following additional/permits/approval may be required from the Hobart City Council. BUILDING PERMIT You may need building approval in accordance with the Building Act 2016. Click here for more information. This is a discretionary permit issued in accordance with section 57 of the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993. PLUMBING PERMIT You may need plumbing approval in accordance with the Building Act 2016 and the National Construction Code. FEES AND CHARGES Click here for information on the Council's fees and charges. DIAL BEFORE YOU DIG Click here for dial before you dig information. TOLMANS HILL LOCAL AREA PLAN The Tolmans Hill Local Area Plan is available here. This approval and subsequent conditions are given in the knowledge that the Part 5 Agreement on the title (CT. 133969/2) to the property is effective and binds the applicant to the restrictions and controls of the Tolmans Hill Local Area Plan. At the time of issue no consent had been granted under the Tolmans Hill Local Area Plan. The applicant is advised to submit a landscape plan to Council which confirms the area of disturbance on the site does not exceed 400sqm of the site. Areas for rehabilitation are to be clearly shown on the plan in conformity with the restrictions and controls of Stage 5 of the Tolmans Hill Local Area Plan. The areas for rehabilitation should indicate use of local native planting species, including trees and ground covers and show the size and location of all planting within these areas. The Applicant is advised that until a landscape plan has been submitted and approved and any works are completed so that the site complies with the restrictions and controls of the Tolmans Hill Local Area Plan and this permit, enforcement proceedings under ENF-22-246 remain outstanding. Plant species listed in Council’s Restricted Plant List: Potentially Invasive Species Generally Unsuitable for Planting in or Adjacent Bushland, Riparian and Coastal Areas (June 2011) must not be planted on the lot.
