2.       Transfer of Agenda Items

 

Are there any items, which the meeting believes, should be transferred from this agenda to the closed agenda or from the closed agenda to the open agenda, in accordance with the procedures allowed under Section 15 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015?

 

No items were transferred.

 

 

 

3.       Communication from the Chairman

 

No communication was received.

4.       Notification of Council Workshops

In accordance with the requirements of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Acting General Manager reports that no Council workshops have been conducted since the last ordinary meeting of the Council.

 

5.       Public Question Time

 

5.1      Mr Ben Lohberger - UTAS

 

Mr Loherber put the following questions and was provided with the corresponding response by the Lord Mayor.

 

Question 1:

 

The University of Tasmania has announced a deal to pay rates for the next 10 years on properties it owns around the Hobart CBD.

 

·         Will this deal be backdated to when UTAS started purchasing properties in the CBD? If not, when will UTAS begin paying rates under this deal?

·         Does the deal require UTAS to pay rates that are calculated using the same method as all other properties in Hobart?

·         What will happen at the end of the ten-year period when this deal expires?

 

Question 2:

 

Immediately after announcing the decision to abandon the Sandy Bay campus and move into Hobart’s CBD, UTAS revealed that moving will cost $30 million more than the cost of renovating the existing campus. Several weeks earlier, the Lord Mayor and Deputy Mayor attended the so-called consultation process run by UTAS.

 

·         During that process, did the University claim that the cost of moving to Hobart would actually be cheaper than the cost of renovating the existing campus?

 

 

 

 

 

 

Response:

It is the Council’s understanding that UTAS intends to enter into an arrangement with the Council to make payments equal to or greater than the equivalent of general rates for the property it owns.  The Council is not aware of any further detail other than what has been publically released by UTAS to the media.

 

The Deputy Lord Mayor and I were invited by the Vice Chancellor to view the consultation materials that UTAS was providing to staff – by way of a series of presentation panels. The information was a summary of the choice UTAS needed to make and a balanced presentation on each of the choices. From the information presented there was no claim that relocating the campus to the City centre would be cheaper than redeveloping the Sandy Bay campus.

6.       Petitions

 

6.1      Petition - Pura Factory: Augusta Road/Giblin Street

 

The Acting General Manager tabled a petition from the residents of Lenah Valley concerning heavy vehicle use of the Augusta Road/Giblin Street corridor to access the Pura Factory.

There were 54 signatories to the petition.

9.1      55 Mount Stuart Road, Mount Stuart - Adjacent Road Reserve - Four Multiple Dwellings and Works in Road Reserve

            PLN-18-716 - File Ref: F19/37227

Ref:    Open CPC 7.1.1, 8/04/2019

Application Expiry Date: 15 April 2019

Extension of Time: Not applicable

 

That pursuant to the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015, the Council refuse the application for four multiple dwellings and works in road reserve at 55 Mount Stuart Road, Mount Stuart and adjacent road reserve for the following reasons:

 

1.         The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 10.4.4 A2 and P2 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the design and siting of the multiple dwellings will cause unreasonable loss of amenity by overshadowing a window of a habitable room (other than a bedroom), of another dwelling on the same site, that faces between 30 degrees west of north and 30 degrees east of north.

2.         The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 10.4.4 A3 and P3 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the design and siting of the multiple dwellings will cause unreasonable loss of amenity by overshadowing the private open space of another dwelling on the same site, required in accordance with A2 or P2 of subclause 10.4.3.

 

3.         The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause E5.6.4 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the design, layout and location of the Mount Stuart Road access will not provide adequate sight distances to ensure the safe movement of vehicles, having regard to:

 

a.   the nature and frequency of the traffic generated by the use;

 

b.   the frequency of use of the road network;

 

c.   the need for the access;

 

d.   any traffic impact assessment; and

 

e.   any measures to improve or maintain sight distance.

 

4.         The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause E6.7.2 A1 and P1 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because the design of vehicle access points will not be safe, efficient and convenient, having regard to all of the following:

 

a.    avoidance of conflicts between users including vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians;

 

b.    avoidance of unreasonable interference with the flow of traffic on adjoining roads;

 

c.    suitability for the type and volume of traffic likely to be generated by the use or development; and

 

d.    ease of accessibility and recognition for users.

 

5.         The proposal does not meet the acceptable solution or the performance criterion with respect to clause 10.4.6 A3 and P3 of the Hobart Interim Planning Scheme 2015 because a shared driveway or parking space (excluding a parking space allocated to that dwelling), will not be screened, or otherwise located or designed, to minimise detrimental impacts of vehicle noise or vehicle light intrusion to a habitable room of a multiple dwelling.

GEN

 

The use and/or development must be substantially in accordance with the documents and drawings that comprise PLN­18­919 ­ 52 WELLESLEY STREET SOUTH HOBART TAS 7004 ­ Final Planning Documents except where modified below.

 

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).

 

Any private or private shared stormwater system passing through third­party land must have sufficient receiving capacity.

 

Reason for condition

 

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

 

ENG 3a

 

The parking module (parking spaces, aisles and manoeuvring area) must be designed and constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004 with the following exceptions:

 

·          Maximum gradients and minimum sight distances in accordance with Matt Gilley Design Drawings C01 and C02.

 

Advice:

 

·          It is advised that designers consider the detailed design of the 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.

 

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 (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/commencement of use (whichever occurs first).

 

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 5

 

The number of car parking spaces approved on the site is two (2).

 

Reason for condition

 

To ensure the provision of parking for the use is safe and efficient.

 

 

ENG 11

 

Prior to the first occupation/commencement of the use (whichever occurs first), the proposed crossover to the Wellesley Street highway reservation must be designed and constructed in general accordance with LGAT Standard Drawing ­ Urban ­ TSD­R09­v1 Urban Roads Driveways and TSD R14­v1 Type KC vehicular crossing, or a Council City Infrastructure Division approved alternate design.

 

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 Infrastructure Division to discuss approval of alternate designs. Based on a site specific assessment, Council City Infrastructure Division 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.

Motions of which notice has been given

 

IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION 16(5) OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT (MEETING PROCEDURES) REGULATIONS 2015
 

13.      Local Government Act - Petitions Polls & Meetings

            File Ref: F19/33120; 13-1-9

Ref:    Open FGC 7.1, 9/04/2019

 

Alderman Zucco

Motion:

 

“That in order to enhance the democratic process a report be prepared to review Part 6 of the Local Government Act 1993 in relation to petitions, polls and meetings with a view to the Act being amended to place controls around the requirements for councils to hold elector meetings and conduct elector polls, including:

(i)      the threshold for petitions requiring councils to hold an elector meeting or conduct an elector poll

(ii)     the timing of an elector poll

(iii)    the costs to communities for both and

(iv)    the potential for electronic elector polls to be undertaken online,

while addressing anomalies and unintended consequences.”

 

Rationale:

In the last 18 months the Council has received three elector petitions requiring the Council to conduct elector meetings. Provided the petitions exceed the threshold in the Act of 1,000 electors or 5% of the electors, whichever is the lesser, the Council is obliged to hold the elector meeting.

Elector meetings are expensive and the Council does not have the ability to not hold the meetings. In addition, following an elector meeting, the Act allows for a further petition to be lodged within thirty days of the meeting requiring the Council (provided the elector threshold is met) to conduct an elector poll.

An elector poll is expensive (in Hobart’s case the cost would be +/- $140,000 -$175,000 based on a $4-5 per Elector x 35,000 electors plus officer time) and the result of the poll is not binding on the Council.

The tight time frames imposed under the Act plus the obligatory requirements for the Council to hold a meeting and conduct an elector poll require review.

In addition, elector polls should not be conducted outside the ordinary council election cycle.

 

The Acting General Manager reports:

 

“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as it relates to the provisions of the Local Government Act 1993.”

14.      Local Government Association of Tasmania - Membership

            File Ref: F19/32255; 13-1-9

Ref:    Open FGC 7.2, 9/04/2019

 

Aldermen Zucco / Behrakis

Motion:

 

That a report be prepared on the strategic value of the City of Hobart maintaining its membership to the Local Government Association of Tasmania (LGAT) and explore opportunities for the formation of a metropolitan councils association.”

 

Rationale:

 

With the recent signing of the Greater Hobart City Deal and the development of the Greater Hobart Act a governance structure will be established to guide and support the three levels of government to work together in collaboration to implement the Greater Hobart City Deal.  

 

Given the opportunities that this governance structure presents for the City of Hobart to work with our neighbouring urban councils (Clarence City, Glenorchy City and Kingborough) along with the Australian and Tasmanian governments, continued membership to the LGAT warrants serious consideration by the Council.

 

The Acting General Manager reports:

                                                

“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as it relates to the Council’s membership of the LGAT.”

Item 16 was then taken.

 

15.      Joining the ICAN Nuclear Weapons-Free Cities Appeal

            File Ref: F19/36723; 13-1-9

Ref:    Open FGC 7.3, 9/04/2019

 

Deputy Lord Mayor Burnet

Motion:

“Given the lack of action by the federal government on signing the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons (2017), and the ongoing concern of Hobart residents about the threat nuclear weapons pose to communities throughout the world, the City of Hobart:

1)   Endorse and join the ICAN Cities Appeal for a nuclear weapons-free planet. The UN Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons Treaty is the first treaty to comprehensively outlaw nuclear weapons, setting out a pathway for their total elimination.

2)   Write to the federal government, leader of the Opposition Party and other parties endorsing the ICAN Cities Appeal

3)   Ensure that funds administered by the City of Hobart are not invested in companies that produce nuclear weapons.

4)   Issue a press release announcing that Hobart has joined other cities across the world to call on their governments to sign and ratify the UN Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.”

 

Rationale:

More than seven decades on from the atomic destruction of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, we are still living under the shadow of the bomb. Almost 15,000 nuclear weapons remain in our world, held by nine nations.

Many Hobart citizens are deeply concerned about the grave threat that nuclear weapons pose to communities throughout the world.

The Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons endorsed by the United Nations in 2017 has not yet been signed by Australia.

As a member of Mayors for Peace, the City of Hobart has already committed to working towards a nuclear-free planet. Mayors for Peace has also endorsed a Nuclear Weapons-free Treaty, and supports the actions of the International Campaign for the Abolition of Nuclear Weapons. A letter of endorsement for the Treaty and the ICAN Cities Appeal can be read here.

 

The Acting General Manager reports:

 

“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as the motion, as proposed, supports the work undertaken by the Mayors for Peace towards a nuclear-free planet. The City of Hobart is a member of the Mayors for Peace.”

16.      Safe and Welcoming Community

            File Ref: F19/36761; 13-1-9

Ref:    Open FGC 7.4, 9/04/2019

 

Councillor Harvey

Motion:

 

That, in line with the Hobart Community Vision and City of Hobart Social Inclusion Policy 2014-2019; the Council reaffirm its commitment to creating a safe and welcoming City, by supporting strong gun regulation and rejecting any attempt to weaken gun control laws, and in doing so, the Council implement the following actions:

 

1.      Write to the leaders of all political parties (State and Federal) urging them to stand firm against efforts to weaken gun control laws and to reject political donations from the gun lobby; and

 

2.      Write to the Prime Minister and the Tasmanian Premier affirming the Council’s position for strong gun control laws.”

 

 

 

 

 

 

Rationale:

 

In light of the recent events in Christchurch, the exposure of One Nation’s attempt to influence and weaken gun control laws in association with, and tactics derived from, the National Rifle Association (NRA) in the USA, and the uncovering and highlighting of large political donations from the gun lobby in Australia to political parties, it is in the public interest and wellbeing of citizens that the Council affirm its commitment to creating a safe and welcoming city and to reject any attempt by any political party at either a state or federal level to weaken gun control laws.

Part two of Hobart’s Vision document strongly articulates that as an island, Tasmania is a socially inclusive community where people feel informed, safe, happy, healthy and resilient.  Hobart prides itself on being a safe city where we look out for each other and, given the tragic events in New Zealand, there is an opportunity for the Council to affirm its commitment to creating a safe and welcoming place for all.

The guiding principles of the City’s Social Inclusion Policy 2014-2019 highlights that recognising diversity in the community is one of our greatest strengths.  We ensure that our practices, policies and procedures actively build social inclusion and do not contribute to social exclusion by creating a liveable, safe and people friendly city.

As the capital city council it is beholden on us to take a lead role in ensuring that our community is a safe place for all.

 

The Acting General Manager reports:

 

“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as it is based on the City’s Hobart Community Vision and City of Hobart Social Inclusion Policy 2014-2019.”

17.      Sanitary Product Vending Machines in Council Bathrooms

            File Ref: F19/32123; 13-1-9

Ref:    Open PRC 7.1, 4/04/2019

 

Councillor Ewin

Motion:

“That the officers produce a report into the provision of sanitary product vending machines in Council maintained bathrooms.

 

(i).   Report is to include a strategy for a trial, which will be implemented as soon as practicable.”

 

 

 

 

 

Rationale:

 

“Recently the US passed a law requiring all public outlets to provide free sanitary products, including in schools. To my knowledge, no level of government in Australia provides or subsidises any products at all, and GST has only very recently been removed from sanitary products.

 

The only current free vending machines within Australia are from a charity organisation called Share the Dignity, which distribute period packs through Pinkbox vending machines- however, there is only one located in Hobart (at Colony 47). It is unreasonable to put the onus onto charities to provide vital services that half the population regularly require.

 

Women’s bodies should not be viewed and treated as abnormal or burdensome. Our City Vision says we are committed to inclusivity, accessibility and diversity. City of Hobart provides other necessities in bathrooms, like soap and toilet paper; sanitary products should be no different.”

 

The Acting General Manager reports:

 

“In line with the Council’s policy in relation to Notices of Motion, I advise that the matter is considered to be within the jurisdiction of the Hobart City Council as it relates to the operation of the Council’s public toilet facilities.”

2.         The strategies for a trial include consultation with potential partners and stakeholders.

 

3.         The Council undertake the scheduled reviewed of the Public Toilet Strategy.
