Ref:    Open CPC 7.1.1, 16/11/2020

Application Expiry Date: 9 December 2020

That pursuant to the Sullivans Cove Planning Scheme 1997, the Council approve the application for alterations to stormwater infrastructure at 20 McVilly Drive, Hobart for the reasons outlined in the officer’s report attached to item 7.1.1 of the Open City Planning Committee agenda of 16 November 2020 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 PLN­20­245 ­ 20 MCVILLY DRIVE HOBART TAS 7000 ­ Advertised Documents except where modified below.

Reason for condition

To clarify the scope of the permit.

ENG sw4

The site must be drained to Council infrastructure.  A new stormwater connection must be constructed and existing abandoned connections sealed by the Council at the owner’s expense, prior to completion/ commencement of use (whichever occurs first).

Detailed engineering drawings must be submitted and approved, prior to the issuing of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or commencement of works (whichever occurs first). The detailed engineering drawings must include:

a.      the location of the proposed connections and all existing connections.

b.      the size and design of the connection(s) such that they are appropriate to safely service the development, taking into account the maximum permissible discharge into the existing main of 11.55L/s.

c.       long­sections of the proposed connection(s) clearly showing any nearby services, cover, size, material and delineation of public and private infrastructure.

d.      Clearly distinguish between public and private infrastructure.

e.      Be checked and certified by a qualified and experienced engineer.

All private plumbing must be contained fully within the Lot boundary.

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

Advice:

The applicant is advised to submit detailed design drawings via the City Amenity Division’s 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 the 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 pre­ treatment and detention for stormwater discharges from the development must be installed prior to issue of a Certificate of Completion.

A stormwater management report and design must be submitted and approved, prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016 or commencement of work (whichever occurs first). The stormwater management report and design must:

a.      be prepared by a suitably qualified engineer.

b.      include detailed design of the proposed treatment train, demonstrating best practice for the expected pollutant loads.  Council notes carpark treatment must target fine sediments and hydrocarbons.

c.       include final detailed design and supporting calculations of the detention basin, sized such that there is no increase in flows from the developed site up to 5% AEP storm events.  All assumptions must be clearly stated.  The detailed design must include suitable planting.

d.      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 and maintained in accordance with the approved stormwater management report and design.

Advice:

A maximum discharge rate of 11.55L/s for the critical 5% AEP event (as proposed under PAM­19­192) to the new connection is accepted.

Once the stormwater management report and design has been approved the Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

Reason for condition

To avoid the possible pollution of drainage systems and natural watercourses, to comply with relevant State legislation, and to ensure the development’s stormwater system takes into account limited receiving capacity of the Council’s infrastructure.

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.

ENV 2

Sediment and erosion control measures, in accordance with an approved soil and water management plan (SWMP), must be installed prior to the commencement of work and maintained until such time as all disturbed areas have been stabilised and/or restored or sealed to the Council’s satisfaction.

A SWMP must be submitted prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016 or the commencement of work, whichever occurs first. The SWMP must be prepared in accordance with the Soil and Water Management on Building and Construction Sites fact sheets (Derwent Estuary Program, 2008), available here.

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

Advice:

Once the SWMP 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 avoid the pollution and sedimentation of roads, drains and natural watercourses that could be caused by erosion and runoff from the development.
