6.       Planning Authority Items - Consideration of Items with Deputations

 

In accordance with the requirements of Part 2 Regulation 8(3) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Chief Executive Officer is to arrange the agenda so that the planning authority items are sequential.

 

In accordance with Part 2 Regulation 8(4) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Committee by simple majority may change the order of any of the items listed on the agenda, but in the case of planning items they must still be considered sequentially – in other words they still have to be dealt with as a single group on the agenda.

BEHRAKIS

 

That in accordance with Regulation 8(4) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the Committee resolve to deal with any items which have deputations by members of the public regarding any planning matter listed on the agenda, to be taken out of sequence in order to deal with deputations at the beginning of the meeting.

2.      a digital recording of a CCTV inspection and written condition assessment report in accordance with WSA 05­2013 Conduit Inspection Reporting Code of Australia, in a 'Wincan’ compatible format; and

3.      photos of any existing drainage structures connected to or modified as part of the development.

 

 

The post-construction condition assessment will be relied upon to establish the extent of any damage caused to the Hobart City Council’s stormwater infrastructure during construction.  If the owner/developer fails to provide the City of Hobart with an adequate post­construction condition assessment then any damage to the Hobart City Council’s infrastructure identified in the post-construction CCTV will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner/developer.

 

SW 3

The proposed structures, including retaining wall footings, must be designed to ensure the protection and access to the Hobart City Council’s stormwater main.

3.      show dimensions, levels, gradients and transitions, and other details as Council deem necessary to satisfy the above requirement.

 

The vehicle barriers must be installed in accordance with the approved detailed designs prior to first occupation.

 

Advice:
This condition requires further information to be submitted as a Condition Endorsement. Refer to the Condition Endorsement advice at the end of this permit.

Advice:

An example certificate is available on our website.

 

Reason for condition

To ensure the safety of users of the access driveway and parking module and compliance with the relevant standards.

 

ENG 3a

The access driveway and parking area must be constructed in accordance with the following documentation which forms part of this permit: Oramatis Studio drawings C01 to C06 received by the Council on 18 January 2022.

 

Any departure from that documentation and any works which are not detailed in the documentation must be either:

 

a)      approved by the Director City Life, via a condition endorsement application; or

b)      designed and constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZ 2890.1:2004.

 

The works required by this condition must be completed prior to first occupation.

 

Reason for condition

ENG 3c

Prior to the first occupation, a suitably qualified engineer must certify that the access driveway and parking area has been constructed in accordance with design drawings approved by Condition ENG 3a.

 

Advice:

We strongly encourage you to speak to your engineer before works begin so that you can discuss the number and nature of the inspections they will need to do during the works in order to provide this certification.  It may be necessary for a surveyor to also be engaged to ensure that the driveway will be constructed as approved.

 

The reason this condition has been imposed as part of your planning permit is that the driveway is outside the Australian Standard gradients or design parameters.  If the driveway is not constructed as it has been approved then this may mean that the driveway will either be unsafe or will not function properly.

 

An example certificate is available on our website.

 

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.

 

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 to be used on the site is eight (8). All parking spaces must be delineated by means of white or yellow lines 80mm to 100mm wide, or white or yellow pavement markers in accordance with Australian Standards AS/NZS 2890.1 2004, prior to commencement of use.

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

 

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.

GEN

The use and/or development must be substantially in accordance with the documents and drawings that comprise PLN­22­125 ­ 7 SOUTH STREET BATTERY POINT TAS 7004 ­ Final Planning Documents except where modified below.

 

Reason for condition

To clarify the scope of the permit.

 

PLN s1

The height of the external wall immediately adjacent to the boundary between 7 South Street and 9 South Street must be reduced in height so that it is the minimum allowed by the National Construction Code and to the satisfaction of the Director City Life.

 

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).

 

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.

 

Reason for condition

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

 

ENG sw6

All stormwater from the proposed development (including hardstand runoff) must be discharged to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure with sufficient receiving capacity prior to first occupation. All costs associated with works required by this condition are to be met by the owner.

 

Design drawings and calculations of the proposed stormwater drainage and connections to the Council's stormwater infrastructure must be submitted and approved prior to the commencement of work. The design drawings and calculations must:

 

1.      Prepared by a suitably qualified person; and

2.      Meet the requirements of Australian Standard AS 3500 (including pumped system) or a Council approved alternative;

3.      Include long section(s)/levels and grades to the point of discharge;and

4.      Include gravity discharge to Council's public infrastructure.

 

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

 

Advice:

The applicant is advised to submit detailed design drawings and calculations as part of their Plumbing Permit Application. 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 obtain a plumbing permit for the works.

 

Reason for condition

 

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

 

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.
