In accordance with the requirements of Part 2 Regulation 8(3) of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the General Manager 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.
Where deputations are to be received in respect to planning items, past practice has been to move consideration of these items to the beginning of the meeting.
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.

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

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.
HER 17a
The palette of exterior colours, materials and finishes for the new house must reflect the palette of materials within the local streetscape and precinct.
Prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016, revised plans must be submitted and approved showing exterior colours, materials and finishes in accordance with the above requirement.
All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved plans.
Reason for condition
To ensure that development at a heritage precinct is undertaken in a sympathetic manner which does not cause loss of historic cultural heritage significance.
HER 17b
The use of the colour and material Colorbond 'Ironstone' on the roof of the new dwelling is not approved. An alternative colour must be selected and used that is equivalent to the BASIX classification for Colorbond in the light to medium solar absorptance range and is more sympathetic to and reflect the exterior colours within the local streetscape and precinct.
Prior to the issue of any approval under the Building Act 2016, revised plans must be submitted and approved which shows an alternative roof cladding in accordance with the above requirements.
All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved revised plans.

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 (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 commencement of use.
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 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.
ENG 13
The front fencing and gate to the Lillie Street highway reservation must allow adequate sight distance between user vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians.

LORD MAYOR REYNOLDS |

That a report be prepared on the possible amendments, and their merits, to the planning regulations to more appropriately control the number of private properties being converted to short stay accommodation. |

MOTION CARRIED
VOTING RECORD

COMMITTEE RESOLUTION: |
||||||||||||||
“That a report be prepared on the possible amendments, and their merits, to the planning regulations to more appropriately control the number of private properties being converted to short stay accommodation.”
Rationale: “The impact of SSA on the private rental market here in Hobart is now well-documented by leading academics. Peer-reviewed research demonstrates a causal link between high levels of SSA and availability and affordability on our local private rental market. AHURI research released this week found that a staggering 12% of all private rentals in our LGA had been converted to SSA by March 2020: this is one of the highest globally. When the market retracted due to Covid, 22% (or a return of 2.64% of all rental properties) of the SSA homes returned to the longer term rental market, resulting in a drop in rental prices across our LGA of 9%.
But because of the boost in social support payments (Jobkeeper, Jobseeker), the vacancy rate is now back to pre-Covid levels, as people who previously could not afford to rent appropriate housing (living in overcrowded sharehouses, hostels, caravans, garages etc.) have been able to enter the private rental market.
We are still in a housing crisis. Affordability and availability of rental properties in Hobart is well below what is considered healthy, with the vacancy rate sitting at 0.6% (SQM Research) - a healthy vacancy rate is 3%. Housing in our LGA is not affordable to those on lower incomes, and our city and surrounding suburbs are becoming gentrified at an alarming rate.
When entire homes are converted to SSA in an already tight rental market, it negatively impacts the supply and affordability for local residents. This pushes people on lower incomes- students, migrants, people from CALD backgrounds, LGBTIQ+ folk and people with disabilities out of our LGA, leading to further stratification of our community, as well as the loss of the culture and vibrancy that having a social mix of residents brings.
We as a Council have a duty of care to our community to explore all mechanisms available to us, in order to facilitate more equitable housing outcomes in our city; which will be especially impactful for marginalised people and those on lower incomes.
In order to rebuild our local economy and maintain a safe and inclusive community, we need to design policies that enable diverse people to not only work and play, but live in our city and surrounds. This is responsible planning for the future of our city in a post-Covid world.
This recommendation links to the Hobart City Vision and Capital City Strategic Plan 2019-29:
Pillar 1.4: We think of our city as a whole. Pillar 2.2: We celebrate our diversity and include each other in city life. Strategy 2.2.6: Identify those people in the community who are most disadvantaged, excluded and vulnerable and develop appropriate initiatives to address their issues, in partnership with stakeholders. Pillar 2.6: We keep our people safe, help each other and flourish in adversity. Strategy 2.4.5: Ensure that Hobart is a safe and liveable city by enhancing community and public safety and security, working in partnership with key stakeholders. Pillar 4.6: Hobart’s economy is diversified. Strategy 4.5.5: Prepare for the impacts of long term trends, such as climate change, transport modes, and tourism and housing demand cycles, on the Hobart economy. Pillar 7.1: We all have access to an affordable home. Strategy 7.1.2: Advocate for people at risk of housing stress and homelessness. Strategy 7.1.5: Advocate for legislative and other tools that support social and affordable housing. Strategy 7.1.6 Monitor and respond to the impacts of visitor accommodation. Pillar 7.4: We balance local needs with those of visitors and investors. Strategy 7.3.1: Ensure the City’s infrastructure supports affordable, sustainable and healthy living, and access to services for all. Pillar 7.6: We are deliberate in our development and plan for the future. Strategy 7.4.1: Ensure the City’s land use and development policies work to maintain Hobart’s identity and character. Strategy 7.4.3: Ensure transport and land use planning are integrated to deliver the best economic, social and environmental outcomes into the future.
Strategy 7.4.6: Work with experts in government, industry and academia to understand the trends and changes that will affect Hobart’s built environment. Strategy 7.4.7: Engage the community in conversations about the built environment, land use planning and major projects. Pillar 8.4: Our leadership reflects our communities. Strategy 8.1.4: Make effective use of research, evaluation and data to inform the City’s work and respond to trends and changes. Strategy 8.3.4: Ensure City leadership aligns with Council values. Strategy 8.3.5: Provide active stewardship of the community vision.

The General Manager advises:
“Short stay visitor accommodation in the City of Hobart is governed by Planning Directive No. 6 Exemption and Standards for Visitor Accommodation in Planning Schemes. The directive was issued by the Minister for Planning and came into effect on 1st August 2018.
Any changes or relaxation to the Directive will be a matter for the Minister and or the Tasmanian Planning Commission and a report that investigates the mechanisms and approach to making the case for such change would be the first step in the Council’s deliberation on this matter.”
