OUTDOOR DINING AND UMBRELLA INFRASTRUCTURE GUIDELINES

For your information, you are advised that until such time as the Council resolves the future direction for the management of the southern footpath on Salamanca Place between Montpelier Retreat and the Silos, the following guidelines apply:

·      The City of Hobart as highway authority only consider requests for the installation of additional fixed or permanent umbrellas on the southern footpath if the installation of those umbrellas would not conflict with the future provision of:

1.         A 3 metre clear pedestrian path (that may only be covered by temporary umbrellas) adjacent to the building line;

2.         A 1.5 metre wide clear pedestrian path (that may only be covered by temporary umbrellas) between outdoor dining furniture and parked cars;and

3.         A 1.2 metre wide clear pedestrian path between outdoor dining areas.

·      The City of Hobart as highway authority only consider requests for the installation of tables, chairs and barriers to facilitate outdoor dining that can be removed from the public footpath when not in use.

·      Subject to the recommendations above, in relation to request for new or adjusted occupation licences for outdoor dining on the Salamanca Place southern footpath between Kennedy Lane and Wooby's Lane, the City of Hobart as highway authority permit the installation of removable tables, chairs and barriers to facilitate outdoor dining on the equivalent alignment to those currently in front of the businesses Maldini, Jack Greene, Cargo and Grape.

·      The General Manager advise any applicant considering the purchase and installation of furniture on the Salamanca Place footpath of the above recommendations, and further advise that until such time that the Council considers and resolves its future direction for the management of that footpath, that any furniture purchased and installed that is not compatible with the future direction may need to be removed at the applicant's cost.

·      When the Council implements changes to the regulations in this area, the applicants must ensure compliance with the new regulations at their own cost.
