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.
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.
RECOMMENDATION
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.
No deputations were received.
In accordance with the provisions of Part 2 Regulation 25 of the Local Government (Meeting Procedures) Regulations 2015, the intention of the Committee to act as a planning authority pursuant to the Land Use Planning and Approvals Act 1993 is to be noted.

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 3b.
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.

VISITOR ACCOMMODATION
More information on visitor accommodation, including when building approval is required, can be found here.
In all cases, check with your insurance company that you have adequate cover.
If you are in a bushfire prone area there may be a need to create/review the Bushfire Management Hazard Plan for your property.
If you have a spa or a pool at your property then you are required to test for microbiological quality and chemical parameters on a monthly basis, under the Public Health Act 1997. If you have any questions about this then please call our Environmental Health team on 6238 2711.
If you are providing food for consumption on the property, you may require a food business registration in accordance with the Food Act 2003. Click here for more information, or call our Environmental Health team on 6238 2711.
You are encouraged to have in place a management plan for the operation of the visitor accommodation. The management plan should include measures to limit, manage and mitigate unreasonable impacts upon the amenity of permanent residents, including addressing issues like noise, waste management, customer behaviour, security, and maximum occupancy.
Visitor accommodation is also considered to be a commercial use and also not eligible to residential parking permits. Under the current policy for the issuing of residential parking permits, the proposed change of use to visitor accommodation would not entitle the property to a residential parking permit, or a transferable “bed and breakfast” parking permit.
