structure.

Information Required


3.      Clarify and/or update proposal plans as necessary, including proposed
        location for the refuse storage area and details of the structure located
        over carpark 9.


Response

Bins

The bin enclosure that is currently located on site was constructed without an
approval and occupies the position of a car space 8. It is intended that this
will be removed and car space 8 will be reinstated. As the original approval
did not nominate an area for bin storage, bin enclosures have been identified
at the rear of the building to ensure that appropriate storage areas are
provided. This will allow for a significant improvement to the current approved
circumstance.

Car space 9

A tenant has gated a portion of space where car space 9 is identified and is
using the space for storage. It is intended that these gates will be removed
and the area will be cleared and reinstated for the purpose of a car space.

Issue

Carpark spaces appear not to be in compliance with Australian Standard (AS
2890.1) in relation to setback from the southern side wall, which should be
setback a minimum of 1.0 metre from the wall. Also, the two spaces are
constrained in relation to car manoeuvring in and out of the parking spaces.

Information Required

4.       Provide an updated plan to confirm compliance with the standard
         and provide a car turning template to demonstrate adequate turning
         area is available for a standard passenger car (B99) to enter and exit
         the space in three movements without conflict with the car occupying
         the opposite space.

Response

The original approval identified car spaces 8 and 9 in these positions. As these
spaces are constrained by their proximity to the southern boundary these will
be made staff parking spaces to ensure that new visitors do not use these.
Council’s engineering officer agreed to this approach.
