GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                15 JANUARY 2018


Condition 4
4.    The ancillary shop, restaurant/cafe, multi-function room, gym and other ancillary facilities
      shall be operated and maintained as a Resort. A letting pool service promoting and
      managing short term accommodation must also be established on site and made available
      to all owners of multiple dwelling units. The community management statement for any or
      all bodies corporate having control of the Resort or any part thereof shall incorporate this
      condition. Where the development is staged, the common resort facilities must be
      completed and operational as part of the first stage or after construction of the 64th Unit.
Applicant’s requested change
The current wording of this condition is somewhat ambiguous as to when the common resort
facilities are to be completed and operational. As per previous discussions with Council, and as
reflected in the previous Council assessment report (i.e. Planning & Environment Committee
Meeting Agenda of 6 December 2016) it is requested that this condition be amended as follows
to require that the facilities be constructed and operational prior to the commencement of use of
the 64th dwelling unit:-
4.    The ancillary shop, restaurant/cafe, multi-function room, gym and other ancillary facilities
      shall be operated and maintained as a Resort. A letting pool service promoting and
      managing short term accommodation must also be established on site and made available
      to all owners of multiple dwelling units. The community management statement for any or
      all bodies corporate having control of the Resort or any part thereof shall incorporate this
      condition. Where the development is staged, the common resort facilities must be
      completed and operational as part of the first stage or after construction prior to the
      commencement of use of the 64th Unit.
Assessment
It is not reasonable to change the wording of this condition as proposed by the applicant. The
intent of the condition is to ensure the development of the resort facilities and that the
development of these facilities occurs in a timely manner. This will also allow the initial occupants
of the resort to use the facilities. Furthermore the use of the 64th unit could occur a considerable
time after its development. Therefore, it is recommended that the wording of condition 4 remain
unchanged.


Condition 8
8.    The development’s external colour scheme shall use muted environmental tones of
      browns, greens and greys to integrate the development with its landscape setting and
      ensure the development does not visually impact on the vegetated skyline. All buildings
      shall utilise the finishes palette detailed on Plan 7038- DA14 Issue 05 Dated 06.06.2017.
      The use of paint finish Taubmans Tahira White is to be minimised.
Applicant’s requested change
To reflect the colours and finishes palette submitted as part of the change request the applicant
requests the condition be amended to:
8.    The development’s external colour scheme shall use muted environmental tones of
      browns, greens and greys to integrate the development with its landscape setting and
      ensure the development does not visually impact on the vegetated skyline. All buildings
      shall utilise the finishes palette detailed on Plan 7038- DA14 Issue 05 Dated 06.06.2017 06
      Dated 29-09-17. The use of paint finish Taubmans Tahira White is to be minimised.
Assessment
The colours and finishes palette provides for exactly the same colour finishes as previously
approved – the only change relates to the issue number and the date on the plans. Accordingly,
this minor change is supported.
