20240510_NSC_Cover letter_M1717P_ Civil OPW minor change (2) · OPW12/0095.03

.




The original civil operational works (engineering works) approval (Council ref; OPW 12/0095) was issued by Council on 23
July 2012.

On 3 April 2018, Council endorsed a generally in accordance request (Council ref: OPW12/0095.01) which sought to update
the approval operational works plans (engineering works) to recognise a recent change to the higher order MCU approval
(Council ref: 12004.5744.09).

The latest change to MCU approval was issued on 24 February 2021 (Council ref: 132004.5744.11). This change involved
relocating 20 car spaces associated with Building B, which resulted in further changes to the approved plans.

Subsequently, it was identified that some of the internal carparks had not been constructed in accordance with the
approved plans listed in the higher order development approval. To reconcile these minor discrepancies, a generally in
accordance request was made to both the Civil and Landscape Operational works approvals to capture the ‘as constructed’
works on site. Council endorsed the proposed amendments as being generally in accordance in the related approvals,
resulting in the following approvals:
     Civil Op works – OPW12/0096.02 dated 1 September 2021
     Landscaping Op works – OPW12/0110.02 dated 18 October 2021

The development is now complete and operational in accordance with the requirements of the related approvals. However,
a recent site inspection by Council identified that some of the site’s car parking was not located in accordance with the
higher order MCU approval (ie for reasons outlined above) and an additional 7 visitor spaces have been constructed (refer
to Figure 1 below). Accordingly, Council advised that a minor change was required to address these inconsistencies between
the related approvals over the site, despite most of these changes having been previously being endorsed by council.

A review of Council’s PD online identifies that there is no record of the Civil operational works GIA (OPW12/0096.02). This
may have contributed to the confusion relating to the past approvals over the site.
