             STATUTORY PROCESS:

             The applicant has requested to make a change to a development approval under s369 of the
             Sustainable Planning Act 2009. A request to change a development approval under s369 can only
             be made in circumstances where that change would constitute a ‘permissible change’.

             The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to
             constitute a permissible change on grounds that:
              The change would not result in a substantially different development
              The change would not require the application to be referred to additional concurrence
                agencies;
              The original application was code assessable and the change would not cause the application
                to become impact assessable

             On this basis, the applicant has followed lawful process in making a request under s369 of the Act.


             ASSESSMENT:
             Request Made By Applicant
             The applicant has requested to change 2 conditions of the approval. The changes are minor and
             do not affect the overall development. The original request included signage on the proposed
             “Jetty Tee Head” but the applicant in an email dated 29/8/2014 removed the signage component.

             Assessment of Request
             Condition 4
             No posts or vertical supports of the proposed jetty are to extend vertically from the structure unless
             they provide support for the handrail

             Applicant’s Request
             As this marina facility is primarily focused on commercial tour companies it is extremely important
             we address the safety of the facility ie: lighting at floor level change points.

             In parallel it is a pre-requisite in this era to offer CCTV camera security for vessels and afer having
             contractors on site to assess – this location is the only area that will capture the entire mooring
             facility.

             Assessment of Request
             It is acknowledged that there is a need for the requested lighting and security cameras. It is
             recommended that condition 4 be reworded as follows:

             No posts or vertical supports of the proposed jetty are to extend vertically from the structure unless
             they provide support for handrails, lighting of the walkways or security cameras.

             Condition 7
             There must be no electrical reticulation system carrying electricity in excess of 24 volts beyond the
             northern boundary of Lease P

             Applicant’s Request
             This condition significantly prohibits the functionality of a commercial marina. I request
             confirmation that it is permissible to install a 240 volt electrical system beyond the northern
             boundary of lease P.

             Assessment of Request
             The inclusion of the condition is based on safety grounds due to the potential for outlets/features to
             be inundated by flood waters. The applicant has acknowledged this in the request and advises that
             “services will be attached to the floating pontoon sections” and “all installations will be carried out

             by a licensed and certified electrical installer.” This issue has been raised on other similar
             applications and it is recommended that the condition be amended to read as follows:

             There must be no electrical reticulation system carrying electricity in excess of 24 volts beyond the
             northern boundary of lease P unless all switches and power outlets are positioned above the
             1%AEP flood level.

             CONCLUSION
             The applicant’s requests are considered reasonable and the changes will not result in any off-site
             impacts.
