Good morning Councillors this is an application drink to add a outlet food and drink outlet hostel in Mary Street it was in 2018 like 2018 that the hostel was approved by the time it had been completed it was when COVID was occurring and around that time the acting manager of development assessment permitted the use of the existing there was a within the hostel itself there was a café area that was approved for guests of the hostel to use was a condition that was included to advise that the café wasn't to be used by the public and in December of 2021 not long after the hostel was completed the acting manager consented temporary approval the temporary use permit to allow that café to be used by the non by one guest a food and drink outlet is an inconsistent use on this site it's within the Mary Street health and well-being precinct there's an intention of the scheme to have a transition of land uses between Mary Street and the residential dwellings behind the hostel to ensure that there's no amenity impacts the design of this building is such that it encases the site with the food and drink outlet being located within the perimeter of the building towards the front of the site. And the design of the building was designed to ensure that there was limited amenity impacts on the surrounding residents. Through the operation of the temporary use permit until June 2023, there were no complaints associated with the use of the food and drink outlet. And there was also a letter from an adjoining landowner supporting the use at that time. In January 2024, there was an application to use the food and drink outlet by the public, put to Council as another change that was notified, no submissions, and that was supported by Council. There was a condition allowing that used to occur for 12 months, again to ensure that there was no amenity impacts. There was no complaints received during those 12 months. Unfortunately the applicant forgot to seek an extension of that use and therefore that use lapsed and they've had to come back now to seek its approval again, publicly notified. With no submissions we've had no complaints about the operation of the food and drink outlet throughout its time and again seek to allow the use to occur on the site with no lapse period so to allow that food and drink outlet to continue on an ongoing basis so it's recommended for approval.
