DEVELOPMENT REPORT TO ENVIRONMENT, PLANNING AND<br />
ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICES COMMITTEE MEETING<br />
HELD ON TUESDAY 1 AUGUST 2006 Page 15<br />
P06/53 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION NO: 861/06– BROULEE 02.6410.D<br />
MULTI-PURPOSE HARDCOURT & CLASSROOM ADDITIONS 02.6410.B<br />
Policy<br />
Development Control Plans<br />
The only DCP applicable to this proposal is the <strong>Eurobodalla</strong> Parking Code. The Code bases<br />
parking requirements for educational establishments on student numbers. This proposal does<br />
not generate an increase in student numbers and therefore does not create additional parking<br />
requirements.<br />
Yellow-Bellied Glider Conservation Policy<br />
The proposal does not require the removal of any trees and therefore does not impact on the<br />
Yellow-Bellied Glider Conservation Policy.<br />
Consultation<br />
This application was notified and advertised in accordance with <strong>Council</strong>’s Advertising and<br />
Notification DCP. One submission was received in respect of the application. The submission<br />
outlined concerns in regard to the following:<br />
1. The size of the proposed court compared to the existing hardcourt.<br />
Comment: The sizes of both courts are similar.<br />
2. Are the new courts replacing the existing court?<br />
Comment: While not necessarily replacing the existing courts that are fenced off and not in<br />
use due to complaints from nearby residents the school requires a usable hardcourt which this<br />
proposal aims to provide. Usage of the court is therefore expected to reflect the previous use<br />
of the existing court e.g. primarily basketball and tennis. The future use of the existing court<br />
area is yet to be determined and requires further consultation between the school, <strong>Council</strong>,<br />
and residents. Determination of this DA is not considered to be dependent on this issue.<br />
3. Lighting, out-of-hours usage.<br />
Comment: No lighting is proposed and the applicant proposes use of the courts between<br />
8am-5pm Monday to Saturday only. This will be reflected in the terms of any consent issued.<br />
4. Will the courts be built before or after other approved school buildings are built?<br />
Comment: The court can potentially be built before any other approved buildings are<br />
constructed. This is not considered to be an issue, given the distance of approx. 100m between<br />
the proposal and the property boundary adjoining neighbouring residences. It is<br />
acknowledged, however, that construction of the future primary module will provide<br />
additional screening and buffering between the proposal and adjoining residences.
