Council Minutes 21 January 2008 - Waratah-Wynyard Council

Planning Authority Reports
Arthur Papakostas
Issue Raised:
Suggests that Council could contribute to half the cost of the development of
York Street and then to be reimbursed monies by applying a condition to any
future development along the new section of York Street and therefore
recuperate the cost.
Planning Comment:
York Street is already constructed for the length of the proposed subdivision.
A condition of permit will require the developers to provide kerb and
channelling from the intersection of Inglis Street to the eastern boundary of
proposed lot 13.
Carter and Franks Builders
Issue Raised:
Concerned that Housing Commission properties will be constructed 12 metres
away from representor’s property at Lot 42 Inglis Park. Covenants will be
broken and the quality of homes in Inglis Park will deteriorate.
Planning Comment:
It is understood that there are covenants on the titles for the lots located within
the Inglis Park Estate subdivision opposite the subject site requiring that no
Housing Commission houses be constructed within the estate. There is no
covenant on the title for the subject site, and it is noted that the proposal is for
subdivision only at this stage in any case.
Ian Carter & Marilyn Carter
Issue Raised:
Inglis Park Estate covenants stated that no Housing Commission Houses are
to be built in the park. If the subdivision proceeds it will make the covenants
non valid and increase the level of non-privately owned homes in the area.
Planning Comment:
It is understood that there are covenants on the titles for the lots located within
the Inglis Park Estate subdivision opposite the subject site requiring that no
Housing Commission houses be constructed within the estate. There is no
