ORDINARY COUNCIL MINUTES – 30 APRIL 2008 - 18 - Moved Cr C Cowell Seconded Cr R Blennerhassett That the recommendation be adopted. CARRIED UNANIMOUSLY 11.2 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION 5/2008 ST JOHN AMBULANCE HUGHES STREET DENHAM At 9:20am Cr C Cowell declared an impartiality to item 11.2 At 9:24am Cr C Cowell left Council Chambers At 9:26 Cr C Cowell re-entered Council Chambers Author Manager Regulatory Services Disclosure of Any Interest Nil Précis Architects “Eastman Poletti Sherwood” have submitted Development Application 5/2008 on behalf of proponent St Johns Ambulance Society (Denham Branch) for approval of building additions to its existing premises Lot 293, 29 Hughes Street. The proposed building additions require Council approval to encroach into the building setback of Hughes Street. This report addresses the issue and recommends conditional approval. Background The Shire of Shark Bay Town Planning Scheme No 3 identifies Lot 293, 29 Hughes Street as Reserve 40498 vested in the Shire of Shark Bay for the purpose of Community Centre. While the St Johns Ambulance Centre can not be considered a Community Centre its operations can be considered as performing a community purpose and approval for additions to the Ambulance Building would be considered as improving the amenity of a nonconforming use building. The zoning density of Hughes Street, under the new Town Planning Scheme No 3 is R.30 and in accordance with the Residential Design Codes the required front building set-back is (4) metres but the building set-back line can be (with Council approval) within (2) metres of the front boundary provided compensating areas behind the prescribed street setback can be demonstrated. This proposal would mean that the front setback to Hughes Street would be 2.550 metres, a 1.450 metre reduction in the prescribed setback of (4) metres. Comment The most important issue in relation to the variance of set-backs is one of impact on adjoining properties and impact on the existing streetscape. At this point in time the impact to or on this location would be minimal. Legal Implications The Shire of Shark Bay Town Planning Scheme No 3. Policy Implications Residential Design Codes adopted pursuant to Town Planning Scheme No 3. Financial Implications Nil.
ORDINARY COUNCIL MINUTES – 30 APRIL 2008 - 19 - Strategic Implications It is important to assess individually all applications for set-back variances to a primary street if they are not in accordance with the Residential Design Codes. Recommendation That Architects Eastman Poletti Sherwood on behalf of the proponents St Johns Ambulance (Denham Sub Branch) be advised that Council approve of the reduced building set-back in accordance with development application 5/2008 and subject to the submission and approval of building plans and specifications.
