SECTION 1: STRATEGIC PLANNING MATTERS 1/1 Sport, Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee Recommendations from

the 14 December 2010 Re: Minute: P02/02/11 Recommendations from SRPCC From: Planning and Development Directorate File: 6-5-07-0003 Date: 14 December 2010 Reference: Nil EXECUTIVE SUMMARY At Council’s Sport, Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee (SRPCC) meeting held on the 14 December 2010, the following issues were discussed: • Review and consolidation of Open Space and Recreation Strategy; • Softball at Six Mile Ovals; • Principal cycle and pedestrian network strategy for State controlled roads

within the Gympie region; • Update regarding the proposed regional shooting facility at Curra Forest;

and • Request for sporting facilities at Mulligan’s Flat. The Committee resolved to make recommendations regarding each discussion item. This report requests that Council considers the committee’s recommendations. PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATIONS P26/03/10 (17th March 2010, Planning and Development Committee) “Recommend that Council undertake a review of the Open Space and Recreation Plan recommendations for Imbil, including an investigation of the suitability of Council owned land fronting Kandanga Imbil Road.” Report: (Strategic Planning Officer – R. N. Halse) 1. INTRODUCTION This report seeks Council’s consideration for the recommendations made by the Sport, Recreation and Parks Coordinating Committee meeting held on the 14 December 2010.

Gympie Regional Council

2. DISCUSSION ITEMS 2.1 Open Space and Recreation Strategy The Committee discussed the budget allocation to undertake Council resolution P26/03/10, and how it would be sufficient to undertake amendments to the Imbil component of the Cooloola Open Space and Recreation Strategy, in addition to reviewing and consolidating the three (3) Open Space and Recreational Strategies and consolidating them to form one Gympie Regional Council Open Space and Recreational Strategy. The committee received and reviewed three quotes, as per Procurement Policy 1.2, and considered that Strategic Leisure Group to be the most appropriate consultancy to undertake the project. The Committee resolved to recommend to Council that Strategic Leisure Group is commissioned to undertake the work on Council’s Open Space and Recreational Strategies, and this has now been adopted by Council. 2.2 Softball at Six Mile Ovals Councils Parks and Gardens Manager advised the Committee that Softball and Tee-ball were using the AFL grounds over the Christmas Holidays. This raised an issue about clarifying leasing arrangements at the AFL grounds and determining who the users of the ovals will be in 2011 to assist in preparing a budget for maintenance of the ovals. Note: (The costs for this financial year have already escalated due to additional usage; the department requires this information to plan for expenditure.) The committee resolved to recommend to Council that AFL be advised of the need to formalise any arrangements relating to additional agreed uses of the grounds (i.e. Softball). Further that AFL be invited to meet with Corporate Services and Parks and Gardens. 2.3 Principal Cycle and Pedestrian Network Strategy for State

Controlled Roads The Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) met with Council in November 2010 to discuss the development of a Principal Cycle and Pedestrian Network Strategy for State controlled roads. This state owned strategy is intended to illustrate the relationship between the state and the local networks demonstrating where focus should be given in regards to maintenance, upgrades and improved infrastructure.

Page 7: 2011-02-02 Planning & Development Commitee Meeting Mintues · March 2010, Planning and Development Committee) “Recommend that Council undertake a review of the Op en Space and Recreation

Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 2 February 2011 - 6 -

Gympie Regional Council

DTMR sought Council’s existing information on the region’s cycle and pedestrian networks. Council was able to provide a copy of the 2003 Cooloola Pedestrian and Cycle Strategy. This document proved to be suitable to determine relationships between local and State networks, but due to the work on Council Priority Infrastructure Planning (PIP’s) the Pedestrian and Cycle Strategy is now outdated. Ideally, the work undertaken on the PIP’s relating to pedestrian and cycle networks should be reflected in Council’s own strategy. From the discussions with the department, a proposal was raised to collaboratively update and review Council’s strategy to include all recent Priority Infrastructure Planning outcomes in order for the DTMR to utilise the strategy effectively. This proposed project would be a cost sharing exercise. The Sports and Recreation Committee resolved to Recommend that the Director of Planning and Development investigate funding options to initiate a collaborative project with DTMR to update the existing Cooloola Pedestrian and Bicycle Strategy 2003. 2.4 Proposed Regional Shooting Facility The Sports, Recreation and Parks Committee reported on the difficulties in obtaining advice from the State Government with regard to the relevant agency responsible for progressing negotiations for land tenure at the proposed site at Curra State Forest. The committee suggests that this will require Council to begin discussions with the State to be guaranteed a lease for this site. Until an assurance is given on the lease, the Inter Regional Management Committee will be unable to help progress the proposal. Advice from the committee is that until a responsible Government agency for the Corella land is identified, the Inter Regional Management Committee cannot meet to progress the matter further.

2.5 Mulligan’s Flat The committee discussed an enquiry regarding a recommendation contained within the Mary Valley Renewal Report to review Mulligan’s Flat as a suitable location for a Cricket Pitch. As the Open Space and Recreational Strategy review will be undertaken early in 2011 the committee agreed that it was an opportunity to include the request for consideration through this process. The committee resolved to recommend that Council include the request for a sporting facility at Mulligan’s Flat via the Open Space and Recreational Strategy process, and further that the enquirer be advised of the above process.

KEY POINT SUMMARY

• Application for Material Change of Use - Display Yard to establish an extension to the existing Pacific Hyundai Motor Dealership.

• Application lodged for assessment against Cooloola Shire Council 2005 Planning Scheme.

• Site has a split zoning of ‘Commercial’ and ‘Community’. In the Community zone a Display Yard is an ‘inconsistent’ code assessable use.

• An amalgamation occurred in May 2010 between Lot 585 SP140496 (car yard) and Lot 592 MCH3814 (DERM ownership – Reserve for Park). The Community zoning still reflects this previous State Land ownership.

• No additional buildings are proposed as part of this application. • Proposal is considered to be an appropriate use for the area. • Application referred to DTMR who have requested standard requirements be

applied to any approval. • Application recommended for APPROVAL subject to conditions. Report: (Planning Assistant – K.M. Fuller) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application seeks a development permit for Material Change of Use to establish a display yard. 1.1 The Proposal It is proposed to establish an extension to the existing Motor Dealership for Pacific Hyundai. The proposed additional display area is 358m2. No new buildings are proposed as part of this application. Provision is to be made for customer car parking spaces and landscaping to the boundaries. The existing motor dealership was approved in 2001 as a Sales and Hire Yard under DA02924. 1.2 Site Description The site has an area of 3 168m2. The land subject to the proposed extension was previously dedicated as a reserve for park by the Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM). The applicant applied for a permit to occupy through DERM for vehicle display and car parking purposes. The two sites were amalgamated in May 2010.

Gympie Regional Council

The following codes are applicable to the assessment of the application: • Gympie Planning Area Code • Erosion and Sediment Control Code • Infrastructure Works Code • Landscaping Code • Vehicle Parking and Access Code

Gympie Planning Area Code A Display Yard is listed as an inconsistent use in the Community Zone. The Community zoning is reflective of the previous tenure of the site being a Reserve for Park. Given the location of the site it is considered that: • the site does not provide a social, recreational or amenity benefit for the

community; • the site is surrounding by a mixture of commercial uses; • the constrained shape and location restricts its future development for

community uses; • the site is well positioned to provide a ancillary display area of the adjacent

car dealership; Infrastructure Works Code No headworks charges apply as it there are no structures or connection to services proposed. Landscaping Code The Code requires landscaping to be provided at the rate of 2 metres wide averaging 3 metres to all road frontages. The applicant has provided justification to reduce this requirement. It is requested that consideration be given for landscaping to be consistent with the previously approved landscaping under DA02924 at approximately 1.2 metres wide. This is accepted however a properly prepared Landscaping Plan is required to be submitted demonstrating the proposed species, planting densities and tiering in accordance with Council’s Planning Scheme Policy and Schedule. Vehicle Parking and Access Code The proposed development does not attract additional customer car parking under the code, however it is considered that car parking for the entire site be rectified as it doesn’t appear that current car parking arrangements comply with the previous approval DA02924. As the GFA of the existing building is 786m2 at least seven (7) car parking spaces (allowing 1 per 100m2 GFA) should have been allocated. The proposed new display area of 386m2 equates to at least three (3) spaces.

Planning & Development Committee Meeting – 2 February 2011 - 15 -

Gympie Regional Council

The amended proposal plans nominate seven (7) spaces on the developed portion of the site and five (5) new spaces. The car parking numbers as nominated are considered satisfactory. Erosion and Sediment Control Code It is considered that the proposed development is unlikely to have any adverse impact on the environment which cannot be adequately controlled by conditions or management practices on site. 3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 3.1 Impact on Amenity It is not considered that the proposed development will have a detrimental impact on the amenity of the area given the existing commercial and industrial uses surrounding the site. 3.2 Site Access and Traffic The current access driveway is located off Wickham Street. It is proposed to construct an additional driveway off Wickham Street to the new display area. This will be required to be constructed in accordance with Council’s standards. A footpath has previously been constructed along the Cross and Rowe Street frontages of the site and it is recommended that this footpath be continued along Rowe Street fronting the proposed display area. 3.3 Flooding The site is affected by the Q100, however no new buildings are proposed as part of this application. 4.0

4.2 External

CONSULTATION 4.1 Internal (a) Design Services Division Conditions have been included in the recommendation.

(a) Department of Transport and Main Roads This application was referred to the Department of Transport and Main Roads (DTMR) as the site is within 100 metres of a state controlled road.

Gympie Regional Council

Relevant conditions have been provided for inclusion in an approval and include requirements for no direct access to the Bruce Highway, appropriate management of stormwater and a requirement for any future/proposed advertising signage to be submitted to DTMR in accordance with the Roadside Advertising Guide 2009. 5.0 CONCLUSION As previously indicated in this report the proposed development is an inconsistent use under the Community Zone. However, as the land has been previously amalgamated with the car yard site and is no longer required as a reserve for park, no planning objection is raised.

KEY POINT SUMMARY

• Application to establish a new Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) and Reciprocal Access Easements, within the Housing Zone.

• Application lodged for assessment against Cooloola Shire Council’s Planning Scheme 2005.

• Property is Zoned Housing, for which a Commercial Premises is an ‘inconsistent’ use.

• The development proposes to utilise the existing dwelling. • Sufficient planning grounds exist in order to consider the proposed

development as an appropriate use of the site. • All other aspects of the proposed development generally comply with the

provisions of the Planning Scheme. • MCU to Establish a Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) and

Reconfiguring a Lot – Access Easements (Reciprocal), recommended to be APPROVED, subject to reasonable and relevant conditions.

Report: (Principal Planner – K.M. Toomey) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application seeks Council’s approval for a Material Change of Use – Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) and Reconfiguring a Lot – Access Easements (Reciprocal) at 3 Queen Street and 68 Channon Street, Gympie. The proposal is to reuse the existing dwelling located on the site. 1.1 The Site

The development site is located at 3 Queen Street (proposed medical facility) and 68 Channon Street, Gympie. The site was formerly within the Local Government Area of Cooloola Shire. The site has a combined area of 2 238m2 and consists of two (2) regular rectangular shaped allotments, with frontage to both Queen and Channon Streets. 68 Channon Street, is currently improved by an existing medical centre and associated car parking area, and 3 Queen Street is currently improved by a dwelling. The existing medical centre currently utilises Channon Street for both entering and exiting the site. 1.2 The Proposal The proposal comprises a Material Change of Use to establish a Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) and Reconfiguring a Lot – Access Easements (Reciprocal).

Gympie Regional Council

The applicant provides the following details in regards to the proposal: “The proposed medical facility is proposed to incorporate the following:

• Four (4) consulting rooms; • Combined reception and waiting room; • Staff room; • Unisex disabled toilet; • 11 car parks (1 disable space); and • Access ramp.

The internal floor area is approximately 100sqm. The building is a high set dwelling and the existing configuration will remain. The side boundary setbacks of the building will be reduced by the addition of the access ramp from the car park and the supports adjacent to the driveway. However there will be only minor alteration to the external appearance of the building. Onsite parking (11 spaces) is proposed with access to Queen Street. A disable car park is proposed which will double as an ambulance bay. The area under the existing dwelling will be excavated and the dwelling will be raised slightly to enable the access driveway under the building to the parking at the rear of the site. It is proposed to provide an access connection from 3 Queen Street to the property to the rear at 68 Channon Street and this is mainly for the benefit of 68 Channon Street to allow patients to exit via Queen Street and this will have the benefit of reducing the traffic volumes on Channon Street. Signage on both properties will direct customers to use the Queen Street exit. High vehicles that don’t fit under the 3 Queen Street building will still exit via Channon Street. The properties are in the same ownership and it is proposed to retain separate titles and to formalise the access arrangements with reciprocal access and service easements over both properties. The number of employees will vary depending on workload. It is envisaged that there will be about four (4) employees. The business will be generally conducted through normal business hours 8am to 6pm. The hours of the business will be amended to suit the needs of the customers. It is anticipated that no adverse impacts should occur from the business trading for extended hours.”

Proposed Access Easements

1.3 Surrounding Land Use The surrounding land use is characterised by Housing allotments to the north, and medical uses to the south. Council has also previously approved a development application for a large medical facility, proposing similar access arrangements, on 7 Queen Street and 70-72 Channon Street (DA15779 – Duskmay Pty Ltd).

Zoning Map 2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS 2.1 Compliance with the Planning Scheme 2.1.1 Scheme Definition Under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005, Material Change of Use to establish a Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) in the Housing Zone and Reconfiguring a Lot – Access Easements, are “Code Assessable” development. 2.1.2 Planning Scheme Provisions The proposed development is considered to be an ‘Inconsistent Use’ within the Housing Zone and is assessable against the following codes outlined below. Gympie Planning Area Code Specific Outcome 1 of the Gympie Planning Area Code states that ‘the following defined uses are inconsistent uses and are not located in the Housing Zone: …d. Commercial Premises if not for medical, health, personal or related

services in the Medical Preferred Use Area.’

Development Site DA15779

Gympie Regional Council

The proposed development is not able to meet this outcome, however, given the site’s close proximity to the allotments included within the Medical Preferred Use Area; proposed retention of the existing residential character; and benefits in reducing the amount of vehicles exiting the existing medical facility on Channon Street, the proposal is considered to be an appropriate use of the site. All other aspects of the development are considered generally able to comply with the remainder of the outcomes sought from the Gympie Planning Area Code. Erosion and Sediment Control Code The development proposes to utilise the existing building on the site. Erosion and sediment control measures will be required for car parking and access arrangements. Suitable conditions have been included in the recommendation to ensure that the outcomes sought by the Erosion and Sediment Control Code are able to be met. Infrastructure Works Code Adequate infrastructure is available in order to appropriately service the proposed development. Water and Sewerage Headworks charges apply to the development and a credit for the current use of the site, ie. dwelling house is also applicable. Given that the equivalent person rate is higher for a dwelling house than a medical centre (100m2 or less), no additional Water and Sewerage Headworks charges are payable over the site. All aspects of the development are considered generally able to comply with the outcomes sought from the Infrastructure Works Code. Landscaping Code Specific Outcome 1 of the Landscaping Code states that ‘Landscaping areas are located and designed to provide attractive streetscapes and their dimensions, the density of plants and the structure of plantings are sufficient to: a. screen premises from adjoining residential uses; or, b. soften the visual impact of large, tall or bulky structures and premises; or, c. provide shade and wind protection in, and increase the visual amenity of

car parking areas.’

Gympie Regional Council

Indicative landscaping has been identified on the proposal plans and although less than the 2 metres, averaging 3 metres to all boundaries prescribed by the planning scheme, is considered to be adequate to comply with the above Specific Outcome. A condition requiring landscape plans to be submitted for approval in accordance with Planning Scheme Policy 4: Landscape Plans and Plant Species should also be included in any approval issued. Vehicle Parking and Access Code Specific Outcome 1 of the Vehicle Parking and Access Code states that ‘adequate parking is to be provided to meet the needs of occupants, employees, visitors and other users.’ Probable Solution 1(a) requires that ‘vehicle parking spaces are provided on-site in accordance with Schedule 10 Minimum Vehicle Parking Requirements’. Schedule 10 requires 5.5 spaces, plus an ambulance bay, per 100m2 of GFA to be provided for a “Commercial Premises” non-residential medical or health related facility. The dwelling house which is to be converted to a medical facility has a current GFA of approximately 100m2, resulting in a requirement for 5 on-site car spaces, plus an ambulance bay. The current proposal plan nominates 10 spaces, plus a disabled/ambulance bay, as well as suitable access and manoeuvring areas and therefore complies with the requirements of the Code. 2.2 Local and/or State Planning Policies No State Planning Policies are applicable. 3.0

3.1

PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS

The establishment of a “Commercial Premises” is generally considered to be inappropriate within the Housing Zone. However, given the proposed re-use of an existing dwelling house, close proximity to the Gympie central business district and allotments included within the Medical Preferred Use Area, the proposal is considered to retain an acceptable level of residential character and is therefore an appropriate use of the site. 3.2

Appropriateness of the Proposal

Impact on Amenity No major amenity concerns are raised by the proposal given the utilisation of the existing building and proximity to existing medical uses. Conditions relating to landscaping and fencing will be required, in order to limit the impact on the adjacent residential premises.

3.3 Flooding The site is not subject to inundation in a Q100 flood event. 3.4 Vegetation Given that the site is zoned Housing the significance of any existing vegetation is not considered to be a relevant consideration. 3.5 Site Contamination This site is not listed on the Environmental Management Register. 4.0 PUBLIC NOTIFICATION This application is Code Assessable. Public Notification is not required. 5.0 CONSULTATION

5.1 Design Services Division Report: (Manager, Major Projects – N. Weller) This engineering report is based on the GHD August 2010 Town Planning Report and additional information provided in GHD letter of 13 December 2010. TRAFFIC No traffic impact assessment was submitted. The applicant has suggested that the use will generate 13 vehicles per hour at peak and a daily flow of 100 vehicle trips per day based on Department of Transport and Main Roads’ Road Planning and Design Manual but has not addressed this impact on Queen Street or its intersections. The applicant refers Council to the Traffic Report done for DA15779.

In any event, an analysis has been conducted by Council Officers with the following outcomes:

Traffic Generator Peak v/hr Daily vte

2002 Queen Street Traffic 25 334

Proposed Use (GFA 109m2) 14 109

Existing Use (Dwelling) 1 10

68 Channon Street (Estimate) 7 50 The proposed use will result in a 50% increase in peak hour traffic on Queen Street and at its intersections with Louisa Street and Lawrence Street and a 30% increase in daily traffic at the same locations. Additional traffic will be generated by allowing traffic from 68 Channon Street to exit through this property. The additional traffic generated by this proposal does not trigger geometric upgrading of Queen Street or its intersections. The additional traffic generated by BOTH this proposal and DA15779 does not trigger geometric upgrading of Queen Street or its intersections. However the intersection of Queen and Louisa Streets has substandard sight distance by current guidelines and the September 2008 report on DA15779 indicated safety concerns with higher traffic in Queen Street and its intersections. The sight distance from Queen Street, north along Louisa Street is 54m, 12m short of the safe intersection sight distance nominated in the current Austroads Guidelines. PSP13 committed works do not include the upgrading of this intersection. The PSP13 Roadworks contribution is calculated at (109 vte – 10 vte) x $356.20 /vte = $35,264. FRONTAGE ROAD / ACCESS / CAR PARKING The proposed development fronts Queen Street, a 7.2 metre wide, sealed residential street with kerb and channel and no concrete footpath. There are no plans to widen Queen Street or provide a concrete footpath within the next fifteen years. The proposed vehicle access is in the same location as the existing access. The access driveway, car parking and movement areas should comply with AS2890. EARTHWORKS To accommodate parking and access, considerable site works incorporating retaining walls will be required as shown in the drawings accompanying the application.

Gympie Regional Council

STORMWATER / FLOODING The site is well above the Q100 major stream flood line. The proposed use will increase the impervious area on the site and increase run off. The preferred option for dealing with this increased run off is on-site retention. WATER / SEWERAGE Both services are available with adequate capacity in each. Infrastructure contributions are applicable. Council’s Trade Waste Policy is applicable. Sewerage does not traverse the site. Water supply is on the opposite side of Queen Street. OTHER SERVICES Power and telecommunications are available. Street lighting in Queen Street requires upgrading. It is recommended that a street light be erected on the pole to the north east of the subject land by a contribution of $1,000. 5.2 Health & Environmental Services The application was referred to the Health and Environmental Services Unit for comment and conditions have been included within the recommendation. 6.0 CONCLUSION The application proposes the conversion of an existing building into a Commercial Premises (Medical Facility) and the creation of reciprocal access easements, within the Housing Zone. The site is in close proximity to existing medical uses and mitigation measures are able to be conditioned in order to address any likely impacts on the amenity of nearby residences. Although the establishment of a “Commercial Premises” within a Housing Zone is identified as an “inconsistent” use under the provisions of the Cooloola Shire Planning Scheme 2005, sufficient planning grounds exist in order to support the proposed development as an appropriate use of the site. Additionally, the proposal provides an opportunity to decrease the number of vehicles exiting the existing medical centre site, onto Channon Street. The proposed development is therefore recommended for APPROVAL, subject to reasonable and relevant conditions, as outlined below.

1.2 Site Description The site is presently developed with an existing dwelling house, a large shed and two (2) smaller sheds on site. At least one of these sheds has been noted on Council’s property records as being unapproved. As the existing larger farm shed is the only structure directly related to this development application, the unapproved storage sheds are still considered to be a matter for Council’s Building Unit. The larger shed would need a re-classification as a result of this approval, as it currently is approved as a farm shed. Access to the site is gained via Tin Can Bay Road, and a gravel access track traverses Lots 1 and 2 MPH31249. The access then traverses a section of gazetted but currently unconstructed Ferguson Street. There is also a portion of land (Lot 9 MCH342) that is a ‘Reserve for Gravel’ which the applicant intends to gain access rights over through DERM. This lot did not form part of this application, and a subsequent approval for Material Change of Use would be required should resource entitlement be obtained from DERM. The access track is on a gradient of approximately 10% before reaching Lot 1 MPH5129 where the on-site activities are to be conducted. The portion of this allotment to be utilised for the transport depot is relatively flat. 1.3 Surrounding Land Uses Surrounding the site the land is predominantly zoned rural residential, however the Draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan identifies this area as Urban footprint. These allotments front Ascot Road, Quarry Close and the northern side of Tin Can Bay Road. On the southern side of Tin Can Bay Road, land is zoned Rural but will not be affected by this development application. Most properties house detached dwellings and associated outbuildings with the exception of Lot 2 MPH5129 where Eddy Smith Engineering & Cooloola Tractors and Machinery is located. 2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS 2.1 Intent of the Zone The overall outcomes the Rural Residential Zone is that residential uses on large lots with rural amenity predominate in areas proximate to Gympie; and rural amenity and surrounding rural land uses are protected by appropriate keeping of animals and establishment of home businesses. The proposal does not comply with this intent, however the Draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan identifies the subject allotments as being part of a Local Development Area (Employment) within the Urban Footprint. This identifies that this area is foreshadowed for development of industrial nature.

Gympie Regional Council

2.2 Compliance with the Planning Scheme This proposal is determined to be Code Assessable development and subject to assessment against the Gympie Planning Area Code, Erosion and Sediment Control Code, Infrastructure Works Code, Landscaping Code, and Vehicle Parking and Access Code. 2.3 Gympie Planning Area Code This proposal is for a General Industry, which is an ‘inconsistent’ use in the Rural Residential Zone of the Gympie Planning Area, however the site has been included in the Regional Plan designation for this type of development. Relevant conditions have been included to ensure compliance with lighting, noise emissions and dust.

2.4 Erosion and Sediment Control Code Relevant conditions can be imposed on any subsequent Operational Works approval that is required. 2.5 Infrastructure Works Code Council’s Design Department comments refer. 2.6 Landscaping Code Landscaping is not considered necessary as part of this proposal. 2.7 Vehicle Parking and Access Code The parking requirements for general industry are for two (2) spaces per tenancy plus 1 space per 100m2 of Gross Floor Area (GFA). The new transport depot and motor vehicle repair workshop will all operate under the auspices of Masondale Transport. The GFA of this proposal is approximately 432m2, requiring one (1) car parking space for the GFA plus four (4) for the tenancy. This equates to five (5) car parks. The applicant indicates five (5) car parks on their plan; which complies with Planning Scheme requirements. There are also areas on the site plans identified as parking areas and access and manoeuvrability areas for the trucks to be parked on site. There is an item of concern however, in that the proposed road access to Lot 1 on MPH5129 traverses land not owned by the applicant. This is, in fact unconstructed road reserve. This will need subsequent approval from DERM to traverse the road reserve for access purposes.

Gympie Regional Council

3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 3.1 Appropriateness of the Proposal The proposal is for extension to an existing use, in a rural residential area with some industrial uses being conducted in the locality. The applicant identified a lack of industrial land within the Gympie area which has also been identified by Council in the past and regional plan land use designation under the Urban Footprint. The proposal aims to extend an existing use, and is considered to be appropriate in this location. 3.2 Impact on Amenity The proposal aims to extend an existing use on site, and is well setback from adjoining properties. The access is not adjacent to any dwelling houses and the extended use will not be within any closer proximity to adjoining dwelling houses. The application is Code Assessable development and was therefore not required to be formally notified. However as a courtesy, Council made nearby landowners aware of the development application. No submissions were received from landowners directly adjoining the property; however a submission was received from a downstream property owner and his consultant engineer. 3.3 Site Access and Traffic No new access is proposed and additional traffic is not likely to be generated as a result of this use. The access across the road reserve will require subsequent DERM approval. 3.4 Car Parking It is considered that the proposed car parking proposed enables the proposal to comply with Council’s Planning Scheme requirements. The access and manoeuvrability on site have been discussed in greater detail by Council’s Design Services Division. 3.5 Flooding The site is not known to be subject to flooding; however the lead in roads may be subject to inundation. This is not considered to be a major concern as escape routes are available prior to a major event.

3.6 Landscaping No landscaping is considered warranted as part of this proposal. Significant area of vegetation buffering already exist on site. 4.0 PUBLIC NOTIFICATION The application was not required to be advertised for public comment, due to the level of assessment being Code Assessable; however Council circulated letters to nearby landowners due to the application being identified as an “inconsistent” land use. Two (2) submissions were consequently received objecting to the proposal. 5.0 INTERNAL CONSULTATION (a) Design Services Division Report: (Manager, Major Projects – N. Weller) This engineering report is based on information submitted by Martoo Consulting on 14 May 2009, and a submission to the Development Application received on 11 September 2009, and further information, including a traffic report by Opus, submitted by Martoo Consulting on 26 August 2010. TRAFFIC The OPUS Site Access Traffic Report of 8 July 2010 provides numbers and types of vehicles currently using the site together with current vehicle movements. The report gives an estimate of the number of vehicles expected within the next twelve (12) months. Using these figures, it is calculated that the use in twelve (12) months’ time will generate 48 vehicle trips per day. The development lies within the rural road contribution area of PSP13. The roadworks contribution is calculated at $54,475. FRONTAGE ROADS / ACCESS Access to the development is from Tin Can Bay Road which is under State jurisdiction. Department of Transport and Main Roads have provided their conditions. The OPUS report proposes provision of an access superlative to the Department of Transport and Main Roads conditions. The existing driveway is sealed and crosses the unconstructed Ferguson Street to an unsealed vehicle movement and parking area.

FLOODING The lower sections of Lots 1 and 2 on MPH31249 are subject to flooding. This only affects access to the development. STORMWATER MANAGEMENT The submission to the Development Application was, in part, concerned with the quantity and quality of stormwater drainage from the development. An Environmental Management Plan dated 10 June 2010 and prepared by Napier and Associates addresses only water quality associated with the Environmentally Relevant Activity (workshop and wash down facility). None of the information presented to support the application addresses the quantity or the quality of stormwater runoff actually leaving the whole site. Preliminary calculations by Council staff indicate that stormwater quantity and quality can be managed by the construction of a small detention / settlement basin at about 72 metres AHD in the gully running south west from the development. WATER AND SEWERAGE No reticulated water or sewerage will be connected to the site. OTHER SERVICES Electrical and telephone services have been provided to the site. (b) Health & Environmental Services The application was referred with Council’s Health and Environmental Services and their requirements have been incorporated into the recommendation. Decision making for this ERA was devolved to Council in this instance as it was not within the DERM jurisdiction or threshold limits.. 6.0 EXTERNAL CONSULTATION (a) Department of Transport and Main Roads A copy of the application was forwarded to this Department as a Concurrence Agency. They have issued conditional approval to this development application.

(b) Public Consultation The application was determined to be “Code Assessable” only and as such was not required to be formally notified. Advisement of the Development Application was however, circulated to nearby property owners and two (2) submissions of objection were received.

KEY POINT SUMMARY

• Application for Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to Create Three (3)

Additional Lots within the Rural Residential Zone. • Application lodged for assessment against Cooloola Shire Planning

Scheme 2005. • Development proposes to create a total of four (4) rural residential

allotments, with areas between 6,000m2 to 8,245m2. • The site adjoins existing rural land, which should be considered when

addressing amenity concerns with smaller lots adjoining rural land; • Recommend that a PRELIMINARY APPROVAL be issued. Report: (Planning Officer – M. K. Matthews) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application seeks Council’s approval for Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to allow the creation of three (3) additional rural residential allotments within the Rural Residential Zone at Belvedere Road, Veteran. 2.0 SITE DESCRIPTION

The site has an area of 2.72 hectares and is generally a regular shaped allotment. The land has approximately 120 metres of frontage to Belvedere Road, which is a Council maintained road, constructed to a bitumen standard. The subject site slopes at approximately 7% to the rear of the site leading towards Banks Creek. The site contains an existing dwelling, domestic outbuildings and a dam at the front of the site. The site is identified as containing Good Quality Agricultural Land. 3.0 PROPOSAL The proposal comprises reconfiguring the land to create three (3) additional rural residential allotments, which range in size from approximately 6,000m2 to 8,245m2.

4.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 4.1 Appropriateness of the Proposal The site is zoned for rural residential development, however there are significant issues regarding likely agricultural conflicts with the adjoining rural allotment. These issues will need to be addressed through appropriate subdivision design and lot layout prior to a development permit being issued. The Draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan and Draft State Planning Regulatory Provisions, introduced on 1 October 2010 are also a relevant consideration. Under the regulatory provisions, the land is included in the Rural Living Area, however the property immediately to the west has been included in the Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area, hence the intent is to preserve the existing rural characteristics. Given that the site’s western boundary forms the interface between the rural residential and rural areas, the proposal in its current form, which incorporates no buffer or screening areas, is not considered an appropriate use of the site.

Colour Draft State Planning Regulatory Provisions Map (the grey hatched area denotes Rural Living, the blue hatched area denotes Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area) 5.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS 5.1 Compliance with the Planning Scheme The proposal is determined to be ‘Code Assessable’ under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Planning Scheme 2005 and is subject to assessment against the Gympie Planning Area Code, Reconfiguring a Lot Code, Infrastructure Works Code, Landscaping Code and the Resource Areas Code. Gympie Planning Area Code The site does not conflict with the intent of the Gympie Planning Area Code, however consideration must be given to the adjoining Rural allotment. The boundary between the Rural Residential and Rural zonings in the Planning Scheme is also the boundary between the Rural Living Area, and the Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area under the Regional Plan.

Gympie Regional Council

Reconfiguring a Lot Code Provisions for rural allotments include: - Minimum 6,000m2 lot size; - Minimum frontage of 50m per allotment; - House sites on slopes no greater than 15%; - Building envelopes of 1,000m2, above the Q100 flood level and able to

accommodate suitable on-site effluent disposal; however - There is an area of non-compliance with the code whereby the access

handle exceeds 100 metres in length. It is considered to be a favourable trade-off however to have compliant lot sizes, setbacks etc. than a compliant access handle. In this proposal, it is considered that this is a favourable outcome over alternative possible layouts.

Given the adjoining rural-residential area and the likely community expectation, the proposed creation of rural residential allotments is considered to be an appropriate use of the site. There should however, be significant buffering between the subject site and the adjoining Rural allotment to protect the amenity of both landowners. This buffer would impact on possible building site for the western allotments of the proposed subdivision. Landscaping Code Landscaping requirements are not generally imposed on Rural/Rural Residential developments; however in this case it is considered warranted for buffering of the adjoining rural property. This is similar to a previous approval issued under DA16507. This was essentially approved as a small lot rural subdivision with buffering required as a condition of approval as the allotment was surrounded by rural lots, and is consistent with the separation requirements outlined in the guidelines for SPP 1/92. Infrastructure Works Code Design Services Division requirements have been incorporated into the recommendation. Resource Areas Code The land is identified as containing patches of both Class A and Class B Good Quality Agricultural Land; however the site forms part of an existing rural residential area. The zoning of the land as Rural Residential is considered to have addressed the issue relating to Good Quality Agricultural Land, as Council implemented the minimum lot sizes for this zone on the basis that enough rural land existed outside of the zone.

Page 63: 2011-02-02 Planning & Development Commitee Meeting Mintues · March 2010, Planning and Development Committee) “Recommend that Council undertake a review of the Op en Space and Recreation

Gympie Regional Council

The consideration still remains to protect the adjoining rural parcel of land from adverse impacts from this development, as well as serving to protect the future amenity of landowners on new parcels to be created by the imposition of appropriate buffering between the two distinct land uses of rural and rural residential. A buffer of 40 metres between the uses is most effective, and a 10 metre landscaping buffer as an acoustic and aesthetic screen, with the remaining buffer to protect against rural activities such as chemical spray etc. impinging on the newly established rural residential allotments. 5.2 Local and/or State Planning Policies State Planning Policy 1/92 relating to Good Quality Agricultural land is reflected in the previous assessment of the proposal under the Resource Areas Code. No other State Planning Policies apply to the subject application. 6.0 CONSULTATION 6.1 Internal (a) Design Services Division This Design Services Division provided advice regarding the proposal. (b) Public Submissions As the proposal is Code Assessable development, it was not required to be formally advertised or publicly notified. There was however one (1) submission received objecting to the proposal. SUBMISSION 1

Issue Planning Comment 1. Draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan. The subject site is located on the interface between the Rural Living Area and the Rural Landscape and Production Area.

1. The subject site is within the Rural Living Area under the Draft Wide Bay Burnett Regional Plan. Therefore it is not prohibited in this regard, and the proposal complies with planning scheme minimum lot sizes for the Rural Residential zone. The recommendation incorporates a buffer to protect the impacts of both land uses and zones from future adverse impacts.

Page 64: 2011-02-02 Planning & Development Commitee Meeting Mintues · March 2010, Planning and Development Committee) “Recommend that Council undertake a review of the Op en Space and Recreation

Gympie Regional Council

2. State Planning Policy 1/92: Development and Conservation of Agricultural Land. The subject site is located in proximity to Rural uses and is mapped as containing Good Quality Agricultural Land itself.

2. The zoning of the site as Rural Residential acknowledges that Council essentially made this allotment eligible for future possible subdivision. The possible future ‘reverse amenity’ concerns raised are a valid point, whereby an owner of one of the new allotments to be created may complain about being located nearby a rural allotment. The recommendation incorporates a buffer to protect the impacts of both land uses and zones from future adverse impacts.

3. 2005 Cooloola Shire Council Planning Scheme. (i) Easement widths, site visibility distances, potential safety hazards. (ii) Concern is also raised regarding the suitability of the lot sizes as it is not keeping with the existing development pattern in the area. (iii) Future amenity concerns from the Cooroy-Curra bypass, North Coast Rail Line and Corbet’s Sawmill.

3. (i) Council’s Design Services Division do not have any concerns regarding the surrounding road network. (ii) Whilst the application may not strictly comply with the development pattern in the immediate vicinity, it does meet the minimum lot sizes outlined in Council’s Reconfiguring a Lot Code. (iii) Future amenity concerns are not considered to be a major concern for three (3) additional rural residential lots and the application did not trigger any form of concurrence agency referral in this regard.

4. Strategic Cropping Land. It is indicated that future state government legislation will aim to ensure that the valuable cropping land resource is not lost by over-development of land nearby to rural allotments. This is another concern relating to development nearby the rural and rural residential interface.

4. The recommendation incorporates a buffer to protect the impacts of both land uses and zones from future adverse impacts.

7.0 CONCLUSION The application proposes a form of development within an existing rural residential area; however the current subdivision layout is considered to be inconsistent with the surrounding development pattern and may cause future conflict with the adjoining rural allotment.

It is therefore recommended that a Preliminary Approval for Reconfiguring a Lot be issued over the site with an application for a Development Permit to be sought incorporating a subdivision layout demonstrating a minimum buffer area of 40 metres and 10 metres of dense landscaping between the adjoining rural allotment to the west (Lot 18 MCH5573); and suitable building envelopes, appropriately set back from the adjoining rural property, in order to avoid agricultural land use conflicts.

P07/02/11 Moved: Cr J. Watt Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté Recommend that Council, as Assessment Manager, issue a PRELIMINARY APPROVAL over Lot 17 MCH5573 located at 68 Belvedere Road, Veteran, for Reconfiguring a Lot with an application for a Development Permit to be sought incorporating the following design details:

• a subdivision layout, demonstrating a minimum buffer area of 40 metres and a dense 10 metre landscaping strip between the adjoining rural allotment to the west (Lot 18 MCH5573); and suitable building envelopes, appropriately set back from the adjoining rural property, in order to avoid agricultural land use conflicts.

Further, that Council officers meet with the applicants to explain the rationale for Council deciding to issue a preliminary approval.
