Notes for completing this form

Section 261 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 prescribes when an application is a properly-made application. Note, the assessment manager has discretion to accept an application as properly made despite any non-compliance with the requirement to provide mandatory supporting information under section 260(1)(c) of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009

Applicant details

Where the applicant is not a natural person, ensure the applicant entity is a real legal entity. Question 1

Schedule 3 of the Sustainable Planning Regulation 2009 identifies assessable development and the type of assessment. Where schedule 3 identifies assessable development as “various aspects of development” the applicant must identify each aspect of the development on Tables A, B and C respectively and as required.

Question 6

Section 263 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 sets out when the consent of the owner of the land is required for an application. Section 260(1)(e) of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 provides that if the owner’s consent is required under section 263, then an application must contain, or be accompanied by, the written consent of the owner, or include a declaration by the applicant that the owner has given written consent to the making of the application. If a development application relates to a state resource, the application is not required to be supported by evidence of an allocation or entitlement to a state resource. However, where the state is the owner of the subject land, the written consent of the state, as landowner, may be required. Allocation or entitlement to the state resource is a separate process and will need to be obtained before development commences.

Question 7

If the premises is listed on either the Contaminated Land Register (CLR) or the Environmental Management Register (EMR) under the Environmental Protection Act 1994 it may be necessary to seek compliance assessment. Schedule 18 of the Sustainable Planning Regulation 2009 identifies where compliance assessment is required.

Question 10

The Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Act 1991 prescribes when the portable long service leave levy is payable.

The portable long service leave levy amount and other prescribed percentages and rates for calculating the levy are prescribed in the Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Regulation 2013.


Question 10a

The portable long service leave levy need not be paid when the application is made, but the Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Act 1991 requires the levy to be paid before a development permit is issued.

Community Safety Design Principles

(16) Surveillance and Sightlines

P1 Premises provide opportunities for informal surveillance from surrounding buildings and land uses. Note: Ways of showing compliance are as follows: (i) Windows in buildings overlook pedestrian routes, open space areas and carparks. (ii) No blank building facade is presented to any street frontage. (iii) Street level windows are provided in buildings fronting onto public spaces and movement routes.

No solution specified. Not applicable. The Home Based Business is located within the existing Dwelling House at 93 Victor Avenue Glenella and will not inhibit informal surveillance in any way.

P2 Where located adjacent to public areas, premises are designed to permit surveillance of public areas.

No solution specified. Not applicable. The Home Based Business is located within the existing Dwelling House at 93 Victor Avenue Glenella and will not inhibit informal surveillance in any way.

P3 Buildings and street addresses in urban areas are easily identified.

No solution specified. Not applicable. The Home Based Business is located within the existing Dwelling House at 93 Victor Avenue Glenella. The address for the Dwelling House is clearly shown.

P4 Premises for uses other than dwelling houses and dual occupancy, are illuminated at night to: (i) maximise personal safety of site users; and (ii) minimise opportunities for attack by hidden persons. (iii) provide lighting along access routes, in building entrances, site entries, car parking areas and other movement areas used after dark.

No solution specified. Not applicable. The Home Based Business is located within the existing Dwelling House at 93 Victor Avenue Glenella. The Hair Salon will utilise the existing street lighting and lighting associated with the existing Dwelling House.

P5 Visibility is provided into stairwells, elevators, car parks, lobby entrances and bicycle parking facilities.

No solution specified. Not Applicable. The proposed Development does not involve stairwells, elevators, car parks, lobby entrances and bicycle parking facilities.

P6 Premises and their surrounds do not include: (i) ‘blind’ corners (including on stairs, in corridors or other situations where movement can be predicted); (ii) sudden changes of grade on pathways which reduces sightlines; (iii) concealment spots (unless they can be secured after hours); and (iv) pedestrian tunnels, excepting that where unimpeded sightlines or the absence of concealment points cannot be reasonably achieved, equipment (such as security mirrors) and good lighting is provided to enhance visibility. (v) Potential concealment areas (i.e. dead-end alleys) are restricted or locked after hours. (vi) Where a concealment spot is unavoidable, there are aids to visibility such as convex mirrors and good secure lighting. (vii) Concealment spots such as: (A) dark areas adjacent to a main/designated pedestrian routes; (B) private dead-end alleyways; (C) indentation in fencing or walls; (D) gaps in the streets such as entrances to interior courtyards and recessed doorways; and (E) areas that are isolated after dark; are not located on the premises.

No solution specified.

P7 Building entrances: (i) are clearly defined;


(ii) are well lit and face the street; (iii) do not create concealment spots; (iv) provide clear sightlines from the building foyer so that occupants can see outside before leaving the building; (v) have lobbies visible from the exterior; and (vi) have staff entrances, if separate, which are well lit and maximise opportunities for informal surveillance and for clear sightlines.

P8 Landscaping is designed and maintained to provide informal surveillance and clear sight lines on accessways and to other public spaces.

S8 “Vulnerable premises” provide landscaping designed to promote safety including: (i) planting which does not obscure doors and windows overlooking public spaces and isolated areas; (ii) shrubbery and low-level planting associated with footpaths which does not exceed 0.5m in height where abutting pavements; (iii) trees in vulnerable settings which do not have branches below 1.5m; and (iv) hard landscaping elements such as low fencing and walls (below 1.2m) which guide pedestrians and vehicles along designated paths.

(17) Safe Movement and Access

P9 The design of premises provides for unimpeded sightlines, particularly along pedestrian and bicycle routes.

S9 All barriers (including landscaping features) along bicycle and pedestrian routes are visually permeable (i.e. can be easily seen through to reduce concealment points).

P10 Car parking areas are: (i) designed to optimise informal surveillance and illumination, and to minimise unlawful access; (ii) well lit to enable visibility of all external edges and routes providing access to the car park; (iii) designed to minimise instances of large numbers of cars being co-located (over 100 cars in a single block). If more than 100 cars, more than one entry / exit point is provided so that the car park does not become an entrapment area.


P11 Underpasses and overpasses are designed and located to reduce opportunities for crime, so that:


(i) pedestrians are able to see what is in an underpass or tunnel and at the end of it before entering; and (ii) signs at each end of an underpass indicate where it leads and an alternative route to use at night.

P12 Underpasses are wide enough to accommodate both pedestrian and cycle traffic, (Note: Council will refer to the provisions of AUSTROADS Guide to Traffic Engineering Practice Part 14- Bicycles). ]


P13 The design and location of laneways and alleyways promotes community safety.

S13.1 Laneways are straight and have more than one entrance. S13.2 Unnecessary access to buildings from laneways is avoided.

(18) Building Design and Lighting

P14 Buildings contribute positively to the enhancement of public safety and security.

S14.1 Ramps and elevator entrances are located in areas which are not isolated. S14.2 Lifts are located within a secure entrance, and incorporate graffiti and vandal-resistant measures (i.e. a fully glazed and enclosed vestibule area at the exit to the lifts). S14.3 Loading and storage areas are well lit or can be locked after hours. S14.4 Parking spaces are allocated near the building entry for employees working after hours. S14.5 Enclosed or underground car parks can only be accessed from inside the building or through a security system. S14.6 All windows, particular those at street level are secure, without creating a ‘fortress-like’ appearance (i.e. avoid solid roller shutters).

P15 Lighting is provided which: (i) increases safety and security in and around the premises; (ii) considers vegetation, in both its existing and mature forms, or other elements that may have the potential to block out light; (iii) illuminates inset spaces, access/egress routes car parking areas and signage; and (iv) supports visibility for pedestrians, as well as road users.

S15 No specific solution. Note: Council will refer to the following as guidance in assessment of compliance: Security lighting is consistent with Australian Standard S 4282 (1997) (The Control of Obtrusive Effects of Outdoor Lighting. Lighting of pedestrian and bicycle movement routes, public spaces and outdoor signage in public spaces is to the minimum Australian Standard of AS1158 (Public Lighting Code).
