8.3 PROPOSED NAME CHANGE - MIRANI MUSEUM

Author Manager Community Development and Libraries

Purpose

To seek Council approval to change the name of The Mirani Shire Bicentennial Museum to The Pioneer Valley Museum in Mirani.

Background/Discussion

The Mirani Shire Bicentennial Museum was opened on 13 September 1988 by the then Premier of Queensland, Mike Ahearn. Built with the assistance of a Bicentennial Grant, the Museum was principally designed to house the Jack Williams Collection which was purchased by the Mirani Shire in 1986. Whilst the Council owned the Collection and maintained the building, a volunteer group, The Friends of the Mirani Museum, was formed to carry out the day to day management of the Museum and its Collection. Donations of items poured in from both past and present residents to such an extent that the Shire Council extended the Museum building in1992, doubling its display capacity. In the mid 1990’s, the Mirani Shire Council provided office space and storage facilities by relocating a demountable building to its current site. With the amalgamation of Councils in 2008, the Mackay Regional Council assumed ownership of the Collection and the buildings. The Friends of the Museum continues in its role as voluntary managers of the Collection. It is the aim of the Pioneer Valley Community Action Network (PV CAN) to encourage the various communities within the Valley to work in a co-operative and cohesive manner and to foster a strong community spirit. The Friends of the Museum support the PV CAN in its aims. It has been thought that the name of the Museum may indicate that it is a Museum for Mirani only. Because of this, the Friends of the Museum request that the name of the Museum be changed to The Pioneer Valley Museum at Mirani. It is felt that this name better reflects the purpose of the Museum, i.e. to collect, maintain and record the history of the Pioneer Valley and its people. The Friends also feel that the proposed name change would also give all of the

residents of the Valley ‘ownership’ of the Museum and may encourage a sense of pride in this most valuable asset. A secondary reason for the proposed name change is the Mirani Shire no longer exists and the formal name is now inappropriate.

Consultation and Communication

Consultation has been undertaken between the Friends of the Museum and the Pioneer Valley Community Action Network. Discussion has also been held with other museums in the region, who are all supportive of the name change.

Resource Implications

There are no resource implications associated with this request.

Conclusion

The Friends of Mirani Museum have a great commitment to their Collection and Museum. It would be most appropriate to try to instil a sense of pride and ownership to residents in the Valley which it is hoped would occur by reflecting the Pioneer Valley in the name of the Museum.

THAT the name of the Mirani Shire Bicentennial Museum be changed to The Pioneer Valley Museum at Mirani

Recommendation: Approved Subject to Conditions

ASSESSMENT OF APPLICATION Purpose The applicant has lodged a Material Change of Use for primarily a residential development over part of the site in three, four-storey buildings. Additional uses of Caretakers Residence, Catering Shop and/or Shop over 7 tenancies are also included in the proposed complex. These retail uses are confined to ground floor tenancies of Building 2, closest to Kay Court. The allotment is located along the south side of Kay Court, with frontage to Heaths Road (refer to Attachment A – Locality Plan). The application is impact assessable and received no properly made submissions. The application is recommended for approval subject to conditions. Background The site has been the subject of several applications in recent years. A combined MCU and RoL was lodged in 2003 to subdivide the site into 10 high density residential (HDR) allotments. This application was withdrawn officially on 12 February 2009. A further application under section 3.1.6 of the Integrated Planning Act 1997 was lodged in 2007 for Preliminary Approval to Override the Planning Scheme Rural zoning for HDR zoning over the site. This application was withdrawn on 23 June 2008. In December 2009 Council approved DA-2009-262 to relocate the existing Outdoor Sales Premises over part of the site for the display and sale of caravans.

Page 10: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10302

It is the applicant’s long term vision to establish a motel, restaurant and conference centre on the area to be occupied by the Outdoor Sales Premises. The Outdoor Sales Premises are temporary and approval has been granted for an initial 4 year period with the option of seeking an extension of approval each successive 4 years subject to Council approval. Any extension of approval is linked to the progress of development which is the subject of this proposal. As a result of internal discussions it was directed that in order to support the application despite the conflict with the Planning Scheme codes it is necessary for the open space along the riverfront to be transferred to Council in order to preserve this riparian corridor for public use. However, this comes with inherent risks to Council in relation to the maintenance of the revetment walls in the erosion prone area and the liabilities included with such. In addition, the water easement is also required to be dedicated to Council fee simple. Subject Site and Surrounds The site is generally triangular and the longest arc-shaped boundary of approximately 500m is to the south west, shared with the Pioneer River. This boundary commences 40m from the Ron Camm Bridge road reserve to Heaths Road and effectively runs parallel to Kay Court. The site has approximately 150m frontage to Heaths Road however this is a slim strip of land up to 20m deep and no access to the property is gained from this area. To the north, the site fronts onto Heaths Road and Kay Court for approximately 370m with McDonalds and WOW buildings opposite. The third boundary to the east is shared with existing outdoor sales premises of North Jacklin (previously Honeycombs) and Warwick Holland Motors. The site is improved by a dwelling house, associated outbuildings and sealed access driveway. Part of the southern boundary, shared with the river has an approved revetment wall constructed. The approval of DA-2009-262 brings the total area used as Outdoor Sales Premises to 2,170m2 which leaves 2.0103ha as the site area of this application. The land is burdened by two easements. Easement C is 120m long and 13.5m wide and serves as the access road to the adjacent outdoor sales premises of North Jacklin and Warwick Holland. This easement runs from Kay Court along the eastern boundary. Easement B contains an existing Council 840mm dia water main. The easement runs through the allotment from Kay Court to the river and is 6m wide. Proposal The applicant proposes to develop a higher density residential precinct on part of the site and in association, some commercial activities on the ground floor along with a Care Takers Residence on the ground floor of building 4. The application also includes open space, landscaping and car parking provisions to compliment the precinct. The residential portion involves 79 residential units, two of which are dual key resulting in a total of 81 keys. The units are of varying sizes and range from single to three bedroom. The units are distributed over three residential buildings of four levels nominated as buildings 2, 3 and 4 (refer to the Attachment B: Proposal Plans – Sheet 1 - Location Plan). The proposal also involves a basement with car park storage and sufficient basement car parking for one space per unit. Balance car parking is partially basement and partially above ground.

Building 2, which is closest to Kay Court, proposes some ground floor commercial uses. Seven tenancies have been included for which Shop and/or Catering Shop uses are proposed. Total Retail/Commercial GFA is 449m2. The Care Taker’s Residence is located in Unit 1 on the ground floor of building 4 which is closest to the river. The proposal includes 152 car parking spaces distributed both above ground for the shops and as basement car parking for the units. The total car parking numbers are in accordance with Schedule 2 of the Planning Scheme.

PLANNING SCHEME ASSESSMENT Overview The site is zoned rural and therefore a proposal of this nature is not generally supported by the Planning Scheme, however, the site is surrounded by other urban land uses, principally retail and outdoor sale type activities. The site is located conveniently and is within existing infrastructure networks. The proposal in impact assessable and therefore triggers assessment against the Mackay City Planning Scheme in its entirety. As reflected in the number of overlay codes applicable to the parcel, its shape, burden of the two easements, proximity to a State Controlled Road and within the Coastal Management District, the site does present significant constraints for development. The town planning report accompanying the proposal acknowledges that there is conflict with the scheme, however offers that the report and supporting information demonstrates that the site constraints can be overcome and therefore the parcel is suitable for urban purposes.

Page 12: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10304

While the proposal is inconsistent with the scheme, assessment and the supporting documents show that the proposal does not prevent achievement of the Desired Environmental Outcomes (DEOs). Applicable Codes The subject site is zoned Rural and affected by several overlay codes. The applicable codes are: The Mackay Frame Locality Code; The Rural Zone Code(Mackay Frame Locality); The Retail and Commercial Code; The Multiple Dwelling Units, Accommodation Units and Dual Occupancy Code; The Environment and Infrastructure Code; The Coastal Management and Biodiversity Overlay Code; Landscape Character Overlay Code (Image Corridor); Flood and Inundation Management Overlay Code; and Acid Sulfate Soils Overlay Code As the proposal is acknowledged to conflict with the zone codes, therefore no detailed assessment of those codes is considered resourceful, however additionally an assessment has been made of the proposal against the Higher Density Residential Zone code and the Urban Residential Zone Code to identify any issues. The site is practically unable to be used for rural purposes and as all required infrastructure is available to the allotment, it logically forms part of the urban footprint of the precinct. The assessment focuses on the protection of environmental elements and the achievement of the overall outcomes and DEOs. 1. Desired Environmental Outcomes The desired environmental outcomes of the Mackay City Planning Scheme are separated into four major categories of biodiversity, economic, cultural, amenity and infrastructure themes. Below is a overview of each of the four categories with comments against the DEOs relevant to this proposal.

(a) Biodiversity and Habitat/ Natural Features

(i) significant natural features1 are conserved and their values are not compromised in order to sustain ecological processes and maintain biodiversity in the City for present and future generations.

(ii) adverse effects on the natural environment including remnant vegetation,

coastal and inland wetlands, habitat and biodiversity, clean air, and water resources are minimised or prevented for their greenhouse, environmental health and amenity implications.

(b) Cultural Heritage & Landscape Character

(i) the aesthetic and amenity values of significant cultural heritage places and areas, as well as notable features of landscape character, are retained and enhanced for the benefit of present and future generations

Page 13: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10305

(ii) places of cultural heritage are recognised

Comment: The environmental and landscape preservation considerations of the DEO’s are achieved through the proposed condition requiring the dedication of the open space corridor land and the DERM conditions of approval relating to prohibition of vegetation clearing. Further environmental considerations for water quality will form part of the Operational Works assessment. It is recommended that the developer be required to construct the pedestrian access way along the open space corridor in order that this natural asset remains publicly accessible and the wider community can enjoy the amenity value of this significant natural feature.

(c) Economic Development

(xiii) mixed use development and higher intensity residential development is located within the City Centre and possibly at transport nodes and some of the tourism nodes.

Comment: The economic development theme contains DEOs which serve to protect economic resources from incompatible or constraining development. This proposal does not impede the achievement of those outcomes and particularly does not impede the function of the commercial sub-regional centre. The outcome (xiii) presented above confirms that where Higher Density Residential projects are not located in the CBD the secondary preference is for them to be located at a transport node. The proposal is located within access of the public transport routes and major transport corridor.

(d) Amenity and Community Well-Being

(i) a wide range of affordable and accessible housing is available which is suitable for the climate, meets the needs of the City's population and is convenient to community facilities, employment and recreation opportunities.

Comment: The proposal includes 34 single bedroom units, 28 two bedroom units and 20 three bedroom units of which one is the Caretakers Residence. It is considered that the proposal provides a range of units sizes meets the changing demographics of the region. All units have sufficient open space, large openings and balconies and cross ventilation is demonstrated. The site is efficiently located in relation to road and transport networks, the CBD, Mater Hospital and the Mt. Pleasant sub-regional centre employment node.

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10306

(e) Infrastructure and Urban Growth (ii) the sequence of urban growth within the City is based on achieving the most

efficient and equitable use of land and making greatest use of the existing network of development, transport and community infrastructure.

(iii) new development in the City is directed and consolidated into areas presently

serviced or areas able to be serviced efficiently and economically. (iv) ‘in sequence’ urban growth occurs in the following pattern:

urban consolidation occurs within the existing urban areas, particularly in the McCready's Creek, Goosepond Creek and Pioneer River (Urban) precincts of the City; and

Comment: Notwithstanding the zoning conflict, it is considered that if the proposal is confined to the developable area of the site, natural features are appropriately protected (as is demonstrated through the assessment and the conditions recommendations), that the proposal does present efficient use of land resources in the urban footprint area. Any infrastructure deficiency’s due to the increased load on the network incurred by the project will be addressed through the conditions of approval to be completed by the developer at no cost to Council.

2. Mackay Frame Locality Code and Goosepond Creek Precinct

Generally, the proposal is supported by the Overall outcomes of the Mackay Frame Locality Code as follows:

“(b) out of sequence urban residential growth occurs only when:

(i) there is insufficient comparable land within the City to meet the needs of the City’s population growth, based on historical growth rates over the preceding five (5) years and on forecast growth rates over the next five (5) years;

(ii) the land is physically suited for urban residential purposes and can be

serviced with development infrastructure economically and efficiently; (iii) development of out of sequence land will not result in an unsustainable

demand for development infrastructure, community facilities and services; and

(iv) development of the land will not diminish the amenity, biodiversity, habitat,

landscape or heritage character values of the City.

(d) urban development, particularly for residential purposes, is limited to land unconstrained by excessive slope, inundation by flooding, high risk of land slip or

Page 15: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10307

bushfire hazard, proximity to major infrastructure and high impact activity areas including major transport routes and infrastructure.”

Comment: The land has significant constraints to development, however the proposal has been confined to the areas of the allotment which are unconstrained and therefore suitable for development. The zoning of the site as rural, favours rural uses, however rural uses are not practical or desirable in this location. It is considered that whilst it may appear out of sequence, allowing efficient use of the development portion of the site is considered a logical extension and is complimentary to the surrounding commercial activities. Further, the land is, or can be provided with the necessary infrastructure for the proposed development to proceed. Conditions of approval nominate the necessary upgrade work which is to be completed to cater for the increased capacity on the infrastructure network. The proposal has approval from the DERM for development in the Coastal Management District and 3rd Party advice was sought from the Pioneer River Improvement Trust (PRIT) in order to protect the biodiversity, habitat and landscape of the Pioneer River frontage. Proposed conditions of approval require the river frontage land portion to be dedicated to public ownership as Open Space to ensure its continued protection.

“(s) development of land fronting a State-controlled road or rail corridor, or land adjacent to or in the vicinity of the Mackay Airport, includes design and siting measures which effectively mitigate the operational impacts of such infrastructure, including noise, diminished air quality and possibly vibration;”

Comment: The proposal has been approved by the Department of Transport and Main Roads (TMR) which has conditioned a monetary contribution to the State Controlled Road network for the upgrading of the Heaths Road/ Kay Court intersection to a left in left out configuration with a roundabout.

(w) new development in the Locality is: (i) in keeping with the role and function of the road network in terms of its scale

and intensity; (ii) in step generally with the planned development of major road transport

infrastructure; (iii) for intense forms of activity such as centres or major industries, situated at

key locations within the road transport network; (iv) accessible to public transport or accessible to convenient and effective

linkages with public transport; and (v) generally in keeping with the planning principles of the Mackay Area

Integrated Transport Plan and Shaping Up - A Guide to the Better Practice and Integration of Transport, Land Use and Urban Design Techniques;

Page 16: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10308

Comment: Despite the zoning conflict for the site, it is considered that this site logically forms part of the urban footprint of the precinct and therefore the proposal is seen as complimentary to the existing surrounding uses, road network and transport system. The proposal has been conditioned to contribute to upgrading the road network due to the increased demand resulting from the approval of the proposal.

(bb) riparian vegetation and other areas of remnant vegetation are protected from encroaching urban development, or is developed in a manner consistent with the relevant overlay code;

Comment: Advice has been sought from PRIT, and the proposed conditions of approval require the river frontage portion of the site be returned to the state with Council as trustee to protect the riparian area.

(5) in addition overall outcomes for the Goosepond Creek precinct are:

(b) development in the Mt. Pleasant sub-regional centre supports and complements the role of the City Centre by servicing:

(i) primarily the needs of residents in the northern parts of the City; and (ii) some needs of those residing in other parts of the City as well as in

adjoining local government areas to the north of the City.

(c) as the second major focus for shopping and entertainment in the City, new development in the Mt Pleasant sub-regional centre is in line with changing commercial trends and practices and:

(i) incorporates a range of uses which recognise the role of a sub-regional

centre; (ii) maintains the amenity of adjoining land uses; (iii) is contained within its current zoned areas; (iv) provide access to a range of transport infrastructure (public bus

services, taxi services, private passenger vehicles, pedestrian movements and bicycles) in convenient and safe accessible locations; and

(v) maintains the efficiency of the Bruce Highway corridor.

Comment: The proposal supports the sub-regional centre by providing smaller support retail activities, particularly those of Catering Shop within an existing commercial area. The residential

Page 17: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10309

component of the site is considered to make efficient use of the site, provide additional housing choice for the North Mackay area complimenting the primary role of the sub-regional centre and surrounding lower density housing options. The design and orientation of the residential units protects the amenity of future residents while capitalising on the river outlook. Conditions of approval will ensure amenity issues are addressed, particularly noise from the state controlled road network, by implementing the recommendations of the noise report provided with the application. 3. Retail and Commercial Code

This code is relevant for the 7 tenancies proposed for the ground floor of building A. The proposal is generally compliant with the code, save for some practicalities of refuse collection for the complex as a whole which appears to be combined with the residential areas. Conditions of approval will request the garbage collection points to be confirmed.

4. Multiple Dwellings, Accommodation Units and Dual Occupancy Code

The proposal complies with this code with the exception of the height of the buildings and one point of building 4 which does not achieve boundary set back requirements. The setback is not of concern as it only involves a small section of building 4 on the eastern boundary and the discretion is considered minor. Some elements of the code are incomplete, such as landscaping and fencing, which will be conditioned to comply with the code at the time of Operational Works. Density Using the current development site area the site density equates to one dwelling per 245m2 or 41 dwelling per hectare. This is a lower density than the current Higher Density Residential zoning levels of 1 dwelling per 200m2 but denser than the minimum lot size for the Urban Residential Zone of 300m2. Height The Multiple Dwelling Units Code requires a height of 12m. The planning report provides for an alternative solution to the code proposing buildings to 13m. Building 2 has a proposed height of 13m to the highest point and buildings 3 and 4 are 12.5m. The roof is generally flat and this height accommodates 4 levels. It is noted however that the Commercial and Retail Code does not have a particular height outcome for the designated centres. The proposed height from ground floor slab to ceiling for level 3 is 11.2m. The surrounding uses to the east are single level offices for the outdoor sales yard and as such the proposed buildings would be prominent in the landscape particularly when viewed from the Ron Camm Bridge. However the buildings will be set back approximately 80-90m from the highway road edge, whereas the Mater Hospital main building which is a similar height is set back 50m. The proposal requests a height of 1m greater than that permitted in the Higher Density Residential Zone and given the setbacks to both the river and the highway of approximately 25-30m and 80-90m respectively it is considered that the height is acceptable.

5. Higher Density Zone Code and Urban Residential Zone Code Overall there are no conflicts with the proposal and the above codes. The codes focus on infrastructure being provided or available to the site, the protection of residential amenity and not placing residents at risk through development of unsuitable sites. It is considered that these elements have been addressed through attention to the DEO’s and the Environment and Infrastructure codes.

6. Environment and Infrastructure Code The ability for the proposal to provide all required infrastructure has been demonstrated in the application, however some upgrade works will be required as detailed in the engineering assessment and conditions of approval. The details of the infrastructure provision including landscaping and storm water control will be subject to a Development Permit for Operational Works. Some elements of the code, such as landscaping, fencing, lighting, safety and security which will be conditioned to comply with the code at the time of Operational Works.

7. Overlay Codes

The site is affected by several overlay codes, namely: The Coastal Management and Biodiversity Overlay Code; Landscape Character Overlay Code (Image Corridor); Flood and Inundation Overlay Code; and Acid Sulfate Soils Overlay Code. Coastal Management and Biodiversity Overlay Code The Coastal Management and Biodiversity Overlay Code is addressed though a proposed condition requiring the open space to be transferred to the State with Council as trustee. No development is proposed within the erosion prone zone. The vegetation on the open space corridor is not permitted to be cleared per the DERM conditions of approval. Public access to the open space corridor is assured though the proposed condition of approval requiring public pedestrian connectivity to be constructed within the future open space area. It is proposed that the land and works may be credited against parkland contributions where consistent with the Parks Contribution Policy. Further to this, historically as part of applications to develop east and west along the river, this area has been given to Council such as in association with DA-2004-149. Landscape Character Overlay Code The Landscape Character Overlay concerns the small portion of the site which is affected by the Image Corridor and does not present any issues for the proposal. The Flood and inundation overlay code is addressed through limiting development to the area of the site not affected by the code and conditioning ground floor levels in accordance with Council Policy and at above Q100 levels. The site is affected by the Acid Sulfate Soils Overlay Code, but not triggered as the basement car parks are not below RL 5m AHD.

The easement protects the 840mm diameter water main and runs through the allotment north to south and continues into the Pioneer River. The easement is 6m wide. Mackay Water has given their consent to the proposal subject to conditions which will necessitate some redesign to relocate Carparking to ensure the main remained unencumbered by any structures.

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10312

Traffic and Access TMR has approved the development subject to conditions and a contribution towards the upgrading for the external access and impacted intersection of Heaths Road and Kay Court. Internally the proposal has some issues which in order to be adequately resolved requires some redesign by the applicant. Initially the applicant advised that the private access easement could not be used for access to this proposal and therefore all access from Kay Court is proposed directly adjacent to the water main easement. Subsequent to Mackay Water’s advice that the easement may not be used for any purpose and car parking must be relocated, the applicant advised that the access easement could in fact be used. Car parking has been relocated and is now present on all sides of Building 2 which is not a optimal outcome for both pedestrian access streetscape to Kay Court, amenity for residents on upper floors and overall circulation. Following the feedback it shall be conditioned that additional access to the site is provided via the easement. One access is not considered acceptable given the size and scale of the development and the site. Water and Sewer Capacity There is an existing sewer line within the allotment which is to be relocated and a water main extension is to be constructed to connect to the existing main in Heaths Road. THIRD PARTY ADVICE Council requested advice from the Pioneer River Improvement Trust (PRIT) due to the proximity to the River and also approval from Mackay Water due to the water main easement burdening the allotment. PRIT have raised no objection, but have requested that the final stormwater arrangements are submitted for approval by the trust’s foreman. REFERRAL AGENCIES DERM is a concurrence agency for the development within a Coastal Management District. The agency responded with an approval subject to conditions (refer to Attachment C of this report). The conditions stipulate that no work is to be undertaken within the Erosion Prone Zone including storm water management. Further to this, the conditions require upgrading of the revetment walls prior to any future Development Applications, including Operational Works, otherwise the Erosion Prone Area reverts to 40m landward of the plan position of mean high water springs rather than 10m landward of the upper edge of the approved revetment wall. TMR is also a concurrence agency due to the site being contiguous to a State Controlled Road. TMR have responded with approval conditions requiring the applicant is responsible for noise attenuation for the residences. TMR also levied an amount on the applicant calculated by VPDs generated to contribute towards the construction of the proposed new intersection of Heaths’ Road and Kay Court.

SUBMISSIONS The application was publicly notified in accordance with the requirements of the Integrated Planning Act 1997 and no submissions to the proposal were received. CONSULTATION The proposed conditions attached have been provided to the applicant for comment. The applicant requested clarification in relation to the calculation of some of the infrastructure contributions including a request for further credits against the Transport Network Contributions, however, their request was not consistent with the policy and so not supported. The applicant has agreed in principal to the transfer of the parkland however, finalization of the area to be dedicated is subject to further negotiation with the applicant. RESOURCES IMPLICATIONS The proposed conditions of approval include returning the water main easement to Council as a freehold parcel, which Council will then be required to maintain. Similarly the open space corridor will require inclusion in Council’s maintenance schedules once transferred to the State with Council as trustee. CONCLUSION In summary, notwithstanding the zoning conflict, there are sufficient grounds to approve the proposal. The proposal is practically within the urban footprint and supports the sub-regional centre with essential residential options. The proposal does not prevent any of the DEOs of the Mackay City Planning Scheme from being realised. The site does have considerable constraints and therefore development is limited to the unconstrained portion of the land. Key concerns of protection of the open space corridor and significant natural assets along with Council’s infrastructure assets are addressed through the conditions of approval and dedication of those land areas. Therefore, It is recommended that the proposal be approved based on the following grounds:

Officer’s Recommendation

A. THAT Council approve the application for a Material Change of Use for 81 Multiple Dwelling Units, Care Taker’s Residence, Shops and/or Catering Shop by Davkar Pty Ltd located at 7-17 Heaths Road, Mt Pleasant described as Lot 14 on SP132400, subject to the following conditions:

ASSESSMENT OF APPLICATION Purpose Council has received an application for a Material Change of Use Development Permit for an existing unlawful Transport Depot operating at 961 Homebush Road, Homebush (refer to Attachment A – Locality Plan). The application was received as a result of a Show Cause Notice issued by Council in March 2009. The Transport Depot is located on a Homebush Road cane farm from an ancillary office building and gravel hardstand of approximately 40m² and 5000m² respectively (refer to Attachment B – Proposal Plan). The proposal required impact assessment and therefore underwent public notification. Three (3) submissions were received during the public notification period, objecting to the proposed development. The proposal is for an isolated industrial use within a rural area. The application to establish a Transport Depot conflicts with the intent of the rural zoning of the site. The area proposed to be used for the Transport Depot is identified as Good Quality Agricultural Land. Further to the above, the applicant has not responded to the Information Request in full and has failed to demonstrate that there is an overriding planning need for the development on this site, as suitable alternatives exist

elsewhere. This report finds that there are no supporting planning grounds to warrant approval of the proposal despite the conflicts. The application is recommended for refusal. Background Harts Transport (QLD) Pty Ltd employs ten staff in addition to the applicant and his daughter and own and operate 24 trucks from the site. The site is improved by a small dwelling house and also a donga-style building which it is assumed acts as the business office. The business has been operating at the site since it was purchased in 2006. Refer to Attachment C – Site Photographs. A complaint was lodged with Council highlighting the fact that Harts Transport were operating a transport depot from the site at Homebush. Following investigations, it was found the applicant had established the use without development approval. Consequently, a Show Cause Notice was issued to Jeffery Hart, who is both the business and property owner in March 2009. This application has been made in response to the above Show Cause Notice. Initially lodged in June 2009 as an application for a Rural Industry, Council disagreed with this defined use and found the application Not Properly Made. This application was withdrawn and a new application lodged for a Transport Depot. In re-lodging the application, the supporting material and report was not amended to suit the new use definition and therefore considerable inconsistencies in the report refer to Heavy Vehicle Parking and possible Rural Industry, however the new application was lodged with the agreement of the applicant that the proposal was not a Rural; Industry nor was it Heavy vehicle Parking. The applicant was formally advised on 2 September 2009, that Council officers were unlikely to support a Transport Depot at the above location and subsequently, that the application should be withdrawn. The above was based on the fact that the application was not supported by a number of requirements within the Mackay City Planning Scheme. The applicant opted to proceed with the application. Subject Site and Surrounds The 20.045 hectare cane farm is located on the Homebush Road, south of Mackay approximately 15km west of the Bruce Highway. The subject site is currently used for sugar cane cultivation. The site also accommodates two dwelling houses, one ancillary shed and the Transport Depot. The depot is proposed to include an ancillary office building (existing) and 5000m² of hardstand area which is used for the parking of up to 24 trucks, as well as a number of staff vehicles. The property is located on the sealed Homebush Road where there is intermittent ribbon development, but maintains a predominantly rural atmosphere. The majority of the area surrounding the subject site is used for cane farming. Proposal The application involves the operation of a transport depot of 24 heavy vehicles from a site on Homebush Road. The business is operated from an ancillary office located on the site. There are no explicit details of how this office is constructed or its specific location. Site photographs reveal two structures towards the front of the lot. It is assumed one of these is the applicant’s dwelling house and the other is the office. Neither structure is included on the site plan. The application proposes 5000m2

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10328

gravel hardstand area used for parking the 24 trucks overnight or when not in use. The applicant has stated that approximately 20 truck movements occur per day. The trucks are used to transport cane harvesters, agricultural machinery as well as large items of mining machinery and equipment for primary producers in the Bowen Basin. The trucks range in size up to 100 tonne. The applicant has stated that the business does not service, wash down, detail nor refuel vehicles on site. THE PLANNING SCHEME The planning report accompanying the application argues extensively that the use is not industrial and that due to the rural nature of some of the machinery transported it could be considered ancillary to traditional rural activities. The report also argues that the use is akin to parking and notes that the Heavy Vehicle Parking is only Code Assessable in the Hinterland Locality. The report argues that the volume of land required for the operations forces transport operators into rural areas as industrial zoned land is neither available nor affordable. Codes Applicable to this proposal include: Hinterland Locality Code; Rural Zone Code; Industrial Code; Environment and Infrastructure Code; Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Code; and Landscape Character Overlay Code (Image Corridor). Applicable Use Definition

“Transport Depot” means any premises used for the storage of more than one bus, taxi or other small rigid truck, heavy rigid truck or articulated vehicle, including any freight in or on such vehicles. The term includes the servicing of such vehicles on the premises, and any administration of such business."

This definition clearly encompasses the proposed use of the land. It is noted that the applicant has not included vehicle servicing as part of the proposal. Alternative definitions are not suitable for this proposal and the most appropriate use definition is Transport Depot which is Impact Assessable in the Rural Zone. Desired Environmental Outcomes The overall outcomes of the codes and the Desired Environmental Outcomes of the planning scheme override the codes when determining an impact assessable application. The desired environmental outcomes of the Mackay City Planning Scheme are separated into four major categories of biodiversity, economic, cultural, amenity and infrastructure themes. Below is a summary of each of the four categories with comments against the DEOs relevant to this proposal.

"(a) Biodiversity and Habitat/ Natural Features

(iii) the use of land and resources:

Page 37: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10329

(A) takes into account the direct and indirect, short and long-term, and

cumulative consequences of a use; and (B) has regard for the multiple use and values of land and resources for present

and future generations. (vi) a balance is achieved between the conservation and use of natural resources in

order to achieve sustainable economic, social and ecological outcomes." Comment: The proposal in isolation is problematic, but when considered over the long term, approval of such an intense transport-oriented activity results in a cumulative impact on the land resource which is unsustainable. The proposal neglects the long-term protection of valuable agricultural land uses and sustainable economic development

"(c) Economic Development

(i) economic resources such as good quality agricultural land, forests, fisheries, extractive materials, water and land resources are protected from the adverse or limiting effects of proximate, incompatible activity for future ongoing use. Good quality agricultural land is made available for urban uses only with a demonstration of overriding community need.4

(xi) Rural land:

(A) is protected from incompatible land uses; (B) is maintained in agricultural use, where possible, in order to ensure the

viability of the sugar industry in the City; and (C) provides opportunities for use for a wide range of economic activities

including extractive industries, forestry, grazing, intensive animal husbandry and water supply development.

Comment: Overriding need for the activity in this location has not been demonstrated and therefore does not justify the exclusion of this parcel of GQAL as an agricultural resource. Mackay Hinterland Locality Code (Rural Zone) The 20.045 hectare site is zoned rural and a specific outcome of the rural zone is that non-rural activities do not occur. A primary reason for Council not supporting non-rural uses on rural land is that the land is not serviced or provided with the infrastructure to appropriately accommodate an industrial land use and the employees that are associated with that use. The Mackay Hinterland Locality Code states:-

“Rural areas are protected from the constraining effects of encroaching incompatible

uses and that; Non-rural activities in rural areas do not adversely affect the operation of rural uses”.

Page 38: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10330

The proposal is considered an incompatible use due to the scale and intensity, it is expected to affect the operation of rural uses in the locality through fragmentation of rural land and incompatible traffic volumes and vehicles. The code also states that new development in the locality is:-

“In keeping with the role and function of the road network in terms of its scale and intensity; and

In step generally with the planned development of major road transport infrastructure.

Due to the scale and intensity, the proposal does not protect the operational efficiency of the surrounding road infrastructure. Further, the applicant has failed to satisfactorily demonstrate that the use of this land results in a more efficient use of road transport facilities, taking into account the above mentioned requirements. The zone code reiterates further at the Overall Outcomes level and the Specific Outcomes level that:

(c) Non Rural Activities do not occur; and P5 Non-rural activities do not occur on land included in the rural zone

The proposal has been shown through the use definition that it is not a rural land use or a rural activity and therefore in accordance with the codes should not occur on rural land. Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Code The subject site is identified as Good Quality Agricultural Land (GQAL). The proposed development does not comply with the Specific Outcome P3 of the Code, which states:-

Development on land as shown on the Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Map as GQAL does not result in land taken out of agricultural use unless: i) an overriding community need for the development is demonstrated; and ii) no alternative sites are available.

The applicant has not:- established that there is an overwhelming need for an incompatible and inappropriate activity

on this particular site; adequately addressed the fact that more appropriate industrial sites exist in the locality; and

thus; not adequately addressed why the site would be more appropriately in its present location then

within an industrial zoned area. The applicant contends that the Transport Depot “provides a critical service to cane farmers in the Mackay area”. However, this does not constitute planning grounds to establish an industrial use in a rural area at the expense of Good Quality Agricultural Land. The proposal also provides service to other industries and as such could be located in an industrial area without impeding trade with rural clients. As such, there are no grounds to support this business being established on land being used for rural agriculture.

Page 39: FINAL MINUTES - City of Mackay · FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010 MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10295 ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES 1. ATTENDANCE: His Worship the Mayor, Cr C Meng (Chairperson),

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10331

Moreover the Overall Outcomes of the Code provide strict guidance to the future use of GQAL:

(2) The overall outcomes sought for the Good Quality Agricultural Land Overlay Code are to ensure:

(a) good quality agricultural land is conserved for continued agricultural use; (b) good quality agricultural land is protected from reconfiguration which fragments

otherwise productive rural land; (c) reconfiguration of lots in the Rural Zone facilitates viable and sustainable rural

land use pursuant to State Planning Policy No 1/9229 ,and (d) Agricultural uses are protected from encroachment by incompatible uses.

The subject site is identified as GQAL and is therefore intended for rural agriculture or ancillary rural uses only. The applicant has stated that the 5000m² hardstand area currently used for the Transport Depot was under cane, prior to the commencement of activity. Although the area of land used for the Transport Depot is not significant when compared to the area used for sugar cane cultivation in the region, it does represent a loss of Good Quality Agricultural Land to an industrial use that would be more appropriately located in an industrial zoned area. Further, it fragments the large and regular shaped agricultural parcel. Consequently, the proposal does not comply with the GQAL Overlay Code which is considered sufficient planning grounds for refusal Planning Need The applicant has sought to justify the proposal by asserting that there is an overriding need for development of this nature as the release of industrial land in the Mackay Region has not kept pace with the demand for land for industrial activities. Council requested that a Needs Analysis be undertaken by the applicant to demonstrate that planning need existed for additional industrial land in the Mackay City Planning Scheme area. The needs analysis highlighted that there were some constraints to the amount of available industrial land. In particular, with regards to the size required by the applicant. However, the needs analysis submitted analyses the applicant’s needs and not the overall land pool available for industrial development. It has not considered lots created, approved or under construction as requested by Council. Moreover, the report does not address the situation where if indeed more industrial land were required, would it be located on Homebush Road? It was mentioned in the report that this land ranged from $140 to $220 a square metre, thus meaning the applicant would require up to $1,000,000 to purchase an appropriate property. Such an amount is not significantly more than was paid for the subject site at Homebush Road. It is accepted that demand for industrial sites in Mackay has been strong in recent years, but an overriding planning need has not been demonstrated to justify the development of this site for industrial uses. Thus, there is not adequate need to locate out of scale and intensity industrial uses in rural areas and there is not supporting evidence that a Transport deport should be necessarily located on this particular site. INFRASTRUCTURE CONSIDERATIONS The site is not serviced by town water or sewerage services.

REFERRAL AGENCIES TMR was a concurrence agency for the application and have responded with standard conditions as Homebush Road is a State-Controlled Road. (Refer to Attachment D – TMR Approval). SUBMISSIONS The application was publicly notified in accordance with the requirements of the Integrated Planning Act 1997, and as a result of this process, three (3) jointly prepared written submissions were received. The public notification tasks were not completed in absolute accordance with the Act. That is, no sign was placed on the Zarbs Road frontage. There are no dwelling houses on this road frontage and the road reserve terminates at the cane tram line adjacent to the subject site. It can be said that no one was adversely affected by the non compliance in this instance and Council can proceed with the assessment of the application. The applicant provided written confirmation of the minor status of this road to Council on 16 March 2010. The submissions received, expressed opposition to the proposal. The principle concerns raised from the submissions are summarised and discussed below. A summary of submissions was forwarded to the applicant on 22 February 2010; however no response has been received to date for inclusion in the report.

1. Safety Concerns “The address for the proposed Transport Depot in situated on a corner in a 100kmph speed zone and has no turning lanes” “Visibility in the late afternoon on that corner is increasingly reduced as the sun sets in the west’ Officers Comments: The site is located on Homebush Road which is a State-Controlled Road and not part of the Council network. Due to the recommendation for refusal significant traffic analysis has not been undertaken, however were the proposal approved a detailed analysis of impacts from the safety perspective would be required. The surrounding land uses are unperturbed by rural-type traffic, farm vehicles and intermittent cars. This uses purports to generate 40 Vehicles per Day (vpds), comprising 10 staff to and from and 10 trucks to and from, However the proposal involves 24 trucks and the planning report describes the balance vehicles as being on extended trips over 2-3 days and discounts them from the traffic count. In effect traffic movement additional to the current rural use is estimated to be as calculated in Table 1 below: Table 1: Estimated VPDs for Proposed Transport Depot These projections result in 176 movements over a 3-day period, or an average of 59 movements per day. These estimates on do not involve office staff or the owner’s regular movements, deliveries to collection of vehicles for serving and so on that would be a regular part of the business activities. It is considered that these estimate movement are a significant increase from the expected movement of 6.5 – 10 vpds if the dwelling house remained the only traffic-generator for the lot. This constitutes a significant increase in expected traffic volumes in the area. Therefore, it is considered that the traffic impacts are insufficiently demonstrated by the applicant.

2. Establishment of the Use Unlawfully “They have set-up without regard for regulations or consultation…the area currently occupied by Harts Transport is in no way being utilized solely as a parking area for trucks serving the sugar and primary industries and are currently undertaking industrial functions more focussed at the mining industries” Officers Comments: Council issued a Show Cause Notice in response to this unlawful use and the applicant is now going through the appropriate channels.

3. Industrial Land Supply Establishment of a business on rural land because of the high cost of suitable industrial land is not acceptable…. Industrial businesses established outside the legal industrial zone have an unfair advantage …” Officers Comments: Previous discussion confirms that the applicant has not established that there is indeed a shortage of industrial land and moreover if there were a shortage, a need for this particular rural site to be converted to an industrial use. A perceived shortage or expense is not sufficient planning grounds to establish a business outside of the appropriate land use zone. 4. Not Supported by the Planning Scheme “….farming families and rural residents would be negatively impacted by the establishment of a transport depot.” “approval of the Transport Depot would undermine people’s ability to make informed decisions using the Mackay City Planning Scheme…portray a mentality of build without approval and approval will be granted.” “Harts transport yard currently physically detracts from the rural environment.’ Officers Comments: The above report demonstrates that the proposal is not supported by the planning scheme. The establishment of the use has not influenced the decision to recommend refusal of the application.

CONCLUSION The applicant has not provided any valid planning grounds to support this application. It has been demonstrated that the proposal does not satisfy multiple objectives of Council’s Planning Scheme. As a result, the application is recommended for refusal. It is recommended that Council resolve to allow a period of 6 months for the applicant to progressively cease the land use. If after 6 months the land use has not ceased, including removal of the unapproved office building, Council will commence enforcement action against the illegal land use. This period of time is considered reasonable to allow the applicant to make alternative arrangements for the Transport Depot and protect interests of the employees of the business.

Officer’s Recommendation

8.8 PROPOSED AMENDMENTS TO THE MACKAY CITY PLANNING SCHEME - AMENDMENTS 3 OF 2007- VEHICLE PARKING PROVISIONS

Author SENIOR STRATEGIC PLANNER

Purpose

To propose that Council adopt the remaining items on proposed Amendments 3 of 2007 of the Mackay City Planning Scheme, with modifications, specifically relating to Vehicle Parking Provisions, which have been held in abeyance as part of the package of amendments to the Mackay City Planning Scheme (Amendments 2 and 3 of 2007) that were gazetted on 24 April 2009.

Background/Discussion

At the Ordinary Meeting of 23 July 2008 Council considered submissions made for the proposed Mackay City Planning Scheme Amendments 3 of 2007 and resolved to proceed with Amendments 3 of 2007, with modifications (resulting from the consideration of submissions made) in accordance with Section 16 (1) of Schedule 1 of the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (IPA), with the exception of proposed amendments to the Vehicle Parking Provisions (contained with Schedule 2 of Part 12 of the Planning Scheme). The Vehicle Parking Provisions were held in abeyance for further consideration due to the number of submissions received. These items were removed from Amendments 3 of 2007, as gazetted on 24 April 2009, for reconsideration in detail at a later date.

Of the 7 submissions received for the Vehicle Parking Provisions, 3 were site-specific submissions, pertaining to specific development applications. The majority of submitters did not concur with the new proposed parking rates, although it was acknowledged that some of the current parking rates were low and often resulted in inadequate on-site parking. On 17 July 2009, proposed amendments, with modifications, were submitted to the Minister to reconsider any potential adverse effects on State Interests. On 16 February 2010 and in accordance with Section 8 (4) of Schedule 1 of the IPA, the Minister for Infrastructure and Planning advised that Council may adopt Amendments 3 of 2007 for the Mackay City Planning Scheme, with modifications, as proposed by Council (refer Attachment A). The Minister required the following final modifications: 1. Deletion of proposed Section 12.7 – City Centre Car Parking Contributions Department of Infrastructure and Planning advised that the proposed inclusion of a City

Centre Car Parking Contribution needed to be advanced through a Priority Infrastructure Plan, and not a planning scheme or planning scheme policy.

2. Inclusion of a notation in section 12.7 for Car Parking Requirements

Department of Infrastructure and Planning advised that a notation should be included in section 12.7 that states that “where calculations result in a fraction, or part of a car parking space, the required number of on-site car parking spaces is to be rounded up to the next whole number”.

It is further recommended that Council does not proceed with one of the proposed amendments, being the proposed amendments to the Multiple Dwelling Units parking rates. It is considered premature at this stage to amend the rates prior to the completion of the Residential Densities Strategy. Under Section 19 of Schedule 1 of IPA Council must, by resolution, adopt the proposed Planning Scheme amendments. As soon as practical after the amendments have been adopted, Council must publish in a local newspaper and in the Government Gazette a notice advising of the date of adoption, including the purpose and general effect of the amendments. The date of publication in the Government Gazette is the date on which Amendments 3 of 2007 for the Mackay City Planning Scheme will have force and effect and replace the current planning scheme wording. Attachment B shows amendments required to finalise this matter and to proceed to adoption of the proposed Amendments 3 of 2007. Scheme Amendment Process The process for Council to amend its Planning Schemes is prescribed in Schedule 1 of the Integrated Planning Act (IPA). An overview of the process for the Vehicle Parking amendments is as follows: In July 2007 the former Mackay City Council resolved to propose the amendments; On 26 July 2007 Council submitted the amendments to the Minister and the first State

Interest Review, which was completed in November 2007; Council considered conditions imposed as part of the State Interest Review process on 21

November 2007;

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10337

Between 14 January and 29 February 2008, amendments were publicly notified for comment in the local newspaper and were made available for purchase during the public notification period. Public meetings were held in February 2008. (The consultation period was extended until 10 March 2008 due to flooding events);

Council considered properly made submissions relating to Amendment 3 of 2007; A copy of proposed Amendment 3 of 2007 (with modifications) were provided to the

Minister for second State Interest Review in August 2008 (noting that the Vehicle Parking Provisions were held in abeyance at this stage);

A briefing to Council was undertaken on 24 June 2009 on submissions received relating to the proposed Vehicle Parking provisions;

Council submitted a copy of the proposed Vehicle Parking amendments, with modifications, to the Minister for further consideration of State Interests on 17 July 2009;

On 16 February 2010 the Minister reconsidered potential adverse effects of further amendments to State Interests and advised that Council may proceed with the adoption of Amendment 3 of 2007, with modifications, pertaining to the Vehicle Parking provisions.

Following receipt of the Minister’s advice that Council can adopt the amendments, the actions required to finalise these amendments are: Council resolves to adopt the proposed amendments; Council resolves not to continue with the amendment relating to the car parking

requirements for multiple dwelling units; Council reports back to all persons who lodged properly made submissions, explaining

how it dealt with their submission; Final amendments are published in the local newspaper and gazette; A copy of the amendments is made available for purchase and Council’s web page is

updated; A copy of the amendments is provided to the Chief Executive Officer of the Department

of Infrastructure and Planning.

Consultation

The proposed Amendments to the Scheme were subject to an internal consultation process in January 2007. Proposed amendments were presented to the former Mackay City Council for comment in February 2007, after which the amendments were subject to a second round of internal consultation and further proposed amendments presented to Council at a Briefing in June 2007. Council formerly resolved to propose the amendments at its Ordinary Meeting held 25 July 2007 and submitted for State Interest Review. A response on the first State Interest Review was received on 14 November 2007. The consultation period for submissions to the proposed Amendments 3 of 2007 were initially advertised from Monday 14 January 2008 to Friday 29 February 2008 however, the consultation period was extended until Monday 10 March 2008, due to flood events in February. Public information sessions were conducted in the Reception Room on 5 and 7 February 2008. In accordance with Section 16 (1) (b) of Schedule 1, Council considered all properly made submissions pertaining to Amendment 3 of 2007 and decided to proceed with the proposed amendments to the planning scheme, with modifications, with the exception of the Car Parking provisions.

FINAL MINUTES WEDNESDAY 24 MARCH 2010

MIN/24.03.2010 FOLIO 10338

Written correspondence was forwarded to all submitters. Submitters who had made submissions about the proposed amendments to Vehicle Parking Access and Manoeuvring Standards where forwarded written correspondence advising that these issues were held in abeyance, and that they would be advised about further action when Council decides on these matters. Amendments 3 of 2007 were gazetted and became effective on Friday 24 April 2009, with the exception of the proposed changes to the Vehicle Parking Provisions and Car Parking Requirements. A briefing for the items held in abeyance from Amendment 3 of 2007 was undertaken on Wednesday 24 June 2009, on the submissions received on the Vehicle Parking Provisions. Council’s response to the submissions received on the Vehicle Parking Provisions was submitted for second State Interest Review on 17 July 2009. On 16 February 2010, the Minister advised that Council could adopt the proposed amendments, subject to modifications (Refer Attachment A). It is proposed that the effective date for Amendments 3 of 2007 will be 23 April 2010, to allow around 4 weeks notice to the development industry about upcoming amendments. If Council adopt the proposed Amendments 3 of 2007, with modifications, the development industry will be notified of Council’s decision and the proposed date of commencement. Further correspondence will be forwarded to all submitter’s advising that Council considered each submission and how each matter was dealt with. Once the amendments are gazetted, the relevant sections of the Scheme will replace the current Mackay City Planning Scheme.

Resource Implications

Proposed Amendments 3 of 2007 for the Mackay City Planning Scheme will require planning and administrative resources to undertake and complete the administrative process to gazette the amendments.

Conclusion

The formal adoption of Amendments 3 of 2007 is required to finalise the proposed amendments and proceed to gazettal.

Purpose

To approve tender submitted for the MRC 2010-001 Sale of Land – 155A Broadsound Road, Paget.

Background/Discussion

Tenders were invited on the 25th July 2009, via Council’s website and advertised locally in the Daily Mercury, requesting submissions from persons interested in purchasing the freehold title of Lot 22 on RP 715901 (“the property”) a parcel of 405m2. The property is located to the south of the Bruce and Peak Downs Highway intersection. The following submission was received by 2.30pm 18th August 2009.

BOMA Group An initial compliance check was conducted by the Evaluation Panel to identify that the submission was conforming with the immediate requirements of the RFT. This included compliance with contractual requirements and provision of requested information. The submission progressed through to the qualitative criteria assessment on the basis that the terms and conditions and mandatory requirements of the request for tender had been met. During the evaluation the tender was assessed against the nominated qualitative criteria.

The weighting attributed to each qualitative criteria was:

Proposed use of the new reconfigured lot 35% Ability to reconfigure proponents land to land for sale 35% Price Offered 30%

The tendered Lump Sum Fixed Price is listed below.

BOMA Group $5,000.00 At the end of the assessment process, the assessment team ranked BOMA Group as the preferred tenderer.

Consultation and Communication

The evaluation of the tenders was conducted by:

Property Coordinations Officer– Property Services Contracts Officer – Procurement and Plant

Resource Implications

In accordance with previous negotiations between BOMA Group and Mackay Regional Council (Deed of Agreement attached) it was agreed to transfer (by way of Tender) the property to BOMA Group for market value less development works already undertaken by BOMA Group. BOMA Group then offered an initial tendered price of $5,000.00 for MRC 2010-001 Sale of Land – 155A Broadsound Road, Paget. Not satisfied with this initial tendered price a request was made to the BOMA Group that they provide a costing of all works completed to the property to further evaluate their offer. On 15 October 2009 BOMA Group provided the valuation and costing of works.

JD Dodds valuation of property received for $20,250.00 BOMA Group costing for removing and disposing of concrete, filling in and

compacting drainage easement for $14,084.40. BOMA Group final price for MRC 2010-001 Sale of Land – 155A Broadsound Road, Paget reads: JD Dodds valuation $20,250.00 Less works performed $14,084.40 BOMA Group balance $ 6,165.60 (includes initial submission of $5,000.00)

Conclusion

That awarding the contract to BOMA Group at the re-negotiated price of $6,165.60 represents the most advantageous outcome to Mackay Regional Council based on the ability to perform the works requested and demonstrated value for money.
