CR12.137 PROPOSED MODIFICATIONS TO CLANCY'S FISH BAR<br />
PURPOSE OF REPORT:<br />
To seek approval (as the Landlord) for building modifications at Clancy's Fish Bar, City<br />
Beach to incorporate a new cool room and freezer.<br />
BACKGROUND:<br />
Clancy's Fish Bar lease an area <strong>of</strong> 1763 m² from the <strong>Town</strong> at a base rent <strong>of</strong> $79,553 per<br />
annum, plus threshold rent based on turnover over the threshold. The lease expires March<br />
2031.<br />
Following completion <strong>of</strong> the fit out and alteration works for the café at Clancy's Fish Bar<br />
(northern section <strong>of</strong> the premises), which opened for business on 18 December 2011, it was<br />
noted that two portable temporary cool rooms remained on site. It was anticipated that the<br />
two portable cool rooms would be removed once the building fit out and alterations had been<br />
completed.<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> issued a notice to the Directors <strong>of</strong> Clancy's Fish Bar notifying them to remove the<br />
two temporary cool rooms and subsequently met with the Director's to discuss the issue,<br />
where it was proposed to construct a permanent cool room and freezer, the subject <strong>of</strong> this<br />
report.<br />
DETAILS:<br />
Since taking over operations, Clancy's have doubled the turnover and now require an<br />
additional cool room and freezer space for their operations. They propose to construct a cool<br />
room and freezer to seamlessly integrate into the existing structure, utilising the same<br />
building materials.<br />
The <strong>Town</strong> has been provided with drawings on 29 May 2012 (see attached) for approval by<br />
<strong>Council</strong> under the lease and also to seek approval from the Western Australian Planning<br />
Commission under the Metropolitan Region Scheme.<br />
The modifications are to be constructed within the boundary <strong>of</strong> the existing lease area and in<br />
this regard will have no impact over the existing lease agreement.<br />
In addition, Clancy's have expressed a desire to undertake modifications to the car park,<br />
footpath and landscaped areas forming the service area <strong>of</strong> the building to provide improved<br />
amenity. However, the <strong>Town</strong> has suggested deferring any planning until a master plan for<br />
the area is completed. This will be undertaken in conjunction with the Surf Club and<br />
commercial facilities redevelopment project.<br />
The application is supported as it would not detract from the amenity, is contained within the<br />
lease area and will assist the operator to maintain a satisfactory level <strong>of</strong> service.<br />
