COUNCIL MINUTES<br />

28 AUGUST 2012<br />

• As part <strong>of</strong> this option, TSH will make available the on-site parking area (20 car parking<br />

bays) at the eastern end <strong>of</strong> the site for public use outside business hours and on<br />

weekends. This carpark would remain unfenced.<br />

Option 2<br />

• 97 car bays provided.<br />

• 90 degree parking provided along entire south side (verge) <strong>of</strong> Dodd Street.<br />

• Pedestrian link and landscape feature to Lake Monger removed.<br />

• No pedestrian footpath proposed on northern side.<br />

• 7.152 metre carriageway proposed.<br />

Cash In Lieu<br />

The applicant is <strong>of</strong> the opinion that there is no requirement to provide cash-in-lieu in relation to<br />

the number <strong>of</strong> bays as the condition states "….up to 100 car parking bays…..". Both options<br />

arguably provide up to 100 bays<br />

Cost Sharing<br />

TSH agrees to accept costs for design and construction <strong>of</strong> car bays in front <strong>of</strong> Telethon Speech<br />

and Hearing Centre, and <strong>Town</strong> <strong>of</strong> <strong>Cambridge</strong> funds the construction, upgrade or widening <strong>of</strong><br />

the Dodd Street carriageway.<br />

Comment<br />

Both options have been assessed against <strong>Council</strong>'s decision.<br />

Option 1 - 89 car bays<br />

This is the preferred option <strong>of</strong> TSH as it allows for the pedestrian link and landscape feature to<br />

Lake Monger to be retained. However, in respect <strong>of</strong> the decision <strong>of</strong> <strong>Council</strong>, the following<br />

points are made:<br />

• 89 bays are provided which is 11 bays short <strong>of</strong> <strong>Council</strong>s expectation <strong>of</strong> 100 bays being<br />

provided;<br />

• 90 degree parking has not been provided along the entire south side (verge) <strong>of</strong> Dodd<br />

Street between Points A and B;<br />

• Further parking could be provided on the north side (verge <strong>of</strong> Dodd Street between<br />

Points A and B;<br />

• No parallel parking has been provided on the noth side (verge) <strong>of</strong> Dodd Street<br />

This option is therefore not supported as it does not satisfy <strong>Council</strong>'s decision.<br />
