COUNCIL MINUTES TUESDAY 27 NOVEMBER 2012 DV12.130 LOTS 154, 155, 156 (186,-190) CAMBRIDGE STREET, WEMBLEY - AMENDED PLANS (CONSULTING ROOMS TO DAY SURGERY) SUMMARY: The Town has received an application to include a hospital (day surgery) within a development at Nos. 186-190 Cambridge Street, West Leederville. An application for a four storey mixed use development (36 consulting rooms and 6 multiple dwellings) at the subject site was granted planning approval by Council at its meeting held on 27 April 2010. This approval has since been extended (expires May 2013). An application for a building permit for the building has not yet been submitted. The current proposed plans show the first floor which has been approved for six tenancies (12 consulting rooms) modified to a day surgery unit. The primary issue for consideration with this application is the provision of an on-site parking and in particular, requirement for the payment of cash-in-lieu for the parking shortfall. The proposal to change use of the first floor of the development from consulting rooms to a 28 bed day surgery reduces the overall shortfall in parking provision 23 bays to 15 bays. However, for reasons outlined in this report, it is recommended that the original cash-in-lieu charge of $162,500 remain. It is also proposed that the applicants be given direction on an alternative approach to providing for the buildings access needs, in accordance with the draft, revised Parking Policy included in this agenda for adoption to advertise. This alternative approach requires the inclusion of parking/storage and end-of-trip facilities for motorcycles, scooters, gophers as well as bicycles.

COUNCIL MINUTES TUESDAY 27 NOVEMBER 2012 (iii) (iv) (v) (vi) preparation and implementation of a Bin/Waste Management Plan indicating the storage method and collection details prior to the issue of the building licence to the satisfaction of the Town; a Construction Management Plan being submitted detailing how the construction of the development will be managed in order to limit the impact on the surrounding area. The plan will need to ensure that adequate space is provided within the subject site for the parking of workers’ vehicles on site and how traffic management will be undertaken. The Construction Management Plan shall be submitted and approved by the Town prior to the issue of the building licence; a Parking Management Plan being submitted detailing the operation of the car park including car parking not being accessible to the public after hours in relation to events at Subiaco Oval, the operation of staff, visitor and residential bays, reciprocal rights and general traffic flow; the operation of, and adherence to, the Parking Management Plan; (vii) any signage on site being subject to a separate development application; (viii) a maximum of thirty-six (36) practitioners operating from the premises at any one time; (ix) (x) (xi) 1.5 metre by 1.5 metre truncations being provided at both corners of the easternmost grade level vehicular exit; the applicant to pay $4,500 to the Council for the installation of speed humps and marking of Elverd Lane; the rear (north) facing windows of the first and second floor consulting rooms being screened to a minimum height of 1.6 metres above the respective finished floor levels to prevent overlooking of the properties to the rear. Details to be provided at building licence stage; (xii) the applicant paying a cash in lieu contribution of $162,500 to the Council, to be held in reserve for future parking improvements in the vicinity of the subject site; (xiii) the western section of the rear wall of the first floor to be brought back into line with the rear walls of the ground floor and second floor to the satisfaction of the Town. Planning approval was issued on 4 May 2010. The approved plans show two basement levels of parking, ground floor (four tenancies) with parking at the rear, first floor (six tenancies, store and discharge lounge area for the adjoining day surgery at No. 178 Cambridge Street), second floor (seven tenancies), and third floor (six, two bedroom apartments). Council approved a shortfall of 23 parking bays (required: 150 bays, provided 127 bays), on the condition that a cash in lieu contribution of $162,500 is paid to offset this shortfall. The Committee discussion suggested a figure of $7,500 per bay, however, the final figure of $162,500 (see condition xii above) equates to $7,065.22 per bay. On 29 November 2011, an application was submitted to extend the planning approval issued on 4 May 2010. Unless otherwise provided, under Clause 42 (2) of the Town Planning Scheme, approval is valid for two years. The reason for the request was to allow additional time to meet the sales requirements due to the prevailing economic climate, finalise the project and complete the documentation for a building application. The plans submitted with the application showed minor changes to the tenancies but similar overall floor areas and the H:\CEO\GOV\COUNCIL MINUTES\12 MINUTES\NOVEMBER 2012\B DV.DOCX 16
