Legislative Assembly for the ACT: 2000 Week 7 Hansard (10 July) . . Page.. 2465 ..
The proposal to release Section 33 by way of direct grant to the Club, at market value, was suggested by the Burley Griffin LAPAC, not the Club. It is still supported by the LAPAC as the best way of ensuring the best outcome for the local community.
Question 5
Planning for Section 33 has been subject to extensive negotiations and presentations with the community and the Burley Griffin LAPAC.Early proposals showed a total of 60 units over both Section 33 and part Section 36. As a result of public consultations by the Club, the proposal is now refined down to a total of 52 units. Twenty eight units (from 32) are proposed to be constructed on Section 33. These will be accessed off Newdegate Street.
Twenty units are proposed to be on individual crown leases of a size similar to the existing neighbourhood, and reflect the existing suburban character by being generally single storey. Eight two storey townhouses are also proposed to be included on Section 33, and their proposed location would allow an existing overland waterflow arrangement at the lower part of the site to be maintained.
PALM has supported the proposed development on Section 33. It ensures a consistent and high quality level of planning and design, and provides an attractive frontage to the existing neighbourhood.
The development proposal will be required to be consistent with the Territory Plan, with specific objectives for the design of the development covered in the lease and development conditions and a planning control plan. The development will also need to meet the NCA's development control plan for Adelaide Avenue. This will include a strongly defined landscape zone between the houses and Adelaide Avenue.
