• Demolish the existing community building on Block 22 Section 51 Holt (to the rear of Kippax Fair) and construct a new community building on part Block 5 and road reserve Section 88 (to the south of the Kippax Library).
• Demolish the existing skate ramp to the rear of the Kippax Fair and construct a new skate ramp in the open space located at the corner of Moyes Crescent and Flack Street.
• Construct a new road connecting Moyes Crescent to Hardwick Crescent to include a footpath for pedestrian access and sufficient space for cyclists. It should also accommodate buses, bus turning and potentially bus stops adjacent to the existing tennis courts.
• Demonstrate that the proposed development will make no net difference to urban heat.
DV361 proposes amendments to the Territory Plan Map as follows:
• Holt section 52 block 13 – Commercial CZ3 Services zone to PRZ1 urban open space zone; and
• Holt section 51 blocks 49 and 70 – Commercial CZ2 Business zone to the PRZ1 Urban Open Space zone.
DV361 proposes amendments to the Holt Precinct Map and Code as follows:
• R17 and C17 – protection of solar access to public places and open spaces
• Criterion 24 – as part of the expansion of the centre the future proponent is required to conduct a range of offsite works including the upgrade of unused open space close to the centre and construction of the skate park.
(4) An outcome from the Kippax Group Centre Community Panel (Stage 3 Community Engagement) process included the possibility of turning some or all of the existing car park on Block 1 and 2 Section 89 Holt into a multi-purpose parkland (People’s Park).
The final stage of engagement sought feedback on the revisions to the draft master plan (Stage 4 Community Engagement) which resulted from the Community Panel process, including the ‘People’s Park’ proposal.
Feedback from Stage 4 Community Engagement found that the broader community did not support the proposal for the ‘People’s Park’ as it would result in a loss of the existing surface car parking that is highly valued for its convenience close to the centre.
As a result of community engagement and further investigation, the master plan recommended focussing the creation of a higher order community space (the community hub) in the central plaza between the existing Kippax Library and the proposed new community facilities building. This approach will also have the benefit of consolidating community activity in one central area.
(5) An estimate of the cost to replace car parking within the proposed retail expansion in relation to the ‘Peoples Park’ proposal has not been prepared by the Directorate. The Directorate has also not been provided with an estimate by any potential developers.
