1       Introduction

1.1     Declaration of pecuniary interests, significant non-pecuniary interests and less than significant non-pecuniary interests

The provisions of Chapter 14 of the Local Government Act, 1993 (the Act) regulate the way in which Councillors and designated staff of Council conduct themselves to ensure that there is no conflict between their private interests and their public role.

The Act prescribes that where a member of Council (or a Committee of Council) has a direct or indirect financial (pecuniary) interest in a matter to be considered at a meeting of the Council (or Committee), that interest must be disclosed as soon as practicable after the start of the meeting and the reasons given for declaring such interest.

As members are aware, the provisions of the Local Government Act restrict any member who has declared a pecuniary interest in any matter from participating in the discussion or voting on that matter, and requires that member to vacate the Chamber.

Council’s Code of Conduct provides that if members have a non-pecuniary conflict of interest, the nature of the conflict must be disclosed. The Code of Conduct also provides for a number of ways in which a member may manage non pecuniary conflicts of interest.

Recommendation

It is recommended that Committee Members now disclose any conflicts of interest in matters under consideration by the Planning and Development Committee at this meeting.

EXECUTIVE Summary

Following is a list of development applications approved under the delegated authority of Council.

Link To Delivery/OPerational Plan

The recommendation in this report relates to the Delivery/Operational Plan strategy “13.4 Our Environment – Monitor and enforce regulations relating to City amenity”.

Financial Implications

Council has been advised that as a council included in the NSW Government’s merger proposals under consideration by the Office of Local Government since referral on 6 January 2016, Council must comply with the merger proposal period guidelines issued under S23A of the Local Government Act 1993. The guidelines instruct Council it should expend money in accordance with the detailed budget adopted for the purposes of implementing the Delivery/Operational Plan for the 2015/16 year.

Any expenditure outside the adopted budget requires the identification of clear and compelling grounds and must be approved by Council at a meeting that is open to the public. The guidelines indicate the resolution of Council for increased expenditure must specify the reasons why the expenditure is required and warranted.

If increased expenditure is greater than $250,000 or 1% of the Council’s revenue from rates in the preceding year, whichever is the greater, Council is required to exhibit the increase to the budget and consider comments received.

Council must also avoid entering into contracts or undertakings where expenditure or revenue is greater than $250,000 or 1% of the Council’s revenue from rates in the preceding year, whichever is the greater, unless the contract or undertaking is as a result of a decision or procurement process commenced prior to the merger proposal period or where entering into a contract or undertaking is reasonably necessary for the purposes of meeting the ongoing service delivery commitments of the Council or was previously approved in the Council’s Delivery/Operational Plan.

EXECUTIVE Summary

Application lodged

9 September 2016

Applicant/s

Mr N Baig

Owner/s

Ali Husain Pty Limited

Land description

Lot 12 DP 582844 - 302-304 Summer Street, Orange

Proposed land use

Food and Drink Premises

Value of proposed development

$50,000

Application has been made to modify development consent DA 18/2015(1) by modifying Condition (19) of the current consent to allow trading to 3am on Friday mornings through to Sunday mornings, inclusive.

Council has previously modified the consent to allow trading to 3am on a temporary basis. That temporary period has now lapsed and the hours of operation have reverted to a 12 midnight finishing time.

Advice has been sought and received from the Local Area Command of the Police who advise that within the trial period there were no observations of increased rowdy or criminal behaviour in the locality. However, the Police have expressed some misgivings to the granting of an unlimited consent.

Council has three options with regard to this matter:

1        Retain the hours of operation as is, that is refuse the proposed modification and retain a 12 midnight finish.

2        Grant consent for the extended hours without any further trial.

3        Grant consent for a further trial period to partially address the misgivings of the NSW Police.

The report recommends or supports Option 3 as the preferred outcome.

Link To Delivery/OPerational Plan

The recommendation in this report relates to the Delivery/Operational Plan strategy “13.4 Our Environment – Monitor and enforce regulations relating to City amenity”.

Financial Implications

Council has been advised that as a council included in the NSW Government’s merger proposals under consideration by the Office of Local Government since referral on 6 January 2016, Council must comply with the merger proposal period guidelines issued under S23A of the Local Government Act 1993.


 

The guidelines instruct Council it should expend money in accordance with the detailed budget adopted for the purposes of implementing the Delivery/Operational Plan for the 2015/16 year.

Any expenditure outside the adopted budget requires the identification of clear and compelling grounds and must be approved by Council at a meeting that is open to the public. The guidelines indicate the resolution of Council for increased expenditure must specify the reasons why the expenditure is required and warranted.

If increased expenditure is greater than $250,000 or 1% of the Council’s revenue from rates in the preceding year, whichever is the greater, Council is required to exhibit the increase to the budget and consider comments received.

Council must also avoid entering into contracts or undertakings where expenditure or revenue is greater than $250,000 or 1% of the Council’s revenue from rates in the preceding year, whichever is the greater, unless the contract or undertaking is as a result of a decision or procurement process commenced prior to the merger proposal period or where entering into a contract or undertaking is reasonably necessary for the purposes of meeting the ongoing service delivery commitments of the Council or was previously approved in the Council’s Delivery/Operational Plan.

Recommendation

That Council modifies development consent DA 18/2015(1) for Food and Drink Premises at Lot 12 DP 582844 - 302-304 Summer Street, Orange pursuant to the conditions of consent in the attached modified Notice of Approval to permit an additional 12 month trial of late opening hours.

 

further considerations

Consideration has been given to the recommendation’s impact on Council’s service delivery; image and reputation; political; environmental; health and safety; employees; stakeholders and project management; and no further implications or risks have been identified.

SUPPORTING INFORMATION

THE APPLICATION/PROPOSAL

Application has been made to modify development consent DA 18/2015(2) to modify condition (19) of the consent so as to again allow extended trading hours to 3am, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. The applicant is seeking to modify the condition so that the trial period limitation be completely removed, but has also indicated that they would be prepared to accept a further trial should that be considered appropriate.


 

ISSUES

It should be noted by Council that the extended hours were already given temporary approval on a 6 month trial basis, with the intent that the potential of late night misbehaviour be monitored and reported upon by the Local Area Command at the end of that period. The Police advise that in that period there have been no reports or observations of increased late night rowdy behaviour in the vicinity of the premises, although the Police are still not in favour of extended trading hours on a permanent basis.

The trial period for the extended hours (to 3am Thursdays to Sunday morning) has now expired, such that the hours now revert to the original 12 midnight finish. Condition (19) of the development consent as currently configured has the following requirements:

Without the prior approval of Council, the hours of operation of the premises shall not exceed 10.00am to 10.00pm Sunday to Wednesday inclusive and 10.00am to 12.00am Thursday to Saturday inclusive.

This consent relates to the operation of the shop itself. There is also a separate Section 68 approval (not a development application as such, but an approval granted under the Local Government Act), relating to the use of the footpath outside the premises for outdoor dining, which restricts the use of the footpath for the consumption of food to the "end of business each day". Should Council amend the development consent as requested, the hours of use for the Section 68 component will also change.

The applicant is seeking to alter Condition (19) of the development consent to:

Without the prior approval of Council, the hours of operation of the premises shall not exceed 10.00am to 10.00pm Sunday to Wednesday inclusive and 10.00am to 3.00am Thursday to Saturday inclusive.

Given the continued misgivings of the NSW Police Service to the extended trading hours (which are considered to be related to how well the business is run, and hence the quality of management of the premises), it is recommended that the proposed modification be supported on a trial basis of 12 months. Section 80A (10B) allows for consent to be temporary with respect to hours of operation.

The condition as recommended would read:

Without the prior approval of Council, the hours of operation of the premises shall not exceed 10.00am to 10.00pm Sunday to Wednesday inclusive and 10.00am to 3.00am,Thursday to Saturday for a 12 month trial period from 1 November 2016 (extending into Sunday mornings), following which the approved hours will revert to 10.00am to 10.00pm Sunday to Wednesday inclusive and 10.00am to 12.00am Thursday to Saturday inclusive, except if further modification of this condition is made pursuant to Section 96 of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act and consented to by Council.


 

MATTERS FOR CONSIDERATION

Section 96(1A) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EPAA) states:

A consent authority may…modify the consent if:

(a)     it is satisfied that the proposed modification is of minimal environmental impact, and

(b)     it is satisfied that the development to which the consent as modified relates is substantially the same development as the development for which the consent was originally granted and before that consent as originally granted was modified (if at all), and

(c)     it has notified the application in accordance with:

(i)      the regulations, if the regulations so require, or

(ii)     a development control plan, if the consent authority is a council that has made a development control plan under section 72 that requires the notification or advertising of applications for modification of a development consent, and

(d)     it has considered any submissions made concerning the proposed modification within any period prescribed by the regulations or provided by the development control plan, as the case may be.

In relation to (a), the approved development has previously been the subject of an amendment that permitted the extension of hours to 3am on certain days. This earlier amendment was processed as a modification pursuant to Section 96(2) (other modifications). The current proposed change is identical to those earlier changes except that the trial period would be extended to 12 months. The changes now being considered have previously been shown to be of minor environmental impact by the application and diligent observance of strict operating restrictions. As there are no adverse effects arising from the extension of hours to 3am, it is considered the matter can now be dealt with as a Section 96(1A) (minor environmental impact) category of modification of consent. As such, provided the premises during these extended hours is run in accordance with the operating restrictions, there will be only minor environmental impacts arising from the proposed modification.

The principal difference between the two categories arising is that a Section 96(2) modification requires notification, whilst a Section 96(1A) does not have such a requirement.

In relation to (b), there are no prescribed standards to apply as to what constitutes "substantially the same development". In this case there is a change in the hours of operation and some change to the nature of the business after 12 midnight such that its land use classification changes from a “food and drink premises" to a "take away food and drink premises". Such changes, in terms of the substantive operation of the premises, are considered minor. It is considered that the proposed development after the implementation of the changes would remain substantially the same development.


 

In relation to (c) and (d), there is no statutory requirement to notify a modification in the classification of Section 96(1A). However, given that for the last amendment of consent it was deemed useful to seek the views of the NSW Police Service, this was again carried out for this proposed amendment. For the first trial the NSW police did not raise any objection to the trial extension of hours, and agreed to providing incident results within the trial period. For this further extension of the trial period, the NSW police report that:

It is conceded by police that during the trial period over the last 6 months there has been no reported significant acts of violence occurring within the premises however Police attached to the Canobolas Local Area Command still have significant concerns to the granting of this development consent to trade past midnight”.

In effect, the police are wanting to apply a precautionary principle to the issue. There is no evidence at hand that the extended hours have in any way contributed to an increase in criminal or antisocial behaviour. However, it is reasonable to be cautious in the extension of hours past midnight, particularly for activities that might attract intoxicated people to loiter in the CBD when it would be preferable for them to go home.

Pursuant to section 96(3) of the EPAA 1979:

In determining an application for modification of a consent under this section, the consent authority must take into consideration such of the matters referred to in section 79C(1) as are of relevance to the development the subject of the application.

The relevant matters are considered below.

PROVISIONS OF ANY ENVIRONMENTAL PLANNING INSTRUMENT s79C(1)(a)(i)

Orange Local Environmental Plan 2011 (as amended)

Clause 1.2 - Aims of Plan

The broad aims of the LEP are set out under subclause 2. Those relevant to the application are as follows:

(a)     to encourage development which complements and enhances the unique character of Orange as a major regional centre boasting a diverse economy and offering an attractive regional lifestyle,

(b)     to provide for a range of development opportunities that contribute to the social, economic and environmental resources of Orange in a way that allows present and future generations to meet their needs by implementing the principles for ecologically sustainable development,

(f)      to recognise and manage valued environmental heritage, landscape and scenic features of Orange.

The application is considered to be consistent with aims (a), (b) and (f) as listed above.


 

Part 2 - Permitted or Prohibited Development

Land Use Zones

The initial development was approved under the provisions of Orange LEP 2011. The subject land is zoned B3 Commercial Core. From 10am to 12 midnight the principal land use remains the same as was approved, namely a food and drink premises. From 12 midnight until 3pm, the nature of the proposed use will be changed such that it is more appropriate to describe the premises at those times as a take away food and drink premises. This does not change the dominant use of the premises as a food and drink premises.

Food and drink premises is defined under the standard instrument as:

premises that are used for the preparation and retail sale of food or drink (or both) for immediate consumption on or off the premises, and includes any of the following:

(a)     a restaurant or cafe,

(b)     take away food and drink premises,

(c)     a pub,

(d)     a small bar.

Food and Drink Premises are a type of Retail Premises - see the definition of that term in this Dictionary".

Take away food and drink premises are a subcategory of food and drink premises, with the specific definition being:

premises that are predominantly used for the preparation and retail sale of food or drink (or both) for immediate consumption away from the premises. Take away food and drink premises are a type of food and drink premises.

Food and drink premises and take away food and drink premises are permissible with consent in the zone. Because take away food and drink premises are included in the more general definition for food and drink premises, the change in use is within the original land use approval.

Objectives of the B3 Commercial Core Zone

·    To provide a wide range of retail, business, office, entertainment, community and other suitable land uses that serve the needs of the local and wider community.

·    To encourage appropriate employment opportunities in accessible locations.

·    To maximise public transport patronage and encourage walking and cycling.

·    To promote development that contributes to the role of the Orange CBD as the primary retail and business centre in the City and region.

The development is not inconsistent with the objectives of the zone.

All matters under the LEP have been previously considered in the original report. There are no aspects of the proposed modification requiring further consideration in this report.


 

PROVISIONS OF ANY DEVELOPMENT CONTROL PLAN s79C(1)(a)(iii)

Development Control Plan 2004

All aspects of the proposed development relating to the DCP, including its objectives for the central business district, have been previously considered under the principal assessment. The development as now proposed to be modified has no impact on that previous assessment.

PROVISIONS PRESCRIBED BY THE REGULATIONS s79C(1)(a)(iv)

The proposed development is not inconstant with any provisions prescribed by Regulation.

THE LIKELY IMPACTS OF THE DEVELOPMENT s79C(1)(b)

Social Impacts

The applicant has not submitted a social impact statement with this application. The applicant is proposing the hours of operation to be 10am to 10pm Monday to Wednesday and Sundays, and 10am to 3am Thursday to Saturday. It is the latter that has the potential to result in unacceptable social impacts within the main street, with intoxicated patrons leaving licenced venues and participating in anti-social behaviour. This has been previously alluded to in the comments of this report.

NSW Police Responses

NSW Police, through the Canobolas Local Area Command, provided comment in relation to the original development application that was opposed to the 12 midnight to 3am trading component. The first amendment of the consent revisited this issue of extended trading hours, with the NSW Police adopting an approach of no objection to the extended hours. Moreover, they do not at the present time have any data to hand to suggest that the extension of hours approved on a trial basis has had any effect in terms of increased drunken, antisocial or criminal behaviour that could reasonably be linked to the operation of this premises.

The Police advise that for the current modification as a matter of policy they are opposed to late night trading after 12 midnight; however, if Council is of a mind to permit the extended hours once again, the police recommend the imposition of operating conditions previously recommended. These conditions were imposed in the previous modification of consent and would be re-applied to the current modification.

Economic Impacts

The development has the potential to result in positive economic impacts through the potential for employment generation and provide for additional competition within the food industry within the City.

THE SUITABILITY OF THE SITE s79C(1)(c)

Council has previously determined that the site is suitable for the proposed development There are no aspects of the site to indicate that it would be unsuitable to accommodate the modified development.


 

ANY SUBMISSIONS MADE IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE ACT s79C(1)(d)

The proposed development is not defined as advertised development under the provisions of the LEP, and as such no formal exhibition of the application was required. The NSW Police were, however, advised of the proposed modification and have made a submission to Council, which has been considered.

PUBLIC INTEREST s79C(1)(e)

The proposed development is considered to be of minor interest to the wider public due to the relatively localised nature of potential impacts.

SUMMARY

The proposed modification is permissible with the consent of Council. The proposed development complies with the relevant aims, objectives and provisions of Orange LEP 2011 (as amended) and DCP 2004. The modification is consistent with the provisions of section 96(1A) of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979. A section 79C assessment of the proposal indicates that the development is acceptable in this instance. An amended draft Notice of Approval is attached.
