10.0 General Residential Zone
10.1 Zone Purpose
10.1.1 Zone Purpose Statements 10.1.1.1-To provide for residential use or development that accommodates a range of dwelling types at suburban densities, where full
infrastructure services are available or can be provided.
10.1.1.2-To provide for compatible non-residential uses that primarily serve the local community.
10.1.2 Local Area Objectives This zone applies for land at -
(a) Suburban residential area make efficient use of land and optimise available and planned infrastructure provision through a balance

urban setting, and is to take into account –
(i) the likely impact on residential use from the occurrence and operation of non-housing activity;
(ii) the effect of location and configuration of buildings within a site on –
a. apparent bulk and scale of buildings and structures;
b. opportunity for on-site provision of private open space and facilities for parking of vehicles;

(g) an ordered pattern of lots and a well-connected internal road network
9 | P a g e
10.2 Use Table
10.3 Use Standards
10.3.1 Discretionary Permit Use Objective: Use in this zone that is a discretionary permit use is to service and support the routine requirements of the local community
Performance Criteria P1 Discretionary permit use must –
(a) be consistent with local area objectives;
(b) be consistent with any applicable desired future character statement; and
(c) minimise likelihood for adverse impact on amenity for use on adjacent land in the zone
Discussion
The proposal is not inconsistent with the local area objectives and is consistent with the relevant desired
future character statements. It does not cause an adverse impact on the amenity of use on adjacent
land within the zone.
10.4 Development Standards
10.4.1 Residential density for multiple dwellings Objective: To provide for suburban densities for multiple dwellings that:
(a) make efficient use of suburban land for housing; and
(b) optimise the use of infrastructure and community services.
Acceptable Solutions A1 Multiple dwellings must have a site area per dwelling of not less than:
(a) 325m2; or
(b) if within a density area specified in Table 10.4.1 below and shown on the planning scheme maps, that specified for the density
area.
Discussion
As demonstrated in the submission plans; Unit 1 = 380m2 and Unit 2 = 420m2 satisfying A1
above.
Table 10.4.1
Density area Site area per dwelling (m²)
This clause does not apply
10.4.2 Setbacks and building envelope for all dwellings Objective: To control the siting and scale of dwellings to:
(a) provide reasonably consistent separation between dwellings on adjacent sites and a dwelling and its frontage; and
(b) assist in the attenuation of traffic noise or any other detrimental impacts from roads with high traffic volumes; and
(c) provide consistency in the apparent scale, bulk, massing and proportion of dwellings; and
(d) provide separation between dwellings on adjacent sites to provide reasonable opportunity for daylight and sunlight to enter
habitable rooms and private open space.
10 | P a g e
Acceptable Solutions A1 Unless within a building area, a dwelling, excluding protrusions (such as eaves, steps, porches, and awnings) that extend not
more than 0.6 m into the frontage setback, must have a setback from a frontage that is:
(a) if the frontage is a primary frontage, at least 4.5 m, or, if the setback from the primary frontage is less than 4.5 m, not less
than the setback, from the primary frontage, of any existing dwelling on the site; or
(b) if the frontage is not a primary frontage, at least 3 m, or, if the setback from the frontage is less than 3 m, not less than the
setback, from a frontage that is not a primary frontage, of any existing dwelling on the site; or
(c) if for a vacant site with existing dwellings on adjoining sites on the same street, not more than the greater, or less than the
lesser, setback for the equivalent frontage of the dwellings on the adjoining sites on the same street; or
(d) if the development is on land that abuts a road specified in Table 10.4.2, at least that specified for the road.
Discussion
The proposed unit is setback 9.8m from the rear boundary of the front unit satisfying A1 above.
Acceptable Solutions A2 A garage or carport must have a setback from a primary frontage of at least:
(a) 5.5 m, or alternatively 1 m behind the façade of the dwelling; or
(b) the same as the dwelling façade, if a portion of the dwelling gross floor area is located above the garage or carport; or
(c) 1 m, if the natural ground level slopes up or down at a gradient steeper than 1 in 5 for a distance of 10 m from the frontage.
Discussion
The proposed garage is setback 31m from the frontage complying with A2 above.
Performance Criteria P3 The siting and scale of a dwelling must:
(a) not cause unreasonable loss of amenity by:
(i) reduction in sunlight to a habitable room (other than a bedroom) of a dwelling on an adjoining lot; or
(ii) overshadowing the private open space of a dwelling on an adjoining lot; or
(iii) overshadowing of an adjoining vacant lot; or
(iv) visual impacts caused by the apparent scale, bulk or proportions of the dwelling when viewed from an adjoining lot; and
(b) provide separation between dwellings on adjoining lots that is compatible with that prevailing in the surrounding area.
Discussion
The siting of the unit does not cause an unreasonable loss of amenity onto an adjoining lot as
demonstrated in the shadow diagrams nor cause overshadowing to the private open space of
an adjoining lot.
The dwelling unit when viewed from an adjoining lot is not visually intrusive as it is a slender
building and the lowest roof line is parallel to the rear boundary – reducing visual bulk when
viewed from that parcel of land.
The separation between dwellings is compatible with the surrounding area where unit
development is featured on various lots within the subdivisional area namely 29, 70 Katelyn
Drive as well as 23, 25 and 16 York Street satisfying P3 above.
10.4.3 Site coverage and private open space for all dwellings Objective: To provide:
(a) for outdoor recreation and the operational needs of the residents; and
(b) opportunities for the planting of gardens and landscaping; and
(c) private open space that is integrated with the living areas of the dwelling; and
(d) private open space that has access to sunlight.
11 | P a g e
Acceptable Solutions A1 Dwellings must have:
(a) a site coverage of not more than 50% (excluding eaves up to 0.6 m); and
(b) for multiple dwellings, a total area of private open space of not less than 60 m2 associated with each dwelling, unless the
dwelling has a finished floor level that is entirely more than 1.8 m above the finished ground level (excluding a garage, carport or
entry foyer); and
(c) a site area of which at least 25% of the site area is free from impervious surfaces.
Discussion
Unit 1 of the plan contains 64m2 of POS whilst Unit 2 contains 63m2. The site contains 235m2
of impervious surfaces exceeding the 25% minimum requirement satisfying A1 above.
Acceptable Solutions A2 A dwelling must have an area of private open space that:
(a) is in one location and is at least:
(i) 24 m2; or
(ii) 12 m2, if the dwelling is a multiple dwelling with a finished floor level that is entirely more than 1.8 m above the finished ground
level (excluding a garage, carport or entry foyer); and
(b) has a minimum horizontal dimension of:
(i) 4 m; or
(ii) 2 m, if the dwelling is a multiple dwelling with a finished floor level that is entirely more than 1.8 m above the finished ground
level (excluding a garage, carport or entry foyer); and
(c) is directly accessible from, and adjacent to, a habitable room (other than a bedroom); and
(d) is not located to the south, south-east or south-west of the dwelling, unless the area receives at least 3 hours of sunlight to
50% of the area between 9.00am and 3.00pm on the 21st June; and
(e) is located between the dwelling and the frontage, only if the frontage is orientated between 30 degrees west of north and 30
degrees east of north, excluding any dwelling located behind another on the same site; and
(f) has a gradient not steeper than 1 in 10; and
(g) is not used for vehicle access or parking.
Discussion
The proposal provides each dwelling with POS that is in one location and each exceeds 24m2.
Each POS space has a horizontal dimension exceeding 4m and is accessed directly off the
living room to each dwelling (unit 1 the living room to existing alfresco area and unit 2 to the
living room).
Each POS are is located on the northern aspect as per the shadow diagrams. The site is flat
and the areas are not used for parking as per the submission plans.
10.4.4 Sunlight and overshadowing for all dwellings Objective: To provide:
(a) the opportunity for sunlight to enter habitable rooms (other than bedrooms) of dwellings; and
(b) separation between dwellings on the same site to provide reasonable opportunity for daylight and sunlight to enter habitable
rooms and private open space.
Performance Criteria P1 P1-A dwelling must be sited and designed so as to allow sunlight to enter at least one habitable room (other than a bedroom).
Discussion
The orientation of the site requires the discretionary pathway. The new unit enables sunlight
to penetrate into the living room area via the northern access door and window.
12 | P a g e
Acceptable Solutions A2 A multiple dwelling that is to the north of a window of a habitable room (other than a bedroom) of another dwelling on the same
site, which window faces between 30 degrees west of north and 30 degrees east of north (see Diagram 10.4.4A), must be in

Part E Codes
E1 Bushfire-Prone Areas Code – Not Applicable
The proposal is not a hazardous use, a vulnerable use or a subdivision and therefore is not subject to
the provisions of the Code.
E2 Airport Management Code
The proposal is located within the areas defined within the Air Navigation Services – Aircraft Operations
Surfaces on planning scheme maps and is therefore applicable to the code.
E2.5 Use Standards
E2.5.1 Exposure to Aircraft Noise
The proposal is located approximately 1.55 miles (2.5 km) (‘as the crow flies’) north west of the main
runway. This approach to the runway is seldom used as the predominant wind conditions on the north-
west coast of Tasmania are westerly and this approach is only used in easterly conditions.
Assuming the typical glideslope of 3° to the approach to the runway and a rate of decent of 300 ft per
nautical mile to remain on that glideslope; the aircrafts glideslope should be 136 ft (41m) above the
proposed building on approach (factoring in site elevations AHD to the AHD of the airport).
The predominant commercial aircraft used at the Burnie Airport is the twin turboprop engined Saab
340 passenger aircraft (of all versions) used by Regional Express Airlines (REX) and the aircraft
features “active noise control” as a standard feature of the aircraft. The engine noises of the Saab 340
are:
Fly-over noise: 78.5 EPNdB
Sideline noise: 85.9 EPNdB
Approach noise: 91.5 EPNdB
Source: Saab Aircraft Datasheet 340C
Whilst there is no noise decrease or sound drop per meter, there is a sound level drop of 6 dB per
doubling of distance. In calculating noise attenuation by distance (point source), the Sound Pressure
Level (SPL) at 136 m from the source is 78.5 dB(A) which supports figures described in the Saab Aircraft
Datasheet 340C figures for fly-over noise (predominant exposure in westerly conditions).
The Saab 340 series (and all aircrafts of this size) are a ‘Group B’ sized aircraft with an approach speed
of 91 – 120 knots (168.532km/h - 222.24km/h). Therefore the time of exposure to aircraft noise is
approximately one minute per event – not hours of continuous exposure that could cause harm.
The effects of continuous dB exposure for site is between 80-90dB which could cause damage over a
continuous 8 hour exposure. Therefore; given the seldom approach noise on easterly conditions where
damage is like to occur with continuous expose – the likelihood of aircraft to cause harm to human
health or to interfere with the amenity of the site is extremely unlikely.
19 | P a g e
E2.5.1 Exposure to Aircraft Nose
Objective a) The likelihood for aircraft noise to cause harm to human health or to unreasonably interfere with the amenity of non-
airport use is to be minimised; and b) Non-airport use is to minimise likely interference or constraint on the operation of an airport
Acceptable Solutions – A1
(a) The use must be – i. An ‘Acceptable’ use class for the applicable ANEF noise exposure level as shown on the Table to this clause;
or ii. An ‘Acceptable’ use class subject to conditions for the ANEF noise exposure level as shown on the Table to
this clause; (b) Building construction must satisfy AS 2021 (2000) with respect to interior noise levels for the use class; and (c) The owner of the site has given written consent for an agreement in accordance with Part 5 of the Land Use Planning
and Approvals Act 1993 to be registered on the title indicating likely exposure of use or development to noise nuisance from operations at the airport.

letter attached as Annexure F)
20 | P a g e
E2.6 Development Standards
E2.6.1 Information Requirements
The proposal is located between existing structures that have received previous Council approvals.
The proposal itself is for the construction of a residential dwelling under the building envelope
dimensions within the zone and therefore the proposal is not likely to penetrate operational airspace or
impact on the operation of aviation facilities.
The location of the subject site is within the flight path for fly-over and seldom approach and features
on the centreline to the primary runway on Map 11.
It is unlikely that the proposal will have a significant adverse effect on human health, public safety or
amenity or operational airspace or the function of aviation facilities.
E2.6.2 Protection of operational airspace
Objective: Development is to maintain –
a) efficient operation and safety of aircraft in operational airspace; and b) function of aviation facilities
Acceptable Solution – A1 Use or development must not –
(a) Penetrate the Obstacle Limitation Surface (OLS); or (b) Interfere with operation of aviation facilities
Discussion:
The use or development does not penetrate the OLS of aircraft operations and is sited under the canopy
level of surrounding trees. Likewise the development does not interfere with the operation of aviation
facilities as it is a residential dwelling.
E2.6.3 Public Safety Areas
Objective: The likelihood for risk to use from the effect of aircraft accidents near the end of a runway in association with take-off or landing is to be minimised Performance Criteria – P1 The airport operator or agency must advise it is satisfied the use or development does not unduly increase –
(a) direct risk to people in an aircraft and on the ground; (b) secondary incidents arising from damage to ground facilities in the event of an aircraft incident; and (c) any requirement for the location, design and control of the use or development
Discussion:
The use or development does not penetrate the OLS of aircraft operations and is sited under the canopy
level of surrounding trees. Likewise the development does not interfere with the operation of aviation
facilities as it is a residential dwelling.
E3 Clearing and Conversion of Vegetation Code – Not Applicable
The proposal does not seek to modify any existing native vegetation communities, habitats or areas of
vegetation and therefore this Code is not applicable to this application.
E4 Change in Ground Level Code – Not Applicable
The proposal does not alter any ground levels to existing or natural ground levels and therefore this
Code is not applicable to this application.
21 | P a g e
E5 Local Heritage Code – Not Applicable
The proposal does not contain any heritage issues and therefore this Code is not applicable to this
application.
E6 Hazard Management Code – Not Applicable
The proposal site is not subject to coastal inundation, erosion or recession and is not located within a
watercourse, wetland or stormwater disposal area and therefore this Code is not applicable to this
application.
E7 Sign Code – Not Applicable
The proposal does not contain any signage as part of the application and therefore this Code is not
applicable to this application.
E8 Telecommunication Code – Not Applicable
The proposal is for a residential dwelling and does not contain any telecommunications infrastructure

satisfying A1.2 above. Acceptable Solution – A2 Design and construction of an access strip and vehicle circulation, movement and standing areas for use or development on land within the Rural Living, Environmental Living, Open Space, Village, or Environmental Management zones must be in accordance with the principles and requirements for in the current edition of Unsealed Roads Manual – Guideline for Good Practice ARRB
Discussion:
Not applicable – the proposal is in the General Residential zone.
E10 Water and Waterways Code – Not Applicable
The proposal is located approximately 219 metres away from the nearest water body to; exceeding the
30 metre requirement and therefore the Code is not applicable to this application.
23 | P a g e
Conclusion
This supporting documentation demonstrates that the proposal of a dwelling unit supports and furthers
the Planning Scheme aims and objectives, relevant Clauses and Schedules as set out for development
within the General Residential Zone.
Where the proposal does not comply with the Acceptable Solution (AS) it has been demonstrated that
the Performance Criteria (PC) are satisfied and there is not an unreasonable loss of amenity as a
consequence of this proposal. Therefore Council are requested to exercise its Discretionary powers in
relation to this development.
With the above in mind, a planning permit for a new dwelling unit at 17 Katelyn Drive, Wynyard is
respectfully sought from the Planning Authority.

- non-threatened seabirds which have only been mapped for recorded breeding sites
- migratory species that are very widespread, vagrant, or only occur in small numbers
- some species and ecological communities that have only recently been listed
Not all species listed under the EPBC Act have been mapped (see below) and therefore a report is a general guide only. Where available datasupports mapping, the type of presence that can be determined from the data is indicated in general terms. People using this information in makinga referral may need to consider the qualifications below and may need to seek and consider other information sources.
For threatened ecological communities where the distribution is well known, maps are derived from recovery plans, State vegetation maps, remotesensing imagery and other sources. Where threatened ecological community distributions are less well known, existing vegetation maps and pointlocation data are used to produce indicative distribution maps.
- seals which have only been mapped for breeding sites near the Australian continent
Such breeding sites may be important for the protection of the Commonwealth Marine environment.
Threatened, migratory and marine species distributions have been derived through a variety of methods. Where distributions are well known and iftime permits, maps are derived using either thematic spatial data (i.e. vegetation, soils, geology, elevation, aspect, terrain, etc) together with pointlocations and described habitat; or environmental modelling (MAXENT or BIOCLIM habitat modelling) using point locations and environmental datalayers.
The information presented in this report has been provided by a range of data sources as acknowledged at the end of the report.Caveat

This report is designed to assist in identifying the locations of places which may be relevant in determining obligations under the EnvironmentProtection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999. It holds mapped locations of World and National Heritage properties, Wetlands of Internationaland National Importance, Commonwealth and State/Territory reserves, listed threatened, migratory and marine species and listed threatenedecological communities. Mapping of Commonwealth land is not complete at this stage. Maps have been collated from a range of sources at variousresolutions.
- threatened species listed as extinct or considered as vagrants
- some terrestrial species that overfly the Commonwealth marine area
The following groups have been mapped, but may not cover the complete distribution of the species:
Only selected species covered by the following provisions of the EPBC Act have been mapped:
Where very little information is available for species or large number of maps are required in a short time-frame, maps are derived either from 0.04or 0.02 decimal degree cells; by an automated process using polygon capture techniques (static two kilometre grid cells, alpha-hull and convex hull);or captured manually or by using topographic features (national park boundaries, islands, etc). In the early stages of the distribution mappingprocess (1999-early 2000s) distributions were defined by degree blocks, 100K or 250K map sheets to rapidly create distribution maps. More reliabledistribution mapping methods are used to update these distributions as time permits.
