DEVELOPMENT ACT 1993: SECTION 48

Decision by the Governor

Preamble

1. On 8 February 2007 the Minister for Urban Development and Planning gave notice in the Government Gazette that he was of the opinion that it was appropriate for the proper assessment of development of major environmental, social or economic importance that section 46 of the Development Act 1993 applied to any development of a kind listed in Schedule 1 of that notice in the parts of the State listed in Schedule 2 of that notice.

2. A proposal from the South Australian National Football League (hereafter ‘the proponent’) to install new lighting at AAMI Stadium at West Lakes, was the subject of a development application lodged on 16 November 2007.

3. In accordance with the declaration referred to in paragraph 1 of this Preamble, the application has been under consideration under Division 2 of Part 4 of the Development Act 1993. The proposal has been the subject of a Development Report and an Assessment Report under sections 46 and 46D of the Development Act 1993, and is hereafter referred to as the ‘proposed Major Development’.

4. I am satisfied that an appropriate Development Report and an Assessment Report have been prepared in relation to the proposed Major Development, in accordance with sections 46 and 46D, Division 2 of Part 4 of the Development Act 1993, and have had regard, when considering the proposed Major Development, to all relevant matters under section 48 (5) of the Development Act 1993.

5. I have decided to grant provisional development authorisation to the proposed Major Development under section 48 (6) of the Development Act 1993, whilst reserving the decision on specified matters until further assessment of the proposed development.

6. Contemporaneously with the issuing of this Notice, I intend, pursuant to section 48 (8) of the Development Act 1993 to delegate to the Minister for Urban Development and Planning:

(a) the power to assess the reserve matters and to issue a final development authorisation for the purposes of section 48 (2) (b) (i) of the Act;

(b) the power to grant or permit any variation associated with that provisional development authorisation (provided that the essential nature of the development is not changed); and

(c) in relation to that provisional development authorisation, or any variation—the power to vary or revoke conditions, or to attach new conditions, under section 48 (7) of the Development Act 1993 (provided that the essential nature of the development is not changed).

Decision

PURSUANT to section 48 of the Development Act 1993 and with the advice and consent of the Executive Council, and having due regard to the matters set out in section 48 (5) and all other relevant matters, I:

(a) grant a provisional development authorisation in relation to the proposed Major Development under section 48 (6) subject to the conditions set out in Part B below;

(b) pursuant to section 48 (6) reserve my decision on the reserved matters specified in Part A below;

(c) specify all matters relating to this provisional development authorisation as matters in respect of which conditions of this authorisation may be varied or revoked, or new conditions attached; and

(d) specify for the purposes of section 48 (11) (b) the period of two years from the date of this provisional development authorisation as the time within which substantial work must be commenced on site, failing which I may cancel this authorisation.

PART A: RESERVED MATTERS

The following are the matters I have reserved for further assessment:

(a) Compliance with the Building Rules in relation to all aspects of the proposed Major Development.

(b) Detailed designs, drawings (including elevations), and engineering specifications for the lighting towers (including headframes).

(c) Construction Environmental Management Plan and Monitoring Plan to cover the pre-construction phases to address management issues during construction.

PART B: CONDITIONS OF PROVISIONAL DEVELOPMENT AUTHORISATION

1. The development authorisation granted hereunder is provisional only, does not operate as a final development authorisation, and does not therefore authorise implementation of the proposed Major Development. Only an authorisation granted under section 48 (2) (b) (i) can operate to authorise implementation of the proposed Major Development, which authorisation will only be granted after the reserved matters have been assessed and approved.

1a. Except where minor amendments may be required by other legislation, or by conditions imposed herein, the proposed Major Development shall be undertaken in strict accordance with the following documents:

• Development application by the SANFL dated 16 November 2007 (except to the extent that it may be varied by a subsequent document in this paragraph).

• Development Report, New Lighting System for AAMI Stadium, West Lakes, by the SANFL dated March 2008 (except to the extent that it may be varied by a subsequent document in this paragraph).

• Response to Submissions, New Lighting System for AAMI Stadium, West Lakes, by the SANFL dated May 2008 (except to the extent that it may be varied by a subsequent document in this paragraph).

• Assessment Report prepared by the Minister for Urban Development and Planning dated November 2008.

2. All works and site activities shall be undertaken in accordance with an approved Construction Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan.

3. Normal operating hours for construction activities and truck movements to and from the site shall be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Saturday, inclusive. Only if it is considered necessary by the proponent shall construction be undertaken on Sundays, in which case construction hours shall be from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.

4. The Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 shall be complied with during construction activities and truck movements.

5. Any hazardous substances (e.g. fuels, compressed gases, solvents, paints, asbestos, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB’s) and other construction-related substances), shall be removed and disposed of in accordance with Environment Protection Authority requirements.

6. The proponent shall address the reserved matters and submit relevant documentation to the Minister for Urban Development and Planning for its approval.

PART C: NOTES TO PROPONENT

1. In respect of the reserved matters, the following is advised to the proponent:

(a) Detailed Designs, Drawings (including elevations), and Engineering Specifications for the Lighting Towers (including headframes)

Appropriately detailed designs, drawings (including elevations) and specifications for the abovementioned should be provided to enable their proper assessment.

A certificate from a registered engineer (certifying the soundness of the designs) shall accompany these designs on their submission to the Development Assessment Commission for approval.

(b) Building Rules

The proponent must obtain a Building Rules assessment and certification from either the Charles Sturt Council or a private certifier (at the proponent’s option) and forward to the Development Assessment Commission all relevant certification documents as outlined in Regulation 64 of the Development Regulations 2008.

Pursuant to Development Regulation 64, the proponent is especially advised that the Charles Sturt Council or private certifier conducting a Building Rules assessment must:

• provide to the Minister for Urban Development and Planning a certification in the form set out in Schedule 12A of the Development Regulations 2008, in relation to the building works in question; and

• to the extent that may be relevant and appropriate:

(i) issue a Schedule of Essential Safety Provisions under Division 4 of Part 12; and

(ii) assign a classification of the building under these regulations; and

(iii) ensure that the appropriate levy has been paid under the Construction Industry Training Fund 1993.

Regulation 64 of the Development Regulations 2008 provides further information about the type and quantity of all Building Rules certification documentation for Major Developments required for referral to the Minister for Urban Development and Planning. The Charles Sturt Council or private certifier undertaking Building Rules assessments must ensure that the assessment and certification are consistent with this provisional development authorisation (including its Conditions and Notes).

(c) A Construction, Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan covering Pre-construction and Construction Phases

A Construction Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (CEMMP) covering both pre-construction and construction phases shall be prepared in consultation with the Environment Protection Authority, before its submission to the Development Assessment Commission for approval.

The proponent’s Construction Environmental Management and Monitoring Plan (CEMMP), should be prepared taking into consideration, and with explicit reference to, relevant Environment Protection Authority policies and guideline documents, including the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007.

2. The proponent is advised of the General Environmental Duty under section 25 of the Environment Protection Act 1993, which requires that a person must not undertake any activity, which pollutes, or may pollute, without taking all reasonable and practical measures to prevent or minimise harm to the environment.

3. The applicant is advised that noise emissions from the new lighting system will be subject to the Environment Protection (Noise) Policy 2007 and the Environment Protection Act 1993.

4. The applicant is advised that the Development Act 1993 outlines the roles and responsibilities of the applicant and the City of Charles Sturt Council for matters relating to building works during and after construction of the new lighting system.

5. Please note that any previous conditions still apply unless superceded by this decision.

6. The Minister has a specific power to require testing, monitoring and auditing under section 48C of the Development Act 1993.

7. Should the proponent wish to vary the Major Development or any of the components of the Major Development, an application may be submitted, provided that the development application variation remains within the ambit of the Development Report and Assessment Report referred to in this provisional development authorisation. If an application for variation involves substantial changes to the proposal, it will be processed pursuant to section 47 (2) (b) of the Development Act 1993.

Given under my hand at Adelaide, 11 December 2008.

KEVIN SCARCE, Governor
