Provision of carparking

74 Provision of carparking

Adequate off-street carparking is to be provided within the subject property boundaries having regard to:

• the land use, and
• the hours of operation, and
• the availability of public transport, and
• the availability of alternative carparking, and
• the need for parking facilities for courier vehicles, delivery/service vehicles and bicycles.
Unless the applicable Locality Statement provides otherwise:
(a) if Schedule 17 (Carparking provision) specifies the minimum number of on-site parking spaces required in relation to a particular land use, or sets out a means of calculating that minimum number of spaces-at least that minimum number of spaces must be provided, or
(b) if Schedule 17 provides for comparisons to be drawn with developments for a similar purpose or for surveys to be taken-comparisons must be drawn or surveys taken and no less than the appropriate number of spaces must be provided, or
(c) if Schedule 17 requires reference to be made to specified design principles-reference must be made to those design principles.
If Schedule 17 requires for adequate provision of other facilities, those facilities must be provided.
In Schedule 17:
"GFA" means gross floor area which is the sum of the areas of each floor of a building where the area of each floor is taken to be the area within the outer face of the external enclosing walls as measured at a height of 1400 millimetres above each floor level excluding:
(a) columns, fin walls, sun control devices and any elements, projections or works outside the general line of the outer face of the external wall, and
(b) lift towers, cooling towers, machinery and plant rooms, and ancillary storage space and vertical air-conditioning ducts, and
(c) carparking specifications which meet requirements of Council and internal access thereto, and
(d) space for the loading and unloading of goods.
"GLFA" means gross leasable floor area which is the sum of the area of each floor of a building where the area of each floor is taken to be the area within the internal faces of the walls, excluding stairs, amenities, lifts, corridors and other public areas but including stock storage area.
Carparking for land uses not identified in Schedule 17 must be adequate to serve the development having regard to the points set out above.
Despite Schedule 17, community title subdivisions are to include provision for one visitor parking space per five dwellings or part thereof. These spaces are to be located within the neighbourhood property lot.
For the purposes of calculating the number of bedrooms in a unit so as to calculate minimum parking requirements under Schedule 17, studies, lofts or other such rooms capable of being used as bedrooms will also be calculated as a bedroom.
