Boucher City of Waverley - represented by Mr. Clare The Forest Hill Shopping Centre Traders Association I Ltd. - represented by Mr. Morris of Counsel I The MMBW was represented by Mr. G. Edgar. THE AMENDMENT I The land owned by AMP on which is located the Knox City Shopping Centre is zoned Restricted Business. The gross leaseable floor area and number of car parking spaces are controlled by Clause 22AA I of the MMPS Ordinance. Item 2 of Amendment No. 280 proposes to increase the maximum permitted floor area of the Knox City Shopping Centre from 40,500 I square metres to 71,000 square metres and to provide for a minimum car parking ratio of ·6.6 spaces per 100 square metres of gross leaseable floor area. (The current requirement is for I a minimum of 6.5 spaces per 100 square metres up to an area of 33,000 square metres and a minimum of 8 spaces per 100 square metres in excess of 33,000 square metres.) I The Knox City Shopping Centre is strategically located at the intersectipn of Stud Road and Burwood Highway, Wantirna South, City of Knox. The Centre opened in 1977 with approximately 33,000 I square metres of retail gross leaseable floor space plus two cinemas, the Knox Library and an office tower. The Centre has not been expanded since then although an increase of 7,500 square metres (to 40,500 square metres) of~·gross leaseable floor space was permitted I by Amendment Nq. 190 Part 2 to the MMPS two years ago •. I I .', Vi t I 3. AMP, whilst supporting Amendment No. 190, contended at that time I that the maximum gross leaseable floor area for Knox City should be in,creased to 60,000 square metres. The Panel considering submissions in respect of Amendment No. 190 I did not support AMP's request for 60,000 square metres gross leaseable floor area essentially because it did not accept the population figures on which that request was based. It considered I that the population figures presented by AMP were "probably overly optimistic" and did not reflect the ,apparent downturn in population trends since the reports containing those figures were prepared. I The Panel was also critical of the extent to which the Ministerial guidelines on retailing had been addressed. I In support of its current application for an increase in gross leaseable floor area to 71,000 square metres AMP~~e~hpO:prepa~~dl e:~i:~!3:--~f"·re-P'Efr_ts-:~~V?~ume7,...-1- 3-):w~i,~h-dE!armos ~ .. careful'l y"' wfth7_.

An in-Centre survey, and an analysis of customer origin undertaken in late 1983 have indicated a larger catchment than was previously estimated and a larger I expenditure potential in the core trade area. The current core trade catchment of Knox City Shopping Centre has been identified as the municipalities of Knox and Sherbrooke. It I is estimated that by 1986 this catchment will have a population of 137,780 persons. The population is estimated to increase to 157,800 persons or 47,820 households by 1991, and 176,900 persons I or 53,610 households by 1996. The peripheral trade area has been identified as the five adjacent municipalities of Lilydale, Ringwood, Waverl~y and Nunawading. The total trade catchment (both core and peripheral) is estimated to have a population of 515,490 persons by 1986. I (See Table 3.4, page 34, Volume 3, "Market Assessment" prepared by Wilson Sayer CorePty. Ltd.) I Whilst some criticisms of the methods employed in reaching these conclusions were raised, particularly by the Forest Hill Traders Association, these population projections were not seriously ·1 challenged by any of the parties. They w,ere supported by the City of Kno~ which is carrying out its own cohort forward survival population projections. The Council advised the Panel that the figures it has derived are not dissimilar from those put forward by I AMP. [.O"e .... Panel::tnerefore accept5:tne popUlation 'figures-su6mil:tea~6y I ®Mp.,'--j(.• Having accepted these figures however, their interpretation in terms ,I of the effect of an expanded Knox City Shopping Centre on other nearby shopping centres was the subject of dispute between the ,I various submittors. :1 I i1 I 4. I IMPACT ON OTHER CENTRES AMP submits that taking account of both core and peripheral trade I areas the expansion of Knox City is immediately sustainable. On the other hand, the majority of other submittors argued that the extensions proposed were premature and would have the effect of drawing such a significant volume of retail trade from other I existing shopping centres as to seriously prejudice the continued viability of those centres. Specific reference was made to the I effect on Forest Hills, Boronia, Ringwood and Glen Waverley. AMP admits that the proposed expansion at Knox City will have an effect on other shopping centres but not a significant effect. I In discussing the effect on Boronia, which shares a similar core trade area with Knox City AMP submits that: I "Whilst Boronia Centre would be affected by inclusion of competing stores in Knox City, the resultant impact would not threaten the I ongoing viability of the Boronia Centre in view of the amount of available expenditure in Knox City trade area. Indeed the demand for retail space as highlighted in section 5.5 I can sustain both an expanded Knox City and Boronia Centre." I (Vol. 1 page 25.) With respect to the implications for community and neighbourhood I centres it is concluded that: "An expansion of Knox City would not have any significant adverse impact on lower order retail I centres in or near the Knox City core trade area. This is due to the different roles which these centres perform relative to Knox City and the likelihood,given previous experience, that ,they I will continue to sustain their appropriate share of aggregate retail floorspace." I (Vol. 1 page 26.) And with respect to implications for centres in the peripheral I trade' area: "Whilst an expansion of Knox City may draw some trade from existing regional centres I in the peripheral trade area, the amount of trade drawn would not affect the ongoing viability of the centres given: I the nature of each centre's individual trade area; the presence of major magnet stores I in most of the centres; and I I I I 5. the desirability of allowing market I forces to benefit the consumer in the form of widened shopping opportunities and greater competition which then allows I the continual process of adjustment of centres to occur!" . I (Vol. 1 page 26.) Whilst the market assessment provided by AMP and a closer analysis of the possible effects on other centres are dealt with in the next section of I this report the Panel would make the following general comments. Firstly, it is extremely difficult to accurately assess other centre's claims that their viability will be affected in the absence I of up-to-date trading figures for these centres. The only centre for which the panel has such figures is Knox City I which had an anticipated turnover of $115 million for 1984. (Vol.l page 24.) AMP agreed that the Centre is ·currently overtrading by almost I double what is accepted to be the threshold turnover level of $2,010 per square metre of retail floor space per annum. It has also impliedly admitted that its o~n tenants at Knox City will be I adversely affected by the proposed extensions due to a reduction in their annual turnover. "The proposed extension cannot be expected I to double turnover (in 1984 $ terms), becaus a dilution of the trading performance in $ MZ.

  • Blackburn Creeklands Master Plan
    BLACKBURN CREEKLANDS MASTER PLAN September 2002 Blackburn Creeklands Master Plan OVERVIEW Information from a range of sources has been compiled for the Blackburn Creeklands to build a picture of the park and of its past and present management. This background information acknowledges the community‟s close association with the Creeklands, the value that the community places on each of the three parks in the chain, the efforts of the Blackburn Creeklands Advisory Committee and improvements undertaken by Council. Relevant strategies and policy documents provide a City-wide and regional context for the Master Plan. In addition, a study of flora, fauna and habitat by Practical Ecology Pty Ltd was commissioned specifically for the Master Plan (refer Appendix A) and is a major component of the Plan. The recent study of Gardiners Creek by Ove Arup for Melbourne Water is also highly relevant to the future directions for the Creeklands. The site analysis considers the separate components that make up the Creeklands. It provides a detailed description of existing conditions for each component across the whole park and from this, key issues and opportunities for improvement are highlighted. Broadly, the site analysis covers the following: Environmental elements . Vegetation, fauna and habitat . The creek . Visual attributes, such as terrain and landscape character The park user . Park facilities, particularly access trails, entrance treatments, fencing and car parking, as well as playgrounds, lighting and seats. Activities, visitor needs, park interpretation and community education . Heritage interests Property management . Leases, tenant groups, adjoining land and other general property matters. The objectives of the Master Plan are intended to reflect those matters that are important to the community, Council and other key stakeholders.

    History of Nunawading Cricket Club Nunawading, What’s in a name To get a wider understanding of how the Club started and, in fact, how the BHRDCA started it is worth spending a while discussing the history of the Nunawading and Box Hill districts. There is a strong correlation between the ‘parishes’ of Nunawading, in particular, and Box Hill and the longer serving BHRDCA teams, Nunawading included. Over the next few paragraphs, I will provide a brief history of how Nunawading, formerly Tunstall, came to be and it’s progress from a rural bushland into the busy middle class suburb it has been since the war. The First people of Nunawading When white men first arrived in Victoria, in 1835 the indigenous Aboriginal community was displaced and had to move from traditional grounds, being occupied by Europeans, to displaced locations. When this displacement occurred to the aborigines in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, or perhaps to continue the old, traditional ways, Melbourne’s aborigines, who formed tribes all over the countryside, met in community places and would declare the fundamentals of the unity that existed between them. Following this show of unity more business like matters like common interests and disputes were discussed. One of these meeting places was in Melbourne’s East in a place thought to have been called Numpha-wading by the local aborigines and called Nunawading by the new European settlers, keen to preserve the indigenous names. The popular translation for this word is ‘ceremonial ground’. The boundaries of the native Nunawading were unclear, even to the aborigines and the parish of Nunawading was hilly and heavily timbered and covered a large area.
