The purpose of this report is to seek endorsement of the City of Melbourne’s submission (Attachment 2) to the combined planning scheme amendment and planning permit application for subdivision prepared by the Minister for Planning for Treasury Square (Attachment 3). 2. Amendment C370 and the accompanying planning permit application affect 295-357 Wellington Parade South, which is a portion of VicTrack-owned land south of Wellington Parade South and Flinders Street, and extending from the eastern edge of Batman Avenue/Citylink to just beyond the eastern edge of Spring Street. 3. The Planning Scheme Amendment is to rezone the land to Capital City Zone Schedule 1 (CCZ1); apply Design and Development Overlay Schedule 10 (DDO10); apply the Environmental Audit Overlay (EAO); and refer future applications to VicTrack and the Department of Transport. Schedule 12 to the Parking Overlay (PO12) and the City Link Project Overlay (CLPO) currently apply and are intended to remain. The Planning Permit application is for a subdivision into two lots, with a number of parts. Key issues 4. This is a significant and strategic site in central Melbourne, adjacent to the Hoddle Grid, with a frontage to Flinders Street and Wellington Parade South, and adjacent to an established inner city neighbourhood. Development on this site will be highly visible along the Yarra River corridor. The site is highly encumbered by transport infrastructure, including railway lines and substations.

Proposed Sewer Mining Project in Princes Park: [Water Mining Project Facilitation]
Page 1 of 7 COUNCIL REPORT Agenda Item 3.2 25 January 2007 PROPOSED SEWER MINING PROJECT IN PRINCES PARK: [WATER MINING PROJECT FACILITATION] Division Assets & Services Presenter Ian Harris, Group Manager Parks and Recreation Purpose 1. To re-affirm Council’s commitment for the proposed Princes Park Water Mining project. Recommendation from Management 2. That Council re-affirm its commitment to the proposed Princes Park Water Mining project to secure recycled water for use in the City’s parks and seek Victorian and Australian Government priority and financial support for the project. Key Issues 3. The current drought and Stage 3 water restrictions have highlighted the need to explore sources of recycled water to drought proof the City’s parks and gardens. The proposed water mining plant in Princes Park has the potential to supply water (when required in summer) to Royal Park (sports fields), Princes Park (including the Carlton Football ground) and Carlton Gardens. The plant also has the potential to be expanded to supply other parks north of the Yarra River including the Fitzroy Gardens, Treasury Gardens and Yarra Park. It also could provide water to the Melbourne Zoo, Melbourne Cemetery and Melbourne University, CSL and Parkville Gardens which could provide a base demand (all year round) for water from the plant. 4. City West Water, the proponent and envisaged operator, in conjunction with the City of Melbourne has confirmed the feasibility of a $30 million fully underground plant in Princes Park. This plant would extract water from the sewer beneath College Crescent and provide treated water to customers such as the City of Melbourne.
