In determining the order of submissions, the Chairperson shall first invite the applicant or their representatives to submit, followed by formal objectors and finally any other interested persons. All submitters accepting the invitation to address the meeting shall make submissions in accordance with these guidelines (or a variation of these guidelines as determined by the Chairperson at their sole discretion). • Speak for a maximum of five minutes; • Direct their submission to the Chairperson; • Confine their submission to the planning permit under consideration; • If possible, explain their preferred decision in relation to a permit application (refusing, granting or granting with conditions) and set out any requested permit conditions. • Avoid repetition and restating previous submitters; • Refrain from asking questions or seeking comments from the Councillors, applicants or other submitters; • If speaking on behalf of a group, explain the nature of the group and how the submitter is able to speak on their behalf. Following public submissions, the applicant or their representatives will be given a further opportunity of two minutes to exercise a right of reply in relation to matters raised by previous submitters. Applicants may not raise new matters during this right of reply. Councillors will then have an opportunity to ask questions of submitters.

This report provides the Planning Decision Committee (PDC) with an assessment of a planning application submitted for 150-152 Bridge Road, 1-3 Allowah Terrace and 195 Lennox Street, Richmond. The report recommends approval of the application, subject to a number of conditions. Key Planning Considerations 2.

  • Community Appraisal of Disability Access at Railway Stations in the City of Yarra
    Community Appraisal of Disability Access at Railway Stations in the City of Yarra Disability Advisory Committee D17/191767 ` Appraisal Reporting 2015 - 2017 PREAMBLE This project has been instigated and guided by the Disability Advisory Committee (DAC) at Yarra City Council (YCC). The significance of this report is the provision of evidence on issues of disability access to the railway stations gathered by “true experts” in access appraisals through their lived experience of sensory and/or physical disability. This report came to fruition due to an extraordinary determination, numerous visits and tireless data collection by project masterminds Mary Rispoli and David Brant (Community Representatives on the DAC). The engineering expertise, on-site assistance and data verification by Yarra’s Traffic Engineer, Warwick Middleton, were of utmost importance in their work. Generous assistance of DAC member Martin Leckey and former member of DAC Margaret Bayly added to the success. The advice and assistance of Council Officers Marta Rokicki, Pia Borghesi, Nopporn Jittasilp and Simon Exon in respect of data classification and analysis, content, formatting and editorials is also gratefully acknowledged. The case study provided by the Summer Foundation evidencing safety issues has demonstrated the urgency for action towards improvements for equal access to train commuting. A Yarra resident, who identifies himself as Bily, kindly shared his boarding experience in his electric wheelchair, which adds to the richness of this report. Special thanks are directed to the Yarra City Council for endorsing this report and to Public Transport Victoria (PTV) for consultative remarks in the process, and for the opportunity to put forward this report.

  • Book 2 Questions on Notice 9, 10 and 11 February 2016
    PARLIAMENT OF VICTORIA PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES (HANSARD) LEGISLATIVE COUNCIL FIFTY-EIGHTH PARLIAMENT FIRST SESSION Book 2 Questions on Notice 9, 10 and 11 February 2016 Internet: www.parliament.vic.gov.au/downloadhansard By authority of the Victorian Government Printer Following a select committee investigation, Victorian Hansard was conceived when the following amended motion was passed by the Legislative Assembly on 23 June 1865: That in the opinion of this house, provision should be made to secure a more accurate report of the debates in Parliament, in the form of Hansard. The sessional volume for the first sitting period of the Fifth Parliament, from 12 February to 10 April 1866, contains the following preface dated 11 April: As a preface to the first volume of “Parliamentary Debates” (new series), it is not inappropriate to state that prior to the Fifth Parliament of Victoria the newspapers of the day virtually supplied the only records of the debates of the Legislature. With the commencement of the Fifth Parliament, however, an independent report was furnished by a special staff of reporters, and issued in weekly parts. This volume contains the complete reports of the proceedings of both Houses during the past session. In 2016 the Hansard Unit of the Department of Parliamentary Services continues the work begun 150 years ago of providing an accurate and complete report of the proceedings of both houses of the Victorian Parliament.
