  • EMPORIUM REDEVELOPMENT, LONSDALE and LITTLE BOURKE 12 April 2011 STREETS, MELBOURNE: TREE REMOVAL
    Page 1 of 7 FUTURE MELBOURNE (PLANNING) Agenda Item 5.1 COMMITTEE REPORT EMPORIUM REDEVELOPMENT, LONSDALE AND LITTLE BOURKE 12 April 2011 STREETS, MELBOURNE: TREE REMOVAL Presenter: Angela Meinke, Manager Planning and Building Purpose and background 1. This matter is presented to the Committee at the request of Councillor Clarke. 2. The purpose of this report is to advise the Committee of a request by Colonial First State (CFS) to allow the removal of two street trees located within the Lonsdale Street median strip. Key issues 3. The key issue for consideration is whether the existing street trees should be retained or permitted for removal. 4. The Minister for Planning issued a planning permit for the redevelopment of the Emporium site which included the requirement to retain the historic eight storey building façade. In investigating design options to enable this it was determined by the project engineers (on the basis of safety, practicality and certainty) that an external retention system was most appropriate. This option was presented by CFS to a stakeholder group facilitated by the Department of Innovation, Industry and Regional Development that included the Council officers, VicRoads and the Department of Transport. CFS also engaged at this time in detailed discussions with Council officers on the approach they proposed to adopt for the retention of the façade. 5. CFS’s representatives were advised by Council’s Urban Landscapes branch that Council would consider the removal of trees if there was no viable alternative. Council officers provided advice to CFS on the value to remove each tree and the need for CFS to pay all associated costs.

NATIONAL AND STATE WINNER (VIC + TAS) The structural concept and geometry allows the roof to be ARUP, Cox Architects + Planners delivered with approximately 50% of the steel required, compared to similar stadium roofs. Further, the shell concept allows the roof to work with a single layer of structure, where the façade is fixed directly to the structural frame, eliminating secondary steelwork. Parametric modelling allowed variations in geometry to be tested quickly to provide the most structurally efficient form. The roof structure is formed from 273mm diameter tubes, rigidly connected to form shells. Each shell is bounded by a 508mm diameter edge and front edge members, and a 457mm diameter back edge member. The structure is clad in a combination of aluminium, glass and louvres. The roof structure also supports four light towers on the corners of the stadium, with additional lighting fixtures and services suspended below the main canopy. Architectural merit AAMI Park (The Melbourne Rectangular Stadium) is a purpose built rectangular pitch stadium designed to accommodate 31,000 fans, and will host soccer, rugby league and rugby union matches.
