Judgment

1. COMMISSIONER: This is an appeal against the refusal of DA-2015/259 for alterations and additions to an existing residential dwelling and change of use to a child care centre at 16 Segenhoe Street, Arncliffe (the site).

2. The child care centre is proposed to cater for 50 children and nine staff operating from 7:00am to 7:00pm Monday to Friday (except public holidays). The child care centre will also employ one cleaner and one kitchen staff, however these staff will be employed for 2-3 hours on two days of the week, and the cleaner will attend the site after the centre is closed.

3. The proposal includes a total of nine off-street parking spaces. This includes two stacked staff parking spaces and one disabled parking space off Segenhoe Street. Two staff parking spaces, three visitor parking spaces and one dual use parking space are proposed at the rear of the site with access off Segenhoe Lane. Access to the centre for parents picking up and dropping off children will be from the rear carpark off Segenhoe Lane.

4. The development application is accompanied by an Operational Plan of Management (OPM) that addresses:

• Overall Centre Objectives   

• Number of Children and Staff Indoor and Outdoor Play Areas

• Hours of Operation

• Basic Timetabling   

• Drop Off and Pick Up   

• On-site Security   

• Music   

• Food and Drink   

• Deliveries   

• Waste   

• Relevant Government Regulations and Australian Standards

5. The council maintains that the development application should be refused because it creates:

• unacceptable safety impacts,

• unacceptable traffic and parking impacts, and

• unacceptable amenity impacts in relation to the use of Segenhoe Lane and the character and amenity of the area.

6. A number of reasons provided evidence on the site inspection and supported the concerns of the council together with the following additional concerns:

• additional traffic which would exacerbate the already poor traffic created by Arncliffe Public School opposite the site,

• Segenhoe Lane and Bellevue Court are unsuitable as access to the site,

• safety of children attending Arncliffe Public School, and

• additional noise from the operation of the child care centre.

The site and adjoining area

7. The site is comprised of two rectangular allotments (Lot 4 Sec G DP 2271 and Lot 5 Sec G DP 2271) that have a combined (western) primary frontage of 18.29 m to Segenhoe Street and a combined (eastern) secondary frontage of 18.29 m to Segenhoe Lane. The site has a side boundary length of 48.77 m and a total area of 892 sq m and a fall of approximately 2.05 m to the east.

8. A two-storey rendered brick dwelling with tiled roof and a detached rendered brick garage has a frontage to Segenhoe Street, and detached garages/outbuilding that extend the full width of the site adjoin Segenhoe Lane. Segenhoe Lane is principally used for vehicular access to the rear of the properties in Segenhoe Street and Bellevue Court.

9. The site is located opposite a Department of Education & Communities Regional Office (DEC) and training facility and Arncliffe Public School. The DEC facility operates weekdays between 8:30am and 4:30pm, however some training and meetings are also held in the evenings.

10. Parking restrictions apply to the western side of Segenhoe Street during school hours to allow drop-off and pick-up of school children by car and bus. Parking restrictions also apply to the section of Segenhoe Street north of the site. During morning peak times, there are “no-right-hand-turn” restrictions from Segenhoe Street onto Wickham Street.

11. Developments in the vicinity of the proposed development are generally characterised by a mix of residential uses, comprising single and two storey detached dwellings and multi-dwelling housing.

Relevant planning controls

12. The site is zoned R3 - Medium Density Residential under the Rockdale Local Environmental Plan 2011 (LEP 2011). The proposal is permissible with consent in the R3 zone. Clause 2.3(2) provides that the Court must have regard to the zone objectives when determining a development application. The zone objectives are:

• To provide for the housing needs of the community within a low density residential environment.

• To enable other land uses that provide facilities or services to meet the day to day needs of residents.

• To ensure that land uses are carried out in a context and setting that minimises any impact on the character and amenity of the area.

13. Rockdale Development Control Plan 2011 (DCP 2011) provides further guidelines for child care centres, specifically pt 4.6.1 Car parking rates, pt 4.6.7 Car parking location and design and pt 6.1 Child care centres.

Traffic/parking

14. Expert evidence was provided by Mr Craig McLaren for the applicant and Mr Martin Mallia for the council. They produced a joint report that identified the following areas of agreement:

• the proposal exceeds the quantum of car parking required by pt 4.6.1 of DCP 2011,

• the primary function for Segenhoe Lane is to provide vehicular access to the rear of the adjoining residential properties,

• the RMS residential threshold for local roads, including the additional traffic generated by the proposed centre, is below the 100 vehicles per hour for an “Access way”,

• the videos of cars on the local road system are unreliable and should not considered. The most reliable data is that provided by Mr McLaren for traffic and pedestrian counts, and

• the amended car park design off Segenhoe Lane is superior to the earlier layout where vehicles were required to either reverse into or from Segenhoe Lane.

15. Mr McLaren and Mr Mallia however disagree on the following other matters.

Number of spaces

The evidence

16. While Mr Mallia accepts that the proposed development satisfies the number of spaces required by DCP 2011, he does not agree that this is the appropriate document to calculate the required number of spaces for the development. Mr Mallia notes that if the Roads and Maritime Services Guide to Traffic Generating Developments (RMS Guide) traffic generation rates are applied then seven visitor spaces and six staff spaces would be required for the development. The DCP 2011 parking requirement is three visitor spaces and five staff spaces and according to Mr Mallia, is based on a higher rate of pedestrian and public transport activity than that contemplated in the RMS Guide. In his opinion, car usage will be greater and the higher rates in the RMS Guide should be applied. Mr Mallia believes that an additional three parking spaces are required for visitors to accommodate all of the parking on-site.

17. Mr McLaren states that Mr Mallia needs to provide the background analysis that underpins his statement that DCP 2011 is based upon higher pedestrian and public transport activity, especially in light of the fact that DCP 2011 car parking rates apply across the entire local government area inclusive of low public transport accessible locations. Mr McLaren understands that the RMS Guide traffic generation figures are based on 9 long day care sites in the 1990's, two of which are opposite schools, whilst most are in low density residential areas with poor public transport. These sites had no active OPM’s that control parent parking duration of stay such that parent parking behaviour was largely unrestrained.

Findings

18. I can comfortably conclude that DCP 2011 is the appropriate document for calculating the appropriate number of car spaces for the development. DCP 2011 must be preferred over the RMS Guide as DCP 2011 applies specifically to the Rockdale local government area. As it was adopted in 2011, it is a relatively new document, particularly when compared to the RMS Guideline of the 1990’s. A development control plan is also identified in s79C(1)(a)(iii) as a matter to be considered in the evaluation of a development application even though I accept that the RMS Guide can be considered as a matter of the public interest.

19. Section 79C(3A)(a) also provides that the Court cannot require more onerous standards for the number of car parking spaces as the development fully complies with DCP 2011 requirement for staff and visitors.

20. Consequently, the proposed development satisfies the requirements of DCP 2011 in relation to the number of car spaces and the number of car parking spaces would not be a reason to refuse the application.

The use of Segenhoe Lane

The evidence

21. Mr Mallia states that Segenhoe Lane is a narrow carriageway with poor geometry and a speed limit of 50km/h. The lane does not provide a footpath, and does not contain any street lighting. In its current form, it does not provide a safe environment for the movement of pedestrians and drivers to the centre as the main access for the site.

22. Mr Mallia accepts that the operation of the site would be more satisfactory if a single access point was provided from Segenhoe Lane, with improvements made to Segenhoe Lane to reduce traffic speeds, improve visibility and create a safer environment for the interaction of pedestrians and vehicles, for example a shared zone.

23. Mr McLaren does not accept that improvements are needed to Segenhoe Lane to make the use of the lane safe. He states that not all parents would use the Segenhoe Lane, as dual use with the public school opposite is a highly likely outcome. There may be some parents who walk to the proposed centre and use Segenhoe Street as their access point. This was a conclusion reached in the council assessment report where it concluded that “the centre will draw from existing parents of the public school and parents who chose to walk to the centre from the surrounding neighbourhood such that the traffic and parking demands are reduced”.

24. Mr McLaren further states that a Road Safety Audit (RSA) was undertaken as well as traffic and pedestrian counts on Segenhoe Lane and Segenhoe Street. The existing traffic and pedestrian surveys show that the volumes within Segenhoe Lane are currently very low. Whilst the proposed centre will add traffic to the laneway, these volumes are able to be accommodated by the superior redesigned car park such that manoeuvring occurs on-site with vehicles entering and exiting Segenhoe Lane in a forward direction. The RSA was undertaken on the previous design where vehicles were manoeuvring within Segenhoe Lane and the redesign of the car park off Segenhoe Lane has been undertaken to address the views expressed within the RSA.

25. The potential for vehicles to drop-off in the laneway is addressed firstly, by sufficient on-site parking to accommodate demand to allow for the standard 6.8 minute duration of stay under the RMS Guide and the OPM through the provision of five visitor car parking spaces during the peak 7:00-9:00am and 4:00-6:00pm periods and secondly, the requirements of DCP 2011 where three dedicated visitor spaces are provided.

26. The traffic and pedestrian counts undertaken indicate very low activity such that the risk would be low both under current and future conditions. The RMS Guide traffic generation is based on a car driver percentage of 93%, whereby the remaining 7% is assumed to walk. The distribution of parents walking to the site is estimated to be 4 parents .

27. In response to Mr Mallia’s evidence, Mr McLaren notes that a shared zone is not justified from either the resulting mix of likely vehicles and pedestrians in Segenhoe Lane or from a risk assessment approach. The RMS are unlikely to grant a shared zone given the low numbers of pedestrians currently or subsequent to the child care centre operating on the site.

Findings

28. Mr McLaren and Mr Mallia agree that the preferred access to the site is from Segenhoe Lane although Mr Mallia maintains that the lane needs to be upgraded to achieve a safe environment for the movement of pedestrians and drivers. Mr McLaren maintains that Segenhoe Lane is acceptable in its current form.

29. With the benefit of the site inspection and the evidence, I agree with the conclusions of Mr McLaren that Segenhoe Lane is acceptable in its current form for access to the centre for the following reasons:

• the agreed position of the experts was that Segenhoe Lane was the more desirable of the two potential entrances to the site,

• even though the road pavement is not in good condition, I am satisfied that the alignment, grade and available sight distances are acceptable for access to the proposed car park,

• the revised car park layout allows all vehicle manoeuvring to enter and leave the car park to take place on the site rather than on Segenhoe Lane,

• the amount of pedestrian movements on Segenhoe Lane is likely to be low and combined with the visibility along the lane, any potential safety issues are minimised,

• the OPM provides the ability of the centre management to instigate procedures for the effective dropping off and picking up children, and

• the OPM provides the ability of the centre management to inform patrons that there should be no pedestrian access from Segenhoe Lane.

The use of Segenhoe Street

The evidence

30. Mr Mallia’s evidence states that the applicant relies on the OPM that access for pedestrians and dual use pick-up/drop-off may be granted from Segenhoe Street; however it will be extremely difficult, in practice, to determine which parents/carers walked, which were dual use and which potentially park on Segenhoe Street to pick-up/drop-off children. His concern is that additional traffic using Segenhoe Street may further exacerbate an existing safety concern on Segenhoe Street of inconsiderate and at times illegal parking and traffic manoeuvres.

31. Mr Mallia does not accept that dual use access from Segenhoe Street is necessarily a positive solution in this case, as parents/carers dropping from Segenhoe Street to the school opposite occasionally park on 'no parking' restrictions, which are suitable for up to 2 minutes parking. However, this is not suitable for the child care centre which can take up to 6.8 minutes. Furthermore, there are instances of double parking and other inconsiderate parking in relation to the school, which may only occur for longer if a parent/carer is dropping to both the school and the child care centre. It is necessary for any pedestrians to have a safe access point to the site.

32. Mr Mallia acknowledges that the development maintains the existing parking arrangement from Segenhoe Street, and staff spaces are similar to that of a residential space in terms of the number of movements per day. However, the use of the site is proposed to change to a child care centre, which would enliven the requirement for forward entry and exit as per pt 4.6, cl 10 of DCP 2011. Furthermore, the staff spaces are stacked, which may result in additional reversing manoeuvres if staff members wish to leave at different times, which is a likely event as demonstrated in the OPM with staff on different shift patterns. Further consideration should be given to the disabled visitor space, which will be higher in turnover than the staff spaces and also used for deliveries and servicing. For these reasons, the parking spaces off Segenhoe Street are therefore not supportable.

33. Mr McLaren notes that whilst the car parking arrangement may not strictly satisfy pt 4.6 of DCP 2011, this arrangement is considered adequate as the existing residential development provides car parking off Segenhoe Street which requires forward entry and reverse exit. The existing car parking off Segenhoe Street would be classified as residential whereby the peak hour movements for the dwelling would be 2 morning movements and 2 evening movements. A domestic property has vehicle movements 24 hours a day for 7 days a week (equivalent to 168 hours per week) whilst the child care, operational from 7am to 6pm 5 days a week is equivalent to 55 hours a week, or about one third of a domestic property.

34. The proposed parking arrangement off Segenhoe Street is for 2 staff spaces and 1 disabled car space. Staff parking is generally categorised as being the same as residential parking. It is low turnover parking and tidal (i.e arrive in the morning, leave in the afternoon). The disabled car parking space would also be considered low turnover as it is restricted to those holding a disabled permit.

Findings

35. Pt 4.6.10 of DCP 2011 states:

10. The following developments shall be designed with internal manoeuvring areas so that vehicles can enter and exit the site in a forward direction:

a. .

b. child care centres

36. While Mr Mallia relies on pt 4.6 of DCP 2011 to suggest that the development should be refused because the three car spaces in Segenhoe Street cannot enter and leave in a forward direction, I am not satisfied that this is a sufficient reason to refuse the application. Mr McLaren is correct in his assessment that the movements from these spaces, associated with the specific allocation of these spaces for staff and disabled use, is likely to be less than the normal residential use of the property. The inability for vehicles to enter and leave in a forward direction is also not a barrier to the approval of a child care centre, as set out in pt 6.1.33 of DCP 2011 where it states:

33. Where on-site parking and a drop off and pick up area cannot be provided due to site constraints, adequate provision of on street parking and kerbside drop off and pick up must be demonstrated.

37. The concern of Mr Mallia that additional traffic using Segenhoe Street may further exacerbate an existing safety concern on Segenhoe Street is satisfactorily addressed through the OPM where the focus on movements to and from the centre is from Segenhoe Lane rather than Segenhoe Street and the likely low turnover of the car parking spaces that gain access from Segenhoe Street. While there may be some additional traffic movements in Segenhoe Street, I do not accept that it will add in any meaningful way to the existing traffic conditions. Unfortunately, illegal parking and potentially dangerous traffic manoeuvres can occur around schools however this is a matter of enforcement of the law that govern parking and traffic movements. I do not however accept that this would be a valid reason to refuse the application given the likely small amount of traffic generated by the centre that would utilise Segenhoe Street.

Impact on traffic in local area

The evidence

38. Mr McLaren and Mr Mallia agree that the most reliable data is that provided by Mr McLaren for traffic and pedestrian counts. Using the most recent survey data undertaken in February 2016, Segenhoe Lane carries on average (over three days) 13 vehicles during 8:00-9:00am period and 9 vehicles during the 4:00-5:00pm peak hour. In adopting the worst case traffic generation outcome that all trips occur within Segenhoe Lane, the morning peak hour will increase from 13 vehicles to 53 vehicles and the evening will increase from 9 to 44 peak hour vehicles.

39. Segenhoe Street on average carries 201 vehicles during the 8:00-9:00am period and 63 vehicles during the 4:00-5:00pm period. If adopting the worst case traffic outcome that all trips occur within Segenhoe Street then the two way volumes would increase from 201 to 241 in the morning and 63 to 98 in the evening.

38. The Segenhoe Lane two-way traffic volumes are well below the RMS residential amenity threshold for a local access way of 100 vehicles per hour, whilst Segenhoe Street two-way traffic volumes are below the maximum threshold for a local street of 300 vehicles per hour when considering residential amenity thresholds.

Findings

41. Based on the data provided by Mr McLaren for traffic and pedestrian counts, I am satisfied that the increased traffic generation on Segenhoe Lane will not result in adverse impacts on residents and the locality. While Segenhoe Lane is currently used predominantly as an access road to residential properties, I accept the evidence of Mr McLaren that the added traffic brought about by the proposed development can be accommodated in the lane. The fact that Segenhoe Lane will now accommodate additional traffic which does not align with the original purpose of this road being for predominantly residential access does not exclude it from being used as access to the centre.

42. At the site inspection, a consistent concern of the residents was the traffic in the area and which was exacerbated by the DEC training facility and Arncliffe Public School. I readily accept that the traffic generated by these facilities creates a situation where residents are subject to levels of traffic and movements not normally associated with a residential area, particularly in the drop off and pick up times associated with Arncliffe Public School. In considering the subject application, the Court is required to consider the impacts of the development and in this case, the traffic experts did not suggest that the development, individually or cumulatively, had such an effect on local traffic that this warranted the refusal of the application.

Conditions of consent

43. Mr McLaren and Mr Mallia disagreed on the following conditions of consent:

Deferred commencement conditions A & B, condition 92(iv)

44. The deferred commencement conditions require a shared zone that according to the council is necessary to provide safe access to the site for any pedestrians walking along Segenhoe Lane and Bellevue Court between Avenal Street and Bellevue Street. Parents/carers who access the site on foot other than from Segenhoe Street will walk along Segenhoe Lane and Bellevue Court. The council submits that the recommendation of the independent RSA in relation to the implementation of a shared zone should be adopted.

45. The applicant submits that The Shared Zones Policy & Guidelines by Transport for NSW in describing the Site Criteria for Shared Zones states:

The fundamental prerequisite when considering the implementation of Shared Zones is the definition of an area in which there is an acknowledged high level of pedestrian activity and potential pedestrian and vehicle conflict

46. The applicant submits that the recommendation contained in the RSA was made prior to the amended on-site parking area being proposed and prior to the amended OPM which require all pedestrian visitors to enter the centre from Segenhoe Street. Both experts agree that Segenhoe Lane has low pedestrian activity. Mr Mallia in cross examination agreed that even if all pedestrians visiting the child care centre travel used Segenhoe Lane pedestrian activity will remain low.

47. I accept the submissions of the applicant and the conditions can be deleted.

Condition 15

48. This condition relates to limiting access from Segenhoe Street for people attending the centre. The council submits that it is not appropriate that "dual use parents / carers / guardians that are associated with the school opposite" be allowed to access the building from the door facing Segenhoe Street. Dual use parents are parents that may have children attending the school and the centre and will already be parking in Segenhoe Street to drop off/collect their children from the school. The council submits that the child care centre will not be able to identify which parents/carers/guardians are "dual use" and which are not. Allowing access via the door facing Segenhoe Street will encourage all parents/ carers/guardians to enter the site via Segenhoe Street, which will worsen the existing traffic conditions in Segenhoe Street.

49. The applicant states that the words "dual use parents/carers/guardians that are associated with the school opposite" be added after the words "except for" in the second line of the condition. The purpose behind this condition is to dissuade parents driving to the child care centre and parking in Segenhoe Street rather than Segenhoe Lane. Consequently, they will not be taking up spaces as a parent of a child care centre child. The amendment allows such parents to access the centre from the front door.

50. I agree with the applicants modified condition.

Conditions 17(b), Note to condition 17(b), 18, 38(b)

51. The conditions and Note require that a 0.9 m wide Right of Footway be dedicated in favor of the council along the boundary with Segenhoe Lane. The Right of Footway is required to ensure adequate pedestrian line of sight, waste collection day bin storage area, vehicular swept path movements and also to accommodate the existing sewer outlet and future street lights.

52. The applicant states the Note and conditions should be deleted as the requirement to dedicate a 0.9 m wide Right of Footway along the rear boundary was not raised by council as a contention. The amended plan prepared by Mr Mallia and agreed to by Mr McLaren did not require the pathway. Further, as no fence is proposed at the rear boundary, sight lines are unaffected by the carpark. Waste bins will be placed in Segenhoe Street and all manoeuvring is to occur within the carpark and not in the lane. The sewer pipe does not need to be relocated and any street lights are the responsibility of the council.

53. I accept the submissions of the applicant and the Note and conditions can be deleted.

Condition 20

54. The condition requires that two lockable bollards should be installed in the driveway off Segenhoe Street. The council maintains that the installation of lockable bollards was recommended in the RSA and accepted by the applicant. The lockable bollards are necessary to prevent unauthorised parking in the staff parking spaces and disabled parking space and to help prevent U-turns and 3-point turns that currently occur using the driveway.

55. The applicant accepts that the bollard in front of the shared space is necessary however objects to bollards in front of the disabled/staff spaces. As the bollards would be within the property, they would not stop cars from using the driveway on council land to undertake U-turns which is the reason put forward for such bollards in the RSA. As the staff spaces shall be occupied at all times, the bollards within the staff spaces will be removed during the day. It would be inappropriate for a disabled driver to stop in the entrance, leave the vehicle and arrange for the bollard to be removed.

56. I accept the submissions of the applicant and the conditions can be amended.

Conditions 70 & 71

57. The conditions relate to the provision of amended Traffic & Parking Plan of Management (TPPOM) (condition 70) and the Operational Management Plan (OMP) (condition 71) and states that amended plans should be submitted to, and approved by, the Director of Planning and Development at the council. The council maintains that the current draft TPPOM and OPM are inadequate and the PCA may not be qualified or experienced to assess these documents. The TPPOM and OMP are critical for ensuring impacts to properties are minimised.

58. The applicant accepts that the OPM and TPPOM should be updated in accordance with these conditions however does not agree that the updated plans should be subject to the approval of the Director of Planning. Council have not raised issues regarding the OPM and TPPOM and to make the consent issued by the Court conditional upon the approval of the Director of Planning is inappropriate and would lead to a lack of finality and certainty in the consent.

59. I agree with the council that the OPM and TPPOM need to be endorsed by the council. I am satisfied that this is most efficiently addressed through the Director of Planning (or the equivalent position). The sentence “Any approval must not be unreasonably withheld” should also be included in the condition.

Condition 91

60. The condition seeks the relocation of an existing sewer vent. The council submits that there is a sewer vent which will prevent parents/carers/guardians with prams from entering the site from Segenhoe Lane using the footpath to the east of the on-site carpark. This sewer vent should be relocated to allow safe access to the site.

61. The applicant submits that location of the sewer vent does not impact on the car parking area. As no pedestrians are to enter the centre from Segenhoe Lane, its location will not impact on pedestrian access to the centre. Importantly, this was not raised as a contention and the agreed amended parking plan does not require its relocation.

62. I accept the submissions of the applicant and the condition can be deleted.

Final orders

63. Before final orders can be made conditions reflecting the findings in the judgment will need to be prepared by the parties. The conditions should be prepared within 7 days from the date this judgment is handed down. Following the filing of the conditions, final orders will be made in chambers that state:

1. The appeal is upheld.

2. DA-2015/259 for alterations and additions to an existing residential dwelling and change of use to a child care centre at 16 Segenhoe Street, Arncliffe is approved subject to the conditions in Annexure A.

3. The exhibits are returned with the exception of exhibits A, B and 3.

Addendum made on 10 August 2016

64. In accordance with the terms of paragraph [63] of my judgment of 3 August 2016, the parties provided the amended conditions of consent. I am satisfied that the conditions reflect my findings; as a consequence I make the following orders.

1. The appeal is upheld.

2. DA-2015/259 for alterations and additions to an existing residential dwelling and change of use to a child care centre at 16 Segenhoe Street, Arncliffe is approved subject to the conditions in Annexure A.

3. The exhibits are returned with the exception of exhibits A, B and 3.
