In particular, the design of the front façade, sitting directly behind the heritage building, is overly complicated and confuses the relationship between new and old. The design and pallet of materials should be reviewed; 2.2 the integration of the old and new buildings should be reviewed to improve the functionality of the hotel at the ground plane; 2.3 the internal layout and planning of the heritage building requires further review. It is noted that the separate use and fitout of the heritage building could affect the vitality of the development and the locality; (Cont’d) I:\CPS\ADMIN SERVICES\COMMITTEES\DRAFT MINUTES\DA130307MINS.DOC DESIGN ADVISORY COMMITTEE -8- 7 MARCH 2013 2.4 the way in which the new canopy is detailed and its junction with the heritage building requires further resolution; 3. notes that the signage for the hotel is required to comply with City’s Signs Policy.

DA30/13 623 (LOT 1) WELLINGTON STREET, PERTH – PROPOSED 17 LEVEL COMMERCIAL AND SPECIAL RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT CONTAINING 118 ROOMS – TRANSFER AND BONUS PLOT RATIO BACKGROUND: SUBURB/LOCATION: DA/BA REFERENCE: REPORTING OFFICER: RESPONSIBLE DIRECTOR: 623 Wellington Street, Perth 2013/5026 Mark Close Martin Mileham, Director Planning Development 19 February 2013 Map and coloured perspective for Wellington Street, Perth DATE: MAP / SCHEDULE: LANDOWNER: APPLICANT: ZONING: APPROXIMATE COST: and 621 Shafto Investment Pty Ltd DesignInc Perth Pty Ltd (MRS Zone) Central City Area zone (City Planning Scheme No. 2 Precinct) Citiplace (P5) $14.89 million BACKGROUND Council, at its meeting of the 28 August 2012, approved a 15 level commercial and special residential development containing 88 rooms including a transfer of plot ratio and request for bonus plot ratio at the subject site. The application included 213m2 of the available plot ratio floor area from 474 (Lots 1-75) Murray Street, Perth, and a bonus for the integration of a pedestrian facility providing the northern component of a link between Wellington and Murray Streets. In considering that application, the Design Advisory Committee (DAC), at its meeting of 2 August 2012, advised that it: I:\CPS\ADMIN SERVICES\COMMITTEES\DRAFT MINUTES\DA130307MINS.DOC DESIGN ADVISORY COMMITTEE -9- 7 MARCH 2013 “1. supports the awarding of a 10% plot ratio bonus for the provision of a 2.45 metre wide pedestrian link along the western side of the site given the strategic importance of the continuation of this link between Shafto Lane and the City Link project and given the likelihood of the adjoining site (fronting Murray Street) being developed to incorporate a complementary upgrading of the existing right of carriageway; 2. supports the proposed building height in the context of adjacent development (existing and proposed) and noting the relatively minor extent of the encroachment into the height plane; 3. considers that the design is unresolved and requests that more detail be provided to: 3.1 demonstrate the effectiveness of the louvers as a cladding treatment and shade device; 3.2 improve the presentation of the relatively blank eastern elevation; 3.3 ensure there is adequate servicing of the building, including provision of utilities particularly at ground level, back of house facilities, waste management and air conditioning.” The applicant provided additional information and plans addressing items 3.1 through 3.3 above. The revised details were considered satisfactory by Council. In this regard, the applicant demonstrated the effectiveness of the fins, an appropriate and interesting treatment to the eastern elevation consistent with other high quality buildings, and ensured servicing does not compromise the visual amenity of the building or the locality. A waste management plan was a requirement of the approval, however, a loading bay will be required on Wellington Street for refuse collection, laundry services and the like given that “Shafto Lane” is a right of carriageway which cannot legally be impeded by standing vehicles. DETAILS The site is 426m2 fronting Wellington Street. The applicant proposes to increase the height of the approved hotel from 15 to 17 levels and increase the room numbers from 88 to 118. The amendment proposes an increase in height by six metres from 48.1 metres to 54.1 metres. Other minor internal changes are outlined in the table below. The development includes: Ground Level A lobby, hotel office, associated facilities, and two commercial tenancies. The development is set back 2.45 metres from the neighbouring lot to the west (containing the Telstra Building) to accommodate a pedestrian link from Wellington Street to the adjacent site to the south fronting Murray Street. The proposed modifications to this level are minor reconfigurations only. I:\CPS\ADMIN SERVICES\COMMITTEES\DRAFT MINUTES\DA130307MINS.DOC DESIGN ADVISORY COMMITTEE - 10 - 7 MARCH 2013 Level 2 A recreational area for hotel patrons including pool facilities and a health club. The modifications at this level include additional plant, business meeting rooms and a hotel administration area. Level 3 The administration offices, a business centre and meeting rooms for the patrons of the hotel have been replaced with eight hotel rooms of approximately 32m2 (the standard modular size throughout). Level 4 The level four plant, staff and four hotel rooms have been replaced with eight hotel rooms. Level 5 – 8 Levels five through eight remain the same incorporating eight hotel rooms. Levels 9 – 10 The south western hotel room is deleted to accommodate a plant area and retains the other seven hotel rooms. Levels 11 – 17 Contain eight hotel rooms per floor. Roof Plan This level includes a 101m2 plant room, including a lift and stair located centrally on the western boundary. DEVELOPMENT REQUIREMENTS: The proposal’s compliance with the City Planning Scheme No. 2 development requirements is summarised below: Development Standard Maximum Plot Ratio: Proposed 7:1 (2,982m2) Required / Permitted Base Plot Ratio 5:1 (2,130m2) Including: Transfer of plot ratio of 10% Maximum Bonus of 50% 7:5:1 (3,195)m2 Bonus plot ratio approved previously for pedestrian link of 10% Proposed Special Residential Bonus of 20% Building Height: - Wellington Street A height of 54.1 metres along the street frontage with a portion of the building above 33.25m projecting above the height plane.
