#. Provide on-site vehicle parking in accordance with the approved plans and the Car Parking Action Plan prepared by Cardno and dated 12 October 2015 (Council ref: #4903845).
#. Provide and implement a detailed Implementation and Monitoring Plan that demonstrates how the proposed reduction actions outlined in the “Implementation and Monitoring Plan” section of the Car Parking Action Plan prepared by Cardno and dated 12 October 2015 (Council ref: #4903845) will be implemented for the life of the project. The Implementation and Monitoring Plan should consider project staging, governance, establishment and ongoing costs.
The detailed Implementation and Monitoring Plan must be prepared by a suitably qualified professional and endorsed by the Chief Executive Officer prior to issue of a Development Permit for Building Work for the second (2nd) Tower.
# Following the Commencement of Use of the fifth (5th) tower constructed) an evaluation report on the implementation of the detailed Implementation and Monitoring Plan must be prepared by the Applicant to demonstrate that the assumptions in the report are verified. The upper bound of temporal Parking Reduction calculations (814 car parking spaces) contained in the Car Parking Action Plan prepared by Cardno dated 12 October 2015 (Council ref: #4903845) will be applied to the development unless the evaluation report can demonstrate a higher level of reduction. The evaluation report must be to the satisfaction of the Chief Executive

Officer prior to the issue of a Development Permit for Building Works for sixth (6th) and seventh (7th) Towers.
Note: Where the number of required car parking spaces cannot be provided, the Applicant may enter into an Infrastructure Agreement with Cairns Regional Council to address the deficit of onsite car parking spaces.
Staging Plan #. Provide a plan detailing the proposed staging of the Development,
prior to the issue of a Development Permit for a Material Change of Use for Stage 2.
4. Where required update the Condition numbering. All other Preliminary

C. That the Infrastructure Charges Notice under Negotiated Decision Notice
8/30/186 (Decision Notice #4621288, dated 30 January 2015) is updated with the Infrastructure Charges attached as Appendix 4 to this report.
D. That Council grant Delegation to the Chief Executive Officer to determine
any future Development Application for a Material Change of Use for Stages 2-7 under the Preliminary Approval 8/30/186.
Rationale
• This is a transformative project for the City and the Central Business District. The scale of the project and the involvement of overseas investment is acknowledged and Council’s intent is to ensure the development proceeds as planned and that risk to Council and the community is properly managed.
• The Applicant commissioned a Car Parking Action Plan (prepared by Cardno) which has reviewed opportunities to discourage use and demand for car parking (particularly among residents), incentives to encourage sharing, a car-free lifestyle, and providing an enabling environment to reduce the need to own a car;
• The Car Parking Action Plan includes a number of measures that could be applied to the development which reduce the parking demand. Each measure is weighted differently depending on its effectiveness. The Car Parking Action Plan reports that the ultimate development parking demand ranges between 526 spaces and 1,097 spaces depending on the range of measures selected to reduce parking demand. The demand will vary depending on the management strategies implemented;

Minutes – Ordinary Meeting 28 October 2015 - #4917767
• The range of options to be adopted will be detailed in the Implementation and Monitoring Plan. Whilst Officers anticipate that a minimum of 1,100 onsite parking spaces will be necessary to service the development, the Cardno report nominates that a maximum of 814 spaces will be required once the measures are implemented;
• Where these spaces cannot be provided onsite, the Applicant may enter into an Infrastructure Agreement with Council whereby off-site parking spaces are provided or a monetary contribution is made in lieu of providing physical parking spaces. This alternate recommendation caps that contribution at 814 spaces;
• Prior to the commencement of use of the fifth tower the applicant is required to undertake an evaluation report to assess the effectiveness of the adopted reduction actions. This is a hold point of the development. The remaining two towers will not be able to obtain a Building Permit until Council is satisfied with the findings of the evaluation report;
• The considerations that have been given to the proposed car parking rates are unique to the Nova Cairns project. The Car Parking Action Plan proposes innovative solutions to reduce the overall car parking demand, which must be further refined and detailed to Council’s satisfaction. The reduction actions are subject to a review between Commencement of Use of the fifth (5th) Tower and issue of a Development Permit for Building Works for the sixth (6th) Tower.
• This project presents a unique opportunity for Council to evaluate the success of the parking demand reduction actions and correct prior to the construction of the last two towers.
