1 Ellerslie Road, Battery Point

The Hobart City Council Planning Committee has approved a development application for partial demolition, alterations, and extension for 1 Ellerslie Road, Battery Point.

The development for the Royal Hobart Bowling Green includes upgrades of the ladies' facilities to meet current standards, and for a new canopy to be attached over the existing club rooms’ entry.

The work must meet the criteria for the Historic Heritage Code – Heritage Place and Place of Archaeological Potential.

199 Macquarie Street, Hobart

The Hobart City Council Planning Committee has refused a development application for the partial demolition, alterations and extension to office building and alterations to carparking and access for 199 Macquarie Street, Hobart.

The proposal was refused because it was considered that it does not meet the planning scheme requirement to allow for a transition in height between the proposed works and the adjoining buildings at 201 Macquarie Street.

7 Joynton Street, 1A Honora Avenue, 5 Joynton Street, New Town

The Hobart City Council Planning Committee has deferred a development application for two multiple dwellings (one existing, one new) and associated works for 7 Joynton Street, 1A Honora Avenue, and 5 Joynton Street, New Town.
