15.01.2022 PPD recently represented Allies Wines of the Peninsula at VCAT after South Gippsland Shire refused an application to establish a vineyard at Foster. The purpose of the application was to relocate to Foster and double production to 5.0 ha & 2000 cases per annum! The applicant being a recognised vigneron and grower for some 15 years in the Peninsula. The planning department considered that the whole of the site should have been planted out (9.0ha), and therefore the applicati...on was considered spurious.& unviable and only made to demonstrate that a dwelling was required for on site management. Expert evidence at the hearing was provided by Mr Ben Rose of Performance Viticulture. VCAT overturned the Council refusal and the planning permit was issued.

15.01.2022 PPD recent involvement in a planning application of a different and more modest nature, being a swimming pool. The reason why a planning permit was required was because the pool was located on a site within a Heritage Overlay. The site had been subject to a large two storey addition/basement garage at the back of this corner lot, which left only the front yard to locate a swimming pool. The addition completed by the previous owners (2011) also introduced perimeter planting (...hedging) with steel picket fencing, which effectively screened off the yard from the street. Boroondarra CC refused the application because of a policy that "discouraged pools" in the front setback. The starting point here was for the development of photo montages to identify how the landscape and gardens would screen/filter any view of an inground swimming pool. The montages were based on the landscape design of Ian Barker Garden Designs. The montages were prepared by Concept to Completion Building Designers. The application was subsequently approved at VCAT.

09.01.2022 PPD acted for Digga Demolition in obtaining planning approval for the expansion (2.4 to 8.5ha) of the Commercial/Demolition Waste recycling Facility at Moriac. This facility recycles all the brick, tiles and concrete rubble from demolition sites, including timber and gardens from residential sites. All recycled products sold, with masonry (concrete,brick,tiles) turned into road base, timber which is chipped for landscape products and former gardens also chipped and turned into mulch. This facility has been successfully in operation for some 15 years.

08.01.2022 Excellent examples of photographic montages prepared for a extension above a garage in Ringwood. These images prepared by the building designer Chris Groom (CK Building Design). Preparation of before & after made a compelling case for the approval of a building dispensation on the front setback from 7.1m (garage) to 7 9m (first floor extension - master bedroom + ensuite).

02.01.2022 Example of an existing site at Mount Macedon 1.2ha in area which was located in the Rural Conservation Zone in addition to all the usual overlays (Environmental Significance, Significant Landscape, Wild Fire Management) + vegetation removal requirements of Clause 52.17 of the Macedon Ranges Planning Scheme. The site was located in a Bushfire Attack Level 40 (BAL40), being the second highest hazard area. The BAL assessment completed by Dean Platt of Tree Wishes Pty Ltd.... The design of the dwelling was completed by Chris Barnes of Field Office Architecture which displays the level of protection from ember attack over windows and across balconies, in addition to being all steel construction.

01.01.2022 A picture paints a thousand words! Example of before and after using photo montage, this example illustrating a first floor extension to an existing dwelling. Local Council refused the 44m2 addition, based on neighbourhood character and the matter was successfully overturned at VCAT. Montages prepared by Chris Groome of CK Building Design.
