1. INTRODUCTION

This Sustainability Management Plan (SMP) provides an overview of the sustainability initiatives that

have been assessed for inclusion in the proposed mixed use development located at 1-3 Otter Street,

Collingwood, VIC 3066.

This SMP provides a comprehensive summary of the assessment of this development against the

applicable ESD frameworks at the planning stage.

An SMP identifies beneficial, easy to implement and best practice sustainability initiatives in line with

the Sustainable Design Assessment in the Planning Process (SDAPP) framework. This includes:-

▪ A practical approach to assessing sustainable development matters during the planning permit

application process.

▪ The consistent inclusion of key environmental performance considerations into the planning

approvals process.

▪ A guide to achieving more sustainable building outcomes for the long–term benefit of the

wider community.

The initiatives proposed provide a holistic approach to sustainability within the built environment with a

focus on energy efficiency, indoor environment quality, management practices, stormwater quality and

water efficiency.

2. KEY ESD INITIATIVES

The key ESD initiatives in the proposed development will include:

▪ Development will exceed the minimum NCC NatHERS requirements of 6-star average/

individual unit not less than 5 star minimum rating requirement and TARGET a minimum 7-star

average with no unit below the 6 star minimum rating.

▪ High-performance fabric and glazing is proposed to reduce solar heat gain and conduction

losses, providing reduced annual energy consumption and reduced peak electrical demand.

▪ Excellent access to public transport and the provision of cyclist facilities.

▪ Excellent indoor environment quality through provision of adequate daylighting to a large

extent of the nominated area, natural ventilation, high-quality LED lighting, low TVOC emission

materials (paints, sealants, wood products) etc.

▪ High water efficiency fixtures and fittings (Water Efficiency Labelling WELS star ratings)

reducing the dependence on potable water use.

▪ Efficient heating/ cooling and hot water systems will ensure significant reductions in

consumption of electricity.

▪ A min 10kW Solar PV system is proposed to serve the common areas of the development.

▪ The development proposes communal spaces on rooftop to facilitate interaction between

building occupants.

On the basis of our review, the application of the Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard (BESS) the

development achieves a BESS score of 60%. The project not only exceeds the minimum planning permit

BESS requirement of 50% but also demonstrates much higher performance with a “Best Practice” BESS

outcome.

Please refer to Appendix A for further information regarding the determination of a development

average BESS score.

4. SUSTAINABLE DESIGN ASSESSMENT IN THE PLANNING PROCESS (SDAPP)

4.1 SDAPP

Sustainability or Ecological Sustainable Development (ESD) are terms that are typically used to describe

the intent to balance the elements of society, economics and the environment.

Sustainable Design Assessment in the Planning Process (SDAPP) is the framework used to achieve ESD

outcomes in the planning process. This process specifically responds to the State Policy Planning

Framework (SPPF), local Structure Plans, Municipal Strategic Statements and planning overlays.

SDAPP was developed to achieve a harmonised approach to ESD outcomes within the planning process

and;

• Recognises the role of the Responsible Authority as a statutory authority for planning matters;

• Provides a framework for consideration of sustainable design elements of planning

applications;

• Offers a consistent method for identifying opportunities for improved environmental building

performance; and

• Ensures that sustainability is considered at the very early design phase.

Through local planning requirements, SDAPP framework calls up a number of sustainability rating tools

which can be used to demonstrate performance criteria have been achieved for the purposes of

planning assessment. These include;

• Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard (BESS): This tool was developed by the

Municipal Association of Victoria (MAV) and is only used within Victoria and limited to the

planning process only.

• Green Star Design & As-Built: This tool is the industry standard green building tool and was

developed by the Green Building Council of Australia (GBCA). Green Star is used broadly by the

property and construction sector, nationally, to drive sustainability outcomes.

SDAPP and the preparation of an SMP outlining performance against referenced sustainability rating

frameworks addresses the specific requirements of the planning scheme as applicable to the Relevant

Authority.

For this development the applicable planning scheme policy specific to ESD is outlined within Table 2.

Table 2 – Sustainability Policy & Assessment Frameworks

Responsible Authority or LGA Planning Scheme Policy

City of Yarra Clause 22.17 Environmentally Sustainable

Development

The particulars of the City of Yarra Planning Scheme Clause 22.17 are discussed below.

LCE21182 7

4.2 YARRA PLANNING SCHEME CLAUSE 22.17

Clause 22.17 applies within the City of Yarra to residential and non-residential development. The

overarching objective is that development should achieve “best practice” in ESD from the design stage

through to construction and operation.

In the context of this policy “best practice” is defined as:

“A combination of commercially proven techniques, methodologies and systems, appropriate to the scale

of development and site-specific opportunities and constraints, which are demonstrated and locally

available and have led to optimum ESD outcomes. Best practice in the built environment encompasses the

full life of the build.”

The application requirements contained in Clause 22.17 are outlined in Table 3. Based on development

type and size, these define the application requirements and the permissible ESD assessment tools that

can be used.

Table 3 – ESD Application Requirements

Per Clause 22.17, this development is utilising the submission of a Sustainability Management Plan

using the Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard (BESS) rating system as the assessment

framework as outlined in Table 4.

BESS

BESS is used for this project, mainly for the following reasons:

• BESS is designed specifically to support the SDAPP framework of the planning which is

consistent with the planning scheme policy Clause 22.17 Environmentally Sustainable

Development of the City of Yarra.

• BESS rating tool is more familiar to the Councils and is a standard approach that is largely

supported by the Council.

• Green Star is a more complex tool that requires rigorous documentation throughout the

project which adds to the project time and cost

• Green Star has more stringent requirements and scoring system for categories like Energy

performance etc. Which can be much easily achieved within BESS without impacting the

objective of “best practice’” target of the project.

5. SDAPP ASSESSMENT FRAMEWORK: BESS

The Built Environment Sustainability Scorecard (BESS) tool is a performance-based tool with a number

of categories and design criteria, similar to other sustainability benchmarking systems. BESS includes

the following sustainability categories:

• Management

• Energy

• Water

• Stormwater

• Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ)

• Transport

• Waste

• Urban Ecology, and

• Innovation

The required design criteria or design performance contributes to an overall percentage (%) category

score. Summation of the individual category scores provides an overall development score. To comply

with minimum requirements, a development must achieve a BESS score of not less than 50%. In

addition, minimum performance must be achieved within the following categories:

LCE21182 9

• Energy – 50%

• Water – 50%

• Stormwater – 50%

• Indoor Environment Quality – 50%

Per SDAPP and Clause 22.17 of the City of Yarra Planning Scheme, the 1-3 Otter Street development

has defined specific ESD initiatives to exceed the minimum BESS outcome. This is summarised in Table 5

(over page).

Please note that the proposed BESS pathway and ESD initiatives are presented for transparency to

identify initiatives which can be readily committed to and have been incorporated in the design at this

stage. However, should activities within detailed design indicate that an initiative cannot be obtained,

such impacts will be compensated through the identification of other initiatives to maintain the same

BESS score commitment.

LCE21182 10

6. ESD INITIATIVES

6.1 MANAGEMENT

Management opportunities during design, construction and operation of a building can have a

significant impact on environmental performance. It is highly important that appropriate practices and

design features are implemented to ensure the facility can be operated per design intent.

Key Issues

The key issues relevant to Management within this development include:

▪ ESD professional

▪ Preliminary thermal performance modelling

▪ Metering

▪ Building users guide

The proposed ESD initiatives address these issues.

Proposed ESD Initiatives

1. ESD Professional

The development has engaged an ESD Consultant to facilitate the implementation of the ESD

commitments and BESS pathway throughout all stages of the project.

2. Preliminary Thermal Performance Modelling

For residential spaces the development uses NatHERS assessment to demonstrate that the

development will exceed the minimum 6-star average/ individual unit not less than 5 star minimum

rating requirement and TARGET a minimum 7-star average with no unit below the 6 star minimum

rating. Thermal modelling is being used to inform passive design at the early design stages of the

project. Refer Appendix B for detailed results.

For the non-residential spaces the development uses NCC Façade Calculator v1.1 to perform

preliminary Section J NCC 2019 Volume 1 – Façade Assessment to inform passive design from the early

stages of design. The preliminary assessment indicates that the thermal performance of the wall-glazing

construction will meet the performance of the Reference case and achieve a complaint.

3. Sub-Metering

Individual commercial tenants will be provided with separate minimum authority metering and all the

major common services (eg. DHW, HVAC, Lifts etc.) will be sub metered separately. Smart metering will

be provided to all apartments for energy consumption tracking and monitoring.

4. Building Users Guide

To encourage and recognise initiatives that will help building users to use the building more efficiently a

building users guide will be prepared for building occupants.

https://bess.net.au/tool-notes/6

LCE21182 11

6.2 INDOOR ENVIRONMENT QUALITY

Indoor Environment Quality (IEQ) is important for the health and well-being of all building occupants

and users. IEQ can be measured utilising metrics such as air quality, lighting and acoustics. Buildings

with higher levels of IEQ have been found to promote general physical and mental health.

Key Issues

The key issues relevant to indoor environment quality within this development include:

▪ Daylight

▪ Natural Ventilation

▪ Outside air

▪ Hazardous material and VOC



1. Daylight.

All habitable spaces within the proposed development receive daylight via windows to the external,

ensuring that all areas receive some extent of natural light. Preliminary daylight modelling indicates that

100% of all bedrooms achieve BESS IEQ 1.2 daylight requirements and 80% of the commercial areas

achieve BESS IEQ 1.4 daylight requirements. Refer to Appendix C for details of the assessment.

2. Natural Ventilation

The development has ensured at least 60% apartments will have access to effective natural ventilation.

This is achieved through Effective cross ventilation or single sided ventilation such that:

- A breeze path lies between 2 ventilation openings either within the room or from one room to

another.

- Ventilation openings located either in opposite or adjacent external walls.

It is determined that 60% of dwellings achieve compliance with BESS natural ventilation requirements.

3. Outside air

For all non-residential areas of the development a minimum 50% increase in outside air will be available

to regular use areas compared to the minimum required by AS/NZS1668:2012.

4. Hazardous material and VOC

All paints, adhesives, sealants and carpets to meet stipulated Green Star VOC limits and all engineered

wood products to meet stipulated Green Star formaldehyde limits.

LCE21182 12

6.3 ENERGY EFFICIENCY

Energy efficiency is considered critical for ensuring that usage of non-renewable forms of energy is

minimised such that continued economic activity does not impact the natural environment.

Additionally, energy efficiency has a direct financial benefit, as it reduces exposure to real escalations in

energy costs.

1-3 Otter Street focuses on passive design features to improve energy efficiency; such features do not

consume operational energy and generally last the lifetime of the building > 50 years.

The development targets to achieve a development average of 7.0-Star NatHERS rating with no

apartment achieving less than 6.0 Stars via high performance building fabric and glazing. This exceeds

the minimum planning requirements.

These initiatives will result in reduced energy consumption and associated impacts of peak electrical

demand.

Key Issues

The key issues relevant to energy efficiency within this development include:

▪ Thermal envelope energy efficiency

▪ Energy efficient building services

▪ Peak electricity demand reduction

▪ Solar PV

▪ Carpark ventilation



1. Thermal Envelope Enhancement

Non-Residential Spaces of the development will achieve an enhanced performance of the building

fabric by demonstrating improvement in required NCC2019 insulation levels to the building fabric

elements roof, walls, ceilings, floor, glazing system etc. This will result in reductions in heating and

cooling energy consumption below the reference case (NCC Section J 2019) and reduced peak electrical

demand reduction.

The Preliminary façade assessment conducted using NCC 2019 Façade calculator v1.1 indicates that the

proposed wall-glazing construction will meet the minimum performance requirements.

Residential Class 2 areas of the development will achieve an area weighted NatHERS rating of not less

than 7-Stars, exceeding the minimum requirements of the NCC providing for reduced HVAC energy

consumption and reduced peak electrical demand reduction. This includes proposing high performance

roof, wall and floor insulation and glazing system.

Please refer to Appendix B for preliminary NatHERS modelling results.

2. Energy Efficient Building Services – High Efficiency LED Lighting

The development is to incorporate high efficiency light fittings and effective pragmatic control

strategies.

LCE21182 13

For the Residential areas provisions of internal lighting with maximum illumination power density

(W/m2) in at least 90% of the relevant building class at least 20% lower than required by Table J6.2a of

the NCC 2019 Vol 1 (Class 2-9) and Clause 3.12.5.5 NCC 2019 Vol 2 (Class 1 & 10.

For the Non-Residential areas provisions of maximum illumination power density (W/m2) in at least

90% of the area of the relevant building class meet the requirements in Table J6.2a of the NCC 2019

Vol1.

4. Energy Efficient Building Services – Heating & Cooling Systems

Due to the size of the dwellings, reverse-cycle heat-pumps provided to all residential dwellings will be

of the multi-split type (e.g. one outdoor condenser with multiple indoor units). These units are excluded

from the requirement to have “star ratings” however units selected for the development will provide an

Annual Energy Efficiency Ratio (AEER) for cooling of not less than 3.4 as determined from the GEMS

Registration Database (https://reg.energyrating.gov.au/comparator/product_types/).

5. Energy Efficient Building Services – DHW Systems

Domestic hot water will be provided by electric CO2 heat pump system.

6. Renewable Energy

A minimum 10kW Solar PV system will be provided for the apartments. This will be located on top of

the Roof plant pending further access provisions.

7. Carpark Ventilation

The carpark for the proposed development will provide with carbon monoxide monitoring to control

the operation and speed of ventilation fans.

6.4 TRANSPORT

Car usage within Australia is responsible for approximately 50% of total transport greenhouse gas

emissions. Additionally, the level of car usage greatly dominates over other forms of transport. Car

usage contributes to airborne pollutants and poor air quality.

To demonstrate the consideration of transportation at this development, the ‘WalkScore’ platform has

been used to determine access to surrounding facilities and public transport.

https://reg.energyrating.gov.au/comparator/product_types/

LCE21182 14

This development scores “Walker’s Paradise” with a Walk Score of 99 and an access to public transport

score of 93 “Rider’s Paradise”. This represents an excellent score in context of reducing transport related

emissions.

Key Issues

The key issues relevant to transport within this development include:

▪ Proximity to public transport and amenities

▪ Bicycle parking

▪ EV infrastructure



1. Public Transport & Amenities Proximity

As evidenced by the “Walkscore” the development is well situated for access to public transport and

amenities.

2. Bicycle Parking

In context of the excellent public transport and walk score, the development will meet the minimum

statutory bicycle parking requirement.

2. EV Infrastructure

The development will provide with facilities for electric vehicle charging, with appropriate signage and

charging infrastructure installed for atleast 1 parking space.

6.5 WATER EFFICIENCY

Water efficiency is deemed critical due to the growing needs of Melbourne’s population, and the

current wasteful actions of general households when it comes to potable water usage. Additionally,

water is a costly resource which is in turn becoming a financial burden.

1-3 Otter Street, Collingwood utilises high efficiency fixtures and fittings and water efficient appliances

to minimise the consumption of the water used.

Key Issues

The key issues relevant to water efficiency within this development include:

▪ Minimising amenity water demand

▪ Fire system test water consumption

▪ Landscape water efficiency

▪ Water sub-metering


LCE21182 15


1. Amenity Water Demand

Selection of fittings, fixtures and water consuming equipment is highly important for achieving a water

efficient building. All fixtures and fittings shall be selected as low flow with high Water Efficiency

Labelling (WELS) star ratings. Table 6 provides a summary of the minimum water efficiency

requirements of amenity fixtures and fittings.

Table 6 – Water Efficiency Requirements

Fixture / Fitting WELS Star Rating Maximum Flow/Flush

Performance

Shower Head ≥4-Star ≥4.5 l/min ≤6.0 l/min

Toilets/Water Closets ≥4-Star ≤3.5l/flush (average)

Taps – Bathroom ≥6-Star ≤6.0 l/min

Taps –Kitchen* ≥6-Star ≤6.0 l/min

^ Flow/flush rate takes precedent to WELS rating.

2. Water-Based Heat Rejection Avoidance.

The development will not utilise water-based heat rejection systems, with all HVAC being air-cooled.

This significantly reduces water demand and reduces risks associated with the heat rejection system

(e.g. microbial growth).

4. Rainwater Harvesting System

The development will include an underground rainwater tank ~6.0 kL with harvested rainwater with

reuse for the purposes of landscape only (to be confirmed in detailed design).

6.6 ECOLOGY

Urban ecology is about promoting and protecting ecosystems and biodiversity. Urban and agricultural

development has caused displacement of species and degradation of natural ecosystems.

Issues

The key issues relevant to ecology within this development include:-

▪ Site vegetation

▪ Communal Spaces


Key ESD Initiatives

1. Site vegetation

To encourage and recognise the use of vegetation and landscaping the site is designed to include

Green areas on the terrace and podium level within the proposed development.

LCE21182 16

Figure 6.1 – Landscape (Level 1)

Figure 6.2 – Landscape (Roof Level)

2. Communal Spaces

To encourage and recognise initiatives that facilitate interaction between building occupants a Rooftop

communal space of ~120 sq.m has been proposed in the development.

6.7 EMISSIONS - STORMWATER MANAGEMENT

Due to the urbanisation of the Melbourne region and our large regional centres, a large proportion of

the land, which was once permeable soil, has been replaced with impervious surfaces presenting

significant implications for our existing stormwater systems and the environment.

Stormwater discharge direct into natural watercourses and bays without appropriate treatment presents

numerous pollution issues, associated with gross pollutants (such as litter, plastics and sediments),

nutrient pollution (nitrogen and phosphorous) which can contribute to algae blooms and free-oils

washed off roadways and carparks.

LCE21182 17

The key issues relevant to stormwater within this development include:-

▪ Stormwater quality management

▪ Stormwater discharge management


Key ESD Initiatives

1. Stormwater Management

The project will meet the stormwater quality objectives of the City of Yarra Planning Scheme Clause

22.16 Stormwater Management (Water Sensitive Urban Design).

Compliance will be demonstrated through Civil MUSIC modelling during detailed design stages

accounting for hydraulics design and legal point of discharge considerations by civil engineer.

6.8 WASTE MANAGEMENT

Construction waste management is considered critical, with up to 40% of landfill in Australia being

attributed to the construction and demolition of buildings. On top of this, there is the on-going waste

from building occupants as a result of their everyday living and consumption. Managing and planning

for such waste is necessary to act on reducing the quantity going to landfill, whilst also ensuring that

materials which can be appropriately recycled are treated separately.

Issues

The issues relevant to waste management include:-

▪ Operation Waste Management Plan

1. Operational Waste Management

Development will include recycling waste storage facility located as conveniently as non-recyclable

waste storage. This must include separate waste collection points for general and recycled waste for the

development.

Attention: Shakira Everett Reference: LCE21182-006

From: Ankita Gurav

Project: 1-3 Otter Street, Collingwood

Subject: Preliminary NatHERS Modelling Report

We provide the following preliminary Nationwide House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) assessment for

the proposed residential development located at 1-3 Otter Street, Collingwood, VIC for the purposes of

town planning.

Energy ratings for the townhouses and apartments have been calculated using FirstRate5 computer

software - version V5.3.1 - formally approved as a House Energy Rating Software under the Nationwide

House Energy Rating Scheme (NatHERS) - Software Accreditation Protocol, June 2012.

Based on the architectural documentation and input data presented in this report, the preliminary ratings

have been calculated for the following 5 units which are deemed to represent a sufficient sample of

dwellings. These are displayed in Figure 1.

The modelling is based on Architectural drawings received 07th July 2021.

MEMORANDUM

To: Milieu Property Date: 07 July 2021

Attention: Shakira Everett Reference: LCE21182-005

From: Ankita Gurav

Project: 1-3 Otter Street, Collingwood

Subject: Preliminary Daylighting Assessment Rev 01

This memorandum has been prepared to demonstrate daylight modelling of habitable rooms within the

proposed mixed-use development at 1-3 Otter Street, Collingwood, for the purposes of town planning.

The modelling presented in this memorandum is for the purpose of demonstrating performance to BESS IEQ

Credit 1.1 ‘Daylight Access – Living Areas’, Credit 1.2 ‘Daylight Access – Bedrooms’, Credit 1.4 ‘Daylight Access –

Non-Residential Areas’.

INTRODUCTION AND BASIS

This preliminary assessment is based on the following:

- Architectural drawings by Hassell, received on 07th July 2021, and

- Glass only data by Hassell, received on 8th June 2021.

Daylight modelling has been conducted on units TH03, Level 3 and Level 4 apartments and Commercial spaces

on Ground level, as indicated in Figure 1.

PRELIMINARY DAYLIGHT ANALYSIS


21182 2

These dwellings and tenancies represent the typical layouts and types within the development. These spaces

have been selected for daylight analysis as they are deemed to conservatively represent the daylight

performance of the development.

All proposed shading elements as well as the neighbouring buildings have been modelled to an accuracy

deemed acceptable for the purposes of this analysis.

BESS DAYLIGHT CRITERIA

For Apartments (Class 2) the BESS requirements for daylight are as follows:

• Credit IEQ1.1 – Daylight Access – Living Areas

80% of all living areas (including kitchens) to achieve a daylight factor greater than DF1.0% for not less

than 90% of the floor area. Additional score is awarded where 100% of living areas including kitchens

comply.

• Credit IEQ1.2 – Daylight Access – Bedrooms

80% of all bedrooms to achieve a daylight factor greater than DF0.5% for not less than 90% of the floor

area. Additional score is awarded where 100% of bedrooms comply.

For Non-Residential spaces the BESS requirements for daylight are as follows:

• Credit IEQ1.4 – Daylight Access – Non-Residential

30% of the nominated area achieves a daylight factor of at least 2%. Additional points are awarded

where it is shown that >60% or >90% of the floor area achieves this daylight factor.

Please refer to the extract of the BESS portal below.

MODELLING INPUTS

Simulation and analysis have been conducted using Integrated Environmental Solution (IES) Virtual Environment

2020 software. All local shading has been incorporated into the model per the current architectural scheme.

Neighbouring buildings and adjacent dwellings have been modelled to account for their impact on daylight

modelling.

The following simulation parameters have been applied to the daylight model, consistent with standard industry

practice, generally in accordance with Green Star Design & As-Built v1.3:

▪ CIE Uniform (overcast) Sky (horizontal illuminance of 10,000 lux)

▪ Surface reflectance values:

o Floors: 30%

o Ceilings: 80%

o Internal walls: 70%

▪ Visible Light Transmittance (VLT)

o External Glazing (Podium Levels): 55%.

o External Glazing (Tower Levels): 18%

o Internal Glazing (assumed to ) : 65%

Please refer to the following figures illustrating the daylight model.

Total percentage of number of Living spaces (including kitchen) achieving DF greater than 1% for at least 90%

floor area 30%

Total percentage of number of Bedroom spaces achieving DF greater than 0.5% for at least 90% floor

area 100%

Please refer Appendix A for contour plots of the daylight factor for all spaces modelled.

This analysis has demonstrated that on the basis of the sample of dwellings modelled, 100% of bedrooms meet

the required BESS daylight criteria (90% of floor area with DF0.5%) and 30% of living areas (including kitchens)

achieve the required BESS daylight criteria (90% of floor area with DF1.0%).

The development achieves compliance with IEQ Credit 1.2, Daylight Access – Bedrooms and IEQ Credit 1.4

Daylight Access- Non-Residential but no points are attained for Credit 1.1 Daylight Access – Living Areas.

We note that the daylight metrics used within BESS are such that it is a highly common outcome that bedroom

spaces will achieve a high level of compliance (primarily associated with glazing are to floor area) whereas living

areas (including kitchens) are generally problematic due to depth from façade and the % floor area compliance

metric used for assessment.

In our professional opinon, we hold no concerns regarding the daylight performance presented within this

development.

Should you have any queries regarding the above, please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned.
