for water sensitive urban design, including any provisions of the Territory Plan or supporting policy documents.

Parking, access and movement

Parking should generally be in accordance with ACT Government planning requirements, including in relation to cars, motorcycles and bicycles.

Development proposals must demonstrate that buildings will be Electric Vehicle (EV) ready and accommodate EV charging infrastructure. This includes ensuring that parking spaces include appropriate wiring, a covered outlet, and a final connection point for an EV charger. Capacity, wiring provision and load management must also form part of infrastructure considerations.

At a minimum, the following EV ready infrastructure must be provided for parking spaces associated with Residential, Commercial Accommodation, and Community Facility (Institutional Facility) uses:

       * Each residential dwelling must have a minimum of one EV ready parking space.
       * At least 1 car parking space per 4 visitor car parking spaces must be EV ready.
       * Where separate parking is provided for bicycles and/or motorbikes, charging facilities are provided.

For ancillary commercial uses, a minimum of 20% of parking spaces allocated to this use, for both staff and visitors, must be EV ready.

No additional vehicular access points to the site are permitted from Bentham Street.

Pedestrian and cycles links through the site should support convenient access to and from key locations such as Forestry Oval, Yarralumla shops, and public transport. These routes must be available for public use, provide safe and well‑lit passage, demonstrate non‑discriminatory and equitable access, and incorporate suitable way‑finding.

ACT Hospice site
Development of the site for the ACT Hospice, on the northern foreshore of East Basin, is to be integrated with the landscape of the foreshore. The landscape of the site should be of an open parkland character consistent with that of Grevillea Park. The plantings near Morshead Drive should be predominantly native as a backdrop to the deciduous trees along the Lake edge. There should be limited views into the site from Menindee Drive with predominant views from the development being to East Basin and the Molonglo River. The site, which is exclusively for the use of the ACT Hospice, is to be set back from the Lake edge to allow for public recreation and free public access along the immediate Lake foreshore. The site is to be the subject of detailed Site Planning, Design and Development Conditions, in accordance with the Guidelines for Lakeshore Development and the Guidelines for Siting of Buildings in the Lake Flood Zone as set out below. The Design and Siting General Code is also applicable to development, however, in the event of any contradictions the Detailed Conditions below take precedence.
