Applicants and assessors should refer to the R-Codes Volume 2 for information on the relevant provisions that are applicable to a development.\n2024\nASSESSMENT TEMPLATE\nABOUT THIS TEMPLATE\nResidential Design Codes Volume 2 (R-Codes Vol. 2) has brought about changes to the way that multiple dwellings will be designed, assessed, constructed and – ultimately – lived in.\nThis assessment template is based on work conducted by the Inner City Councils Planning Working Group1, and adapted by the Department of Planning, Lands and Heritage for broader distribution.\nResponsible Authorities are encouraged to adapt this template to best suit their needs. This template is designed to be used in conjunction with, not as a replacement for, the R Codes Vol. 2.\nThis template comprises of 2 parts:\nPART 1\tRecommended information to be submitted by applicant as part of a development application.\nPART 2  \tTemplate for assessment under the R-Codes Vol. 2 (including any local planning framework that amends or replaces the R-Codes Vol. 2). It is recommended that this template is completed by:\n(a) the applicant and submitted as part of the development application; and\n(b) the Responsible Authority for the purposes of assessment.\nR-Codes Vol. 2 is a performance-based policy. While addressing the Acceptable Outcomes is likely to achieve the relevant Element Objectives, they are not a deemed-to-comply pathway and the proposal will be assessed in context of the entire design solution to ensure the Element Objectives are achieved.\nAssessing officers are encouraged to firstly consider the proposal under the Element Objectives, delve into details provided by the applicant (whether these be the Acceptable Outcome or alternate performance solution approach using the relevant Design Guidance) before returning to the principles outlined in the Element Objectives.\nThe onus is on the Applicant to demonstrate that the Element Objectives have been achieved. Responsible Authorities may consider refusal of an application on the basis that insufficient information/materials have been provided to satisfy an Element Objective to the satisfaction of the Responsible Authority. The burden of proof is not on the Responsible Authority but the applicant to demonstrate – by way of example – adequate solar access is achieved if the applicant has not provided the relevant diagrams and calculations to address this subject matter.\nPlease be advised that this assessment template is not intended to replace R-Codes Vol. 2 in terms of being a point of reference for both designers and assessors. Amongst other things, the source document contains Design Guidance, diagrams and example images that are not featured within this template.\n1Inner City Councils Planning Working Group – Town of Victoria Park, City of Perth, City of South Perth, City of Subiaco, City of Vincent\nPART 1 - INFORMATION FOR THE APPLICANT\nIt is recommended that the following information is provided by the applicant when lodging a development application.\n\u000f\nPART 2 - TEMPLATE FOR ASSESSMENT UNDER THE R-CODES VOL. 2\nIt is recommended that the template is used as follows -\nApplicants\nThis document is intended to provide a structure to organise and arrange the supporting material and documentation for preparing and submitting a Development Application, with the onus being on the applicant to demonstrate that an Element Objective has been achieved.\nApplicants are encouraged to complete the ‘applicant sections’ of this document, outlining how the Element Objectives are satisfied. In many (if not most) instances it is expected that written response will be supported by associated drawings or documentation provided by the applicant ‘e.g. – refer to Overshadowing Diagrams page 25 of submission package’.\nThe template can then be included in the application to the Responsible Authority.\nResponsible Authority\nThis docu","cbCaihm4VqJQLOGL","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihm4VqJQLOGL","docx",216606,45,"English","# About this template\n## Parts of the template\n## Assessment approach and responsibilities\n# Part 1 - Information for the applicant\n# Part 2 - Template for assessment under the R-Codes Vol. 2\n## Applicants\n## Responsible Authority","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this assessment template for Residential Design Codes Volume 2?\",\"answer\":\"It provides a structured way for applicants to organize supporting material for a development application and for Responsible Authorities to assess proposals against the Element Objectives in R-Codes Vol. 2.\"},{\"question\":\"Does this template replace R-Codes Volume 2?\",\"answer\":\"No. It is designed to be used in conjunction with R-Codes Vol. 2 and does not include all Design Guidance, diagrams, and example images found in the source document.\"},{\"question\":\"Who is responsible for demonstrating that Element Objectives are achieved?\",\"answer\":\"The applicant bears the onus to provide sufficient information and materials to demonstrate achievement of Element Objectives.
