Notice of Proposal – Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure – Domain Carpark, Stanley Street, Bathurst
Council has received a proposal from NRMA for a licence agreement to allow the installation and operation of electric vehicle fast charging infrastructure at the Domain Car Park on Stanley Street, Bathurst.
The land concerned is a portion of Lot 25, Section 72, DP 758065.
The Domain Carpark is a Crown Reserve (Reserve Number 66907) managed by Council under the Bathurst Regional Council - Council Managed Crown Land Plan of Management. Under this plan, car parking infrastructure, including electric vehicle charging, is a permitted purpose for which a licence can be granted in this location.
NRMA propose to install 2 x DC fast chargers and one AC destination charger, utilising 6 parking spaces. All costs associated with the installation and maintenance of the Electric Vehicle charging infrastructure will be the responsibility of NRMA. Council will negotiate a market based annual licence fee with NRMA.
A map of the proposed licence area is included here, as well as the proposed layout of the electric vehicle chargers and associated infrastructure. Note footpath access will be preserved.
The term of the proposed licence is five years with an option to extend for a further five years.
The entity to whom it is proposed to grant the licence is:
NRMA Electric Highways Pty Ltd
ABN 35 659 311 163
Submissions may be made in writing to Council concerning the proposal until 10am 21 October, 2024 via the submission form below, to council@bathurst.nsw.gov.au or The General Manager Bathurst Regional Council PMB 17 Bathurst NSW 2795.
UPDATE: 23 September 2024
Council notes that the Domain Carpark and Stanley Street are closed for specific events.
In view of this and to protect these events Council has previously advised NRMA that, if the proposal is to proceed, Council will require a clause be included in the licence agreement which allows closure of Stanley Street with due notice given to NRMA.
