Development Assessment Report - 85 Gympie Street, Tewantin

Development Assessment
In accordance with Table 5.8.2 (Operational Work - Engineering Work, Stormwater Drainage,
Water Quality, Drainage & Landscaping) of the Noosa Plan 2020, the development is required to
be assessed against the Applicable Works Code, which in this case is limited to ‘Water Quality
and Drainage Code’.


In terms of compliance with the applicable development requirements, the proposed
development meets the following code requirements:


       Water Quality and Drainage Code
   •   AO1, AO2.1, AO2.2, AO2.3, AO2.4, AO4.5, AO10, AO13.1, AO13.2 – The development will
       ensure stormwater discharge to Gympie Street, in accordance with plans that have been
       prepared by an RPEQ Civil Engineer (Attachment 1), which are understood to be in
       accordance with the standards contained within PSP6 Engineering Design Standards -
       Roads, drainage and earthworks;
   •   AO3.1, AO4.1 – The development will discharge stormwater to kerb adapters within
       Gympie Street, which does not impact upon the functional operation of the street;
   •   AO4.2 – The proposed stormwater infrastructure is not located on private land and
       therefore stormwater easements are not required;
   •   AO4.3 – Council to condition compliance with this assessment benchmark;
   •   AO4.4 – The development will not result in discharge into the sewerage network;
   •   AO5.1. AO5.2, AO5.3, AO6.1, AO6.3, AO11.1, AO11.2, AO11.3, AO11.5, AO11.5, AO12.1,
       AO12.2, AO12.3 – The proposed stormwater works will not require works within mapped
       ecologically sensitive areas;
   •   AO6.2, AO7.1 – AO8.3 – The development does not require stormwater quality in
       accordance with the SPP as well as PSP;
   •   AO9.1 – The development ensures that all captive stormwater is discharged of in a
       manner that does not impact surrounding properties;
   •   AO9.2 – The proposed works does not require retaining structures; and,
   •   AO14.1 – An Erosion and Sediment Control Plan has been provided as part of the Civil
       Engineering Plans (Attachment 1).


Based on the above assessment, no immediate areas of non-compliance with the Water Quality
and Drainage Code were identified that required consideration as part of the Development
Application. Accordingly, the development achieves complete compliance with the code and
should be supported by Council.


We look forward to working with Council throughout the application process. Should you have
