I refer to your application and advise that Council requires further information to satisfactorily assess the proposal.
application details
Application No.	MCU21/0117 OPW21/0199
Street Address:	5 Pearl St Cooroy Qld 4563 54 Elm St Cooroy Qld 4563
Real Property Description:	Lot 2 RP 64750, Lot 2 RP 153798
Planning Scheme:	Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)
INFORMATION REQUIRED
The information requested is set out below:
PLANNING
Issue
The proposed development includes a roofed alfresco area (Unit 1 and 3) setback 4.0m from the Pearl Street front property boundary. In the context of the development, Pearl Street is considered the primary road frontage and therefore a 6.0m setback is ordinarily required.
Information Required
Provide amended plans which increases the minimum setback such that the development demonstrates compliance with Performance Outcome PO12.
Issue
The provide site cover calculation plan does not include the roofed alfresco areas of Unit 1 and 3. These areas are roofed and therefore contribute to site cover.
Information Required
Provide an update site cover plan that includes all roof areas. Should the development exceed the maximum allowable site cover, it is required to be amended to align with Performance Outcome PO10 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code.
LANDSCAPING
Issue
The proposed Landscape Plan does not address all components of the Landscaping Code.
Information Required
Provide an amended landscape plan that demonstrates the following:
All front fences or walls must be set back an average of 1 metre from the front property boundary and articulated to provide visual interest by stepping the design a maximum of 5 metre intervals.
The area of land between the front fence and property boundary is to be landscaped to screen the fence and to contribute attractiveness to the streetscape.
Provide 2 x 45 litre street trees along Pearl Street a minimum of 3 metres from the edge of the driveway and a minimum of 600mm from the back of kerb. Recommended street trees may include Buckinghamia celsissima, Melaleuca viminalis or Harpullia pendula.
Provide 45 litre street trees along Elm Street a minimum of 6 metres apart and a minimum of 600mm from the back of kerb. Recommended street trees may include Buckinghamia celsissima, Melaleuca viminalis or Harpullia pendula.
Replace the coastal trees Cupaniopsis anarcardiodes and Pandanus tree species with hinterland species such as the above mentioned trees for the street frontages.
Provide an amended landscape plan detailing the replacement of the exotic plant species listed on Sheet No. L.000, Issue A with native plant species. Refer to the Noosa Planning Scheme Policy SC6.3.4 Preferred Plant Species, and the Cooroy Framework Character Plan SC6.8.2 4 (d), Open Space and Landscape Treatment.
Provide the Maintenance Specifications for the 12 month maintenance required for the duration of the street trees and a 12 week Maintenance Schedule for the internal landscape areas.
Provide a descriptive Plant Schedule detailing all the plants proposed for the landscape areas within the site.

ENGINEERING
Issue
The downstream land through which the development must discharge appears to be freehold land over which no formal discharge rights currently exist.
Information Required
Please demonstrate that an on-going right to discharge through the downstream land is available to the applicant, either through confirmation from the owner of the land that the current management as an environmental/conservation area will continue and permission to discharge is granted, or through confirmation from the downstream landowner of agreement to register a drainage easement in favour of the development site.
Issue
Detention storage sizing does not appear to be in accordance with QUDM.
Information Required
Please provide revised sizing/modelling and associated engineering drawings for the detention storage proposed for the development site, which achieves the following:
Utilises a hydrologic model and is undertaken using the ensemble storms approach of ARR2019;
Is undertaken generally in accordance with the procedures documented in QUDM Section 5.6.2;
Demonstrates no increase in peak flows for all events up to and including the 1%AEP event, for the range of durations applicable to the downstream land;
Accurately represents the site catchment areas and the position and catchment of each detention storage within the site;
Accurately represents any external catchments conveyed through the site;
Accurately represents any areas of the developed site which bypass the detention storage(s);
Accurately represents the existing catchment and flows reporting to the proposed discharge point from the site, as the comparison for the developed-site discharge; and
Provides existing and developed catchment plans, showing the above areas.
Issue
Stormwater Quality - The triggers stated in the SPP2017 for application of pollutant load reduction objectives are no longer relevant as the SPP2017 has been appropriately integrated into Noosa Plan 2020. PO6 and AO6.2 of the Water Quality and Drainage Code apply to all scales of development triggered by the code.
Information Request
Please provide MUSIC modelling and updated engineering plans which demonstrate compliance with PO6 and AO6.2 of the Water Quality and Drainage Code.
Issue
Submitted drainage design.
Information Required
Is the1200x600 grated inlet outside POD B a sag gully (this is unclear due to limited design levels)? If it is a sag, demonstrate that the minimum 300mm freeboard required by AS3500 to the adjacent building floor levels is achieved.
Provide calculations/HGL analysis demonstrating that the surcharge pit outlet from the site will not surcharge the upstream pits during the design event due to the limited grade.
Issue
The submitted Engineering Plans lack sufficient detail around the road frontage works for the Operational Works component.
Information Required
Please provide a subsequent plan detailing the proposed footpath, kerb and channel, vehicle crossover (demonstrating compliant grades are achieved to prevent water from flowing into the driveway from the street), any verge reshaping works and tie in details to the existing pavement and surrounding features in accordance with Councils/relevant standards.
due date for response to information request
The due date for providing the requested information is 03/11/2021. Email your response to [email protected]. Please advise Council of your response to this information request in accordance with section 13 of the Development Assessment Rules.
