The applicant is advised that the proposed tandom parking under Blocks K & M is not an
acceptable solution to providing car parking spaces for a commercial business. Please
provide amended drawings showing the car park layout to comply with AS/NZS2890. 1-2004.

The Australian Standard for Off-street car parking does not address the issue of tandem
parking. However it is noted that Brisbane City Council's Design Guidelines for On-site
Carparking states:-

Tandem parking spaces may be acceptable in some situations as follows.-

+ Residential developments where both spaces are attached to one unit: and

+ Reserved car parking areas where both spaces are allocated to a single tenant.

Tandem spaces are not appropriate in visitor or public car parking areas.

As detailed previously in Item 17 of this Response, the tandem spaces are to be allocated to:

+ the 6 penthouse units will each be permanently allocated a tandem space (ie. for
parking of two cars) — this allocation exceeds Council's car parking requirement
for accommodation units (ie. 1 space per accommodation unit + 1 space per 10
accommodation units);

+ the remaining non-penthouse unit will utilise a tandem space (ie. for parking of
two cars) - this allocation exceeds Council’s car parking requirement for
accommodation units (ie. 1 space per accommodation unit + 1 space per 10
accommodation units)

+ Resort staff will be allocated car parking within Blocks G, H and 1, by resort
management, which will be provided within 10 tandem spaces (ie. parking for to
20 cars).

Accordingly the provision of the tandem spaces is considered an acceptable parking solution
for the proposed integrated resort development.

It is noted that the width of carparking spaces is required to be measured from the inside of
line marking. Please submit amended plans ensuring all spaces are sufficient in width. For
example, the width of spaces under Block V appear to be approximately 2.3m wide, whereas
they require a minimum width of 2.5m.

Clause 4.4.1 (Making of Parking Spaces) of AS/NZS2890.1:2004 Parking Facilities Part 1:
Off-Street Car Parking states:-

Where linemarking is used to separate adjacent parking bays, the nominal width of the
parking spaces shall be measured from the centre-line of the pair of marked lines bounding
the space.

Accordingly, the car parking space widths as proposed are considered acceptable.

Please provide separate A3 plans of each building at an appropriate scale to check
consistency with requirements of AS/NZS2890. 1.2004.

Due to the significant amendments of the development, a full set of amended plans have

been resubmitted. This submission includes separate A3 plans of each building at an
appropriate scale to check consistency with requirements of AS/NZS2890. 1.2004.
