Dear Madam/Sir

Planning Act 2016
I refer to your application and advise that Council requires further information to satisfactorily assess the proposal.
application details
Application No.	OPW21/0189
Street Address:	13-15 Hilton Esp Tewantin Qld 4565
Real Property Description:	Lot 15 SP 315575
Planning Scheme:	Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)
INFORMATION REQUIRED
The information requested is set out below:
Issue – Earthworks
The earthworks/filling of the site, although not part of the subject application, are shown on a number of submitted plans. It is noted that the plans indicate filling along the eastern and northern boundaries, which is contrary to condition 7 of Amended Referral Response RAP20/0035, dated 12 November 2020.
Condition 7 of RAP20/0035: “Natural ground level must be maintained along the eastern side property boundary, for a minimum width of 1.5 metres from the boundary. No building, structure or fill is to be located within the 1.5 metre northern side setback.”
Information Required
Demonstrate compliance with condition 7 of Amended Referral Response RAP20/0035, dated 12 November 2020.
Provide amended plans as required to comply with conditions of Amended Referral Response RAP20/0035, dated 12 November 2020.

Issue – Driveways
The construction of the proposed driveways will require the placement of fill on road reserve. It is unclear whether any structures will be required to be constructed on road reserve.
Information Required
Provide additional detail on the proposed driveways and property accesses. The detail must be prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ) and include but not be limited to:
Demonstrate that any proposed fill on road reserve will not cause additional ponding on the road reserve; nor redirect water to neighbouring properties; nor create trip hazards;
Provide a cross-section of the proposed driveways where the fill is highest, demonstrating that these areas (to be turfed) can be easily maintained;
any necessary stormwater drainage structures.
Provide RPEQ certification, certifying that the proposed works will not include the construction of any structures (apart from the driveway itself) on road reserve.

Issue – Discrepancy between plans
TOD Consulting’s plans – 19630-C101, Rev C, dated 27/08/2020 and 19630-S03, Rev D, dated 15/06/2021 – show different heights for Retaining Wall RW1 as well as the maximum height of fill. It is unclear what the height of the proposed retaining structures is proposed to be nor the maximum height of fill.
Information Required
Provide amended plans that clearly show:
the height of all proposed retaining structures;
the maximum proposed height of fill; and
natural ground level (1.5m wide), to the eastern and northern boundaries of the subject property.
due date for response to information request
The due date for providing the requested information is 21 October 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.
If you do not provide a response before the due date, it will be taken as if you have decided not to respond to the information request and Council will continue with the assessment of your application.
