                The car park shall be available for use by members of the public. Signposting shall be provided
                in accordance with the requirements of the Shire Engineer at the access point. Parking spaces
                available for public use inside the building shall be clearly marked. Car Park entry may be subject
                to payment of a fee.

               Applicant’s Request
               The applicant has requested existing condition 3.1 be amended to include additional details
               specifying that alternative car parking bay dimensions and aisle widths must be in accordance with
               the above, unless supported in writing by an RPEQ.

                The developer shall provide a minimum of 174 parking bays (with a maximum of 22 bays in
                tandem configuration) and 3 loading bays on site. Each car parking space shall not be less than
                5. 5 metres in length and not less than 2.6 metres in clear width. Parking bay dimensions are
                to be in accordance with the above, unless otherwise supported in writing by an RPEQ.
                Aisle widths are desirable 6.5m width but shall not be less than 6.0 metres as detailed, on
                Council’ s Standard Drawing No. 9515. For blind aisles an aisle extension of 2m is to be provided
                to permit vehicle manoeuvre out of the end bays. Extra width is required on the end bay adjoining
                a blind aisle. Aisle widths are to be in accordance with the above, unless otherwise supported
                in writing by an RPEQ.
                Areas on which vehicles will be driven and/or parked are to be provided with a flexible or other
                pavement surfaced with bitumen seal coat, asphaltic or other concrete properly constructed and
                maintained to good engineering standards to the satisfaction of the Council’s Engineer. Plans
                and specifications for such areas including footpath crossings are to be submitted for approval
                prior to issue of a Building Permit. Vehicular access to and from the site is to be designed so as
                to ensure that sufficient area is available for manoeuvring and turning to permit forward
                movement to and from the road.
                The entrance to the car park shall have a minimum clearance of 2.1m as defined in Australian
                Standard A.S. 2890.1-1986 Car Parking Facilities. Allowance shall be made for required height
                of service vehicles, where applicable.
                The car park shall be available for use by members of the public. Signposting shall be provided
                in accordance with the requirements of the Shire Engineer at the access point. Parking spaces
                available for public use inside the building shall be clearly marked. Car Park entry may be subject
                to payment of a fee.

               Assessment of Request
               The requested amendments to the condition wording are supported, as they are underpinned by a
               Traffic Engineering Response certified by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland
               (RPEQ). This response has been reviewed and endorsed by Council’s Development Engineering
               team. The revised condition wording facilitates the adoption of alternative car parking dimensions,
               which have been formally certified by an RPEQ and are considered to comply with relevant
               engineering standards and performance outcomes.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 3.1 be amended to read as follows:

                The developer shall provide a minimum of 174 parking bays (with a maximum of 22 bays in
                tandem configuration) and 3 loading bays on site. Each car parking space shall not be less than
                5. 5 metres in length and not less than 2.6 metres in clear width. Parking bay dimensions are
                to be in accordance with the above, unless otherwise supported in writing by an RPEQ.
                Aisle widths are desirable 6.5m width but shall not be less than 6.0 metres as detailed, on
                Council’ s Standard Drawing No. 9515. For blind aisles an aisle extension of 2m is to be provided
                to permit vehicle manoeuvre out of the end bays. Extra width is required on the end bay adjoining
