Comment: Access to the site is via boat or ferry with no car parks available on site. The boutique resort
will provide guests with a complimentary car transfer service to and from the Sunshine Coast and
Brisbane airport and Sunshine Coast and Brisbane resident’s homes. The access arrangements proposed
are safe and efficient. The development will not lead to any adverse safety or road condition impacts in
the locality.


EARTHWORKS CODE

   a) To ensure that earthworks do not unreasonably impact on the natural environment or other
       properties with regard to—
          i. land stability (including differential settlement or expansion in reactive soils);
         ii. contamination of land;
        iii. flooding and drainage;
        iv. groundwater, watercourses and wetlands;
         v. loss of native remnant or regrowth vegetation; and
   b) Earthworks are designed and constructed to be structurally sound.

Comment: The proposal does not involve the construction and any new buildings, structures or works.


EROSION CONTROL CODE

The purpose of this code is to ensure:
   a) there is no significant environmental harm caused by the effects of erosion and sediment
       transport associated with development;
   b) disturbed areas are stabilised and restored promptly and effectively; and
   c) disturbance of land is minimised.

Comment: The proposal does not involve the construction and any new buildings, structures or works.


EXISTING SERVICES CODE

   a) Existing Council owned underground infrastructure is protected from potential or actual damage
       caused by development;
   b) Underground infrastructure is accessible for maintenance purposes; and
   c) Existing services are identified and methods of protection and access are implemented in the
       design of the development.

Comment: The site is currently serviced by all required urban services. No new buildings or structure
are proposed requiring provision of additional services.
