Appendix B - Prelodgment notes

                 •       a variety of external finishes to provide an interesting built form and avoid bulky single
                         plane finishes;
                 •       preserving the amenity of adjoining land including sunlight to neighbouring properties.
                         In this regard, the proposed dark colours do not present as lightweight and consideration
                         should be given to use of lighter colours. Furthermore, it should be demonstrated that
                         the amenity of the adjoining premises is preserved including access to sunlight.
                 7.      Performance Outcome 09 of the Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code seeks that
                         multiple dwellings can be accommodated and visited by a wide cross section of the
                         community including people with limited mobility.
                         In this regard the Acceptable Outcome requires:
                        One in three multiple dwelling units:

                   1. is accessible by a safe, continuous and step free path of travel from the street entrance
                      of the property or from a car parking space;
                   2. has a step-free entrance door with opening width of at least 820 millimetres; and
                   3. contains a bathroom on the entry level.
                        The application should demonstrate how it complies with this performance criteria.
                 8.      Landscaping - permeable pavers with in the driveway will not be included in the
                         calculation of landscaping. It is also noted that significant vegetation is located at the
                         property frontage, it is noted that the planning scheme seeks the retention of existing
                         vegetation.


                 Monkeith Kadhum – Development Engineer
                 The main engineering issues, but are not limited to the following:
                 1. Earthworks:

                 •    The site is mapped as landslide hazard and the proposal involves significant earthworks.
                      The proposed development must be supported by geotechnical investigation report/s
                      and engineering design. The geotechnical investigation and engineering design should
                      address/include any required pile works, foundation method and the potential of adverse
                      impact on the stability of the adjoining properties.

                 2. Frontage works:

                 •    A public pathway abutting the kerb line at an appropriate width should be provided along
                      the full frontage of the site and be extended where appropriate to connect with adjoining
                      sections of pathway.
                 •    An access driveway at compliant grades and profile (refer to AS2890.1) should match
                      the existing grassed verge without the need for retaining walls, steep batters or edging
                      that could pose trip hazards, fall hazards or maintenance issues to Council.
                 •    A large gum tree/s on the right-hand front corner should be retained.

                 3. Parking Area:

                 •    All parking spaces and manoeuvring and turning area must be in compliance with
                      AS2890.1 and for the use of a standard B99 vehicle.

                 4. Stormwater Management Plan:
                  This document is a record of prelodgement discussions and will not be made available for public viewing. Prelodgement
                  discussions are conducted to explore development options and requirements, identify issues and provide guidance to prospective
                  applicants about Council’s policies for development. The recorded discussion items and outcomes in no way imply or commit to
                  an approval of the proposal on the part of Council or Council officers, nor guarantee that all potential issues associated with a
                  development proposal have been raised / identified. When a formal development application is lodged, the proposal will be
                  assessed on its planning merits in accordance with Council’s policy framework existing at the time of the assessment.
