ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES                                                   17 FEBRUARY 2022


        Pavement Design and Construction
        72.   Pavement design for privately owned works must be undertaken in accordance
              with the relevant standards. Structural integrity of the driveway and car park areas
              will remain the responsibility of the property owner/developer and must be certified
              by an RPEQ.
        Works within Road Reserve/Reinstatement
        73.   Safe pedestrian access on all streets in the vicinity of the development must be
              maintained at all times. Should footpath/road closures be necessary to carry out
              construction works, Council’s Engineering Officer must be notified prior to the
              proposed closure and all requirements complied with.
        74.   All frontage works must match neatly with existing road and verge/footpath
              features. Additional works beyond the frontage may be required to provide an
              acceptable transition to existing road and verge/footpath profiles.
        75.   Electrical conduits or other services proposed to be installed within existing and
              proposed road reserves under existing sealed carriageways, concrete pathways,
              concrete/sealed driveways or significant vegetation must be installed by boring.
              Trenching is not permitted, unless specifically approved by Council.
        Pathways
        76.   All pathways must be constructed in accordance with the following requirements:
              a.   All footpath/cycleway must comply with Council’s Standard Drawing SEQ R-
                   065;
              b.   Provision must be made for disabled access at all kerb crossings associated
                   with pathways, in accordance with Council's current standards;
              c.   All paths must have a slip resistant surface, with a colour to match the
                   existing (dark);
              d.   Expansion and contraction joints must provide a flush finish. Installation of
                   joints by saw cutting is preferred to ensure a smooth ride for cyclists;
              e.   Pram ramps where required.
              f.   The required work includes any modifications to ensure the footpath finishes
                   flush with all existing service covers and the like, or alternatively these
                   services are raised or altered, so as not to create a pedestrian safety hazard.
        77.   Pathways must:
              a.   terminate in a manner that ensures smooth transition to existing surfaces for
                   public safety;
              b.   be designed and constructed to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act
                   (DDA), Access to Premises Standard, Austroads and relevant sections of
                   AS1428 Design for access and mobility.
        Site Access and Driveways
        78.   Driveway crossovers must be constructed generally in accordance with Council’s
              Standard Drawing RS-051.
        79.   Any existing unnecessary or redundant property accesses must be removed, and
              the kerb, footpath and verge area reinstated to match the existing footpath and/or
              verge treatments. Grassed verge areas to be reinstated must be provided with 100
              mm topsoil and grass seed or turf, and must be maintained by the developer until
              established.
