response to information request - Jodie Kin Kin
4 July 2022 Noosa Council [email protected] RE: Response to Information Request MCU22/0054 – 315 Sister Tree Creek Rd, Kin Kin Council issued an information request on 27 April 2022. The applicant provides the following additional information in response to the items: 1. Provide a revised site, proposal, floor and elevation plans that includes the following for all plans: a. Appropriate title blocks and plan/ reference numbers b. Appropriate Scale c. North point where relevant d. Proposed access to the site e. Dimensioned front and side boundary setbacks for proposed structures Please provide a set of updated site plans with appropriate plan references and showing each building setback more than 10m from Sister Tree Creek Rd. 2. Provide further information as to landscape treatments that will visually screen and soften the development from Sister Tree Creek Road. An existing line of lilly pilly’s up to 5m in height are located along the Sister Tree Creek boundary. The vegetation is to be trimmed and supplemented around the existing driveway to ensure appropriate sightlines, while also providing a visual screen to the proposed cabins. 3. Provide further information as to how this existing dwelling is to be used in context with the current proposal. If the premises are to be used for short term accommodation the application and proposal plans will need to be amended to reflect the proposed use. The applicant indicates the existing house at the top of the hill is to be used as a dwelling house and not for short term accommodation (once the cabin use commences).

4. Provide additional detail that demonstrates how the proposed use will be
accessed, ie; whether that be via Sister Tree Creek Road or Gradys Lane.
Please note that on a preliminary assessment it is unlikely that Council will
support vehicle access to the proposed development. The detail must be
prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional
Engineer of Queensland) and include, but not be limited to:
a. a driveway design that is generally in accordance with Council’s
standard drawing RS-056; and
b. an analysis to demonstrate how the access is in accordance with the
relevant standards and the access can function safely
c. an assessment of the existing intersection of Sister Tree Creek Road
and Grady’s Lane with comment in regard to any necessary
improvements to cater for the additional traffic movements
A new compliant rural driveway is to be constructed along Sister Tree Creek (where the
existing access is located) and is to be used for the short-term accommodation use. The
existing Gradys Lane entrance is to be restricted in its use for the existing rural grazing
use only. Recor Engineering has provided a sight distance assessment to demonstrate
compliance with AS2870.1 for the 80km/hr road frontage.
The driveway can be constructed in accordance with the standard drawing and a condition
is recommended in this regard, without requiring a further Operational Works application.
5. Provide stormwater and effluent management plans for the proposed
development. The management plans must be prepared by a suitably
qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland)
and include, but not be limited to:
a. an on-site effluent system capable of servicing the proposed
development;
b. an on-site stormwater management system that is capable of
servicing the proposed development, and
c. stormwater and effluent management plans that are consistent with
a site specific geotechnical report
Uneartherd Geotechnical has undertaken a detailed geotechnical site report and
wastewater design report. The results demonstrate the soils are sandy clay typical of the
Kin Kin locality and the water table in this location is low. Recommendations of the
reporting include the installation of two Advanced Environmental Systems (AES) catering
for the 4 cabins.
The effluent disposal locations are included on the revised plans and also show the
indicative locations for stormwater absorption trenches complying with AS/NZ 3500.3.2
Parts 6.4 and 6.5. The trenches are to be located onsite at time of construction in
accordance with the wastewater design report.
6. Provide an emergency flood plan that demonstrates how occupants will act
in the event of a flood event, cutting access to the township of Kin Kin and
surrounding towns. The emergency flood plan is to be prepared by a
suitably qualified person.
Please find attached a site specific flood management plan seeking for the
owners/caretakers to manage the site to ensure residents ‘shelter onsite’ during extreme
weather events.
