Additional landscaping will be provided at the front of the site to increase the landscaped
amenity, while a full redevelopment of the site is currently being planned for construction
within the next 2 years.

3         Provide additional detail on the various surfacing materials. The detail must
          include but not be limited to:
          (a)       The surfacing for the carparking spaces. Please note that the
                    surfacing must be suitable for people with disabilities between the
                    dedicated car space and the entrance to the shop;
          (b)       The surfacing for the main driveway area extending from the road
                    frontage to the carparking area. Due to the site’s location it is
                    expected that sealing of the driveway is required. It is noted that the
                    previous approval for vehicle hire required the driveway and car
                    parking areas to be sealed;
          (c)       The surfacing for the scooter spaces and the adjacent manoeuvring
                    area. The manoeuvring area must be sufficient to cater for both the
                    scooter spaces and the manoeuvring area for car space 4;
          (d)       Stormwater drainage and discharge;
          (e)       The measures to be undertaken to ensure the viability of the retained
                    vegetation within the site and on the adjoining properties.

The carparking area (including the entrance and scooter spaces) is proposed to be sealed
with a spray bitumen seal, with some of the existing concrete areas at the front of the site
to be retained. The driveway is to be reshaped to include appropriate stormwater pits and
grades to allow for stormwater to drain to the Noosa Drive frontage without impacting
adjoining properties. Considering there is no increase in roof area and the site is partially
sealed, hydraulic details can be provided as part of the building approval for the building
fit out.

The trees at the rear of the site are within 3 metres of the property boundary and are not
subject to the Biodiversity Overlay. Regardless, tree protection fencing will be provided at
the time of he sealing to ensure the root zones of the existing trees at the rear of the site
are retained as part of the sealing and linemarking works. An arborist report outlining
measures to maintain the health of the tree during the sealing works will be submitted as
part of the performance bond process.
