      Works
62.   Demolition must be undertaken in a manner that causes no detrimental effect upon the
      amenity of the neighbourhood by reason of the creation of excessive noise, lighting, air-borne

      prior to the commencement of demolition works.
      The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of waste for the
      effective reuse and recycling of such materials. Segregated wastes attract significantly
      reduced disposal fees at the landfill with some items free. Higher gate fees are charged for
      mixed waste.
      Waste storage areas must provide for adequate separation of all reusable, recyclable and
      waste materials. These must be located so that they are convenient and safe to use.
      The Plan must contain the following information:
      a. Traffic Management Plan prepared by suitably qualified person for the demolition works
         period. All required traffic control signage must be in accordance with the Manual of
         Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD);
      b. All required erosion and sediment control measures to be employed or undertaken
         during the demolition works to ensure sediment and other material from the demolition
         does not leave the site;
      c. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained
         in accordance with current best practice standards until all disturbed surfaces are
         stabilised;
      d. The areas for the storage and separation of waste shown on a site plan;
      e. A waste management table as indicated below is to be completed showing how waste
         material is to be segregated - recycled – reused or disposed;

      commences. Notification must be made using Form 65: Notification of licensed asbestos
      removal work, demolition work or emergency demolition.
70.   All building materials containing asbestos products are wrapped and disposed of in
      accordance with the Public Health Regulation 2006 and the Environmental Protection

PLANNING
     Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003
1.   There may be a requirement to establish a Cultural Heritage Management Plan and/or obtain
     approvals pursuant to the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (ACH Act).
     The ACH Act establishes a cultural heritage duty of care which provides that: “A person who
     carries out an activity must take all reasonable and practicable measures to ensure the
     activity does not harm Aboriginal cultural heritage”. It is an offence to fail to comply with the
     duty of care. Substantial monetary penalties may apply to individuals or corporations
     breaching this duty of care. Injunctions may also be issued by the Land and Resources
     Tribunal, and the Minister administering the ACH Act can also issue stop orders for an activity
     that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or the cultural heritage value
     of Aboriginal cultural heritage.
     You should contact the Cultural Heritage Unit on 07 3247 6212 to discuss any obligations
     under the ACH Act.
     Equitable Access and Facilities
2.   The plans for the proposed building work have NOT been assessed for compliance with the
     requirements of the National Construction Code - Building Code of Australia (Volume 1) as
     they relate to people with disabilities. Your attention is also directed to the fact that in addition
     to the requirements of the National Construction Code as they relate to people with
     disabilities, one or more of the following may impact on the proposed building work:
     a.    the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Commonwealth);
     b.    the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991 (Queensland); and
     c.    the Disability (Access to Premises – Buildings) Standards.
     Development Compliance Inspection
3.   Prior to the commencement of the use, please contact Council's DA Planning Section to
     arrange a Development Compliance Inspection.
     Nature and Extent of Approved Development
4.   The assessment of this development was based on a proposal having a maximum site cover
     of 52%, as depicted on the Approved Plans.
     Infrastructure Charges
5.   All developments and/or changes to existing developments may require payment of
     “Infrastructure Charges” (as applicable) in accordance with Council’s “Charges Resolution”
     made pursuant to the planning legislation and regulations current at the time of issue.
     Sustainability
6.   In line with Noosa Council’s Corporate Plan, Council seeks to encourage sustainable building
     design for residential and commercial development. Council encourages the use of
     sustainable building materials, energy efficient fittings, solar hot water, photovoltaic systems
     (including the use of inverter/charges), water saving devices and rainwater harvesting. For
     further information go to http://www.noosa.qld.gov.au/sustainable-homes
     Performance/Maintenance Bond
7.   Where the works include Council assets (construction of new or modifications to existing) a
     portion of the performance bond will be retained as a “maintenance bond” as described in
     Council’s Planning Scheme Policy 5 Engineering Design Standards – Roads, Drainage and
     Earthworks. Alternatively the developer may submit a separate “maintenance bond” at the
     completion of the works.
     The bond amount will be:
     a.    5% of the agreed value of the works or



                                                                                          Page 11 of 15

Page 12

      b.    $1500, whichever is the greater amount
8.    A minimum on-maintenance period of 12 months will apply to all municipal works and
      thereafter until such time as the works are performing in accordance with the approved
      design unless noted otherwise in the conditions of the operational works permit approval.
      Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Levy
9.    The QLeave levy must be paid prior to the issue of a development permit where it is required.
      Council will not be able to issue a Decision Notice without receipt of details that the Levy has

      Co-ordination of Operational Works Assessment
10.   Additional application fees apply to Operational Work applications where the different
      aspects of the works are lodged separately. Significant savings in application fees will result
      if all works are lodged in a single application.
      Preparation of a Preliminary Construction Management Plan
11.   A preliminary Construction Management Plan must be submitted with the Operational Works
      application and must address the following:
      a.    traffic management during all aspects of the construction phase including:
            i.     a Traffic Management Control Plan in accordance with the Manual of Uniform

            durations
      d.    establishment of a communication protocol with the general public, adjoining owners,
