Dear Sir/Madam
Information Request
Planning Act 2016
I refer to your application and advise that Council requires further information to satisfactorily assess the proposal.
application details
Application No.	MCU22/0140
Street Address:	7 Ruby St Cooroy Qld 4563
Real Property Description:	Lot 616 C 56014
Planning Scheme:	Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)
INFORMATION REQUIRED
The information requested is set out below:
Issue - Design
Acceptable outcome AO14.1 of the Medium Density Residential zone code seeks that development provides for individual buildings, asymmetrical design and offsetting/staggering of buildings presenting to the street.  The proposal does not achieve this.
Information Required
Submit amended plans that comply with Acceptable outcome AO14.1 of the Medium Density Residential zone code.  Explore how enlargement or a change to porches that can assist in this regard.

Issue – garage doors
More than 1 garage door faces the street. Acceptable outcome AO15.2 seeks that there is some separation or staggering.
Information Required
Submit amended plans that comply with Acceptable outcome AO15.2, or corresponding Performance outcome PO15.
Issue- car park
There is a concern that the visitor car space is position to benefit only 2 units, with no access to the other 2 units.
Information Required
Provide amended plans that consider accessibility of the visitor car space for all units.

Issue
From the proposed layout it is not clear that the vehicles parked within the lots can leave the site in a forward gear.
Information Required
Demonstrate how compliance with Performance Outcome PO10 of the Driveways and Carparking Code of the Noosa Plan will be achieved by providing swept paths for each of the proposed garaged vehicles and visitor space – vehicles must be able to leave, the site in a forward gear in a total of 3 movements when all other carparks are occupied.

Issue
The submitted documentation indicates that an “in-principle approval for building over sewer” has been granted by Unity Water.
Information Required
Provide a written copy of Unity Water’s in-principle approval for building over existing sewer infrastructure.

Issue
The submitted documentation shows that the proposed driveway on Ruby St is to be located over an existing stormwater gully pit. The applicant proposes to replace the existing pit with a “V” shaped grate – details of the proposed grate are not provided.
Council is unwilling to approve this solution as “V” shaped grates do not have nearly the same inlet capacity as the existing lintel and kerb inlet pit. If flows bypass this pit due to having a “V” shaped drain this may cause on road flooding, etc downstream.
Information Required
Provide amended plans showing a new inlet pit to the side of the proposed driveway, having the same lintel and kerb inlet configuration as the existing.

Issue
The submitted documentation indicates that:
most of the site is to be filled, including the area between the two main buildings;
surface stormwater in the area between the two main buildings is proposed to flow to the west – there is no indication of how this water will be captured.
Council is concerned that the proposed stormwater arrangement will create a worsening of off-site stormwater conditions – pooling of water on the eastern neighbouring property and increased flows on the western.

Information Required
Provide an amended Stormwater Management Plan demonstrating how the proposed stormwater arrangement will not create a worsening of off-site conditions.
due date for response to information request
The due date for providing the requested information is 5 December 2022. Email your response to [email protected]. Please advise Council of your response to this information request in accordance with section 13 of the Development Assessment Rules.
If you do not provide a response before the due date, it will be taken as if you have decided not to respond to the information request and Council will continue with the assessment of your application.
