M2677 - Information request response

.




Response – Item 5
Refer to Morgan Consulting Engineers response and plans included in Attachment A. Refer to the updated Site Based
Stormwater Management Plan (20169-SBSMP-Rev 4), which outlines the considerations given to the allowance for the 1%
AEP event at the end of the planning period 2100.

Issue: Access
It is not at all clear that the proposed parking bay dimensions comply with the requirements of AS/NZS 2890.1-2004,
particularly for some of the bays located adjacent to walls together with having columns between virtually all of the
resident parking spaces. Similarly, the visitor parking bay adjacent to the pool does not appear to comply.

Control of u-turn movements need to be considered.

Information Request:
6.     Provision of more detail on the plans, including dimensions of the bay widths together with typical column
       dimensions and their position along the sides of parking bays.

Response – Item 6
The architectural plans have been amended, in consultation with TTM traffic consultants, to incorporate the design
requirements and dimensions as requested by Council above (refer to Attachment B).
Information Request:
7.      Modify the access concept to include “no u-turn” signs within the central median on Eumundi Noosa Road at each
        end so that u-turns are prohibited around the northern end of the island for entry to the development from the
        south, and so that u-turns are prohibited at the southern end of the island for exit from the development toward
        the north. Those u-turns movements should be restricted to the roundabouts located in each direction along
        Eumundi Noosa Road.

Response – Item 7
TTM Group traffic consultants have reviewed this Information Request item and advised as per the previous application
that the “u-turn” signage is no longer a standard sign within the Manual of Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD). As
such, TTM recommends that Council consider an alternative solution, such as double barrier lines. This requirement can
form part of the conditions package pending Council’s approval of the application.

Issue – Building 1 western façade
Condition 7 of the existing approval seeks for Building 1 street (west) elevation to be provided with at least 1 additional
external material finish to further add interest to the elevation. Building 1 of the amended proposal appears to have less
visual interest than what was originally approved noting that further changes were required to this building.

Information Required
8.     The western elevation of building 1 amended to provide for increased visual interest through increased
       articulation and variation of materials.
