                              altered, so as not to create a pedestrian safety hazard.
               23.    Pathways must:
                      (a)     Terminate in a manner that ensures smooth transition to existing surfaces for public

                      (b)     The driveway must be constructed so as not to concentrate stormwater runoff onto
                              neighbouring properties.
                      (c)     Underground service conduits for water supply, electricity and any other services must
                              be provided as part of the access driveway
                      (d)     Where there is an existing pedestrian path, a matching crossfall must be provided for
                              the driveway on the alignment of the path, for the full width of the path.
                      (e)     The property access must be located a minimum of 1m clear of existing power poles,
                              streetlights or other signage. The developer is responsible for any necessary relocation
                              of existing services to provide this clearance and must contact the relevant service
