property that are not covered by an existing easement. A 4.0 metre wide easement
must be provided over Council sewers greater than 3.0 metres deep (where approved
by Council). Easements must be located centrally over the main.
75. A registered easement shall be created over any stormwater drainage pipes within the
site that collect stormwater from a Council road or convey stormwater from any adjoining
property (for example, where drainage pipes are provided within the site to prevent
adjacent properties from additional ponding/flooding due to the subject site being filled).
76. No building or other structure shall be constructed or encroach into an easement.
Construction Issues

b. A waste management table as indicated below is to be completed showing how
waste material is to be segregated - recycled – reused or disposed.

The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of waste
for the effective reuse and recycling of such materials. Additionally Council rewards
those who segregate waste by significantly reducing disposal fees at the landfill
some items are free. Higher gate fees are charged for loads of mixed waste.
Trade Waste

the sewer.
102. Noise emission from mechanical equipment shall comply with the following
requirements:
Air-conditioning and Refrigeration
Document Set ID: 23307313
Version: 3, Version Date: 24/10/2024 Page 14 of 20

a. 7am to 10pm: Maximum background + 5dB(A)
b. 10pm to 7am: Maximum background + 3dB(A)
Pumps
a. 7am to 7pm: Maximum background + 5dB(A)
b. 7pm to 10pm: Maximum background + 3dB(A)
c. 10pm to 7am: No audible noise.
103. Written certification from a suitably qualified person shall be submitted confirming that
the noise levels from all mechanical equipment comply when measured at either the
residential boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building, whichever
is the closest to the equipment.
The assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the
equipment and prior to any occupation of the building, and in a format approved by
Council. All equipment should be operating at the same time to test the overall noise
level created.
Note: It is highly recommended that the person you engage to certify the installation is
involved at the plan development stage so they can recommend where this equipment
is best located. They can also advise about noise enclosures and can make other
suggestions to avoid noise problems. It is a lot more costly to try and deal with noise
problems after everything is built.
104. Noise from building works associated with residential development shall comply with the
following –
a. Limited to between 7:00am to 6:30pm Monday to Saturday.
b. All reasonable measures are taken to minimise noise emissions.
