Storeys
   3. Please provide plans indicating existing and finished levels around the building
       confirming the proposal is no more than 4 storeys in height at any point.

Carparking
   4. The driveways and carparking code seeks 84 onsite parking spaces. The proposed
      plans include 82 carparking spaces. Please amend the plans to comply with the car
      parking requirement.

Bushfire Management
   5. Provide an updated Bushfire Assessment and Plan for the development site and any
       strategies necessary to mitigate bush fire risks to an acceptable level. The
       assessment and plan shall be undertaken by a qualified person, which is considered
       to be a person with a minimum of 6 years current experience in the field of bushfire
       assessment and management.

Stormwater
   6. There is no downstream Council drainage system and the sites currently have on-
      site infiltration systems constructed as part of the creation of the lots. The submitted
      material does not fully demonstrate how stormwater runoff from the proposed
      development will be addressed.

       Please provide a preliminary stormwater design for the proposed development. The
       must be prepared by an RPEQ and include but not be limited to:
       (a)    the drainage system for the building and hardstand areas
       (b)    the connection to the existing on-site infiltration systems
       (c)    the capacity of the existing on-site infiltration systems to cater for the
              proposed development
       (d)    any necessary detention or rainwater harvesting system

Access
   7. The submitted material does not contain sufficient detail to address the longitudinal
       grades of the access driveways. Provide plans that indicate the longitudinal grades
       of the access driveways extending from the edge of the road formation to the
       basement carparking areas

Parking Areas
   8. The parking areas in each building have lengthy aisles with no turnaround facility at
       the end of the aisles. While it is acknowledged that the parking areas are not open
       to the public it is considered necessary that turning areas be provided to avoid
       vehicles reversing long distances. It is also noted that there is no opportunity for a
       vehicle to turnaround if they accidentally drive down to the basement parking and
       are unable to access the parking area.

       Please provide the following information:
          a. A turnaround facility at the end of each aisle;
          b. Demonstrate how a vehicle that accidentally drives down to the basement
              parking but is unable to gain access can turnaround or alternatively provide a
              solution that eliminates the potential for a vehicle to accidentally access the
              driveway; and
          c. Provide a carparking area for the expected service vehicles.
