Issue: Sustainable Building Design Code

4.       Provide additional detail to demonstrate that the development achieves compliance with Performance
         Outcome 2 of The Noosa Plan 2020 – Sustainable Building Design Code. The detail must be prepared
         by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland).

Response:

We have amended our Stormwater Management plans to note a minimum storage capacity of 3000Lt per dwelling.

Issue: Cut in Road Reserve

6.       Provide additional detail on the extent of earthworks in the road reserve. The additional detail must be
         prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland) and
         include, but not be limited to:
         a.       demonstrate how trip hazards will be eliminated within the road reserve by indicating the full
                  extent of the transition to the adjoining areas of verge; and
         b.       batters that are limited to a maximum grade of 1:10 as per Condition 23c of the Higher Order
                  Approval (MCU22/0161).

Response:

A site based service location was completed by Abletech on 31 August 2022 which confirms existing service
vertical clearances will not be compromised with the proposed works. As an RPEQ this is our duty. The existing
surface grades are in the order of 1:4-1:6 slope which is steeper than Council’s specified maximum grade of 1:10
and hence, is not an achievable outcome. The proposed earthworks in the road reserve will result in reduced
surface grades to existing conditions and will not present any concerns in regards to soil stability.

Further, the proposed 680mm of cut on the boundary is to the underside of the pavement as noted on SCG
drawing 32204-OW3.1. Therefore, the finished ground levels are in order of 430mm below existing levels. These
levels will result in a superior street frontage and landscape amenity which in turn will reduce footpath gradients
and provides a more accessible pedestrian walkway.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact our office.
