Dear Sir/Madam

Information Request
Sustainable Planning Act 2009

I refer to your application and advise that Council requires further information to satisfactorily assess the proposal.
application details
Application No:	MCU17/0078
Proposal:	Development Permit for Material Change of Use of Premises (Indsutrial Business Type 2 - Production, alteration, repackaging & repairing (12 units) & 2 x Ancillary Dwelling Units)
Street Address:	20-22 Venture Dr NOOSAVILLE  QLD  4566
Real Property Description:	Lot 16 SP 297259
information required
The information requested is set out below:

ENGINEERING

Issue
The applicant has not submitted a preliminary stormwater management plan for the site. It is also noted that the submitted plans indicate stormwater tanks in the easement at the rear of the site but the applicant has not provided any written acceptance of the tanks from the authorities benefitted by the easement.

Information Required
Provide a preliminary stormwater management plan for the development.
Provide written authority from the benefitted authorities for the proposed stormwater tanks to be located within the easements.

Issue
It is noted that the indicated loading bays will essentially block the access driveways. The loading bays need to be located such that the site can function if the loading bay is occupied. It is suggested that any carspaces that will be impeded must be dedicated to “staff”.

Information Required
Provide an amended layout that locates the loading bays such that the site can function when the bays are occupied. It is suggested that any carspaces that will be impeded must be dedicated to “staff”.

Issue
The submitted plans do not include the dimensions of the carspaces and the spaces nearest the street frontage do not appear to provide the necessary queuing length as described in the relevant Australian Standard (AS/NZS2890.1:2004)

Provide an amended layout that includes dimensions for the carspaces and access aisles.
Provide an amended layout that provides the necessary queuing length as described in the relevant Australian Standard (AS/NZS2890.1:2004) or alternatively provide comment from a suitably qualified person (RPEQ) that states that the queuing length provided is safe for the intended use. It is suggested that, in order to reduce the amount of movements for the spaces closest to the street frontage, these spaces be dedicated as “staff”.

Issue
The building height is not detailed on the elevation plans and the front setback is not detailed on the Site Plan.

Information Required
Elevation plans of the development which confirms the building height and Site Plan to detail front setbacks.

Issue
The application proposes a bin enclosure and bin wash area adjacent to the front boundary. Table 14.56 of the Landscaping Code requires 2 metres of landscaping to the frontage adjacent to an uncovered car space. It is considered that the location of the bin wash code is contrary to the desired outcome of the Landscaping Code.

Information Required
Re-location of the bin enclosure and wash area so that it is at least 2.0 metres from the front boundary.

Issue
It is considered that opportunities still exist for improvements to the buildings appearance. These include, but are not limited to, hoods over windows and aesthetic improvements to the eastern wall as detailed on elevation 3.

Information Required
Amended elevation plans which provide design solutions to enhance the buildings appearance.
