Development Application part 2 of 2 Report and Plans MCU13/0030

    c) Development reduces the reliance on private vehicles and promotes public and non-motorised
       transport options;
    d) Carparking spaces and the associated manoeuvring areas provided are designed to be safe
       and functional and meet the reasonable requirements ofthe particular land use;
    e) Adequate provision is made for the standing, parking, loading and unloading, access and
       manoeuvring ofservice vehicles within the development site;
    f) Development does not adversely impact on existing public parking;
    g) Adequate monetary contributions are made in circumstances where Council considers the
       provision ofexternal parking will fulfil the parking demand generated by the development and
       will not have an adverse impact on existing public parking; and
    h) Vehicular access does not impact adversely upon existing landscaping or native vegetation.

Comment: Site access and internal driveway access are appropriate for the use                       -
                                                                                                        refer Proposal
Plans in Attachment B. An additional 19 car spaces are proposed providing a total of 32 car spaces.
carparking requirements of the Driveways and Carparking Code are achieved as follows:-

EARTHWORKS CODE
A summary of the proposed           development’s compliance with the purpose of the Earthworks Code is
included below.


The purpose ofthis code is to ensure:
    a) To ensure that earthworks do not unreasonably impact on the natural environment or other
       properties with regard to-
          i. land stability (including differential settlement or expansion in reactive soils);
         ii. contamination ofland;
        iii. flooding and drainage;
        iv. groundwater, watercourses and wetlands;
         v. loss ofnative remnant or regrowth vegetation; and

    b) Earthworks    are designed and constructed to be structurally sound.



Comment: The proposed earthworks do not significantly impact on the natural environment and are
generally located in already developed parts of the site. The proposed development will achieve
compliance with the applicable specific outcomes of the Earthworks Code and will be addressed as
part of a subsequent building works and operational works application.


EROSION CONTROL CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Erosion and Sediment
Control Code is included below.


The purpose ofthis code is to ensure:


    a) there is no significant environmental harm caused by the effects of erosion and sediment
       transport associated with development;
    b) disturbed areas are stabilised and restored promptly and effectively; and
    c) disturbance ofland is minimised.

Comment: The proposed development will achieve compliance with the Specific Outcomes Solutions
of the Erosion Control Code. This will be addressed in further detail in a subsequent building works
and operational works application.
