          iii. increase the use of walking, cycling, bus, train and ferry modes and minimise the use of
               the private car;
          iv. vensure that vehicle access to the development does not compromise the capacity and
               safety of the road system;
           v. not increase the scale of the road network beyond that currently planned; and
          vi. ensure that development appropriately attenuates noise from adjoining roads.
    b)   Development works are designed and constructed to a standard that meets community
         expectations, prevents unacceptable off-site impacts and optimizes whole of life cycle costs;
    c)   Roads are designed and constructed to satisfy their specified functions and provide an
         appropriate level of flood immunity (including local flooding on roads, i.e. through sufficient
         kerb storage capacity);
    d)   Development provides appropriate buffering between noise sensitive uses and the major road
         network and rail corridors;
    e)   Roads are designed and constructed to be compatible with the existing road network and
         hierarchy and to provide a safe environment for vehicular traffic, pedestrians and cyclists;
    f)   Intersections and access points are designed and constructed to retain the low key
         development style and slower pace enjoyed by residents and visitors;
    g)   Road and drainage infrastructure is constructed to a standard that minimizes ongoing
         maintenance costs;
    h)   Drainage systems are designed and constructed with capacity to effectively manage or convey
         the design flow;
    i)   Road and drainage infrastructure is compatible with other infrastructure; and
    j)   Road and drainage infrastructure does not create any adverse impacts upon environmental
         values associated with biodiversity, hydrological cycles, biophysical resources and air quality.

Comment: The proposal will comply with all applicable Specific Outcomes of the Transport Drainage
and Works Code. This code will be addressed in greater detail with a subsequent operational works
application.



WASTE MANAGEMENT CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Waste Management
Code is included below.

The purpose of this code is to ensure:

    a) The storage, disposal and management of solid and liquid waste are conducted in an safe and
       ecologically sustainable manner and without environmental nuisance;
    b) The on-site storage of waste does not create environmental nuisance or visual impact to
       adjoining property during the construction of a development; and
    c) Council and other licensed trade waste services are able to conveniently collect and dispose of
       waste generated by the development.

Comment: The proposal will comply with all applicable Specific Outcomes of the Waste Management
Code. A refuse storage area is provided in a screened hardstand waste enclosure at the rear of the
site to reduce nuisance and aesthetic issues. Recyclable and standard waste storage will be provided
to minimise waste and support recycling. Waste collection will be facilitated from the kerbside. The
waste enclosure and proposed kerbside collection method is functionally appropriate for the size of
the residential development proposed.



WATER SENSITIVE DESIGN CODE
A summary of the proposed development’s compliance with the purpose of the Water Sensitive Design
Code is included below.
