14. Provide RPEQ written certification, certifying that the proposed filling
works and retaining structures, will not cause a worsening of stormwater
conditions by adversely altering stormwater drainage characteristics
external to the site, including, but not limited to:
a. additional ponding on neighbouring properties;
b. increased runoff onto neighbouring properties;
c. redirect overland flows.
TODs plans have been designed in coordination with Peak Urban’s Stormwater
Management Plan, which conclude:
It has been demonstrated that non-worsening of peak flows has been achieved
to the discharge point for events up to the 10% AEP event (refer Table 2-7).
The results show that there is non-worsening for events up the 5% AEP, with a
minor increase noted in the larger events. The intent of sizing the detention
basin is to mitigate flows up to the 10% AEP storm event to ensure non-
worsening of discharges into the downstream flow path. In larger events, flows
from the site will start to sheet flow across the rear of the site to Cooroora Creek.
As the discharge point for the site becomes inundated from Cooroora Creek
flooding in the major storm event, it is considered that the very minor increases
noted from the site become inconsequential as a result of downstream site
being drowned out by creek flooding. The catchment size of Cooroora Creek
reporting past the site is approximately 1,400 ha. The very minor increases in
peak flows in the major event would be considered to not result in any
quantifiable change to downstream flooding conditions.
15. Provide cross sections – including the finished ground levels of the
proposed works and neighbouring properties – for the sections marked in
the snippet below, including a 2m wide footapth:
Updated cross sections are provided through the relevant areas with finished levels.
16. Provide Unity Water’s written approval for a low-pressure sewer system for
the proposed development.
17. If the proposed lots cannot be connected to sewerage reticulation,
amended plans are required with minimum lots sizes of 2,000m2.
TODs provide the following comments in regard to the Unitywater sewer connections.
There is an existing sewer main traversing the site aligned with the rear of existing
dwellings/properties along Pavilion Street. Noosa A H & I Society Inc (Pomona Show
Grounds) have given their in-principle support to permit the extension of the existing
gravity sewer main within their property to allow the new lots to be fully services by a
