Information Request MCU23-0135 [As Published] · MCU23/0135

                 20. Provide preliminary calculations and/or modelling which shows the extent and depth of
                     inundation through the carpark and surrounding areas for the major event (1%AEP CC)
                     and that an overland flow path is available to prevent building floor levels being inundated
                     in the case of severe blockage during such an event.
                 Issue – Water efficiency and roofwater reuse
                 PO2 of the Sustainable Building Design Code requires rainwater collection and reuse for non-
                 potable uses.
                 Information Required:
                 21. Provide updated plans and a SWMP which incorporates rainwater/roofwater collection and
                     reuse at the site, sufficient to supply external non-potable fixtures such as landscape
                     irrigation and internal non-potable fixtures such as toilet flushing. Water balance
                     calculations are to be provided to support the proposed rainwater tank sizing. A target of
                     80% supply reliability is suggested.

                 22. Provide responses demonstrating compliance with the Sustainable Building Design Code.


                 Summary
                 It is suggested, several design changes ought to be considered with the proposed
                 development having regard to the comments made above. In particular, the matters of a
                 building design being complementary of a “Noosa” style of development incorporating a
                 pavilion-built form, activated street frontages, integrated pedestrian linkages and substantial
                 landscaping.
                 It is expected that the proposed pedestrian and cycleway linkages under the Framework and
                 Character Plan to link to the various precincts, including the proposed Transit Centre. Further,
                 given a substantial amount of new development will be provided, the design is incorporate for
                 the Special Place – Arrival /Meeting/Town Character area in an appropriate location and the
                 Primary Streetscape Treatment Areas. Further, it is strongly suggested that alternative parking
                 and service arrangements should be considered, including the deletion of the decked parking
                 and relocation of the proposed servicing area.
                 Once this information request has been considered, it is suggested that a meeting should be
                 held to discuss possible design changes, potentially with the advice from the consultants
                 engaged by Council to assist with the assessment.
                 3.     DUE DATE FOR RESPONSE TO INFORMATION REQUEST

                 response to [email protected]. Please advise Council of your response to this
                 information request in accordance with section 13 of the Development Assessment Rules.
                 If you do not provide a response before the due date, it will be taken as if you have decided
                 not to respond to the information request and Council will continue with the assessment of
