Application No.	OPW22/0273
Street Address:	12 Grosvenor Tce Noosa Heads Qld 4567
Real Property Description:	Lot 19 SP 188268
Planning Scheme:	Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)
INFORMATION REQUIRED
The information requested is set out below:
Issue
Council has concerns with the submitted plan. The plan has not been prepared by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) and the details shown (levels, location of low point, overland flowpath) have not been endorsed by the RPEQ.
Council has concerns that the change in grades may not be suitable and that the location and shape of the overland flowpath may not be sufficient to ensure that the runoff from the upstream catchment and the neighbour’s driveway in the road reserve can be conveyed across the proposed driveway without causing ponding or the redirection of overland flows to the adjoining property or on to the road formation.
Information Required
Provide a plan that is either prepared by a Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) or endorsed by an RPEQ. The plan must include but not be limited to:
sufficient detail to demonstrate that passenger vehicles (B99 as described in AS/NZS2890.1:2004) will not scrap or bottom out on either the driveway or the road formation when entering and exiting the site
sufficient detail to demonstrate that the proposed driveway and proposed overland flowpath have the capacity to convey the overland flows from the upstream catchment and the neighbour’s driveway in the road reserve in a 1%AEP event and that the proposed driveway will not cause ponding or the redirection of overland flows on to the adjoining property or on to the road formation.
sufficient detail on the necessary land reshaping on the upstream side of the proposed driveway to direct flows to the proposed lowpoint in the driveway
sufficient detail on the necessary land reshaping on the downstream side of the proposed driveway and demonstrate that the flows will not be directed on to the road formation
Provide certification of the design from a Registered Engineer of Queensland (RPEQ) that states that if the driveway is constructed in accordance with the design plans the driveway will achieve the required outcomes mentioned in items 1.1-1.4 above.
due date for response to information request
The due date for providing the requested information is 20 February 2023. Email your 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 your application.
