Attached to the e-mail MCU15/0014 - Information Response.
Friday, 10 April 2015 Our Ref: 15010 / Office: Sunshine Coast Council Ref: MCU15/0014 NOOSA COUNCIL PO BOX 141 TEWANTIN QLD 4565 ATTENTION: Glen Conforti Dear Glen INFORMATION RESPONSE DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE OF PREMISES - MULTIPLE HOUSING - TYPE 4 CONVENTIONAL (6 UNITS) 279 GYMPIE TERRACE, NOOSAVILLE LOT 2 RP51970 Further to Council’s Information Request for the abovementioned proposal we now respond in full to each of the items raised. Issue – Setbacks 1. Please provide amended plans with a greater setback to the second floor. Response: Refer attached amended proposal plans prepared by Kidd & Co Designers. The setback to the western boundary has been increased with the majority of the second floor now setback 3.8m from the boundary. This will ensure that the amenity of the neighbouring properties eastern aspect is not impacted. It is noted that the proposed setbacks are consistent with the setbacks of nearby buildings which typically have a 3 – 3.5m setback, none of which comply with a side setback of half the building height. The setbacks proposed will minimise impact on neighbouring views within the reasonable expectation of maintaining consistency with existing development form and setbacks. Issue – Stormwater 2. Provide a preliminary stormwater drainage plan for the development. The plan must be prepared by an RPEQ and include but not be limited to: (a) The location of the discharge point and the expected discharge rate. Please note that the maximum discharge rate to kerb and channel at any one location is 25l/sec. (b) The location of any necessary detention system (c) Levels that demonstrate that the filling of the site will not cause additional ponding of stormwater on the adjoining properties or alternatively provide a preliminary design of the stormwater system to convey the runoff through the subject site

(d) Any modifications or additions to the existing stormwater drainage system
(e) Any necessary easements.
Response:
Refer attached preliminary stormwater drainage plan and correspondence prepared by SCG Consulting
Engineers. This plan and correspondence demonstrates that an appropriate stormwater outcome for
the site can be achieved.
Issue – Access
3. Provide revised plans that indicate:
(a) The access driveway located clear of any existing infrastructure or indicate on the plan any
relocated infrastructure,
(b) The reconfiguration of the existing on-street carparking that does not result in a loss of
spaces.
(c) The gate relocated within the site sufficient to allow a vehicle to wait within the site (minimum
6m)
(d) A passing opportunity between the front boundary and the carparking area. It is
recommended that the passing opportunity (5.5m wide) be provided near the front boundary.
Response:
Refer amended proposal plans and attached traffic engineering advice prepared by RoadPro
Development. This advice confirms that the access arrangements are appropriate and comply with
Australian Standards.
Issue – Carparking
4. Provide additional detail on the proposed “car stackers”. The detail must include but not be limited
to:
(a) the design of the “car stackers”
(b) an indication on the use of the “stacker” (how to enter and exit the stacker)
(c) an indication from the manufacturer of the time taken to enter and exit the “stacker“
(d) the “waiting” area for other vehicles
(e) an indication from the manufacturer of the types of vehicles that can use the stackers
(f) should the ‘stacker limited certain vehicles provide details on how the developer will limit the
use of the site to the suitable vehicle types and exclude other vehicles. Reasonable
consideration must be given to the mix of vehicle types commonly used in the locality and by
tourist visitors (SUV, 4WD etc).
Response:
Refer attached brochure on the proposed car stacker. The proposed car stacker will be the 2500kg
load capacity, which will be adequate for a typical 4wd vehicle. The garages are proposed with a
ceiling height of over 4m to accommodate 4wd vehicles on the stackers. Being a hoist style car
stacker, access onto and off the stacker is relatively easy and similar to a service hoist, with sufficient
space provided in the driveway for vehicles to wait whilst another vehicle is moved onto or off the car
stacker.
5. Provide plans that demonstrate how vehicles can enter and exit garage 1 and the visitor spaces,
reverse out and exit the site in a forward gear in a total of 3 movements. Please note that the
manoeuvring areas must be in accordance with AS/NZS2890.1:2004 for the larger vehicle type
(B99).
Response:
Refer attached swept path diagrams prepared by SCG Consulting Engineers. These swept path
diagrams demonstrate that appropriate access to the garages and visitor parks can be achieved.

6. Provide additional detail on how the “intercom” system will overcome the potential issue where a
visitor accesses the site to find that the visitor spaces are occupied. The detail must include on-
site manoeuvring of the vehicle if all of the spaces are occupied.
Response:
Refer attached swept path diagrams prepared by SCG Consulting Engineers. The swept path diagram
demonstrates that onsite manoeuvring of a visitor vehicle can occur even if all of the spaces are
occupied.
Issue – Acid Sulfate Soils
7. Provide a preliminary acid sulphate management plan to address the potential issues associated
with the filling of the site.
Response:
Refer attached correspondence prepared by SCG Consulting Engineers. This correspondence confirms
that the proposed filling of the site will not lead to an increased risk of acid sulfate soils creation.
The Information and Referral Stage of IDAS has now concluded. We ask that you now provide details
of adjoining owners in order that we may commence the public notification of the application.
Should you have any questions with respect to the above, please do not hesitate to contact me direct.
Yours faithfully
