Dear Madam,
REPRESENTATIONS FOR NEGOTIATED DECISION NOTICE
RE: Application No: 2007/1413
Street Address: 430 Black Mountain Rd, Black Mountain
Real Property Description: Lot 89 SP158854
Planning Scheme: The Noosa Plan
I refer to the above application and the Decision Notice issued by the Sunshine
Coast Regional Council on the 19 August 2008. Following perusal of the conditions
of approval, the applicant has identified a few conditions that require amendment in
order for the development to proceed further Accordingly, we provide the following
representations in order to achieve a Negotiated Decision Notice.
3 All cabins shall not exceed 100m2 in gross floor area, not include a laundry and
shall be used for overnight or holiday accommodation only.
With respect to Condition 3 of the permit, we advise Council that whilst the
accommodation will be short stay only, holiday accommodation of up to a week may
be requested by guests Accordingly, guests will require everyday needs including a
laundry facility to wash their clothes during their stay Accordingly, on these
grounds, it is unreasonable for Council to omit a laundry facility from being included
within the cabins. We therefore recommend Council amend Condition 3 as follows
3 All cabins shall not exceed 100m2 in gross floor area,
and shall be used for overnight or holiday accommodation only

15 The driveway shall be sealed for a minimum length of 10m from the edge of
bitumen of Black Mountain Road and any section of driveway with a gradient
greater than 12%
With respect to Condition 15 of the permit, we advise Council that the driveway
entrance is in very good condition. It is also acknowledged that the subject site is
located in a rural area and sealing driveways when on a gentle gradient is not a
mandatory requirement. Given the outstanding condition of the existing gravel
driveway and the aesthetics that the driveway provides to the property and the rural
character of the locality, bitumening the first 10m is unnecessary. It is also noted
that the driveway is in a position that will not adversely affect any adjoining residents
with respect to dust and noise nuisance given the considerable distance between the
existing driveway and adjoining dwellings. The photos displayed below clearly
indicate the exceptional quality and aesthetics of the existing driveway.

View looking from the internal driveway toward the existing residence on site
Accordingly, on these grounds, we recommend Council delete Condition 15.
16 A Road/Footpath Permit shall be completed and submitted for the construction
of the access driveway in accordance with Council's Local Law No. 8. If
approval is given the driveway shall be constructed in accordance with
Council's standard drawings, which will be provided at time of approval.
With respect to Condition 16 of the permit, we refer to the representations made
above in relation to Condition 15. Considering the justification provided for the
retention of the existing access into the property on the grounds of quality and
aesthetics, a Road/Footpath Permit is not required. Accordingly, we recommend
Council delete Condition 16.
18 Roof runoff from the proposed new cabins shall be directed to a rainwater
storage system with a minimum storage capacity of 60,000.
With respect to Condition 18 of the permit, we advise that there is a 40,000Lt storage
tank connected to the existing residence excluding the 3 on-site dams. The
Applicant advises that there is millions of Litres of water available from the 3 on-site
dams present on the property which has an effective pumping system providing good
water pressure should the need arise during a bushfire event. Each cabin will have
access to water for fire fighting purposes should the need arise. The photos
displayed below demonstrate the capacity of the 3 on-site dams and pumping
system.

Pumping System
Whilst the applicant acknowledges the significant availability of water on-site as
demonstrated above, to meet the requirement of 60,000Lt within a storage tank, we
ask Council to consider the existing 40,000Lt storage tank connected to the existing
dwelling and therefore the shortfall of 20,000Lt to meet the requirements of the
Condition. Accordingly, on these grounds, we recommend Council amend Condition
18 as follows:
18 Roof runoff from the proposed new cabins shall be directed to a rainwater
storage system with a minimum storage capacity of 60, 000 20, 000.
I trust the above representations will receive your prompt and favourable
consideration, however should you require clarification or further discussion on any
of the above items prior to issuing a negotiated decision, please don't hesitate to
contact me on (07) 5441 2188.
Yours faithfully,
