Decision Notice OPW21-0063

23.   Any existing unnecessary or redundant property accesses must be removed, and the kerb,
      footpath and verge area reinstated to match the existing footpath and/or verge treatments.
      Grassed verge areas to be reinstated must be provided with 100 mm topsoil and grass seed
      or turf, and must be maintained by the developer until established.
24.   The following must be complied with during the construction of the required
      crossover/driveway:
      a.   The driveway surfacing must consist of either an approved hot mixed asphaltic
           concrete or patterned/plain concrete;
      b.   The driveway must be in accordance with the requirements of AS2890.1 Off-Street Car
           Parking for longitudinal and crossfall gradients;
      c.   The driveway must be constructed so as to not concentrate or direct stormwater runoff
           onto neighbouring properties;
      d.   Underground service conduits for water supply, electricity and any other services must
           be provided as part of the access driveway;
      e.   Where there is an existing pedestrian path, a matching crossfall must be provided for
           the driveway on the alignment of the path, for the full width of the path;
      f.   Have a minimum clearance of 500mm from any Unitywater/Energex/Telstra asset,
           unless a written approval is obtained from Unitywater/Energex/Telstra and submitted
           to Council;
      g.   Any stormwater kerb outlet in close proximity to the edge of the new driveway must be
           provided with an approved kerb adaptor; and
      h.   Any existing kerb sections requiring removal due to the works must be saw-cut and
           removed to allow for a smooth and neat finish with the new driveway.
25.   Pavement design for privately owned works must be undertaken in accordance with the
      relevant standards. Structural integrity of the driveway and car park areas will remain the
      responsibility of the property owner/developer.
      Stormwater Drainage
26.   The constructed driveway must not cause additional ponding on the road formation or the
      road reserve.
      Environment (Erosion and Sediment Control)
27.   Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in the Environmental Protection Act 1994) must
      not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely to be released should
      rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are taken to prevent or
      minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
28.   The contractor must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
      extent of works and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather conditions.
      Exposed areas must be suitably covered/stabilised/reinstated as soon as practicable and
      prior to any predicted rainfall occurring.
29.   Erosion and sediment control measures must be installed and maintained to minimise
      erosion on the site and to minimise the export of sediment and associated pollutants from
      the site. The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and
      maintained in accordance with current best practice standards (refer to advisory notes).

30.   A final inspection and approval of the new driveway and completed reinstatement works by
