Appendix D Engineering Site Servicing Report

                                                                                   PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT


A site classification report was undertaken in order to adequately determine the size required for the soakage pits
promote groundwater infiltration and minimise the overland flow discharging onto the downstream neighbouring
property during frequent rainfall events. The soakage pit will have a volume of 3m3. Runoff from Lot 2 will discharge
into a second new 3m3 soakage pit. Each soakage pit is required to be located at least 3m from the property
boundaries.

The Queensland Urban Drainage Manual (QUDM 2017) classifies soakage pits as an acceptable method of discharging
stormwater from a property (Level 1 drainage solution). The proposed soakage pits therefore constitute the lawful
point of discharge for each lot. The proposed stormwater discharge solution is not expected to create an adverse
impact to the downstream neighbouring property. In fact, it is envisaged to improve the current situation because the
downpipes on the existing dwelling discharge straight onto the ground.

The proposed stormwater network design is represented on the engineering drawings provided in Appendix A.


2.5       Sewerage
There is currently a sewer main traversing the property. As part of the ROL, the house drain from the existing dwelling
is to be disconnected from the current property connection as it would need to cross into Lot 2 and would become a
combine drain. The existing dwelling on Lot 1 will be reconnected to a new property connection. The existing property
connection will remain to service Lot 2.

The proposed sewerage network design is represented on the engineering drawings provided in Appendix A.

2.6       Water
There is an existing DN100 VC reticulation water main along the full extent of Butler Street on the opposite side of the
road. There is also a DN300 AC trunk water main along the full extent of Butler Street fronting the property. The
existing water meter for Lot 1 will be retained, and a new water meter and service will be provided for Lot 2. The
closest fire hydrant is directly opposite the subject site on the reticulation main which will ensure the development
meets all firefighting provision requirements.

The proposed water design is represented on the engineering drawings provided in Appendix A.

2.7       Electricity
Energex are the service authority responsible for planning and approval of electricity supply to service the
development site. There is existing overhead electricity supply infrastructure along Butler St, which currently supplies
the existing dwelling in Lot 1. It is proposed that this overhead supply will be utilised to provide connection for Lot 2.

2.8       Telecommunications
The DBYD search identified that there is an existing Telstra cable bank on the western side of Butler Street and an
existing NBN connection to the property.

With the implementation and roll out of the National Broadband Network (NBN), the development site will be subject
to application and formal Agreement with NBN Co. NBN compliant pit and pipe infrastructure will be designed and
installed in conjunction with the electrical reticulation.

Telecommunications infrastructure required for the proposed development will be designed by a suitably qualified
telecommunications engineer during the detailed design phase.
