        139 Eumundi Noose Road Development - Response to Information Request



        Dear Glen

        On behalf of our Client, Empirica Developments Pty Ltd, we provide you with the below information in
        response to your Information Request.

        Item 18 – Frontage Works
             a) Preliminary levels have been shown in the Preliminary Bulk Earthworks Grading Plan, which
                are also reflected in the architectural drawings. The proposed levels have been determined
                based on standard verge profiles. It is anticipated that the area at the new southern access point
                will remain consistent with the current design and cover levels, however the northern area of
                Eumundi Noosa Road will be in cut in the developed state. However, it is expected that there
                will be consistent depth of services along the Eumundi Noosa Road frontage, so the developed
                state will still be able to maintain an appropriate level of cover.

                   The 2.0m footpath along Eumundi Noosa Road will be maintained at a grade compliant with
                   access standards. It will also be extended along the site frontage of Lionel Donovan Drive on
                   standard alignment to provide continuous pedestrian access around the site. The footpath will
                   be at a grade compliant with Noosa’s design standards and specifications.

                   Hyder requests that the longitudinal sections requested in this Item are included in the
                   operational works conditions, rather than provided at the development approval phase, given
                   that they are detailed in nature and not critical to the function of the proposed site.

             b) It is anticipated that the existing services, both above and underground, will not be affected by
                the works, and that the required covers will be maintained. Hyder has identified that parts of the
                sewer line, as outlined in the Engineering Services Layout plan, will be abandoned.

                   Hyder requests that the information required in this Item is included in the operational works
                   conditions, rather than provided at the development approval phase, given that they are detailed
                   in nature and not critical to the function of the proposed site.

             c) Preliminary review of the signage around the development suggests that no relocation of the
                existing signage along Eumundi Noosa Road will be required for the proposed development.
                Hyder requests that the information required in this Item is finalised in the operational works
                phase of the development.
