Dear Marcus,
RE: MCU 2009/1512 TRANSPORT TYPE 2 — CARPARK

In response to your information request dated 21* December 2009, we make the following
representations on behalf of the Sunshine Coast Regional Council. The numbered items below match
the items in your letter:

1. Refer to the Carpark Landscape plan. | attach another copy of this plan to this letter. The
grass cells will be constructed in accordance with this plan.

2. There is a sewer line running along the south west boundary. !f council are prepared to work
outside normal conditions and accept planting of trees inside the usual one (1) metre offset
from sewer lines required then Acronychia impeforata can be planted along the south west
boundary.

3. The landscaper (Place Planning Design Environmental) has indicated that the 600mm
setback is not going to make a difference to the presentation of the landscaping and that his
proposal will provide appropriate landscaping to enhance the streetscape quality. The
shrubs proposed are narrow and will provide screening to between 1 metre and 1.5 metres
high when mature. Gravel strips will be added at the edge of gardens to allow for car
overhang of 600mm.

4. The infiltration rates of the grass cell are not available. | have enclosed with this letter a
sample of the grass cell that will be used for your review. It is clear by inspecting the cell that
flow rates will be sufficient.

5. The existing gully pit is being retained. It is proposed that the existing gully pit is altered to
suite the revised entry as per Proposed Carpark Works Layout Plan (Drawing No 19134-CP1)
and to accommodate the new curb and channel.

This concludes our response to the information request. In accordance with the relevant provisions
of the Integrated Planning Act, please commence the decision period of the assessment process.

Yours sincerely,
.

Alex Rigby
