19553-2 Response to Information Request OPW20-0051

Noosa Council’s Planning Scheme Policy 05 notes: “For roads where major earthworks
are required, wider road reserves are required. Road Reserves are to be 3.0m from top of
cut
batter and 3.0m from toe of fill batter.”
Information Required
16. Demonstrate how batters on Road Reserve are to be reasonably maintained if these
are to be turfed.
17. Demonstrate compliance of the proposed design with Council’s Planning Scheme
Policy 05.
Response
16. As shown in the landscaping plans provided all batters steeper than 1 in 4 will be
mulched and planted out.
17. As discussed with Mark Lewis due to the steepness of the site it is not possible to
provide road reservice widths that fully contain the road batters without adversely
impacting on the lot layout. As such is has been agreed that easements in favour of
Council will be provided in the front of the new lots where the road batter extends across
the property boundary. These easements are shown on the revised plans.

We trust the above is satisfactory. Should you have any queries regarding this
matter, please contact the undersigned.

Yours faithfully,
