      32.2. Stormwater Drainage

33.   The person acting on this permit shall apply and obtain for all other necessary permits including crane
      permits, road opening permits, hoarding permits, footpath occupation permits and/or any other approvals
      required under any other Act.

34.   The Assessment Manager for building work shall ensure that all other permits required by this permit have
      been obtained and outcomes from imposed conditions incorporated into the building plans prior to issue
      of a Development Permit for Building Works.
Vehicle Access
35.   A vehicular access driveway to serve the development shall be constructed from the Little Cove Road
      frontage of the site with a maximum width of 3.5m within the road reserve.

36.   The vehicle access driveway within the site shall be setback at least 500mm from the western boundary
      with this strip of land being landscaped in accordance with Council’s Planning Scheme Policy PSP03
      Landscaping Plants & Guidelines.

37.   Deleted.

38.   The driveway shall be designed and constructed to Council’s design standards and to grades that prevent
      vehicles from scraping and/or bottoming whilst also allowing pedestrians movements along the footpath
      without any step or level difference. Should any driveways be constructed to grades that do not comply
      with AS/NZS 2890.1-2004, Council will require that the driveway be removed and reconstructed to levels
      that do comply.
      Please note, a step between the driveway and the footpath shall be avoided, as it is preferred to have the
      footpath continue at a constant grade to minimise the potential for pedestrians to trip or fall.
39.   The driveway shall be designed and constructed to join smoothly with the adjoining access driveways and
      not concentrate or direct stormwater runoff on to adjoining properties. Any damage to the adjoining
      access driveways that occurs during the construction of the new driveway shall be reinstated with suitable
      matching materials to the satisfaction of Council’s Manager Land Development.

40.   To ensure pedestrian safety between vehicles exiting the site and pedestrians on the footpath, the
      driveway and any associated fencing or vegetation near the driveway shall comply with the minimum sight
      line requirements as defined in AS2890.1, section 3.2.4. The applicant shall demonstrate compliance by
      illustrating these sight lines on the plans submitted for Operational Works.

41.   All vehicles shall enter and leave the site in a forward direction.
Vehicle Access/Visitor Carparking Easements
42.   A vehicle access easement shall be created over the proposed driveway that gives access to proposed
      Lot 2. The easement shall be a minimum of 4.5m wide (with the width being increased where necessary
      to accommodate manoeuvring areas, passing opportunities) and shall benefit proposed Lot 2 and burden
      proposed Lot 1.
      In this regard, plans submitted for Operational Works approval shall accurately show the location of the
      easement. In addition to this the Applicant’s Solicitor shall give Council’s Solicitor an appropriate
      undertaking in writing that the Title Deed and the easement documents will be lodged at the Land Titles
      Office and any additional Titles Office forms or requisitions requiring the consent of Council will be
      attended to promptly.
      A duly executed copy of the easement shall be submitted to Council for perusal prior to the use
      commencing.
      Any changes required by Council’s Solicitor must be corrected immediately.
43.   Deleted.

46.   All carparking shall be kept, maintained and line-marked in a condition fit for use.
Vegetation Protection & Preservation
47.   Vehicular pavements within the drip zone of any of the existing trees on site to be retained shall be
      designed as a pervious pavement (such as grass paving cells or similar), as this will allow water that falls
      on this surface to penetrate to the trees root system. The pavement shall be constructed so as not to
      damage the tree or their root system and in this regard temporary fencing shall be provided around the
      trees during construction to help protect them.
      Plans shall be submitted to the Council for approval that clearly show the type and extent of the pervious
      pavement and the temporary fencing prior to obtaining a Development Permit for Operational Works.
48.   Where retained trees are located in areas proposed to be filled on site (or are located on neighbouring
      allotments to the actual site to be filled), there will be a need to prevent fill material from being placed on
      the trees root system. To this end the design of the filling works will need to incorporate terracing around
      the tree or a similar means of ensuring that the natural ground level around the trees remains generally
      the same as existing. These measures shall clearly be shown on the plans submitted for Operational
      Works approval and any drainage required to drain these areas shall also be shown on the plans.

49.   All Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 pest plants declared under the Land Protection (Pest and Stock Route
      Management) Act 2002 are to be controlled on the site prior to Council endorsement of the plan of survey.
      In this context “controlled” shall mean, for class 1 and 2 pests, completely eradicated. For class 3 pests it
      shall mean removal of the plants where they threaten environmentally significant areas of the site such as
      riparian zones and areas of natural vegetation.
      Where class 3 plants are removed as a result of this condition and there is not sufficient natural
      regeneration of native species, the areas shall be replanted with endemic native species so that a
      sustainable natural ecosystem is restored.
      Council’s Conservation Management Supervisor will not inspect the site until 30 days after the weed
      treatment and replanting is complete.
Frontage Works
50.   Footpath improvements such as topsoiling, grassing, and tree planting are required to the Little Cove
      Road frontage of the site in accordance with Planning Scheme Policy PSP03 Landscaping Plants &
      Guidelines. Grass shall be couch, free of weeds.

51.   All redundant vehicular crossings to the site shall be removed and replaced by landscaping such as trees
      and grasses in accordance with Council’s Standard specifications prior to the endorsement of the Plan of
      Survey.
Roof Water & Stormwater Drainage
52.   All stormwater drainage (including roof water overflow from the rainwater storage system) shall be
      collected and discharged so there is no net increase in the rate of discharge as a result of the
      development for storm events up to a “1 in 100 year storm”.

53.   Stormwater runoff is to be controlled on site by using a combination of collection and reuse, detention and
      infiltration with excess runoff disposed of on site in such a manner so as to cause no scour or damage to
      the subject site, adjoining properties, existing waterways or any Council property to the reasonable
      satisfaction of the Manager - Land Development.
      A Development Permit for Building Works shall not be granted until a Development Permit for Operational
      Works has been issued in regard to the drainage scheme.
54.   All stormwater drainage shall be designed in accordance with the Noosa Planning Scheme Policy 5 –
      Engineering Design Standards – Roads, Drainage and Earthworks.

55.   All site stormwater drainage shall be by means of a gravity system.
Sewer Mains
56.   Each lot shall be connected to Council’s existing sewerage reticulation systems and be constructed in
      accordance with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to Council.

57.   All connections to sewer system shall be carried out either by Council or by a Council approved
      Contractor and at no cost to Council.

58.   The existing sewer main that traverses the site adjacent to the eastern boundary and the ‘zone of
      influence’ (taken as the area within a 45-degree angle measured from the invert of the sewer main to the
      finished surface level) shall be accurately located and determined by a licensed Surveyor and shown on
      all plans submitted for Operational Works approval.

     To ensure Council’s sewer main is accessible for maintenance purposes and is protected from risk of
     damage no structures requiring a building permit (eg. buildings, swimming pools, retaining walls
     exceeding 1m in height, raised terraces, etc) shall be constructed within this ‘zone of influence’ or within
     1.5m of the centreline of the sewer main, whichever is the greater. As such the applicant shall amend
     Operational Works plans including Building plans to ensure compliance.
Town Water Supply
59.    Each lot shall be connected to Council’s existing town water supply and be constructed in accordance
       with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to Council.

60.    Each individual water connection to the water reticulation system shall extend to the property boundary
