planning report Eumundi Noosa Rd - Courtware · MCU24/0125

4.4 Works Codes
The site falls from the west to the east towards the rear of the property and the access handle to
Starboard Court.

There is no stormwater management onsite as this has been addressed in the neighbouring
subdivision (reference Appeal No:118 of 2006 and OPW15/0133). The existing detention basin
created as part of the subdivision is suitable to provide mitigation for the stormwater quantity flow
and achieves the Water Quality Objectives outlined in the Planning Scheme.

The development minimises driveways with only one driveway crossover provided from the Eumundi
Noosa Road frontage and one access handle from Starboard Court. The Eumundi Noosa Road
access is proposed as a left in, left out with excellent sight lines to the north and south. Noting there
are currently 3 MDRZ lots which could accommodate at least 3 driveways and 4 units on each lot
culminating in around 12 units and traffic generation to 3 different driveways. The proposal seeks
only 1 driveway and 11 units using this driveway. A far better outcome than 3 driveways from the
major road.

Carparking
The proposal is deficient by 2 car spaces with 1 space provided for unit 8 and 1 space provided for
unit 10. These units are 2 bedrooms and 127m² each and the planning scheme requires 2 spaces
each as they are greater than 100m².
One space for each of these units is sufficient as they are 2 bedrooms (albeit 27m² larger floor area
than required for 1 car space) and smaller than all the other unit types onsite. The additional area is
attributed to living spaces so regardless of living space size there are only 2 bedrooms and the same
number of people living on site whether the dwelling is 100m² or 127m². Further, a visitor space is
located adjacent to both units. It is considered there are sufficient spaces onsite for the intended
land use in accordance with the Performance Outcomes.

Earthworks
Although some cut and fill is proposed, the building steps down the slope and therefore no more
than 1.5m retaining wall height is required to deliver the development. The NGL ground levels is
retained along all boundaries.

In term of waste management, refuge bins are provided along the access handle. It is recommended
a condition to be provided for a waste management plan in this regard.
