Information Request MCU23 0109

Information Required
1.    Provide amended plans increasing the rear setback to both levels to a minimum of 6m,
      including any roofed outdoor area.


Issue – Carparking
The proposal plans include a total of 12 onsite carparks. Acceptable Outcome AO13 of the
Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code requires a minimum of 10 resident and 3 visitor
carparks to be provided onsite. The application material does not provide sufficient justification
for the shortfall of visitor parking.
Information Required
2.    Provide amended plans providing carparking in accordance with AO13 of the Dual
      Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code.


Issue – On-site Manoeuvring
The submitted Vehicle Turning Plans (33114-OW5.1, dated June 2023) provides insufficient
information to demonstrate that the proposed development offers adequate area for onsite
parking and vehicle manoeuvring as required by Performance Outcome PO7 of the Driveways
and Parking Code. The Vehicle Turning Paths shown on SCG’s drawing 33114-OW5.1 shows
that:
•     Vehicles entering and exiting the western most car park may collide with elements of
      the carport.
•     Vehicles exiting the two most eastern carparks do so in a forward gear. It is unclear if
      vehicles are restricted to reverse in only, and if so, how this will be indicated to drivers.
Information Required
3.    Provide amended Vehicle Turning Plans that address Council’s concerns. The amended
      Vehicle Turning Plans must be prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ –
      Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland) and include, but not be limited to:
      3.1. demonstrate a B99 vehicle is capable of entering and exiting the western-most car
           park without colliding with elements of the proposed carport; and
      3.2. provide clarification if vehicles utilising the two eastern-most car parks are limited
           to ‘reverse-in’ only, and if so, how this will be indicated to drivers.


Issue – Location of Stormwater Discharge Outlet
The submitted Stormwater Management Plan (33114-SW1.1, dated June 2023) proposes a
stormwater structure (headwall) that is wholly located outside the subject site and within State
property, with Council as trustee. The proposed development must be wholly contained within
the subject site unless written owners’ consent is provided to Council.
Council recognises that if the proposed location of the proposed headwall wishes to be
pursued, a drainage easement must be registered against proposed Unit 10 (subject to any
plan changes) and 12 Lake MacDonald Drive. The easement would need to be of sufficient
width to accommodate the ongoing maintenance and construction of the headwall.
Information Required
4.    Provide written owners’ consent from Council’s Property and Infrastructure departments
      indicating their support for the proposed infrastructure to be constructed and maintained
      within the lot, and to be burdened by the easement described above.
