GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                   26 MAY 2014


REPORT
A report on this application was considered by the Planning & Organisation Committee on 20
May 2014 (refer to Item 3, page 35) and was subsequently referred to the upcoming General
Committee meeting.

During the course of discussions, Councillors requested that conditions 1 and 2 give reference to
the Pomona flood study, and clearly articulate that remedial works may be required, including
removal of fill and/or reshaping. Accordingly, it is recommended that conditions 1 and 2 be
reworded as follows as indicated in bold:

1.     The applicant must provide a “Flood Impact Assessment” of the filling placed on site.
       *(Refer to Advisory Note) The assessment must:
       (a) be prepared by a suitably qualified professional engineer,
       (b) have regard to Council’s Pomona Flood Study, and
       (c) clearly indicate the extent of any off-site impacts.
       Should the assessment conclude that off-site impacts will occur, recommendations
       must be included in the ‘Flood Impact Assessment’ detailing any necessary remedial
       works.
2.     The applicant must undertake any necessary remediation works included in the
       recommendations of the required “Flood Impact Assessment”. Remediation works may
       include, but not be limited to, removal of fill and/or reshaping surface levels.
