RE: RESPONSE TO COUNCIL’S REQUEST FOR INFORMATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE APPLICATION
LODGED FOR THE PROPOSED DEVELOPMENT AT 183 WEYBA ROAD, NOOSAVILLE


Requested Information:
    Issue – Onsite Manoeuvring
    On the submitted vehicle manoeuvring plan, the swept paths of both vehicles appear to potentially
    conflict with the adjacent parking space in each garage. In addition, the rear of the vehicles for both
    swept paths, conflict with the landscaping in the front gardens. Council has concerns manoeuvrability
    may be limited once the landscaping in the front garden reaches a mature height.
    Information Required
     8. Please demonstrate the design vehicle can still manoeuvre onsite and leave in a forward gear with
         a second vehicle in each garage and without encroaching into the front landscaping or
         alternatively reposition the footprint of the dwelling to allow more space for manoeuvring at the
         front.

    Issue – Stormwater Management Plan
    The submitted Stormwater Management Report only addresses water quality. Filling of the site has the
    potential to impact on existing overland flow paths and create additional ponding and/or diversion of
    overland flow paths onto adjoining properties.
    Information Required
     9. Please demonstrate the development and filling of the site will not create off-site stormwater
         impacts (ponding or diversion of overland flow paths onto adjoining properties) and/or include
         appropriate stormwater drainage infrastructure to convey stormwater from adjoining properties,
         through the site and to the lawful point of discharge.

    Issue - Earthworks
    The proposed works include fill to the site however no plans have been submitted that provide any
    detail of these works. The submitted acid sulfate soil report only provides an analysis of the soil
    characteristics.
