application details
Application No.	RAL17/0511
Street Address:	11 Church St Pomona Qld 4568
Real Property Description:	Lot 11 RP 71186
Planning Scheme:	The Noosa Plan (3 July 2017)
INFORMATION REQUIRED
The information requested is set out below:
Issue
The site is affected by flooding and the extent of flooding is a critical element in determining if there is sufficient building area within the lots and if safe access can be provided. In order to address the effects of flooding the submitted plan indicates that the Defined Flood Level at the eastern boundary is RL91.35m. This level has been assumed to be the flood level across the site. It is noted that the Defined Flood Level is the same as that indicated on a recent Flood Information Certificate issued by Council (reference: CER17/2341 dated 10 August 2017). This certificate also included a flood level on the western boundary (RL 91.85), a notation regarding the flow in the southern gully and an attached sketch plan. The southern gully is noted as “Flow in this gully is not modeled so only backwater is shown. Flood level and extent may not be correct.”
As the flooding in the southern gully is a critical element in the subject reconfiguration it must be modeled and the potential impacts investigated. Please note that Council can provide access to its existing flooding modeling in the area for a fee.
Information Required
Provide suitable flood modeling for the southern gully.
Provide amended plans that are based on the flood modeling for the site as a whole (northern and southern gullies) and include:
bearings and distances for the 1%AEP flood line with any areas below the flood line included in a “Drainage Easement”
the area available within the lots above the 1%AEP flood line.

Provide preliminary engineering designs of the access driveway to the house sites on Lots 2 & 3 and the associated stormwater system. The designs must be based on the   flood modeling of the site and be in accordance with QUDM providing for a safe access for pedestrians and vehicles.
Issue
The submitted material does not include sufficient detail in regard to access and frontage works. It is noted that the proposed access location for Lots 2 & 3 will be restricted by services and vegetation (sight lines)

Information Required
Provide additional detail (comment and plans) in regard to:
the suitability of the access to Lots 2 & 3 including sightlines and services.
the proposed access points for Lots 1 & 4
the extent of frontage works  (kerb and channel, footpath, road widening) proposed by the applicant.
due date for response to information request
The due date for providing the requested information is 8 March 2017. Please advise Council of your response to this information request in accordance with section 13 of the Development Assessment Rules.
If you do not provide a response before the due date, it will be taken as if you have decided not to respond to the information request and Council will continue with the assessment of your application.
