c. All paths must have a slip resistant surface;
d. Expansion and contraction joints must provide a flush finish. Installation of joints by
saw cutting is preferred to ensure a smooth ride for cyclists;
e. The required work includes any modifications to ensure the footpath finishes flush with
all existing service covers and the like, or alternatively these services are raised or
altered, so as not to create a pedestrian safety hazard; and
19. Pathways must:
a. terminate in a manner that ensures smooth transition to existing surfaces for public
safety; and
b. be designed and constructed to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA),
Access to Premises Standard, Austroads and relevant sections of AS1428 Design for
access and mobility.
Earthworks and Retaining Walls
20. All earthworks shall be undertaken in accordance with the provisions of AS 3798 Guidelines
on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Development, with geotechnical testing
undertaken in accordance with Section 8 of the Standard, and to a minimum of ‘Level 2’ as
defined in Appendix B. Test results as required by AS 3798, and a certificate of quality and
uniformity of fill shall be provided by a RPEQ and submitted to Council.
21. Fall protection must be provided to retaining walls that are over 1m high and located around
the perimeter of the bio-retention basin.
22. Slope and batters are a maximum grade of:
a. 1 in 6 where in proximity to waterbodies;
b. 1 in 4 for grassed areas;
c. 1 in 3 for planted areas; and
d. 1 in 2 for combined structural engineering and planting solutions.
Stormwater Drainage
23. Appropriate scour protection must be provided at the outlet of all stormwater pipes including
temporary outlets.
24. Works associated with this permit must not adversely impact on the existing drainage
conditions on other properties (e.g., by blocking or interfering with natural overland flows).
25. Construction of all internal stormwater drainage works must comply with the relevant
section/s of Australian Standard AS/NZS 3500.3.
26. Prior to the completion of the development, all site surfaces must be effectively stabilised
using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation and which will continue
to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium- to long-term (refer to E&SC Advisory Notes).
For the purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does
not, or is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion
or lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
Erosion and Sediment Control
27. Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in Schedule 10 of Environmental Protection
Regulation 2019) must not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely
to be released should rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are
taken to prevent or minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
