8. APP C. Prelodgement Meeting Minutes

 Civil Engineering                          Officer Name - Monkeith Kadhum
 The following issues raise concerns and/or require further assessment:
  Stormwater Drainage: The submitted layout plan does not show area for stormwater
    quality treatment. A drainage strategy for the site addressing stormwater collection,
    detention, treatment and disposal into the Council’s drainage system is required.
  Stormwater Treatment: The submitted Site Layout plan does not show area for
    stormwater quality treatment, this needs to be shown as it may impact on the proposed
    parking and landscaping areas.
    Where proprietary devices are to be considered:
    o The application should demonstrate that a standard WSUD treatment train (i.e.
         biobasin/wetland/swales, etc.) cannot practically be achieved.
    o Any propriety device must demonstrate it can achieve the pollutant reduction targets
         over the lifetime of the development. This must be demonstrated in the form of
         MUSIC modelling and the input data must be acceptable and consistent with Healthy
         Waterways Water by Design guidelines & recommendations.
    o A maintenance plan (including cost forecasts) must be provided and demonstrate how
         this will be implemented throughout the life of the development.
  Existing Services and Easements: Council’s mapping shows an existing sewer line
    located along the dividing boundary line of the subject lots. This sewer line appears to run
    beneath the proposed building/s. The status of this line needs to be clarified and
    confirmed by Unitywater (refer to Important Note below). Also, the applicant needs to
    advise of any registered easement on site that will need to be cancelled and relinquished
    due to the development proposal.
  Access and Traffic Issues: A detailed traffic report, by RPEQ specialised in this field,
    assessing the impact of the development onto the traffic conditions in Eumundi Noosa
    Road and Lionel Donavan Drive is required. The traffic assessment should include:
    o Assessment of the sight distance/s and the impact of the proposed (existing) north
         entry access on the flow of southbound traffic from the roundabout (intersection of
         Eumundi Noosa Drive and Walter Hay Drive). Currently, it is difficult to enter this
         access driveway without obstructing or slowing down southbound traffic from the
         roundabout. It is particularly difficult for vehicles coming from the south on Eumundi
         Noosa Road making a U-turn at the roundabout and change lanes to enter the site.
         The intensity of the proposed development is likely to worsen the situation. The
         current driveway is likely has existed prior to the construction of the roundabout. This
         issue is a primary engineering concern and consideration should be given to any
         feasible option to relocate (southward) or delete this driveway.
    o In the submitted site layout, deliveries and service vehicles to the Beaurepaires
         garage need to drive through the customers parking areas, improvement to layout is
         required to remove this traffic conflict.
    o Consider potential traffic conflicts at the access to Lionel Donovan Drive associated
         with vehicles queuing and/or entering the Fast Food drive through.
    o Specify the types of vehicles expected to be used for deliveries to the proposed
         buildings and demonstrate adequate turning and manoeuvring areas are available to
         manage impact on traffic movement on the site.
    o Plan/s to demonstrate the fuel delivery trucks movement and manoeuvring within the
         site, entry to and exit from the site. Also, provide assessment of the impact on traffic
         during fuelling of the fuel storage tanks on the traffic circulation and vehicles’ entry to
         the site.
  Earthworks:          Provide information regarding the anticipated earthworks on the
    development site including any retention walls. It should be noted that filling along the
    north boundary of site may need to include filling and adjustment to the finished levels of
    the grass verge along Walter Hay Drive.



This document is a record of prelodgement discussions and will not be made available for public viewing. Prelodgement
discussions are conducted to explore development options and requirements, identify issues and provide guidance to prospective
applicants about Council’s policies for development. The recorded discussion items and outcomes in no way imply or commit to an
approval of the proposal on the part of Council or Council officers, nor guarantee that all potential issues associated with a
development proposal have been raised / identified. When a formal development application is lodged, the proposal will be
assessed on its planning merits in accordance with Council’s policy framework existing at the time of the assessment.
