Scg 33002(L1)

    −    We are proposing to re-profile a small corner of the vegetated embankment adjacent the access point to
         open the visual aspect to oncoming traffic improving the safety, 2-3 trees will require removal as part of
         this work but will be offset by new planting under the guidance and direction of Landcare. This is shown
         on our attached plan SCG Drawing No: 33002 – C1.1.

    −    It is worth noting that Section 3.4 – “Sight Distance at Property Entrances” from AUSTROADS – Guide to
         Road Design Part 4A notes the following: -

           “Obtaining Approaching Sight Distance(ASD) at domestic accesses is preferable but may not always
           be necessary due to the familiarity with their location of users”.

Issue –Lawnville Road Driveway Access

  Council recognise that the existing Lawnville Road driveway crossover is not in accordance with Council’s
  standard drawing (RS-056). Council is concerned that the unsealed crossover may result in a loss of traction
  for vehicles entering and exiting the driveway, which may cause unsafe traffic conditions.

Response:

Please see amended architectural plan to include notations for the existing crossover to be sealed with asphalt in
accordance with Council’s Standard Details RS-049 and RS-050, as there is an existing kerb and channel is in
place. We do not foresee any concerns with proposed levels/driveway grading therefore, don’t believe a detailed
engineering plan is warranted for this stage of the approval process.

Issue – Earthworks

  The submitted documentation includes significant amounts of earthworks across the site. An Earthworks
  Plan has not been provided.

Response:

Please see attached proposed Bulk Earthworks plan (SCG Drawing No: 32002-C2.1) for the proposed residential
dwelling indicating proposed cut/fill levels. The proposed retaining walls are all internal to the site. Future detailed
retaining wall design will be completed by the structural Engineer and RPEQ certified through a building permit,
assessed and approved by a private building certifier.

If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact our office.

Yours faithfully
