ATTENTION: DEVELOPMENT ASSESSMENT


Dear Sir/Madam,

RE:      RESPONSE TO COUNCIL INFORMATION REQUEST
Development Application - Material Change of Use Transport Type 2 Carpark over land described
as Lot 5 on SP213104 and located at 4-8 Lower Mill Road, Cooroy and Lot 7 on SP173771 and
located at 16 Lower Mill Road, Cooroy.

I refer to the above application and the information request issued by your Council and dated 11th March 2020
and our subsequent request to extend the relevant period. This request listed ten (10) items that Council
considers is necessary in order to complete its assessment of the above application.

The applicant provides the following response:

Item 1:                Update all flood mapping figures to show the extent of the car parking works on all
                       figures or provide additional figures which focus on the subject application area

Applicant’s Response to Item 1: As a result of a review of the proposal by flood modelling specialists and
traffic consultants, the carpark has been relocated to be wholly within Lot 5 on SP213104 with the carpark
above the Defined Flood Event. Please refer to Attachment A and Attachment B which provide revised
plans of the carpark and Attachment C which provides a flood assessment for the site.


Item 2:                Clearly identify the areas of the car parking which do not meet the traffic ability criteria
                       of QUDM for each AEP

Applicant’s Response to Item 2: The Flood Assessment for the proposal (refer Attachment C) details that
as the carpark has now been relocated to land that is currently above the DFE, the QUDM trafficability criteria
is exceeded. The new location of the proposed carpark and flood mapping is illustrated below.
