Internal Council Referrals
This application was referred internally to Council’s Senior Environmental Officer and to Parks and Gardens’ Tree Assessment Officer as the applicant proposed to remove 1 significant, mature street tree within the road reserve.
Council’s Senior Environmental Officer and Tree Assessment Officer provided their assessment and provided the applicant with two options. Option one included engaging a suitably qualified Arborist to conduct an assessment of the tree to determine if, with proper methods, the health of the existing street tree would not be severely affected as a result of the proposed works. Option two provided approval to remove the existing street tree and provide a suitable replacement street tree.
The applicant opted to proceed with option two. Accordingly, Condition 4 was written.
conclusion & reasons for decision
The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme and does not raise any significant issues that cannot be addressed by reasonable and relevant conditions. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.

DURING CONSTRUCTION
Engineering
The developer must meet any costs to repair damage to any Council asset during construction, where damage is a result of the development works. Damage to assets must be repaired immediately where it creates a hazard to the community.

All works must be constructed and work procedure undertaken in accordance with:
The approved plans/documents and conditions detailed in this Decision Notice
All relevant Noosa Council Planning Scheme Policies, standard drawings, standard specifications and guidelines
The latest version of the Healthy Waterways document “Water Sensitive Urban Design Technical Design Guidelines for South East Queensland” for all water quality devices to be constructed on site
Works within Road Reserve/Reinstatement
Safe vehicle and pedestrian access on all streets in the vicinity of the development must be maintained at all times. Should footpath/road closures be necessary to carry out construction works, Council’s Engineering Officer must be notified prior to the proposed closure and all requirements complied with.
All frontage works must match neatly with existing road and verge/footpath features. Additional works beyond the frontage may be required to provide an acceptable transition to existing road and verge/footpath profiles.
Electrical conduits or other services proposed to be installed within existing and proposed road reserves under existing sealed carriageways, concrete pathways, concrete/sealed driveways or significant vegetation must be installed by boring. Trenching is not permitted, unless specifically approved by Council.
Site Access and Driveways
Driveway crossovers must be constructed in accordance with council’s Standard Drawings RS-049, RS-050 and any associated addendum.
The following must be complied with during the construction of the required crossover/driveway:
The driveway surfacing must consist of either an approved hot mixed asphaltic concrete or patterned/plain concrete.
The driveway must be constructed so as not to concentrate stormwater runoff onto neighbouring properties
Underground service conduits for water supply, electricity and any other services must be provided as part of the access driveway
Where there is an existing pedestrian path, a matching crossfall must be provided for the driveway on the alignment of the path, for the full width of the path
The property access must be located a minimum of 1m clear of existing power poles, streetlights or other signage. The developer is responsible for any necessary relocation of existing services to provide this clearance and must contact the relevant service authorities and comply with their requirements in relation to these works.
Earthworks and Retaining Walls
Slope and batters are a maximum grade of:
1 in 6 where in proximity to waterbodies
1 in 4 for grassed areas.
1 in 3 for planted areas
1 in 2 for combined structural engineering and planting solutions.
Stormwater Drainage
Appropriate scour protection must be provided at the outlet of all stormwater pipes including temporary outlets.
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).
Removal of Existing Trees and Vegetation
Removal of existing trees and vegetation must be undertaken by a qualified person* and must include:
Stump grinding to below finished surface level
Rectification to the finished surface levels and materials
No damage to other vegetation for retention
Legal disposal of all removed vegetation and debris
Replanting in accordance with the approved plans
*(Refer to Advisory Note)
Fauna Management
A qualified person* must be engaged to manage fauna prior and during clearing to:
Ensure works are carried out in accordance with the Nature Conservation Act 1992.
Undertake pre-clearing inspections including fauna relocation and removal or blocking of all vacant hollows.
Ensuring clearing works avoids nesting times of animals and birds.
Co-ordinate staging and sequence of clearing with fauna protection.
Protect and recover fauna during clearing operations (not previously removed).
Manage the translocation of animals and recovery procedures in accordance with relevant legislation.
*(Refer to Advisory Note)
Erosion and Sediment Control
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.
Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration system or adversely impacting on other properties. Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be found inefficient.
The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained in accordance with the supervising engineer instructions and the current best practice standards * (Refer to Advisory Note).
The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council’s drainage system or waterways.
Prior to the completion of the development and commencement of use, 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. 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.
Damage to Services and Assets
Any damage caused to existing services and assets as a result of the development works must be repaired at no cost to the asset owner at the following times:
where the damage would cause a hazard to pedestrian or vehicle safety, immediately; or
where otherwise, upon completion of the works associated with the development.
Any repair work which proposes to alter the alignment or level of existing services and assets must first be referred to the relevant service authority for approval.

Council reserves the right to call up any performance bond held or levy charges against the property, should emergency works be required to be undertaken by Council to make the site safe due to inactivity on the development site for extended periods of time.
Should any changes or modifications to the approved plans be required as a result of construction constraints, a “Request to change an existing approval” under the Planning Act 2016 must be made. Amended plans clearly indicating the changes must be lodged with this application along with the appropriate fees.
Prestart, On and Off Maintenance Inspections Request
Contact Council on 5329 6500 to arrange a prestart or an inspection giving a minimum of 5 business days notice of preferred inspection time.
