1         INTRODUCTION
Calibre Consulting (QLD) Pty Ltd (formerly Brown Consulting) has been commissioned by Palm Lake Resort to prepare a
Civil Engineering to support the permissible change application for a retirement community development located on
Trading Post Road Cooroy. The development comprises of Independent Living Units (ILUs), an Aged Care Facility and

From an engineering perspective, this report provides preliminary plans for earthworks, roadworks, turning paths, water
and sewer reticulations and erosion and sediment control which are provided in Section 8.



2         EARTHWORKS
The earthworks will be limited to that required for roadworks, allotment access and the installation of services. The
allotments will be left as close as possible to existing surface levels to preserve the existing vegetation and minimise
disturbance to the site. Bulk earthworks plans are provided in Calibre Consulting Drawing No. B14158-SK01 & SK02.
