               5.2. Internal Council Referrals
               The application was forwarded to the following internal Council officers for review and/or comment:
               •      Senior Development Engineer, Development Assessment
                      Parking & Access
                      A vehicle turntable has been integrated into the basement carpark design. Swept paths have
                      been provided, demonstrating all parks are able to exit in a forward gear.
                      Waste
                      4x240L bins have been provided contained within a refuse area, complying with the waste
                      PSP.
                      Stormwater
                      On-site stormwater detention has been provided. A water balance model was developed
                      addressing rainwater reuse, a 3,000 litre tank has been determined to provide a suitably
                      reliable source.
                      A lawful point of discharge has been achieved via the existing stormwater pit on the frontage,
                      requiring reconstruction due to poor condition.
                      Existing Services
                      An existing stormwater pipe traverses the property connecting to the upstream drainage
                      network. The IR response acknowledged the pipe must be protected during construction,
                      kept outside of the zone of influence (as per QDC MP1.4) and may require replacement
                      during construction.
                      Landslide Hazard
                      A geotechnical report prepared by Tectonic has demonstrated a low risk of instability
                      following the recommendations of the report.
               •      Senior Environment Officer, Development Assessment
                      The application material has provided an outcome that generally meets the requirements of
                      the landscape code.
                      The material includes a mixture of native trees shrubs and groundcovers provided
                      predominately along the boundaries of the property.
                      The site is not identified as containing areas of biodiversity significance.
                      Standard conditions are recommended.


               6.     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.
