Development Application Part 2 - Environmental & Stormwater Management Plans · OPW11/0335

4.        SITE FEATURES

The planned Stage 1 development seeks to change part of the site from a caravan park to
commercial, retail and restaurant uses. The remainder of the site will be developed as visitor
accommodation during the Stage 2 development. The proposal for Stage 1 is a commercial
development that will face David Low Way, and provide a street level frontage of retailing and
restaurant services, with an accommodation module on the upper level of the building. The
proposal includes car parking spaces and motor cycle bays located under the accommodation
and commercial buildings.

The objectives with regard to the conserving and utilising the landscape and ecological features
of the site are described in the conceptual Stormwater Management Plan (Simmonds and
Bristow, 2009). They include utilising existing native vegetation, topography, natural buffers to
the wetlands adjacent to the national park and aspect in building design.

The intensity of stormwater flows will be mitigated by one (1) large underground water storage
tank for the commercial building. The captured water will be reused for non-potable domestic
purposes (laundry, toilets) or for irrigation of the gardens. Stormwater will also be directed
through a treatment train consisting of a Bio-retention Trench, and a Constructed Wetland
System with a gabion wall diffuser adjacent to the Noosa National Park. This treatment train is
designed to achieve the median water quality objectives listed in Table 1 and Table 2.
