demolition will remove the existing footings, it will not get to the excavation levels that trigger
acid sulfate concerns required by the new basement.

Amendment of condition 24 is requested to require submission of the Acid Sulfate Soils Report
prior to commencement of new building works.

Condition 25

Condition 25 requires the access driveway within the site to be a minimum of 3.5m. In the
process of proceeding with detailed building deign work, Queensland Fire Service and Rescue,
have asked that the proposed fire hydrants and boosters be located closer to Hastings Street, this
may require a lesser access driveway width than the previously submitted plans indicate. In
order to make allowance for this requirement it is requested that the condition be amended to
3.2 m minimum width, alihough every endeavour shal! be made to keep if as wide as possible.
(We note that at 3.2m the driveway would still be 200 mm wider than the Breakers at its minimum
point.)

Foster Designs have advised, after consulting Traffic engineers that a 3.2m width of the access
driveway would still comply with the Australian Standard. Reference is made to clause 3.2.2 that
states that “in other cases subject to consideration of traffic volumes on a case by case basis,
lesser widths, down to a minimum of 3.0 m at a domestic property may be provided. As a guide,
30 or more movements in a peak hour {in and out combined) would usually require provision for
two or more vehicles to pass on a driveway, i.e. a minimum width of 5.5 m." As accepted by
Council in the assessment of the application the development will not generate 30 or more
movements in a peak hour. A 3.5m driveway only allows for a single car width movement and as
such reduction to 3.2m would not resu!t in any further impact.

Amendment of condition 25 is requested to allow a minimum driveway width of 3.2m.
Condition 45

Condition 45 requires the existing sewer main that traverses the site adjacent to the northern
boundary and the ‘zone of influence’ to be accurately located and shown on plans submitted
for Operational works approval. The sewerage line in question was the subject of a search and
identification exercise at the beginning of the year. Mike Froude has confirmed that the sewer
will be redundant, and made safe and retired from use as part of the new building works.
Therefore no need exits for the location of the sewer main and ‘zone of influence’ and as such
this condition is unnecessary and irrelevant.

Deletion of condition 45 is requested.

Condition 51

Condition 51 requires a registered easement to be created over the ‘zone of influence’ of any
sewer main within or impacting upon the subject site. As detailed in condition 45 discussion
above, the only sewer impact is the redundant sewer main adjacent to the northern boundary.
As such this condition is unnecessary and irrelevant.

Deletion of condition 51 is requested.

Condition 59

Condition 59 requires the submission of a traffic management plan prior fo issue of any

Development Permits for Demolition, Building or Operational works. Traffic management plans
are usually prepared by the contractor after engagement and are usually given to Council at
