Decision Notice - Change to an Existing Approval - 010.2005.00002200.003 [As Published] · 132005.2200.03

                                                                                       2005/2200


27.   Where retained trees are located in areas proposed to be filled on site (or are located on
      neighbouring allotments to the actual site to be filled), there will be a need to prevent fill
      material from being placed on the trees root system. To this end the design of the filling works
      will need to incorporate terracing around the tree or a similar means of ensuring that the
      natural ground level around the trees remains generally the same as existing. These
      measures shall clearly be shown on the plans submitted for Operational Works approval and
      any drainage required to drain these areas shall also be shown on the plans.
Frontage Works
28.   Footpath improvements such as topsoiling, grassing, and tree planting are required to the
      frontage of the site in accordance with Planning Scheme Policy PSP03 Landscaping Plants &
      Guidelines. Grass shall be couch, free of weeds.
Stormwater Drainage
29.   All stormwater drainage shall be collected on site and discharged generally in accordance with
      the engineering plans, Drawings Nos 1658 and 1658-1 dated 13 December 2006 by
      Construction Hydraulic Building Service Engineers and as amended by the Plumbing Permit.
30.   Roof runoff from any new dwelling shall be directed to a rainwater storage system or tank
      (minimum storage 5000 litres per dwelling) that is installed to ensure water from the tank can
      be used for external uses (such as watering gardens, irrigation, ornamental ponds, water
      features, topping-up swimming pools, outdoor cleaning, etc) and for use in flushing of toilets
      internal to the dwelling or as approved in the Plumbing Permit. All rainwater tanks are to be
      designed and installed in accordance with the Queensland Development Code (QDC), Part 25
      – Rainwater Tanks, and shall be part of the plumbing application in conjunction with the
      building approval. The location and capacity of the tank and infiltration trenches shall be
      clearly shown on the plans submitted for Building Works approval and any overflow shall be
      directed to infiltration and/or overflow trenches generally in accordance with Drawings Nos
      1658 and 1658-1 dated 13/12/2006 by Construction Hydraulic Building Service Engineers and
      ensuring not to adversely impact on the sand dune slope and/or the adjoining properties. A
      Compliance Permit for plumbing works shall be required.
31.   All site stormwater drainage shall be by means of a gravity system.
Sewer Mains
32.   The site shall be connected to Council’s existing sewerage reticulation systems and be
      constructed in accordance with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to Council.
33.   All effluent waste flows from the developed site shall be directed to the internal pump well or
      holding tank/s generally in accordance with the Integrated Water Management Plan report
      dated December 2006 and Drawing No 1658-2 dated 13 December 2006 by Construction
      Hydraulic Building Service Engineers.
34.   The sewer pumping system shall have minimum a 12 hour storage capacity between alarm
      and overflow levels. The system is to be connected to a 24 hour monitoring service which is
      notified in the event of a high level alarm. The system shall be designed to ensure that the
      pressure main has less than a one hour detention time to prevent odour production including
      during occupant absences. A flushing system may be required to ensure detention times do
      not exceed one hour. Engineering plans for the sewer layout and the sewer pumping system
      shall be submitted to Council for approval prior to the Pluming and Drainage Application. Any
      enquires in relation to this matter can be directed to Council’s Sewer Section (Tel 54495288).
Earthworks and Site Stability
35.   All civil works on the site shall take into consideration the findings and the recommendations of
      the geotechnical investigation report Project 306-2512 dated December 2006 by Soil Surveys
      Engineering.
