Dear Ms Schramm,
Re: Information Request
At: 12 Wyandra St Noosa Heads Qld 4567
With reference to the abovementioned development application and the subsequent
information request from Council, we have prepared a response to the engineering matters
raised as follows.
External Works (Footpath)
11. Provide an amended plan that demonstrates a 1.5m wide footpath will be
constructed along the frontage of the subject site. The amended plan must be
prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional
Engineer of Queensland) and align with the proposed footpath along the
frontage of 14 Wyandra Street.
Refer to the updated drawing 010.
Driveway Access
12. Provide additional detail on the proposed driveway and crossover. The detail
must be prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered
Professional Engineer of Queensland) and include, but not be limited to:
a. a design generally in accordance with RS-049, RS-050 and any associated
addendum;
b. levels and grade of the access driveway;
c. a longitudinal section extending from the centre of the formation along
Wyandra Street to the finished floor level of the proposed garages; and
d. demonstrate that a B99 vehicle will not scrape or bottom out while
entering or exiting the driveway.
Refer to the updated drawing 060.
13. Provide additional detail demonstrating how trip hazards will be eliminated
within the road reserve due to the construction of the proposed driveway
crossover. Please note that Council is unlikely to support private retaining
structures within the road reserve. The amended plan must be prepared by a
suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of
Queensland) and include, but not be limited to:

a. the full extent of the transition to the adjoining areas of verge.
Refer to the updated drawing 060. You will note that the design is sympathetic to the
existing site grading and there limited localised grading.
On-site Manoeuvrability
14. Provide an amended Turning Path Plan demonstrating that vehicles are able to
enter the proposed garages, manoeuvre on site, and exit the site in a forward
without colliding with any other vehicles, structures or future landscaping. The
additional detail must be prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ –
Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland) and include, but not be
limited to:
a. the adjacent garage carpark must be occupied with a B99 vehicle
during the vehicle swept path analysis.
Refer to the updated drawing 061 and 062.
Stormwater Management
15. Provide additional detail demonstrating how the rainwater collected in the
south-western corner of the on-site will be controlled, collected and released
without causing scour damage to neighbouring properties. The additional
detail must be prepared by a suitably qualified person (RPEQ – Registered
Professional Engineer of Queensland).
16. Provide sufficient detail to demonstrate that the development achieves
compliance with The Noosa Plan 2020 – Water Quality and Drainage Code and
Sustainable Building Design Code. The detail must be prepared by a suitably
qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland).
The Stormwater Management Plan has been amended to reflect a 3kL rainwater tank
per dwelling as per the Sustainable Building Design and Water Quality and Drainage
codes. Updated civil drawings also detail the design contours demonstrating no
worsening of overland flows to adjacent properties.
We believe that the above satisfactorily addresses the engineering matters raised in the
information request however, should additional information be required, please contact
our office directly.
Yours faithfully,
RECOR Pty Ltd
