Decision Letter - Change to an Existing Approval [As Published] - 132005.699.03

                                                                                           2005/699

42.   The internal driveway (or any other form of hard pavement for that matter) within the drip zone
      of any trees on site to be retained shall be designed to allow the flow of water through the
      pavement or be designed to direct stormwater runoff to the trees root system. To this extent
      the uncovered visitor spaces towards the frontage of the development may be able to
      incorporate Grass Rings or a similar device that allows water penetration.
43.   All pavements shall be constructed so as not to damage the root system of any trees to be
      retained and in this regard temporary fencing shall be provided around the trees during
      construction to help protect them.
44.   Plans shall be submitted to the Council for approval that clearly show the type and extent of
      pavements proposed, how they comply with the above conditions and also illustrating any
      temporary fencing to protect the trees prior to obtaining a Development Permit for Operational
      Works.
Frontage Works
45.   Footpath improvements such as topsoiling, grassing, and tree planting are required to the
      Serenity Close frontage of the site (if not already provided) in accordance with Planning
      Scheme Policy PSP1 Landscaping Guidelines. Grass shall be couch, free of weeds.
46.   A new 1.5 metre wide concrete path shall be constructed along the Serenity Close frontage of
      the site (if not already provided) in accordance with Council’s design standards and to an
      alignment that protects any significant vegetation or any underground services.
47.   All paths shall be designed and constructed to ensure pedestrian safety using non-slip
      materials and to produce an evenly graded surface finish.
Stormwater Drainage
48.   A stormwater management plan shall be prepared by a RPEQ, specialising in stormwater and
      water quality management incorporating the principles of the Environmental Management Plan
      for the Settlers Cove Development 23118DA, that demonstrates water reuse strategies,
      infrastructure capacity and effective treatment methodology. The use of rainwater harvesting
      tanks for irrigation purposes shall be incorporated in the overall design plans. These plans
      shall be submitted to Council for approval prior to obtaining a Development Permit for
      Operational Works.
49.   All stormwater drainage shall be collected on site and discharged so there is no net increase
      in stormwater runoff from the site.
50.   A stormwater holding tank shall be provided on site with a capacity to hold at least 40,000
      litres of water for the purpose of providing non-potable water supply to landscaped areas.
51.   On site swale drains will be required to capture and direct any overland stormwater runoff to
      the Infiltration Pits proposed on site. These swales shall be sized to carry a 3-month storm
      event and plans detailing their capacity, location, length, width and grades shall be submitted
      to Council for approval.
52.   To ensure polluted run-off does not enter any of the proposed Infiltration Pits, and ultimately
      the water table, stormwater run-off from the carparking areas and the driveways shall have the
      first flush (the first 12 mm of rainfall or hose-down) collected in a grease/oil arrestor (or similar
      device) provided on site prior to discharging into the infiltration pits.
      To this end, a detailed maintenance plan shall be prepared for the proposed grease/oil
      arrestors, which shall be submitted to the Council for approval prior to obtaining a
      Development Permit for Operational Works.

      The approved maintenance plan shall be incorporated in the Community Management
      Scheme for the development and a copy of this shall be provided for Council’s records prior to
      commencement of the approved Use.
