                            demonstrate such works are accepted by DTMR and confirm they will be
                            undertaken by the applicant.


                  Issue - Access
                  There is concern with the sight line between a vehicle waiting to depart from the southern
                  driveway (furthest from Holts Road) and a vehicle approaching from the access easement
                  along the southern side of the site that leads to Taylor Court. This issue could be overcome
                  if the southern driveway were for site “entry” only, rather than “entry and exit” as currently
                  proposed.
                  Proposals for one-way access restrictions are also unclear.
                  Information Required
                  16        Provide assessment and comments as to whether the Southern driveway should be
                            amended to be an “entry only” arrangement.
                  17        Identify how it is proposed to ensure vehicles do not enter the site at the proposed
                            exit driveway, and also how exit at the entry driveway (suggested above) would be
                            prohibited.


                  Issue – Vehicle & Pedestrian Access
                  Further details are required in relation to vehicle and pedestrian access.
                  Information Required
                  18        Identify proposed levels and gradients on the site, including at the proposed access
                            driveways, and assess those gradients against the requirements of Australian
                            Standard AS/NZS 2890.1-2004.
                  19        Identify the path that future workers of the Taylor Court industrial estate will use
                            when walking to the proposed shop and fast food outlet.


                  Issue – Water Quality
                  The property is located within the Lake MacDonald Water Supply Catchment. Specific
                  Outcome O11 of the Natural Resources Overlay Code requires that Development does not
                  have adverse effects on the quality or quantity of water entering Lake Macdonald, Cedar
                  Pocket dam or their tributaries, including effects on a) nutrient or other chemical levels; and
                  b) sediment loads; and c) turbidity. Whist the application has demonstrated how the State
                  Planning Policy of objective for pollutant reduction targets has been achieved, these
                  objectives only provide for a percentage reduction of nutrient increases from development –
                  and allow for an increase in nutrients from the development to receiving waters. The
                  applicant has therefore not demonstrated that the development will not increase nutrient
                  levels within Lake Macdonald.
                  Information Required
                  20        Demonstrate that there will be no increase in nutrients, otherwise demonstrate that
                            the owners of Lake MacDonald are satisfied that the increase in nutrients expected
                            from the proposed development will not contribute to an unacceptable cumulative
                            increase in nutrients entering Lake MacDonald.
