Dear Sir/Madam
Information Request
Sustainable Planning Act 2009

I refer to your application and advise that Council requires further information to satisfactorily assess the proposal.
application details
Application No:	REC16/0015
Proposal:	Development Permit to Reconfigure a Lot - 1 Lot into 2 Lots and Access easement
Street Address:	2 David Low Way CASTAWAYS BEACH  QLD  4567
Real Property Description:	Lot 71 MCH 2854
Planning Scheme:	The Noosa Plan (16 September 2013)
information required
The information requested is set out below:

Issue
The site is mapped as containing Environmental Protection areas and within a Riparian Buffer Area under The Noosa Plan’s Biodiversity Overlay.  It is also located within a Coastal Management District.  Vegetation protection of the highest order is warranted.

Information Required
Please provide amended plans in accordance with Figure 1 below, showing:
The vegetation located between the two existing dwellings to also be protected by covenant; and

Vegetation along the seaward boundary of both proposed lots to a minimum width of 6.0m protected by covenant.
Issue
Specific Outcome O1 of the Reconfiguring a Lot Code requires effluent disposal areas to be provided for each proposed lot where not located within a sewerage service area. Being located in a Riparian Buffer Area and a Coastal Management District, effluent disposal areas must be appropriately sited to allow for the disposal of effluent in a manner that minimises risk of harm to people and the environment.
Information Required
Please provide an effluent disposal report from a suitably qualified person which provides an assessment regarding the capacity of existing effluent disposal systems for each dwelling. The effluent disposal report must assess whether existing systems are appropriately designed and sited and operate in a manner which does not cause harm to people and the environment.

Issue
The site is mapped as a Medium Bushfire Hazard Area under the Natural Hazards Overlay of The Noosa Plan.

Information Required
Provide a bushfire risk assessment demonstrating the site is at low risk of bushfire, or alternatively, demonstrating how bushfire risk can be managed in accordance with the requirements of the Bushfire Hazard Overlay Code of The Noosa Plan.

Issue
The existing access arrangement to David Low Way from the subject site is substandard, and considered unsuitable to accommodate the additional lot.

Information Required
Please provide engineering details to improve the safety of the access (Any works necessary to improve visibility to the south and north by clearing, removal of existing fencing, providing additional features, etc, together with any necessary formation and line marking improvements).

Issue
The existing Council footpath along the David Low Way frontage appears to be constructed within the property at the southern end of the site. Council requires that the footpath be wholly located within road reserve.

Information Required
5	Please indicate on the plans the location of the footpath and the extent of any proposed dedication.
End of Information Request
Under the provisions of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009, you have three options available in response to this Information Request. You may give the referral agency (in this instance Council) and the assessment manager:
