Issue –

Advisory note 5 of MCU23/0139.01 requires that a Construction Management Plan is submitted as part of the
Operational works application.

Information Required:

2.   Submit a site-specific CMP, addressing the requirements listed in advisory note 5 of the higher order
     approval MCU23/0139.01.

Response

Subsequent to further discussions with Bax Engineering, it was advised that it would be more practical and
accurate if the civil contractor prepared the construction management plan, including a traffic management
plan, as the management will depend on the detailed construction methodology. Consequently, it is
requested that council make it a condition of the operational works application that the Construction
Management Plan is submitted prior to the pre-start meeting which is a standard condition imposed by
council.


Issue –

The subject application seeks approval for landscaping works, but no plans/documents have been submitted
for this component of the works.

Information Required:

3.   Provide landscaping plans for the proposed development.

Response

Please find attached a landscape plan which generally identifies that the existing landscaping throughout
the site will be retained.



Issue –

The submitted engineering plans propose the replacement of an existing headwall with a pit inlet. No details
have been supplied for this pit.

A site inspection by Council officers seems to indicate that the existing headwall is currently performing as a
stormwater outlet rather than inlet.

Information Required:

4.    Provide amended plans detailing how stormwater will be managed in this area, including, but not limited
      to:
     4.1. Levels for both existing and proposed stormwater infrastructure;
     4.2. Demonstrating that the proposed design will not create a nuisance by having rain water sitting in a pit;
     4.3. Details of any proposed elements (i.e. pits, headwalls, etc.).
