Appendix D - Civil Engineering Report · MCU21/0175

 26 July 2022


The existing and proposed water infrastructure in the vicinity of the site is shown on MPN Plan
8293-CP.1.01 attached in Appendix 3.


8         SEWER
Review of the sewer network from survey shows the following:
     •    An existing rising main collects flow from the Noosa Emporium and Noosa Civic shopping
          centre and conveys sewerage within the easement located to the North-West of the
          development site.
     •    An existing gravity sewer main exists within the car parking access road of the existing
          Emporium showrooms to the North-West. It is proposed that this sewer will be extended
          and used as the sewer connection for this development.

The proposed sewer is shown on MPN Plan 8293-CP.1.01 attached in Appendix 3. The depth and
location of the proposed sewer connection will be determined in consultation with the hydraulic
consultant and Unitywater during the detailed design stage of the development.


9         ROADWORKS
The development site will utilise the existing concrete driveway servicing the existing Emporium
showrooms. The rear loading dock and carparking will have adequately sized driveway to ensure
traffic is managed within the development site.

As part of the development a portion of the existing internal concrete driveway will be cut back to
provide separation between the proposed car park and through lanes of the driveway.

A footpath connection will be provided to the shop fronts of the development, to allow
continuation of pedestrian access through the Emporium showrooms.

The proposed internal on-grade car parking and loading / services area layouts are depicted on the
architectural plans prepared by Buchan Group attached in Appendix 1.

All loading bays and car parks will be constructed in accordance with the relevant Noosa Shire
Council and Australian Standards.


10        EARTHWORKS
A preliminary levels plan showing the proposed site levels for the on-grade car park and building
pad is shown on MPN Plan 8293-BE.1.01 attached in Appendix 3.

The design and construction of earthworks will be in accordance with the recommendations of a
geotechnical report along with AS 3798 – Guidelines on Earthworks for Commercial and
Residential Developments.

Any excavated material not suitable for fill will be removed from the site and disposed of
appropriately in an approved landfill.
