Response to Info Request - Planning Response MCU18-0015 & RAL18-0001 · MCU18/0015

   Item 23 – Provide a Bushfire Hazard Assessment which documents to likely future risk bushfire will
   present to the proposed development and provide methods which would reduce the risk to people
   and property to an acceptable level to meet the requirements of the State Planning Policy July
   2017.


   Response – Included at Attachment 7 is a Bushfire Hazard Assessment which undertakes an
   assessment of the on site vegetation and surrounding conditions. The report recommends a
   vegetation setback be provided to unmanaged vegetation to facilitate a construction level of BAL
   19 for units 1 and 2 and BAL 29 for Units 3-12 and the dwelling houses. Trees within this setback
   zone are able to be retained subject to management of the canopy understorey occurring. It is
   proposed that the bushfire management procedures would form part of the Community
   Management Statement for the dwellings. Any future rehabilitation plan prepared would be
   mindful of the need for planting species to be low flammable species to minimise the risk of
   bushfire risk to the site and surrounds.


   Item 24 – Conduct a water quantity assessment following appropriate methods found in the ARR16
   and QUDM guidelines and provide a report that clearly states methods, assumptions, results and
   solutions to show how the impacts of the development will be mitigated.
   Item 25 – Conduct water quality modelling and reporting to the standard required in the relevant
   guidelines, policies and codes. Address the Noosa Plan Water Sensitive Design Code to demonstrate
   that the development will comply.


   Response – The Engineering Report included at Attachment 4 undertakes a comprehensive
   assessment of water quantity and quality measures in accordance with current best practice
   standards. In terms of quantity the proposed development will not cause an actionable nuisance
   for downstream properties. An underground SPEL tank is proposed to treat stormwater from the
   proposed unit site to ensure it meets required target pollutant load reductions.


   Item 26 – Provide traffic assessment by suitably qualified and experience RPEQ of the increase in
   traffic and its impact on the traffic flows and safety at the intersection of Attunga Height with
   Viewland Drive and the intersection of Viewland Drive with Noosa Drive, particularly during peak
   hours traffic. The assessment should include any proposed traffic management measures and/or
   roadworks improvement at these two intersections.
