21598 - Glenridge Drive - STAGE 1 -Response to info request

     3. Issue

The proposed table drain works along the frontage of 60 Glenridge Drive drains towards the north-west.
Council are concerned that the overland flow within the table drain will pool on the south-eastern side of
the existing driveway crossover due to the lack of drainage under the crossover.

Council recognise that as part of the Higher Order Approval, the developer and landowner came to an
agreement that the existing driveway crossover (and internal driveway) would be reconstructed to
accommodate for the proposed works.

Information Required

Provide an additional driveway design plan. The driveway design plan must be prepared by a suitably
qualified person (RPEQ – Registered Professional Engineer of Queensland) and include, but not be
limited to:
a.       a design generally in accordance with Noosa Council’s standard drawing RS-056 and any
         associated addendum;

b.      demonstrate that the overland flow within the proposed free draining table drain will not pool
        along the southern frontage of 60 Glenridge Drive.

Response

There is no table drain on the south eastern side of the existing driveway crossover. The road is
constructed on an embankment in this location and run off generally sheet flows from the road reserve
into lot 8 and ultimately to the gully to the south. There is a minor depression (150mm deep) adjacent to
the existing driveway crossover which we have shown as being filled to eliminate the potential of any
water ponding in this area. Note that there is insufficient depth to install a pipe under the existing
crossover.

I can confirm that there is no agreement between the developer and landowner to reconstruct the existing
driveway crossover and internal driveway. Notwithstanding we agree that the crossover needs to be
upgraded in order to comply with condition 51 of the higher order approval. As such these works have
been added to our drawing C003.

We trust the above is satisfactory. Should you have any queries regarding this matter please contact the
undersigned.

Yours faithfully
