Decision Notice plus copy sent to Referral Agencies [As Published] · 132007.2398

                                                                                            2007/2398



55.   An emergency parking bay shall be available at all times in front of the community village
      centre and the aged care residence.
56.   Parking shall be provided for boats, trailers and caravans etc.
57.   Visitor car parking shall be conveniently located to all independent living units, village
      community centre and the aged care residence.
Earthworks
58.   All excavation and filling works required on site must be carried out in accordance with
      Council’s Planning Scheme Policy PSP5 – Engineering Design Standards. A Development
      Permit for Operational Works shall be required.
59.   Fill imported to the site may only be from a site licensed with The Environmental Protection
      Agency or from a site for which a Development Permit for Operational Works has been issued
      approving the export of fill.
60.   A registered practicing Geotechnical Engineer shall test the existing ground conditions for
      suitability of placing additional fill, prior to such fill being placed.
      Filling works shall be restricted to the subject site itself, and the finished fill levels are to taper
      to the existing levels on the property. Batters shall be at a maximum grade of 1:4 unless
      retained by an engineer-designed wall or approved retention method.
61.   Following completion of the filling works and prior to endorsement of the Plan of Survey, the
      registered practicing Geotechnical Engineer supervising the works shall submit compaction
      tests across the entire filled areas and make recommendations if special foundations
      requirements will apply.
62.   Earthworks carried out on site must not adversely affect the drainage conditions on any other
      properties or existing roads. Filling works required on site shall not cause additional ponding of
      water on any adjoining lands or the blockage of, or interference with, any natural
      watercourses. Detailed site surveys indicating natural surface levels and contours of the
      affected properties (eg Lot1 RP165418) must be provided with the application for a
      Development Permit for Operational Works for Filling and Drainage.
      This may require the design and construction of drainage pipes and/or an overland flow-path
      within the development site that caters for drainage from the adjoining sites for a design storm
      with an Average Recurrence Interval of 1 in 100 years.
Vegetation Protection & Preservation
63.   Vehicular pavements within the drip zone of any of the existing trees on site to be retained
      shall be designed as a pervious pavement (such as grass paving cells or similar), as this will
      allow water that falls on this surface to penetrate to the trees root system. The pavement shall
      be constructed so as not to damage the tree or their root system and in this regard temporary
      fencing shall be provided around the trees during construction to help protect them.
      Plans shall be submitted to the Council for approval that clearly show the type and extent of
      the pervious pavement and the temporary fencing prior to obtaining a Development Permit for
      Operational Works.
64.   Where retained trees are located in areas proposed to filled on site (or are located on
      neighbouring allotments to the actual site to be filled), there will be a need to prevent fill
      material from being placed on the trees root system. To this end the design of the filling works
      will need to incorporate terracing around the tree or a similar means of ensuring that the
      natural ground level around the trees remains generally the same as existing. These
      measures shall clearly be shown on the plans submitted for Operational Works approval and
      any drainage required to drain these areas shall also be shown on the plans.
