            Attention:                        Patrick Murphy

            Dear Sir,

                        Re:                   Information Request
                        At:                   9 Bottlebrush Ave, Noosa Heads, QLD 4567


            With reference to the abovementioned information request for the development
            application (ref: MCU21/0133 & OPW21/0220), we have prepared an update to the
            engineering aspects of the submission to address the issues raised in the Request for
            Information as follows:

            1. Provide amended plans that include:
                    1.1. The longitudinal section extending to the centreline of the road formation
                    1.2. The plans with the footpath section located where pedestrians could
                    reasonably cross to the existing path in the frontage of the adjoining property
                    1.3. The footpath section with a consistent width on the relevant plans (desirably
                    2m, 1.5m minimum)
                    1.4. Additional sections within the road reserve which clearly indicate the transitions
                    to the adjacent verge areas which do not create trip or fall hazards.
                    Please note that Council does not support private retaining structures in the road
                    reserve

            The longitudinal section has been extended to the centreline of the road formation, and
            the grades have been updated to provide for a 1.5m path zone adjacent the kerb to align
            to the existing footpath to the north. An additional section has been created showing the
            transition to adjacent verge areas to demonstrate that no retaining structures are
            necessary within the road reserve.

                    1.5. The depths of the existing services in the road reserve determined by
                    potholing. If it is apparent that services may need to be altered provided written
                    approval from the relevant service provider

            We request that the requirement for potholing to locate the existing services be
            conditioned to be required with pre-start works as part of the development approval
            conditions.

            2. Provide amended plans that demonstrate that all spaces are accessible for a B99 vehicle
            to enter the space in a forward gear, reverse from the space and exit the site in a forward
            gear in a total of 3 movements.
