MCU16-0099 & OPW16-0218 - Proposed nbn Facility at 23 Jirrima Cres Cooroibah - Response to Information Request

    •   The location enables the height of the proposed facility to be restricted to 45 m whilst still achieving
        coverage to all the targeted localities and obtaining line of sight to other planned sites in the nbn™
        wireless network.

It is considered that the subject property at 23 Jirrima Crescent provides an appropriate location for the
proposed nbn™ fixed wireless facility considering its ability to achieve coverage objectives, minimise the
visual impact on the surrounding area and avoid adverse impacts on the environment.

Proposed Wireless Infrastructure Catchment Map

Council requires confirmation of the area this tower is to service as part of the proposed NBN wireless
network rollout.

Information Required

4       Please provide a map showing the area/houses intended to utilise the proposed wireless
        infrastructure. In addition, include the proposed service area overlayed with topographical mapping
        and number of houses proposed to be serviced.

Response

nbn advises that there will be approximately 150 properties, households and businesses that will be
serviced directly by the proposed facility in Cooroibah. The coverage extends approximately 4 km north-
west to Riverpark Drive, 3 km north-east along Johns Road, and south past Woodhaven Way.

nbn is unable to provide specific coverage maps to show which areas/houses will directly benefit from this
service until the network has been physically built and tested as there may be areas/houses on the fringe
that may alternatively benefit from the satellite service.

Co-Location

Include confirmation that co-location by other network providers will be actively encouraged.

Information Required


5       Please provide details as to how other telecommunications providers will be facilitated and
        encouraged to co-locate other wireless antennas on the proposed monopole.

Response
nbn has established and put in place a number of framework agreements with third party mobile network
operators which outlines the process and procedures in relation to co-location on the nbn™ network
infrastructure sites. These agreements address operational, commercial and technical requirements for all
incoming site share requests.


6       A written undertaking that the facility will be made available for the mounting of other communication
        providers’ antennas and that no restrictive provisions form part of any contract, agreements or other
        documentation associated with the development.
