                                                                                         2008/310



      To ensure Council’s sewer main is accessible for maintenance purposes and is protected from
      risk of damage no structures requiring a building permit (eg. buildings, swimming pools,
      retaining walls exceeding 1m in height, raised terraces, etc) shall be constructed within this
      ‘zone of influence’ or within 1.5m of the centreline of the sewer main, whichever is the greater.
      As such the applicant shall amend Building plans to ensure compliance.
Town Water Supply
22.   The site shall be connected to Council’s existing town water supply and be constructed in
      accordance with Council’s standards and requirements at no cost to Council.
23.   Each individual water connection to the water reticulation system shall extend to the property
      boundary and be metered. All fees for the supply of water meters shall be paid to the Council.
24.   All water meters must be located outside the property boundary and in an easily assessable
      location to facilitate unhindered reading by Council and/or Council’s contracted water meter
      readers, and not behind fences or locked gates. In this regard approval of the water meter
      configuration and location must be obtained from Council’s Water & Sewerage Capital Works
      Manager prior to lodgement and approval of hydraulic drawings.
Service Easements (Sewer)
25.   A registered easement shall be created over the zone of influence of all sewers within the
      subject site and over those parts of the subject site that are impacted upon by sewers on any
      adjoining sites. The easements shall generally be parallel to and centred over the sewer main
      and be equivalent in width to twice the depth to invert level of the sewer at the deepest point
      within the allotment (measured from the finished surface) and be no less than 3.0m wide
      overall. In this regard a licensed surveyor shall accurately locate all sewer mains and
      determine the necessary width of the easement, which shall be shown on any plans submitted
      for Building Works approval. To this extent the surveyor shall certify that the sewer and the
      zone of influence is wholly contained within the easement to be created.
      In addition to this the Applicant’s Solicitor shall give Council’s Solicitor an appropriate
      undertaking in writing that the Title Deed and the easement documents will be lodged at the
      Land Titles Office and any additional Titles Office forms or requisitions requiring the consent of
      Council will be attended to promptly.
      A duly executed copy of the easement shall be submitted to Council for perusal prior to the
      use commencing.
      Any changes required by Council’s Solicitor must be corrected immediately.
26.   No building or other structure shall be constructed or encroach over an easement.
Erosion and Sediment Control
27.   Any person acting on this permit shall prevent erosion and sediment export from leaving the
      site. Site control measures that are necessary during construction include, but are not limited
      to silt fencing, controlled gravel access to the site and controlled disposal of waste.
      In this regard plans detailing the methods of controlling erosion and sediment are required to
      be submitted as part of any application for a Development Permit for Building Works.
General
28.   Any damage caused to any public utility during the course of construction shall be repaired to
      Council’s standards and at no cost to Council.
29.   Any alteration of any public utility or other facilities necessitated by the development of the
      land or associated construction works external to the site shall be at no cost to Council.
30.   The transportation of all materials to and from the site shall be undertaken in a manner such
      that no particle matter escapes onto a public road. All vehicles carrying materials either to or
      from the site shall be covered to prevent materials including dust being windblown from the
      vehicle.
                                                                                      Page 4 of 13
