Issue
The subject property currently has 5 vehicle access driveways including 3 recently constructed driveways located in the eastern part of the frontage.

driveways that are in accordance with Council’s Standard Drawing RS-056 and any associated addendum
driveways that will convey runoff along the existing table drains and not direct surface flows on to the road formation
the sight lines/distances currently available at the driveway locations, the local speed environment and comments regarding the suitability of the constructed driveways and compliance with the relevant standard drawing
any required earthworks in the road reserve
any vegetation in the road reserve that has been removed during the construction of the 3 new driveways and any vegetation that is required to be removed to provide the necessary sight lines/distances
certification that states that if the driveways are constructed in accordance with the design plans, the driveways will be safe for their intended use
