Dear Mark,

RE:    OPW24/0114 - INFORMATION REQUEST RESPONSE for Lot 5 Majestic Dr, Pomona

 Application No:              OPW24/0114
 Proposal:                    Operational Works
 Street Address:              Lot 5 Majestic Dr, Pomona
 Real Property Description: Lot 5 SP 324164
 Planning Scheme:             Noosa Plan 2020 (25 Sept 2020)

This correspondence is in response to Council’s Information Request dated 5 August 2024.
Please be advised that this response addresses all the items raised in Council’s Information
Request.

Information Request Item 1 – Issue: -
The submitted plans do not include sufficient information about whether the reduced width
of open drain at the rear of the property has the capacity to cater for the flow from the
upstream catchment and if so, how the embankment is finished behind the proposed
retaining wall.

Information Request Item 1 – Information Required
1. Please demonstrate that the reduced width of open drain at the rear of the property
functions and has the capacity to cater the flow from the upstream catchment.
2. Provide additional detail on how the area between the proposed retaining wall and the
property boundary will be treated/controlled to ensure that erosion does not occur.

Information Request Item 1, Part 1– Response: -
A desktop study was completed to determine the impact. The information used to
determine the situation was:
    1. The as-constructed survey of the original subdivision provided by Lands Surveying
       Dynamics; and
    2. Photo evidence of the batter for areas outside the property boundary and outside
       the survey extent. Photos were provided by Axis Surveys.

An approximation of the upstream catchment has been calculated to determine the flow
rate for a 1% AEP event.

As per the image below, the upstream catchment has been calculated to be approximately
1200m2.




Figure 1 – Catchment calculations based on the as-constructed survey provided by Land
Surveying Dynamics

The Time of Concentration has been calculated as 15mins using Figure 4.4 from QUDM for
the first 100m of flow and Friend’s equation for the subsequent flow. The resulting time of
concentration is approximately 15mins. Using the Mannings equation, the 1% AEP flow rate
has been calculated to be approximately 0.065m3/s.

The channel has a longitudinal grade of approximately 7.5%. The slope of the batter on the
development side has been calculated as a 1:3 batter.

The slope on the non-development side has been calculated as a 1:6 batter based on the
image below which was taken by Axis Survey.

Axis Survey

Based on the above parameters and a Manning’s “n” of 0.03, the flow depth for a 1% AEP
event is expected to be approximately 0.13m deep at the invert of the channel.

At 0.13m deep, and a 1:3 batter, the water is expected to extend 0.39m into the property.

The location of the retaining wall is located 1.4m in from the property boundary. As such
the proposed retaining wall is not expected to have any impact on the proposed channel
flow or the freeboard of the 1% AEP.

The civil design for the original subdivision was completed by TOD Consulting and assessed
and deemed compliant by Noosa Council. This letter has demonstrated that the proposed
retaining wall will not impact the flow of water, and hence will not impact on the original
assessment of the channel at the rear of the development.

Information Request Item 1, Part 2 – Response: -
As demonstrated by the response to information request item 1 part 1, stormwater flows
are not impacted by the proposed retaining wall. As such, the proposed batter treatment
has been designed by TOD Consulting and assessed and checked for compliance by Noosa
Council. It is proposed that no changes to the batter surfaces be made as part of the
proposed retaining wall for the land between the base of the retaining wall and the
property boundary.

Information Request Item 2 - Issue: -
Removal of the existing crossover. The submitted plan mentions that the existing crossover is
to be removed. Council has some concerns that the removal will impact on the ability to enter

Page 4

and exit the property opposite (Lot 6, No 8).

Information Request Item 2 – Information Required: -
Provide swept paths to demonstrate if the existing crossover can be removed without
impacting on the access to the opposite property. Please note that if the existing access must
be maintained that Council is unlikely to support its ongoing use to access Lot 5 (no 11).

Information Request Item 2 – Response: -
Please find attached the requested vehicle turning movement demonstrating that 8
Majestic Dr is not reliant on the existing crossover to 11 Majestic Dr, Pomona for entering or
exiting movements. The attached vehicle turning movement demonstrates that the
crossover to 11 Majestic Dr is not utilised to access 8 Majestic Dr. Based on this turning
movement it is proposed that the removal of the existing crossover to 11 Majestic Dr will
occur and that access to 11 Majestic Dr will be via the new proposed crossover detailed on
360CC drawing 03.

This response to Item 2 of the Information Request has already been provided to Noosa
Council along with the vehicle turning movement detailed on SK01 and Council have
confirmed that this response is acceptable and that the existing crossover to Lot 5 can be
removed.

360 Civil Consulting has provided all of the information requested in the Information
Request and request that Council proceed with its assessment of the development
application.

Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned on 0403 862 009 should Council require
any further information in order to finalise this operational works application.

Yours sincerely,
