          Works within Road Reserve/Reinstatement
    46.   Safe pedestrian access on all streets in the vicinity of the development must be
          maintained at all times. Should footpath/road closures be necessary to carry out
          construction works, Council’s Engineering Officer must be notified prior to the proposed
          closure and all requirements complied with.
    47.   All frontage works must match neatly with existing road and verge/footpath features.
          Additional works beyond the frontage may be required to provide an acceptable
          transition to existing road and verge/footpath profiles.
    48.   Electrical conduits or other services proposed to be installed within existing and
          proposed road reserves under existing sealed carriageways, concrete pathways,
          concrete/sealed driveways or significant vegetation must be installed by boring.
          Trenching is not permitted, unless specifically approved by Council.
          Site Access and Driveways
    49.   Any existing unnecessary or redundant property accesses must be removed, and the
          kerb, footpath and verge area reinstated to match the existing footpath and/or verge
          treatments. Grassed verge areas to be reinstated must be provided with 100 mm
          topsoil and grass seed or turf, and must be maintained by the developer until
          established.
    50.   The following must be complied with during the construction of the required
          crossovers/driveways:
          a.    The driveway surfacing must consist of either an approved hot mixed asphaltic
                concrete or patterned/plain concrete.
          b.    The driveway must be constructed so as not to concentrate or redirect
                stormwater runoff onto neighbouring properties.
          c.    Underground service conduits for water supply, electricity and any other services
                must be provided as part of the access driveway.
          d.    Where there is an existing pedestrian path, a matching crossfall must be provided
                for the driveway on the alignment of the path, for the full width of the path.
          e.    The property access must be located a minimum of 1m clear of existing power
                poles, streetlights or other signage. The developer is responsible for any
                necessary relocation of existing services to provide this clearance and must
                contact the relevant service authorities and comply with their requirements in
                relation to these works.
          Earthworks and Retaining Walls
    51.   All earthworks shall be undertaken in accordance with the provisions of AS 3798
          Guidelines on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Development, with
          geotechnical testing undertaken in accordance with Section 8 of the Standard, and to
          a minimum of ‘Level 1’ as defined in Appendix B. Test results as required by AS 3798,
          and a certificate of quality and uniformity of fill shall be provided by a RPEQ and
          submitted to Council prior to Council signing the Plan of Survey.
          Stormwater Drainage
    52.   Appropriate scour protection must be provided at the outlet of all stormwater pipes
          including temporary outlets.
