Digital copies of a pre-construction work CCTV video and associated report(s) of any Council stormwater main within two metres of the works must be submitted to Council prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016.

The pre- and post-construction work CCTVs will be relied upon to establish the extent of damage caused to the Council’s infrastructure during construction. In the event that the owner fails to provide to the Council a pre-construction works CCTV video of the Council’s infrastructure, then any damage to the Council infrastructure identified in the post-construction CCTV will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

Advice:  A tractor camera will be required to obtain adequately clear footage.

Reason for condition

To ensure that any of the Council infrastructure and/or site-related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner’s full cost

ENG sw2.2

The Council’s stormwater infrastructure adjacent to and/or within the subject site must be protected from damage during the construction of the development.

Digital copies of a post-construction work CCTV video and associated report(s) of any Council stormwater main within two metres of the works must be submitted to the Council after completion of all work but prior to the issue of any Certificate of Completion.

The pre- and post-construction work CCTVs will be relied upon to establish the extent of damage caused to the Council’s infrastructure during construction. In the event that the owner fails to provide to the Council a pre-construction works CCTV video of the Council’s infrastructure, then any damage to the Council infrastructure identified in the post-construction CCTV will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

Advice:  A tractor camera will be required to obtain adequately clear footage.

Reason for condition

To ensure that any of the Council infrastructure and/or site-related service connections affected by the proposal will be altered and/or reinstated at the owner’s full cost

ENG sw4

The development must be drained to the Council’s stormwater infrastructure taking into account the limited receiving capacity of Council’s infrastructure. Any new stormwater connection(s) required must be constructed, at the owner’s expense, prior to issue of a Certificate of Completion or first occupation, whichever comes first.

Detailed design drawings showing both existing and proposed services and calculations must be submitted and approved, prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016. The detailed design drawings must:

1.         Be certified by a qualified and experienced engineer.

2.         Include the location of the proposed connections and all existing connections.

3.         Clearly delineate the separation of services from the new dwelling and existing.

4.         Include the size and design of the connection(s) such that they are appropriate to safely service the development given the limited receiving capacity of Council infrastructure.

5.         Include long-sections of the proposed connection(s) clearly showing any nearby services, cover, size, material and delineation of public and private infrastructure.

6.         Clearly distinguish between public and private infrastructure.

All work required by this condition must be undertaken in accordance with the approved detailed design drawings.

Advice:

·                Once the detailed design drawings have been approved the Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

Reason for condition

To ensure the site is drained adequately

A stormwater management report and design must be submitted andapproved, prior to issue of any consent under the Building Act 2016. The stormwater management report and design must be prepared by a suitably qualified engineer and include:

1.         Detailed design and supporting calculations of the detention tank, sized such that there is no increase in flows from the developed site up to 5% AEP storm events.  All assumptions must be clearly stated.

2.         Design drawings of the detention tank showing the layout, the inlet and outlet (including long section), the overflow mechanism.

3.         Clarification of the emptying times and outlet size.

4.         A Stormwater Management Summary Plan that outlines the obligations for future property owners to stormwater management, including a maintenance plan which outlines the operational and maintenance measures to check and ensure the ongoing effective operation of all systems, such as: inspection frequency; cleanout procedures; descriptions and diagrams of how the installed systems operate; details of the life of assets and replacement requirements. 

All work required by this condition must be undertaken and maintained in accordance with the approved stormwater management report and design.

Advice:

·                Once the stormwater management report and design has been approved the Council will issue a condition endorsement (see general advice on how to obtain condition endorsement).

Reason for condition

To ensure the development’s stormwater system takes into account limited receiving capacity of Council’s infrastructure.

ENG 3a

The parking module (parking spaces and manoeuvring area) must be designed and constructed in accordance with Australian Standard AS/NZS2890.1:2004 (including the requirement for vehicle safety barriers where required), or a Council approved alternate design certified by a suitably qualified engineer to provide a safe and efficient access, and enable safe, easy and efficient use.

Advice: It is advised that designers consider the detailed design of the access and parking module prior to finalising the Finished Floor Level (FFL) of the parking spaces (especially if located within a garage incorporated into the dwelling), as failure to do so may result in difficulty complying with this condition.

Reason for condition

To ensure the safety of users of the access and parking module, and compliance with the relevant Australian Standard.

ENG 4

The parking module (car parking spaces and manoeuvring area) approved by this permit must be constructed to a sealed standard (spray seal, asphalt, concrete, pavers or equivalent Council approved) and surface drained to the Council's stormwater infrastructure prior to the first occupation. 

Reason for condition

To ensure the safety of users of the access driveway and parking module, and that it does not detract from the amenity of users, adjoining occupiers or the environment by preventing dust, mud and sediment transport.

ENG 1

The cost of repair of any damage to the Council's infrastructure resulting from the implementation of this permit, must be met by the owners within 30 days of the completion of the development or as otherwise determined by the Council.

A photographic record of the Council's infrastructure adjacent to the subject site must be provided to the Council prior to any commencement of works. 

A photographic record of the Council’s infrastructure (e.g. existing property service connection points, roads, buildings, stormwater, footpaths, driveway crossovers and nature strips, including if any, pre-existing damage) will be relied upon to establish the extent of damage caused to the Council’s infrastructure during construction. In the event that the owner/developer fails to provide to the Council a photographic record of the Council’s infrastructure, then any damage to the Council's infrastructure found on completion of works will be deemed to be the responsibility of the owner.

Reason for condition

10.3    Deputy Lord Mayor Burnet - Significant Trees on Private Land

Question:    If a street tree is on private land and deemed as significant, and the allotted area is then developed into a sub-division consisting of private and public land, could the Director advise if there is any impost on the developer?

Answer:       The Director advised that it would depend if the tree was declared a significant tree under the relevant planning scheme.  If it was declared a significant tree under the planning scheme then removing the tree would require prior Council consent and public notification.  If the tree was not formally recognised under the planning scheme then there may not be any impost for the developer to retain it.
