TABLE OF CONTENTS - Waratah-Wynyard Council

Planning Authority
The subdivision proposes four (4) stages. Stage one (1) to create 5 lots (1, 2, 3, 39 & 40)
plus lot 42 leaving a lot with a temporary turning circle within the road reserve and a
portion of lot 38. Stage two (2) to create 10 lots (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 34, 35, 36, 37 & 38) leaving
a balance lot with temporary turning circle. Stage three (3) to create 12 lots (23, 24, 25,
26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33 & 41) plus balance lot with a temporary turning circle. Stage
four (4) to create 14 lots (9 – 22).
The proposal also includes the construction of retaining walls on lots 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 11, 31,
32 and 41 to a maximum of 1m in height to allow site grading on the lots and
construction of 2m high retaining walls at its highest point along the rear (northern)
boundary of lots 31, 32 and across lot 31 to allow site grading on the lots.
The developer intends to construct housing on all of the lots and has indicated that their
preferences for retaining walls are to construct them of keystone blocks at a distance of
1m inside the lower property boundary. The proposed 1m height limit (excepting parts
within lots 31 and 32) is to minimise earthworks and impact on adjacent lands.
The existing man-made dams on lots 31, 32 and 41 will be control released during
summer months with the base materials being allowed to dry. Any vegetation is to be
removed and the dam is to be filled and compacted in accordance with AS 3798 so as to
ensure a likely ‘M’ site classification.
The open channel is to be re-established with native vegetation to be planted where
earthworks disturb existing vegetation for 5m from the watercourse.
A 6m x 6m x 3m high shed will be erected within the boundaries of Lot 38 for the
purposes of a construction site shed during the life of the subdivision construction and
residential development of Stages 1, 2 and 3. The shed is proposed to be converted into
a double garage as part of the residential development on Lot 38.
