Volume Three Appendix 7 Information on servicing Water Supply The developer must make provision for the supply of water adequate for reasonably expected domestic, stock, commercial or industrial consumption. All urban subdivisions are required to be connected to the reticulated water supply system where connection is available. The provision of reticulated water supply is addressed by Rules 24.1.1 to 24.1.3. Where the allotments are proposed to be supplied through other means, the developer must provide details of proposed water supply to serve all allotments, including balance land. Both the quantity and quality of the supply should be addressed. The provision of water supply in rural areas is also addressed by Rule 24.1.14. Sewerage The developer must provide means for the satisfactory disposal of sewage wastes from all allotments and from all buildings where such wastes are to be generated. Unless unreasonable in the circumstances, the sewerage system must be designed to serve the expected load for any further subdivision or development from the upstream catchment area. All urban subdivisions are required to be connected to the reticulated services where they exist. The provision of reticulated sewerage is addressed by Rules 24.1.1 to 24.1.3. Where the allotments are proposed to be serviced by on-site methods, the allotments are to be subject to investigation to confirm that on-site management is the best practicable option, and that sewage will be effectively treated and contained on-site. The investigation may require an on-site assessment of the site conditions and constraints, particularly soil properties. The results of any on-site assessment must be documented in a Site and Soil Evaluation Report prepared by a professional who has established credentials with the Council. Any subdivision of land in the Coastal Living Zone or any subdivision of land below controlled activity allotment sizes in the Coastal Environment Zone must involve an on-site assessment of the site conditions and constraints. The sizing of the land application area must be based on the loading from at least a four bedroom dwelling (occupied full time). Parts of the proposed allotment appropriate to be used as land application areas should be shown on the Scheme Plan. Stormwater Drainage The developer must provide a satisfactory system for the collection, treatment and disposal of stormwater from all allotments, roads, accessways and private roads. The system must provide for the collection and control of all stormwater within the land being subdivided together with the potential drainage for the catchment upstream of the subdivision. All urban subdivisions are required to be connected to the reticulated services where they exist. The provision of reticulated stormwater is addressed by Rules 24.1.1 to 24.1.3. Where the allotments are proposed to be serviced by either new stormwater infrastructure or through on-site methods, the developer must demonstrate that the method of management will effectively service the proposed subdivision.
