The applicable rate is assessed at $1,255.00 per EP for water supply, and $1,361.00 per EP for sewerage. The total amount of contribution is calculated as follows:

Water: $1,255.00 / EP x (40 x 14.152) = $710,430.40 Sewerage: $1,361.00 / EP x (40 x 14.152) = $770,434.88 The contribution applicable per stage of this development is outlined below: Stage 4 – Proposed Lots 10 – 20 and 68 – 70 (14 Lots – 5.9615ha) Water: $1,255.00 / EP x (40 x 5.9615) = $299,267.30 Sewerage: $1,361.00 / EP x (40 x 5.9615) = $324,544.06 Stage 5 – Proposed Lots 21 – 24 and 71 – 73 (7 Lots – 2.8102ha) Water: $1,255.00 / EP x (40 x 2.8102) = $141,072.04 Sewerage: $1,361.00 / EP x (40 x 2.8102) = $152,987.28

Stage 6 – Proposed Lots 25 – 27 and 74 (4 lots – 1.3129ha) Water: $1,255.00 / EP x (40 x 1.3129) = $65,907.58 Sewerage: $1,361.00 / EP x (40 x 1.3129) = $71,474.28 Stage 7 – Proposed Lots 28 – 37 and 55 – 61 (17 Lots – 4.0674ha) Water: $1,255.00 / EP x (40 x 4.0674) = $204,183.48 Sewerage: $1,361.00 / EP x (40 x 4.0674) = $221,429.25 Timing: Prior to the release of Survey Plan/s for each respective stage.

13. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – EASEMENTS

Provide a 4.0 metre wide easement to contain all water supply and sewerage infrastructure required to services the development. Where possible, the sewerage infrastructure must run parallel to the lot boundary and be offset within the lot by 2.0 metres. Provide a 4.0 metre wide easement to contain all stormwater infrastructure required to adequately drain the site, including overland flow paths. All easements required to comply with this condition must be free of cost and compensation to the Council. Timing: Prior to the release of Survey Plan/s.

14. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – PROVISION OF ELECTRICITY

Provide underground electricity to each additional allotment within this development.


Guideline: Council will not endorse or release the Survey Plans for this development until all relevant requirements of CP1.27.4 of the Capricorn Municipal Development Guidelines are met and a copy of Ergon Energy’s Certificate of Acceptance has been received.


15. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – PROVISION OF TELECOMMUNICATIONS Provide underground telecommunication services to all additional allotments within this development. Timing: Prior to the release of Survey Plan/s.

16. DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS – STREET TREES

Provide a minimum of one (1) additional street tree per lot to all road frontages of this development. The actual locations of these trees shall be determined during Operational Works, but shall be located such to avoid encroachment on any works or services within the road reserves fronting, or proposed within this development. Timing: Prior to the release of Survey Plan/s.

17. RECONFIGURING A LOT – OPEN SPACE CONTRIBUTION

Pay a contribution towards the provision of open space (i.e. public garden or recreation space) within the local area at the rate current at the time of payment. The current applicable rate is $3,180.00 per additional allotment. A credit has been given to the existing allotment and accordingly the total amount of open space contribution payable is currently calculated at $130,380.00. This contribution may be paid in stages, at the following rates: Stage 4 – Proposed Lots 10 – 20 and 68 – 70 (14 Lots) $3,180.00 / lot x 14 – 1 (credit) = $41,340.00 Stage 5 – Proposed Lots 21 – 24 and 71 – 73 (7 Lots) $3,180.00 / lot x 7 = $22,260.00 Stage 6 – Proposed Lots 25 – 27 and 74 (4 lots) $3,180.00 / lot x 4 = $12,720.00 Stage 7 – Proposed Lots 28 – 37 and 55 – 61 (17 Lots) $3,180.00 / lot x 17 = $54,060.00 Timing: Prior to the release of Survey Plan/s for each respective stage.

1.3 – TP012/08E – Alan & Terre Mann – 108 Baker Street, Emerald – Material Change of Use – Recreation to Residential Precinct Application No: TP012/08E Applicant: Alan James & Terre Annette Mann Owner: H.A & R.A. Macdonald (previously A.J. & T.A. Mann) Site Address: 108 Baker Street, Emerald Real Property Description: Lot 2 on SP175010 Area of Land: 4,610m2 Current Use of Land: Dwelling and Carport Applicant’s Address: PO Box 697, Emerald QLD 4720 Planning Scheme: Emerald Shire Planning Scheme (2007) Zone: Town Zone: Recreation Precinct


Proposal: Material Change of Use to establish a Residential Land Use in the Town Zone: Recreation Precinct

Approval Type: Preliminary Approval Development Type: Material Change of Use Level of Assessment: Impact Referral Agencies: Department of Main Roads Submissions: Nil Attachments: Locality Plan Site Plan

Resolution: Cr Brimblecombe moved and Cr Hayes seconded ‘That the applicant, Alan James & Terre Annette Mann, be advised that the development application for Preliminary Approval of a Material Change of Use to establish a Residential Land Use in the Town Zone: Recreation Precinct on land at 108 Baker Street, Emerald described as Lot 2 on SP175010 is refused on the following grounds: Emerald Shire Council Planning Scheme (2007) 1. The proposal conflicts with the Desired Environmental Outcomes sought for Emerald Shire,

specifically: a. 3.1.1 (4) - Social Element (a)

“The Shire’s residential communities are preserved in character, well serviced, enjoy high levels of safety and amenity, able to accommodate growth and offer a range of housing options to meet the diverse needs of all members of the Shire and Central Highlands”. The proposal seeks to expand residential uses within land contained in the Town Zone: Recreation Precinct and is considered to create an unnecessarily impact upon the amenity of the neighbouring residential area, and reduce the effectiveness of the vegetated buffer and existing natural vegetation on the site from mitigating amenity impacts generated from the industrial area to the north, and rural area to the west. This is considered to conflict with Desired Environmental Outcome Social Element (a) and will compromise the desired achievement of Desired Environmental Outcome Social Element (a); and

b. 3.1.1 (4) - Economic Element (e)

“The park and recreation opportunities for residents and visitors of the Shire have been enhanced and expanded”. The proposal seeks to expand residential uses within land contained in the Town Zone: Recreation Precinct, thereby reducing the available land for park and recreation opportunities associated with open space. The land, while not publicly owned, contains valuable natural vegetation that serves as passive open space and assists in mitigating amenity impacts generated from the industrial area to the north, and rural area to the west upon nearby residential development in Baker Street and Kidd Street, Emerald. The removal of this vegetation is considered to conflict with Desired Environmental Outcome Social Element (a) and will compromise the desired achievement of Desired Environmental Outcome Social Element (e).

2. The proposal has failed to identify a “need” or “overriding need” for the development that would

justify an amendment to the zoning and land use of the subject property and sufficient land is considered to be available within the Town Zone: Residential Precinct to locate residential uses such as that proposed without any potential adverse impacts upon residential amenity, or reduction in open space and recreation areas.

4. The proposal does not adequately respond to known site constraints, specifically those related to

flooding. The site is known to have been subject to inundation in both 2008 and 2010/2011, and the creation of new residential development in this area is not supported given the availability of both correctly zoned and flood free lands.
