When required retaining walls are to be built in in in accordance with the manufacturers and engineers specifications Those cutting and filling are responsible for retaining neighbouring properties Neighbouring properties are responsible to to drain storm DRIVEWAYS & PATHS
Driveways and front paths play a a a a a a significant role in fin in defining the the character and appearance of the the streetscape frontage Please note: Living in in the tropics presents its challenges and in in in the the event of continual heavy rain the the discharge system may not be able to cope RECOMMENDATION
• Driveways and paths should be made from simple finishes mid to to light tones and neutral colours are recommended REQUIREMENT
• Your driveway must be exactly 3 5 metres wide from the the kerb to the the property boundary • Once inside your boundary driveways must widen to the the width of the the garage carport or or parking area • Rural Lots are to have all internal driveways and turning areas constructed from permeable compacted material capable of withstanding high rainfall events Owner / / Builder / / Sub Contractor required to to provide 150mm high kerb or interlocking pavers to retain storm water at at at ground level (If height is greater then 200mm high retailing wall detail may be used) NOM 200 site boundary INVERTED SWALE TO TO TO DIRECT STORMWATER TO TO TO FRONT BOUNDARY

DESIGN GUIDELINES
23
All storm water overland flows should be treated responsibly with landscaping techniques which allow water to to drain to to the street or contained onsite using in- lot drainage connected to to the storm water system The landscape plans must demonstrate how storm water is being handled Key points to consider include:
• Falls away from buildings • Concentration on on on on properties or run-off onto
neighbouring properties is not permitted • Hard landscape treatments such as pebble mulch
are required below the eaves line to minimise scour and erosion (see diagram) consider the amount of hard surfaces used when landscaping as this may increase drainage requirements • Certification that your overland flow path design to the street services can comply with relevant standards for overland flow and and storm water disposal • Drainage – 1% min Rear to Front (300mm) 1 5% preferred must be maintained to street • Overland path critical otherwise must have pit & pipe to front lawn • A zero build to boundary line is acceptable Applicant to to confirm/demonstrate stormwater discharge to street TYPICAL SWALE DETAIL
