Representation Summary:

The policy for this development was originally SP02, which states that a substantial urban drainage system must be included on the site, to stop excess water draining off the site onto the road. This has been omitted from the new SP03. This causes me a great deal of concern, as my property is directly opposite this site. To make matters worse, the attenuation pond is to be placed directly opposite our driveway, on the lowest point of the road, overflowing into a ditch that is blocked, so the water has nowhere to go.

Change suggested by respondent:

A substantial drainage system must be included in SPO3 to prevent excess water running off the site onto the road.
We are on the lowest part of the road, opposite the site, and our property needs to be protected.
The attenuation pond needs to be moved to the corner of the site where there are no properties opposite.
The pipe at the corner end of the ditch needs to be unblocked. This pipe is currently on private land.
