8 4.0 EXISTING DESCRIPTION OF THE SUBJECT LAND 4.1 History of the Subject Land The subject land forms part of Development Lease No. 2 granted to Stockland Kawana Waters Pty Ltd (formerly Lensworth Kawana Waters Pty Ltd), under the provisions of the Land Act As a result of approvals given by the Department of Natural Resources and Mines to the creation of Master Plans under the provisions of Development Control Plan 1 Kawana Waters, to Detailed Planning Area 1, Detailed Planning Area 9, Birtinya Neighbourhood and Regatta North Neighbourhood, followed by Design Plan Approvals granted by the same Department under the provisions of the Land Act 1994, the constructed lake is being surrendered out of Development Lease No. 2 in stages to the Council in fee simple in trust and in accordance with the Nomination of Trust (refer Appendix K) under the provisions of the Land Act In accordance with the intent of planning approvals under the Master Planned Community Development Process expressed in Development Control Plan 1 - Kawana Waters, and normal expectations of landowners abutting a waterway, both Council and Stockland have prepared a Management Plan to control the use of the lake reserve. While the land is zoned Residential A and Special Development under the Planning Scheme for Caloundra City, the intent for the land is shown on the various maps attached to Development Control Plan 1 Kawana Waters, as well as the maps attached to the approved Structure Plan for Kawana Waters. 4.2 Local Area Description The Lake Kawana applies to all the land comprising Lake Kawana (Refer to the Locality Plan in the appendices) at any point in time and is held for sport and recreation purposes under a Nomination of Trust. The lake reserve is an artificial lake, constructed in accordance with the relevant planning approvals granted by the Department of Natural Resources & Mines, the Environmental Protection Agency and the Sunshine Coast Regional Council. The land abutting the reserve is intended to be developed for urban, commercial, park and community purposes in accordance with DCP1 - Kawana Waters. The land adjacent to the northern and north eastern area of the lake reserve (known as Eastbank ) is progressively being developed for the purposes envisaged under DCP - 1. The north western side of the reserve (known as the Kawana Business Village ) has been developed in accordance with those uses envisaged under DCP 1 for Detailed Planning Area 9. The south eastern area of the main lake has been developed as residential in accordance with the master plans relevant to Eastbank and the Regatta North Neighbourhood. The western side of the main lake is anticipated as being developed as a Town Centre, while the south western area is anticipated as being developed for residential purposes in accordance with the intent of DCP-1 for this land. The lake reserve is intended for the use of the community, generally, and also for specific, non-motorised, aquatic events, subject to the permitted uses and constraints outlined in this Management Plan.

9 4.3 Detailed Site Description The lake is currently defined as the area contained within the revetment walls upstream of the outlet weir structure abutting Pangali Canal and the head of the lake near Main Drive. The lake has several components including the main 40 hectare rowing/kayaking course and a 10 hectare connecting waterway described as the Entry Lake, that extends east to the Nicklin Way. The lake includes a 23 hectare waterway to the west of the rowing/kayak course, which will be described as the western loop. The lake is a non-tidal water body although from time to time the downstream end of the lake may be inundated by tides which are higher than the Mean High Water Spring tide (MHWS) of 0.63m AHD. The nominal water level of the lake is RL 0.65m AHD. The lake s minimum bed level is RL -4.00m AHD. The minimum lake depth, excluding edge batters, is 4.65m. The level of the top of the revetments walls is typically RL 1.20m AHD. The revetments provide scour protection against wave action generated by wind and general lake activities. 4.4 Existing Infrastructure The majority of the lake reserve boundaries are contained within the concrete and rock layered revetment walls, except for beach areas that extend across the park and lake boundaries. A 65m wide outlet weir, located at the southern end of the lake, forms a physical boundary to Pangali Canal. The crest of the weir is set at MHWST and creates a tidal barrier to the lake. As such, legal navigable access for any craft or vessel is not permitted across the weir. (Five timber market piles located immediately upstream of the weir alert users of their proximity to the weir). Canoe launching facilities may be provided near either side of the weir connected by a portage to facilitate access, subject to satisfactory engineering advice. Submerged stormwater outlets, discharging stormwater runoff from the adjoining residential/commercial catchment areas, are located around the perimeter of the lake and extend below the revetment into the waterway. Combined road/pedestrian bridges cross the waterway at both Lake Kawana Boulevard and Regatta Boulevard however, the bridges and their support structures do not form part of the Reserve. (The bridges are separately contained within volumetric plans SP and SP respectively and are classified as road.) Whilst there is no height limitation for vessels using the lake, the bridges across the lake will create a height restriction. The clearance between the nominal lake water level and the centre span of the bridges is approximately 4m. A 1200 dia. salinity rising main, discharge pipe and concrete diffuser, which conveys seawater from Mooloolah River to the northern head of the lake, is constructed under a support jetty structure. (The injection of seawater is critical for maintaining water quality at acceptable levels within the lake). The upstream salinity pumping station, ancillary equipment and intake jetty, which are located in the Mooloolah River, also form an essential part of the lake infrastructure. Four timber recreation/spectator viewing platforms are positioned along the eastern edge of the lake. A three storey steel framed structure, known as the finish line tower, is located at the northern end of the lake on the eastern foreshore. A small spectator viewing platform is also located on the western side of the lake in line with the finish line tower. The lake is also set out as a rowing course. The rowing lanes are defined by floating buoys and submerged cables that are fixed to the bollards in the park adjacent to the Q:\Development\Projects\Oceanside\Masterplanning\\LMP Document\Updated LMP for Council Endorsement \Lake Kawana Management Plan Vol 1 Revised 9 March 2015.docx Page 9 of 20

10 existing revetment walls at the northern end of the lake and to beach side concrete pathways at the southern end of the lake. Two single lane concrete boat ramps are constructed on the eastern foreshore, one located at the northern end of the lake and the other at the southern end. An intake pipeline that services the cooling towers of the Lake Kawana Community Centre is located along the edge of the lake immediately south of the community centre. The concrete outlet weir functions as: 1) a major flood control structure for the Kawana Waters development south of Main Drive: and 2) a navigable barrier to the tidal waters of Pangali Canal. The weir comprises large concrete approach walls and concrete base aprons and is heavily protected with submerged rock scour protection both upstream and downstream of the weir. Defined public access (i.e. beaches) and maintenance access (via adjacent concrete pathways) are available along the perimeter of the lake. Typically public access areas are, or, will be created as park abutting the Reserve, however some exceptions apply namely, lot 200 on SP , lot 522 on SP and proposed lot 3 on SP (Entrance Island). 4.5 Existing Interests There are no existing interests recorded over the lake, other than for road transport and public utility services infrastructure. 4.6 Native Title Status The tenure history reveals a previous grant of exclusive possession which covers the proposed dealing area. Development Lease number DL 06/2, Title reference A development lease under the Crown Land development Act 1959 or the Land Act 1962 that permits the lessee to use the land or waters covered by the lease solely or primarily for manufacturing, business and residential purposes.

11 5.0 USE OF THE SUBJECT LAND (LAKE) a) Intent for use of subject land Lake Kawana has been master planned and approved by Sunshine Coast Regional Council and the State as a focal feature of the Kawana Waters Master Planned Community Development area. The lake and associated rowing course are identified on Structure Plan 1 and Structure Plan 2 of the Kawana Waters Structure Plan as part of the Open Space and Community Facilities development criteria. (Refer Structure Plans in the appendices). The lake reserve is intended to be used by the community in a responsible way for their recreational enjoyment, with minimal adverse impact upon the amenity of those dwellings in close proximity to the lake. It is accepted that on event days there may be cheering, singing and applause. This is considered to be reasonable behaviour for local, regional and national events and such is in accordance with the intent of the lake. For that reason, a list of permitted and prohibited uses shall apply. b) Event Management Council as a venue manager has full responsibility for the management of uses and activities on the lake - under an interim agreement between Stockland Kawana Waters Pty Ltd and Sunshine Coast Council. This agreement will expire when the lake is transferred to Council (in fee simple in trust) and the is adopted by Council. (The permitted user groups and events are being appropriately scheduled and managed to avoid conflict between sporting events and the training sessions of sporting clubs). c) Water Quality From time to time, water quality in the lake system may be deleteriously affected by stormwater run-off and/or water pumped in from the Mooloolah River (via the water quality exchange system). Swimming or other primary contact activity during these times is not recommended by Council. To address this issue, signage will be erected at public access points to the lake, to advise potential users of the lake system, its design function and potential risks associated with primary contact during the aforementioned events. Such signage is to be implemented at suitable locations including public access points, roads and parks fronting the lake system. Events and recreational use that incorporate primary contact will not be permitted in circumstances where the water quality has the potential to be deleteriously affected. d) General Lake Use Lake use is generally open to the general public or sports based user groups providing the use is a permitted use (see Section 5.1). Use of the lake (including the rowing course) is open to the public, providing that the lake and/or rowing Q:\Development\Projects\Oceanside\Masterplanning\\LMP Document\Updated LMP for Council Endorsement \Lake Kawana Management Plan Vol 1 Revised 9 March 2015.docx Page 11 of 20
