1.

The rainwater storage tanks must be installed so that there are safe setback distances from property boundaries. 

2.

Where a development will contain more than one residential unit, e.g. a retirement home or village or a multi-unit residential development, a common rainwater storage facility with a volume of 2,000 litres per residential unit can be provided so long as access to operate and maintain the facility is secured via an easement or it is located within an area of ‘common property’.

3.

Separation and/or backflow prevention between potable and non-potable systems will be required in residential situations to ensure that public health is not compromised by cross contamination from the use of non-potable water.

4.

No outdoor taps shall be connected to the potable public water supply.
