Same with above-ground OSD (despite many of these already being present around other streets nearby, but they were build 5+ years before). The only option Cumberland allowed for the Duplexes was in-concrete, under the driveways, which also went into the garage. There was a lot of back and forth between Metricon and Cumberland to get it right. I remember when approaching Kurmond Homes, and they flat out said no because they didn't want to deal with Cumberland and their OSD requirements at the time. Probably different now? Mind you, the $70-$90K was for both sides (giving a range because every land is different)... but yes, still pricey. Cumberland is pretty strict, not like the other councils. Yes, it would be cheaper if I could get someone else to do the hydraulics and stormwater detention design and implementation... but I'm with a Project Builder (Metricon), and they don't allow outsiders coming onto site while construction takes place. I've heard the Hills Shire council is strict too. just saying that I used to be the NSW GM of Metricon in charge of building the duplexes, probably built around 300 or so, and those in charge now are morons. Just saying. I dont care what anyone says but you shouldnt be charged that much for OSD tanks, They clearly have no idea as to how to construct them cost effectively. Anyway, that's my Sunday rant These are the pre-made concrete tanks that can go under the driveway.
