Development Outcomes

 

 

Scenic amenity
O10 The scenic amenity and vegetated character of the Shire
and its watercourses, drainage lines, sloping land and ridgelines
is retained;

AND

O71 Vegetation which makes a positive contribution to the
streetscape or major road network is retained

§10.1 and $11.1 Vegetation is retained and
replanting is undertaken-

a) within 30m of prominent ridgelines and
hillslopes;

b) in gullies;

c) along watercourses and drainage lines; and
d) within 10m of road reserves.

The proposed development will not be located within
proximity to a watercourse.

The subject site does not include steep slopes and is i
not affected by the landslide overlay.

 

Habitat trees
Q12 Habitat trees (including dead trees) and recruitment habitat
trees are protected for native fauna habitat, where practicable.

Lake Macdonald
013 Vegetation within 400m of the full ponded water within
Lake Macdonald is retained.

 

$12.1 No clearing of koala habitat trees greater
than 4m in height or with a diameter greater than
100mm at 1.3m above the ground”;

AND

$12.2 No clearing of other habitat trees or
recruitment habitat trees.

No solution provided.

 

(steep slopes

014 Vegetation an steep slopes is retained and managed to
avoid erosion and landslide and to protect natural resources and
values.

Engineering and site works

 

The Koala (Phascolarctos cinereus) has been recorded
from suitable habitat in the wider locality, including
the northern sections of Noosa National Park.
Targeted surveys for this species {including
spotlighting, call-playback and scat searches) failed
to detect signs of the Koala at the Subject Site.
Habitat assessment (combined with vegetation
survey results) indicates that Koala forage tree
species do not occur at the site. It is therefore
unlikely that the Subject Site provides suitable habitat
for Koalas, and the proposed development of the |
northern area of the site will not result in any
significant impacts on this species.

Not applicable. .
