Parkland Restoration and Dedication
5.   Upon registration of the Plan of Survey, the relevant land required to be dedicated for park
     purposes, as indicated on drawing M2358-03 Sheet 1 of 1 (and as may be amended by
     findings from other conditions of this Permit), shall be dedicated to the Crown (with Council as
     Trustee) for park and environmental protection purposes pursuant to the Land Act 1994 at no
     cost to Council.
6.   An Ecological Restoration Plan for the Parkland shall be prepared in accordance with the
     requirements of Council’s Planning Scheme Policy PSP18 Ecological Assessment Guidelines
     and submitted for Council approval prior to sealing the plans of survey. The park areas of the
     site shall be revegetated and rehabilitated in accordance with the Council approved Ecological
     Restoration Plan.
7.   The Ecological Restoration Plan shall be prepared by a qualified and experienced Ecologist, to
     the reasonable satisfaction of the Council. The Ecological Restoration Plan (ERP) shall be
     applicable to the portion of the site to be dedicated to Council as Parkland and address
     environmental weed removal and control, rehabilitation of existing vegetation communities and
     revegetation strategies for degraded areas of the area of the site to be dedicated as parkland.
     It shall identify all the areas of the park that require ecological restoration, specify actions and
     works necessary to result in robust, self-sustaining, viable indigenous plant communities and
     habitat. The ERP shall aim to revegetate the park areas with suitable native species to
     resemble the local endemic ecosystem by removing all noxious and environmental weeds
     from the site and include the planting and maintenance requirements of the Council approved
     Bushfire Management Plan for the site. The ERP shall detail continual maintenance
     requirements for a 1 year period (the maintenance period) to enable the revegetation and
     rehabilitation works to be self-maintaining.           To this extent Council’s Coordinator of
     Environment and Landscaping must be consulted during the preparation of the plan.
8.   The following, inter alia, shall be addressed and included in the Ecological Restoration Plan
     and specifications:
     8.1   document the current status of the areas requiring ecological restoration in terms of
           structure, floristics, missing elements, health, vigour, etc.;

     8.3   site preparation (this may include thinning, grass removal, weed removal and control,
