BIODIVERSITY OVERLAY CODE
Performance Criteria and Acceptable Solutions

RFORMANCE CRITERIA

  

enhance existing vegetation;

b) removal of all species likely to displace native
flora species or degrade fauna habitat;

c) replanting and rehabilitating13 degraded
habitat; and

d) replacing any vegetation removed with suitable
replacement vegetation of local origin.

   

ACCEPTABLE SOLUTION:

utilising suitable plant species identified in

PSP3 — Landscaping Plants and Guidelines;

c) replicating adjacent remnant habitats,

_ including understorey vegetation;

d) creating or enhancing linkages between
existing habitats;

€) avoiding the use of Undesirable Plant Species
listed in Table 9.1 of PSP3 Landscaping
Plants and Guidelines; and

f) _ planting riparian zones to filter stormwater run-
off and provide for wildlife habitat.

AND
$18.2 Vegetation removed is replaced with the

equivalent number of trees or plants of local origin
to a minimum pot size of 100 litres.

COMMENT:

The buffer zone will be revegetated appropriate species to protect
the wet heath area to the west of the site. The stormwater
management plan will be incorporating vegetated swales etc to
filter run-off from the site and provide for wildlife habitat. Refer to
Appendix J ~ Stormwater Management Plan and Appendix G —
Landscape Master Plan

There is significant replanting of new species throughout the site
which are considered appropriate for the area and suitable for the
proposed activities on the site.

 

 

Fire management

019 Fire management measures are adopted

based on ecological principles, which—

a) maintain and enhance biodiversity;

b) minimise threat of fire to the natural
environment, life and property; and

¢) provide for effective use and maintenance of
buildings and structures.

 

No solution provided

 

 

The proposed development will incorporate fire management
measures throughout the site by planting fire retardant species
between vegetated areas and the buildings. The development will
also incorporate appropriate materials on buildings which are
considered to be threatened by bushfire. The design and layout of
the buildings throughout the development have been designed to
ensure fire is mitigated appropriately. Refer to Appendix Q —
Compliance Assessment Report
