             Proposed Outcome                       (a) The subject property is characterised by a very large road
                                                        reserve (approximately 23.5m in width) between the road
                                                        frontage boundary and the paved road (refer to Figure 1).
                                                        Furthermore, the road reserve is heavily treed which largely
                                                        shields the front of the property when viewed from the road
                                                        (refer to Figure 2 and 3). Consequently, the amenity
                                                        impacts of the proposal, as viewed from the road, will be
                                                        minimal.
                                                        In addition, the proposed location has been chosen
                                                        because it is an established level site which is the logical
                                                        house site, given that the vast majority of the rest of the
                                                        property is mapped as being potentially a Landslide Hazard
                                                        area (refer to Figure 4). Consequently, the proposed house
                                                        site will result in minimal earthworks which will in turn
                                                        minimise amenity impacts on the rural landscape.

                                                    (b) The proposed house site is well clear of any mapped
                                                        Biodiversity Overlay, Riparian Buffer Overlay and mapped
                                                        waterway and complies with the Planning Scheme in
                                                        relation to ecologically important areas, watercourses, and
                                                        wetlands.

                                                    (c) The adjoining properties to the north-west and south-east
                                                        are characterised by residential uses, and the house site is
                                                        approximately 180m away from the rear boundary of the
                                                        large rural zoned property to the north. Therefore there is
                                                        minimal risk of the use of chemicals or air pollutants from
                                                        farmland impacting on the house site.

                                                    (d) The house site is more than 160m from any rural zoned
                                                        property over 4 hectares in area mapped as ‘Agricultural
                                                        Land Conservation Area’ and so is highly unlikely to be
                                                        impacted upon by adjoining rural uses.

             CONCLUSION                        Performance Outcomes are met.
