f. Rehabilitation of disturbed areas within the identified buffer areas.
61. All Class 1, Class 2 and Class 3 pest plants declared under the Land Protection (Pest and
Stock Route Management) Act 2002 are to be controlled on the site prior to Council
endorsement of the plan of survey. In this context “controlled” shall mean, for class 1 and 2
pests, completely eradicated. For class 3 pests it shall mean removal of the plants where
they threaten environmentally significant areas of the site such as riparian zones and areas
of natural vegetation.
Where class 3 plants are removed as a result of this condition and there is not sufficient
natural regeneration of native species, the areas shall be replanted with endemic native
species so that a sustainable natural ecosystem is restored.
Council’s Conservation Management Supervisor will not inspect the site until 30 days after
the weed treatment and replanting is complete.
62. A Vegetation Protection Area shall be provided in the northeast corner of the property as
indicated on drawing the approved plan and as recommended by the Ecological Survey

65. Where retained trees are located in areas proposed to be filled on the site (or are located on
neighbouring allotments to the area to be filled), there will be a need to prevent fill material
from being placed on the tree’s root system. To this end, the design of any filling works will
need to incorporate terracing around the tree or a similar means of ensuring that the natural
ground level around the trees remains generally the same as existing. These measures shall
clearly be shown on the plans submitted for Operational Works approval and any drainage
required to drain these areas shall also be shown on the plans.
66. An environmental maintenance period of 12 months shall commence after the Landscaped
area has been re-vegetated and all declared & environmental weeds have been removed
from the entire property. Council’s appointed Environmental Officer shall sign the

The purpose of the Waste Management Plan is to facilitate the segregation of waste for
the effective reuse and recycling of such materials. Additionally Council rewards those who
segregate waste by significantly reducing disposal fees at the landfill some items are free.
Higher gate fees are charged for loads of mixed waste.
81. Noise emission from mechanical equipment (air conditioners, refrigeration equipment or pool
pumps, etc.) shall comply with the following requirements:
The equipment shall be installed and located in a manner that prevents excessive noise in
accordance with Council’s Local Law No. 12 - Control of Nuisances. Infringement Notices
(on-the-spot fines) may apply for offences.
A person must not use equipment on any day if it makes or causes noise to be made –
From 10pm to 7am: More than the lower of either –
a. 40 dB(A)
Page 12 of 17
Document Set ID: 22829529
Version: 4, Version Date: 29/02/2024
Page 13
b. 3 dB(A) above the background noise level
c. No audible noise for pool pumps apply during these hours.
From 7am to 7pm: More than the lower of either –
d. 50 dB(A)
e. dB(A) above the background noise level
From 7pm to 10pm: More than 3 dB(A) above the background noise level.
82. Written certification is required from a suitably qualified person confirming that the noise
levels from all mechanical equipment comply with the above condition when measured at
either the residential boundary or outside the most exposed part of an affected building,
whichever is the closest to the equipment.
The assessment and certification is required immediately after installation of the equipment
and prior to any occupation of the building, and in a format approved by Council. This
assessment must take into account noise from any other fixed equipment on the property
e.g. swimming pool pump, heating/cooling equipment, etc that may increase the overall noise
level emitted.
Advice: It is highly recommended that the person you engage to certify the installation is
involved at the plan development stage so they can recommend where this equipment is
best located. They can also advise about noise enclosures and can make other suggestions
to avoid noise problems. It is a lot more costly to try and deal with noise problems after
everything is built.
Additional Conditions 1 July 2019

part of the Building Approval process.
6. The requirements of the Environmental Protection Amendment Regulation (No. 2) 1999 and
Local Law No. 12, prevents a builder or building contractor carrying out building work on a

the activity does not harm Aboriginal cultural heritage”. It is an offence to fail to comply with
the duty of care. Substantial monetary penalties may apply to individuals or corporations
breaching this duty of care. Injunctions may also be issued by the Land and Resources
Tribunal, and the Minister administering the Act can also issue stop orders for an activity
that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or the cultural heritage value
of Aboriginal cultural heritage.
