The previous figure 8.2 also illustrates the exi~ting vegetation buffer aligning the southern
lot boundary which will screen the facility.from the closest residential dwellings situated
south west of the facility. Again the existing vegetation in association with the adequate
setbacks of over 240 m from the closest dwellings will provide a degree of screening and
assist in minimising the visual dominance of the structure when viewed from the.closest
residential dwellings.


Figure 8.5 illustrates a view looking west demonstrating the buffer of mature vegetation on
the southern property boundary which will s         parate the proposed facility from the closest
residential dwellings~ When viewed from the nearby residential dwellings it is anticipated
                                                                                                           I    I

that only the top of the facility will be. visible. Furthermore these views are not anticipated
to be visually pbtrusive or detract from the natu~allandscape and character of the area.

In conjunction with the natural v~getation screening, the proposed location also provides
an  adequate separation distance and setbacks from community sensitive locations which
will also assist in mir;Jimisi’rig the’visual obtrusiveness of the facility as follows:
      . The    proposed facility is’ apprqpriately sited on the periphery of the township
        (approximately 1 km fn;>m Boreen Point Vi,lIage);
      .   The proposed location is setback more than 240 m from the closest and only three
          (3)residential dwellings ’within a 500 m radius; and.
      .   Setback from li public open space areas including but not limited to;
             o   More than 200 m"from the edg.e. f lake Cootharaba
