                                                    Figure 5 – Landscaping Calculations

               The total landscaping area for the proposed development is 477.46m2 (49%) of which the hard
               landscaping makes up 158.93m2 (16% of the site) and soft landscaping making up 318.53m2 (33%
               of site or 67% of total landscaping). Thus, the proposal meets the outcomes of Acceptable
               Outcome AO10.2 of the Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code.
               The requirement to undertake an Operational Works approval to authorise the work was
               considered unreasonable given the current operational works (OPW23/0013) never approved
               landscaping plans. As such, it is recommended that the landscaping works be undertaken as part
               of the minor change approval.


               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 29 be amended to read as follows:
               29.    The development site must be landscaped generally in accordance with the concept plan
                      prepared by Ausmar (Issue B Landscaping, prepared by Ausmar). The works must be
                      undertaken in accordance with an Operational Works approval approved Landscape Plan,
                      Landscape Supplementary (Planting) Plan and the Landscape Species List and the
                      Noosa Plan PSP2 – Landscaping for this specific area and must include in particular:
                      a.      Front fences or walls must be set back an average of 1 metre and articulated, stepping
                              the design at a maximum of 5m intervals;
                      b.      An average 1 metre wide landscaping strip along the both road frontages exclusive of

                      c.      Screening landscaping for side boundaries must include screening plants which grow
                              to a minimum height of 4m at maturity and provided at maximum 1.5m centres. Palms
                              are not permitted to be utilised for screening;
                      d.      Provision of 4 x 45 litre street trees (2 on each frontage);
                      e.      Appropriate species that meet PSP2 – Landscaping policy or endemic to Noosa;
