The vegetation west of the site within Heritage Park is described as regional ecosystem 12.3.5 –
Melaleuca quinquenervia open forest on seasonally inundated lowland coastal swamps, this

high bushfire hazard area. (A site inspection by Council’s Senior Environment Officer confirmed
this to be accurate).
