Negotiated Report (Representations made) 132008 176 05 (As Published)

               Councils Senior Environment Officer agrees with the request.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 66c be amended to read as follows:
               66c. A revegetation/rehabilitation plan for the 6 metre setback fronting Banksia Avenue and
               Serenity Close and the Environmental Management and Conservation Zones. The
               revegetation/rehabilitation plan must have regard to the bushfire Site Management Plan
               required by condition 75.


               Existing Condition 66f
               66f. Vegetated screening of any electrical transformers, bin storage areas and the like from the
               road frontage
               Applicant’s Request
               The applicant indicates that services such as electrical transformers require direct and unrestricted
               access from the road reserve and cannot have vegetated screening in front.
               The applicant has requested existing condition 66f be amended and replaced with the following
               amended condition:
               66f. Vegetated screening of any electrical transformers, bin storage areas and the like from the
               road frontage.
               Assessment of Request
               The request is agreed with as electrical transformers need to have unrestricted access to the road
               frontage.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 66f be amended to read as follows:
               66f. Vegetated screening of any electrical transformers, bin storage areas and the like from the
               road frontage.


               Existing Condition 66g
               66g. Provision of 1 street tree (Lophostemon confertus) centrally located between each existing
               street tree located within Serenity Close road reserve.
               Applicant’s Request
               The applicant submits that street trees of an appropriate density and spacing already exist along
               Serenity Close. These trees will be further complimented by the 6m vegetated setback to be
               provided along the frontage. There is no need or requirement under the planning scheme for
               more street trees.
               The applicant has requested existing condition 66g be deleted.
               Assessment of Request
               Councils Senior Environment Officer disagrees with applicants request. Whilst street trees exist
               within the road reserve the additional street tree planting is considered reasonable to further the
               soften the scale of the built form and create a landscaped streetscape especially with works
               proposed in the road reserve.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 66g remain unchanged.
