4.3     Assessment of Vegetation Communities
Hazard scores for the vegetation communities associated with each BHU have been taken from the
SPP1/03 Guideline – Mitigating the Adverse Impacts of Flood, Bushfire and Landslide, Appendix 3
Table A3.1 – Hazard Scores and Associated Fire Behaviours for Various Vegetation Communities. In
addition to assessing the existing conditions within each BHU, an assessment has been made of the
likely future conditions within each BHU, following the completion of development works (as discussed
in Section 1.2, above). In particular, the future conditions within BHUs 1, 2, and 3, post development,
are assumed to be mown turf, paved roadways and footpaths, garden beds and scattered landscape
vegetation.

Below is a description of vegetation communities within each BHU with the relevant Hazard Scores
for the existing site conditions and future conditions, following development, provided in Table 1,
below.
