                        Figure 7: Bushfire separation of amended proposal
All previous bushfire recommendations are still applicable to the revised development layout.
Landscape
The applicant has provided a revised set of concept landscape plans that depict the revised layout.
The plans have included additional areas of remnant vegetation to be retained within the location
of the now removed pavilion 5, as well as incorporated bush pathways and timber decks that wind
through the trees and located existing trees for meditation/relaxation. The revised plans are
considered appropriate at this conceptual stage, with detailed design to be undertaken as part of
a landscape operational works application.
Site Cover and Plot Ratio
The subject site includes an area of 23,447m2 that is zoned Tourist Accommodation. The balance
of the site is zoned Recreation and Open Space Zone (14,608m2).
The Tourist Accommodation zone code requires a maximum site cover of 40% (9,378m2) and a
Plot ratio of 0.65:1 (15,240m2). The Recreation and Open Space Zone requires a maximum site
cover of 10% (1,460m2) whilst the relevant performance outcome prescribes that the gross floor
area of buildings of roofed structures does not exceed 100m2 excluding major sporting clubs,
clubhouse facilities which do not exceed 800m². 3,052m2 of gross floor area is proposed in the
Open Space and Recreation Zone.
