LANDSCAPING PLAN NOTES: 55 LAKE MACDONALD DRIVE

 

LANDSCAPING FOR THE LAKE MACDONALD DRIVE DEVELOPMENT SHALL BE IN ACCORDANCE
WITH THE NOOSA PLAN LANDSCAPING CODE & THE NOOSA PLANNING SCHEME POLICY 3 -
LANDSCAPING PLANTS GUIDELINES.

1. LANDSCAPING AREAS

THE FOLLOWING AREAS SHALL BE LANDSCAPED:

«STREETSCAPE AREA — STREET TREES, GROUNDCOVERS (BY LANDSCAPER) & TURF ON
THE FOOTPATH OF NEW ROADS (BY CONTRACTOR).

«  BIORETENTION BASIN — PLANTING OF MACROPHYTES IN BASIN TO ACHIEVE
STORMWATER QUALITY TREATMENT AS PER THE SWOMP. THE BIORETENTION BASIN 3 IS
150M? (BY LANDSCAPER).

+ ALLOTMENT CONDITIONING HYDROMULCH WITH GRASS SEED (BY CONTRACTOR).

2. PLANTING DETAILS

SPECIES SELECTED 10 BE GENERALLY FAST GROWING, PROVIDE SHADE & COVER, AND ARE
SELECTED TO ACHIEVE OUTCOMES OF EACH AREA.
SPECIES DENSITIES WILL BE AS FOLLOWS:
. STREETSCAPE - TREES A MINIMUM OF ONE TREE PER LOT
(BY LANDSCAPER).
— TURFING OF FOOTPATH (BY CONTRACTOR).

. BIORETENTION SYSTEMS - EIGHT (8) MACROPHYTE PLANTS PER 1M’~ INCLUDING

SWALES, IN FILTER AREA.

— ONE (1) PLANT PER 2M? ON BATTERS TO
STABILISE AREA.

. ALLOTMENTS — TURF BATTERS 0.5M INTO LOTS (BY CONTRACTOR).
. HYDROMULCH — ALLOTMENT FILL AND DISTURBED AREAS. (BY CONTRACTOR).
. ROAD RESERVE - TURF ALL DISTURBED FOOTPATHS & DRAINAGE CHANNELS (AS PER

1225-86 (BY CONTRACTOR).
. PATHWAY — TURF EDGE 0.5M WIDE (BY CONTRACTOR).

3. SITE PREPARATION

+ FINALISE EARTHWORKS & CIVIL WORKS AND ENSURE FOOTPATHS AND LANDSCAPE
AREAS ARE GRADED, TOPSOILED, FERTILISED AND TURFED OR MULCH AS REQUIRED
(BY CONTRACTOR).

+ BIORETENTION BASIN 3 TO BE IN ACCORDANCE WITH PLAN 1225-74

(BY CONTRACTOR).

+ REMOVE ANY ONSITE RUBBISH. (BY CONTRACTOR)

+ ENSURE ALL DECLARED & ENVIRONMENTAL WEEDS ARE REMOVED FROM LANDSCAPE
AREAS, (BY LANDSCAPER)

+ LOCATE SERVICES PRIOR TO PLANTING. (BY LANDSCAPER)

4. SOIL PREPARATION

FOR LANDSCAPING AREAS WITHIN ROAD RESERVES THE SOIL SHALL BE PREPARED AS

FOLLOWS:

. TOPSOIL FOR ALLOTMENT FILL SHOULD BE A MINIMUM 100MM THICK AND FREE FROM
WEEDS, RUBBISH AND STICKS. (BY CONTRACTOR).

* SOIL SHALL BE ROTARY HOED SO THAT NO CLODS OR COMPACTED TOPSOIL IS
PRESENT AND FERTILISED WITH G88 AND LIMED TO ACHEIVE A NEUTRAL PH.(BY
CONTRACTOR)

. SOIL IMPORTED IS TO COMPLY WITH THE AUSTRALIAN STANDARD (AS 4410) - SOIL
FOR LANDSCAPING AND GARDENS.(BY LANDSCAPER).

. SOIL IMPORTED TO GARDEN BEDS SHOULD HAVE SIMILAR SOIL STRUCTURE TO THAT
EXISTING IN THE AREA. (BY LANDSCAPER).

* REMOVE ANY REMAINING WEEDS, DEBRIS, RUBBISH, GRASS, ETC. FROM AREAS TO BE
PLANTED;(BY LANDSCAPER)

. IN CONJUNCTION WITH ROADWORK, REMOVE ALL BITUMEN AND ROAD BASE FROM
AREAS TO BE PLANTED TO A DEPTH OF 600MM FROM TOP OF KERB. EXCAVATE TO A
DEPTH OF 600MM WHERE GARDEN BEDS ARE TO BE FORMED BESIDE ROADWAYS AND
FILL WITH TOPSOIL TO 100MM BELOW TOP OF KERB TO ALLOW FOR DEPTH OF
MULCH. (BY LANDSCAPER).

. ADD TOPSOIL (PREFERABLY LOCAL SOIL) AS REQUIRED, FORM GARDEN BEDS AND
SPREAD ANY STOCKPILED TOPSOIL TO FINISHED LEVELS;

. ANY IMPORTED TOPSOIL TO BE FREE OF LARGE STONES, WEEDS, STICKS, RUBBISH,
MATERIAL TOXIC TO PLANT GROWTH, NUT GRASS & OXALIS, AND DECLARED PESTS
SUCH AS FIRE ANTS;

. BEDS ADJACENT TO HARD AREAS TO FINISH 75MM BELOW PAVED LEVEL OR TOP OF
KERB TO ALLOW FOR DEPTH OF MULCH;

¢ Gardens beds should be left for one month prior to planting to
allow the treatment of weeds contained in the soil and to allow
for regeneration of natural seeds;

¢ — When constructing mounding or banks, highly compacted fill

5.

MATERIAL IN THE TOP 600MM SHOULD BE AVOIDED AS THIS CAN IMPEDE ROOT
PENETRATION AND THE SUCCESSFUL GROWTH OF PLANTS.

MAINTAIN MAXIMUM FALL OF 1:2 TO ENSURE STABILITY OF MULCH ON SLOPES AND
ALLOW FOR ACCESS FOR MAINTENANCE.

BATTER SLOPES BETWEEN 1:3 AND 1:2. BATTERS ARE TO BE TYNED HORIZONTALS TO
25MM DEEP BELOW TOPSOILING. TOPSOIL AND MULCH IS TO BE PRESSED ONTO THE
BATTERS WITH THE BACK OF THE EXCAVATOR BUCKET (BY CONTRACTOR).

AS FOLLOWS:

6.

APPLICATION I.E. SPRAYING THE LEAF SURFACE WITH HERBICIDE. PROTECT EXISTING
NATIVE VEGETATION BY USING SCREENS (BY LANDSCAPER).

CUT AND PASTE FOR WOODY SPECIES SUCH AS CASSIA, LANTANA, GROUNDSEL,
WHERE THE TREE/SHRUB IS LOPPED AND HERBICIDE IS APPLIED TO THE STUMP
IMMEDIATELY (BY LANDSCAPER).

USE GLYPHOSATE MIXTURE AS DETAILED BELOW (BY LANDSCAPER).

PLACED IN A DISPOSABLE BAG AND SEALED (BY LANDSCAPER).

REMOVAL OF WEED SPECIES IS TO OCCUR PRIOR TO PLANTING STAGE. IT MAY BE
NECESSARY TO DO TWO ROUNDS OF WEED REMOVAL ABOUT 4 WEEKS APART (BY
LANDSCAPER).

REPLACE PLANT MORTALITIES ON AN AS NEEDS BASIS.

MAINTENANCE OF PLANTING FOR THE FIRST YEAR IS TO BE DONE BY THE LANDSCAPER AND
WILL BE ASSESSED AFTER ONE YEAR TO ENSURE:

. PLANTS ARE HEALTHY & SHOWING SIGNS OF VIGOROUS GROWTH

. THE AREA IS DEEMED TO BE SELF-SUSTAINING AND PLANTS ARE PROVIDING COVER
TO SOIL LE. 90% COVER.

80% OF TREES ARE A MINIMUM OF 2M ABOVE GROUND LEVEL

80% OF SHRUBS ARE A MINIMUM OF 1M ABOVE GROUND LEVEL

VEGETATION PLANTED AT APPROPRIATE DENSITIES.

NATSPEC CERTIFICATION OF STREET TRESS REQUIRED AT ON-MAINTENANCE

THE MAINTENANCE FOR THE SECOND YEAR SHALL BE UNDERTAKEN BY THE DEVELOPER.
AFTER SECOND YEAR ENSURE:
. PLANTS ARE HEALTHY & SHOWING SIGNS OF VIGOROUS HEALTH
TREES HAVE DOUBLED IN SIZE FROM FIRST YEAR
. SHRUBS ARE ALL 1—2M IN HEIGHT
. STRUCTURAL DAMAGE TO TREES ARE MINOR

THE MAINTENANCE FOR THE THIRD YEAR SHALL BE UNDERTAKEN BY THE DEVELOPER. AFTER
THIRD YEAR ENSURE:

. PLANTS ARE HEALTHY

. 80% OF TREES ARE OFFERING SHADE

11. MAINTENANCE OF TURF & HYDRO MULCH

. THE CONTRACTOR IS TO MAINTAIN THE TURF AND HYDRO MULCH TILL THE WORKS
ARE ACCEPTED ON MAINTENANCE. THE TURF IS TO ACHEIVE 100% COVER AND THE
HYDRO MULCH 80% COVER.

. THE DEVELOPER WILL THEN MAINTAIN THE GRASS FOR THE ONE YEAR MAINTENANCE

PERIOD.

CIVIL — GEOFABRIC & MAINTAIN TURF: MULCH BATTERS

LANDSCAPING — REPLANT BATTERS

80% OR 2 YEARS — LANDSCAPER TO TAKE OFF GEOFABRIC & TURF

UNTIL ON MAINTENANCE — CIVIL TURF

TILL OFF MAINTENANCE — OWNER
