                             h. be clearly identified by directional signage at the street frontage.

                         3. Landscaping on proposed lot 1 should generally include:
                             a. Planting or maintaining lower flammability trees and shrubs 10 with good barrier-
                                 forming attributes. Lower flammability species suitable to the site could include:

                                 i. Non‑combustible, raised and irrigated garden beds containing herbs or other
                                       food-producing plants
                                 ii. Moderately dense evergreen trees, orchards or hedged species e.g. Cupaniopsis
                                       anacardioides, Elaeocarpus reticulatus, Tristaniopsis laurina, Guioa semiglauca
                                       and Podocarpus elatus.

                             b. Avoid vegetation that regularly dries out during the bushfire season.
                             c. Avoid planting near doors, vents and windows.
                             d. Avoid storage of green waste within the curtilage of any buildings.
                             e. Removal of dead or dry leaves, twigs and branches.
                             f. Removal of leaves and branches which overhang buildings and pathways.
                             g. Removal or thinning areas of unmanaged vegetation.
                             h. Dead plants should be removed immediately during the bushfire season.
                             i. Maintaining plants and garden beds clear of ground litter and other combustible
                                 debris.
                             j. Irrigating during periods of hot, dry weather.

                 Additional requirements in relation to the installation of fire trails or other emergency services
                 access are not required as the lot is otherwise separated from bushfire prone areas by Hoy
                 Rd.

                 8 BUSHFIRE HAZARD OVERLAY CODE
                 The proposed development involves assessable development identified as requiring
                 assessment against the Bushfire hazard overlay code by the tables of assessment in Table
                 5.9.3 (Tables of assessment - Overlays) of Noosa Plan.

                 The purpose of the Bushfire hazard overlay code is achieved via the following outcomes:

                       a) Development in areas at risk from bushfire hazard is compatible with the nature of the
                           hazard.
                       b) The risk to people, property and the natural environment from bushfire hazard is
                           minimised.




                 10 Lower flammability trees and shrubs are species with attributes that reduce the ease of combustion, minimise contribution to

                 potential fuel load, or act as a potential barrier, reducing the rate of fire spread.
