Arborist Report
14 Serenity Close, Noosa Heads




1 INTRODUCTION
The following Arborist Report has been prepared by Litoria Consulting on behalf of Calile
Malouf Investments for land described as 14 Serenity Close, Noosa Heads Qld (Lots 10 and
11 on SP195871) (the subject land).

The Arborist Report has been prepared as part of an application to change an existing
approval (Council Application Ref.: 132008.176.03, dated 9 February 2017).

The objectives of the Arborist Report are to:

      1. Identify significant and/or protected vegetation / trees,
      2. Assess vegetation condition / health, habitat features and/or other special
         features,
      3. Determine tree protection zones (TPZ) and structural root zones (SRZ) for
         vegetation in accordance with Australian Standard AS 4970-2009 Protection of
         trees on development sites (AS 4970-2009) (Standards Australia 2009),
      4. Evaluate opportunities, including alternative engineering designs, for retention (or
         removal) based on the Australian Standard AS 4970-2009 Protection of trees on
         development sites, and,
      5. Identify methods to avoid, mitigate and manage aspects of development to
         ensure:
         a. Retention of significant trees,
         b. Compliance with relevant planning requirements.

The management measures outlined in the report are to be implemented by the developer
and their contractors at all times whilst site works are occurring within the curtilage of the
retained trees. Compliance with the requirements is to be administered by a Project
Arborist (AQF Level 5) with experience in construction supervision.

The report is divided into the following sections:

   ● Previously approved development,
   ● Proposed development,
   ● Methods,
   ● Results,
   ● Vegetation management, and
   ● Appendices.
