PO7
Lot design and building siting minimises bushfire hazard Each residential lot:
risk to people and property. a) includes a building envelope, identified on a plan of subdivision;

b)is of sufficient size and shape to allow for efficient emergency
access to buildings for firefighting appliances (e.g. by avoiding battle
axe/hatchet lots and long narrow lots with long access driveways to
buildings);

c) where more than 2500m?, achieves setbacks from hazardous
vegetation in line with Bushfire Attack Level 29 requirements as per
AS3959; and

d) is designed so that buildings and structures are sited in locations of
lowest hazard within the lot and elements of the development least
susceptible to fire are closest to the fire hazard,

 
  

POs
Firebreaks and fire access tracks provide:

A08.1

Where development involves the creation of a new road and lots, a
firebreak is provided by providing a cleared road reserve not less than
20 metres wide and maximum gradient of 12.5% around the perimeter
of the subdivision, between the created lots and surrounding
vegetated lands.

a) adequate access for firefighting and other
emergency vehicles; and

b) adequate access for the evacuation of residents and. OR

emergency personnel in an emergency situation. A082
Fire access tracks are provided between the created lots and
surrounding vegetated land that:

a) have a cleared minimum width of 6 metres;

b) have a maximum gradient of 12.5%;

©) provide unbroken access for fire fighting vehicles;

d) provide passing bays and turning areas;

e) are located within an access easement that is granted in favour of
Noosa Council and the Queensland Fire and Rescue Service.
A08.3

Bushfire management measures are carried out on the subject
property and not any adjoining property.

 
   

P07 — N/A — No residential lots proposed.

  

 

 

 

‘A08.2 - In this instance, the location of the proposed buildings at significant
distance from the confirmed hazardous vegetation, and dominance of low
hazard vegetation about the buildings (i.e. golf course area, sports fields, and
permaculture fields), negates the requirement for a formal firebreak to be
adopted between the buildings and the identified hazardous vegetation.

Itis noted that given the existing use of the site (golf course) and gentle grade
across the site (1-5 degrees), it is expected that emergency access to the
hazardous vegetation is readily available across the site.

A08.3- All bushfire management measures prescribed herein would be carried
out on the subject property and not rely upon any adjoining property.
