1.3 Development Proposal

It is understood the proponent seeks to develop the site for a youth camp which will offer a single
‘clamping village’ inclusive of 14 cabins and 1 communal tent. The Plan of Development has been
provided as Appendix 1.

Therefore, the applicable vulnerable use Assessment Benchmarks listed in Table 3 of the
Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning’s Natural Hazards, Risk and
Resilience — Bushfire (December 2019) State Planning Policy — state interest guidance material;
(SPP Bushfire 2019) apply. It is noted that the location of the proposed development is only within
