Other recommendations for building siting and landscaping
It is recommended that:
    •    The building to have a bushfire fuel free zone around the house, the building be
         constructed with a minimum of lodgement points for burning debris and on-going
         maintenance of the building be conducted.
See Sections 8.4, 8.5 and 8.6 of this report.

Recommendations for part E: Natural hazards of the Queensland State Planning Policy 2017
It is recommended that, notwithstanding that the proposed building location is in an area of
Potential Bushfire Hazard:
    •    The building siting, construction, firefighting resources appropriately mitigates the potential
         bushfire Hazard as required by the SPP
    •    The development does not unduly burden emergency services as there is good access for
         firefighting appliances, good fire fighting space, good water supply and contributes only one
         extra building in the emergency services area
    •    The building and the cleared and hard-standing areas decreases the severity of a bushfire
         on the lot and therefore does not increase severity of the bushfire Hazard and,
    •    There will be no hazardous material stored on the lot.
