SPECIAL MEETING MINUTES                                                     31 AUGUST 2020


                    Future Environmental Offset
              59.   For the purposes of calculating any environmental offset that might be
                    required for the ultimate development of Lot 3 on SP246584 for the Shire
                    Business Centre, the plan described as 034389.59 prepared by Bennett &
                    Francis Pty Ltd and dated April 2020 shows the maximum extent of clearing
                    (i.e. 12.4943ha). For the avoidance of doubt, while the plan shows the
                    maximum extent of clearing for offset purposes, the clearing ultimately
                    undertaken will not necessarily be the maximum extent (noting that the
                    Shire Business Centre is to occur in a park like setting).
                    Infrastructure Agreement
              60.   The Applicant/Owner shall comply with the terms of any Infrastructure
                    Agreement applying to the land.
         B.   Enter into an Infrastructure Agreement to provide for the transference of Lot 24
              to Council as a future transit lot at nil cost to Council and enable Council to
              condition the necessary land dedication and works required for the development.
         C.   Note that Lot 24 has been valued by Savills Valuations Pty Ltd for Council as
              $1,475,000 exclusive of GST, with the appellant’s valuation being between $2.9
              - $3.2 million dollars.
         D.   Commence a planning scheme amendment process in accordance with the
              Minister’s Guidelines and Rules to show the provision for a transit facility
              designated only in a location consistent with lot 24 on the Approved Plan.
         E.   Enter into a deed of Agreed Delivery Arrangement to provide a mechanism for
              the proposed offset arrangements for clearing of koala habitat pursuant to the
              Environmental Offsets Act 2014.
         F.   Transfer the Financial Settlement Offset Amount to the Council’s offset account
              to be held in trust in accordance with the requirements of the Environment Offset
              Act 2014 and the deed of Agreed Delivery Arrangement.
                                                                       Carried unanimously.
