be 2m away from underground services and utilities according to the Noosa Landscaping Code 9.4.5

respect to required Unity Water setbacks and site service locations.

Issue 8

There are inconsistencies between the legend and the plan on the Landscape Operational Works
Package LP1 and LP2. For example the two ‘street trees’ identifier on the legend of LP1 is a circle
with a dark spot in the middle however the two street trees identified have a circle with a large cross.
This is providing confusion between what is trees, shrubs and streettrees on the plan.
Information Required
  8. Correct the landscaping plans to remove the inconsistencies between the legend and what is
     detailed on the plan to allow for clear understanding of the differences betweenshrubs, trees
     and street trees in particular.
Response
CAD drafting line weight Issue resolved, refer to Issue B plan set.

details requirements for retained trees however no information has been provided stating if any trees
are to be retained.
Information Required
    9. Provide detail (location, species, height etc.) on any trees to be retained.
Response
No existing trees are retained.

Issue 10
A Eucalyptus is located on council land at the frontage of the property that is within theproposed
location of the driveway. Is this tree proposed to be removed?
Information Required
  10. Amend the landscaping plans to include a third street tree of the same species provided.
Response
This tree is to be removed to allow for the proposed driveway. There is not enough available space
within the site’s road reserve frontage to allow for an additional tree due to setbacks from proposed
concrete driveway, stormwater carry-off pipes to kerbs, vehicular sight lines, 1m underground setback
to existing Telstra line, 1m water line setback to existing Unity Water main, and proposed required
footpath.

We trust this is in order. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call.
