MCU22.0101- Reps to Council's Conditions · MCU22/0101

Representations to Condition 13

As it has been argued above that Condition 10 is not a reasonable nor relevant condition and is proposed to
be amended; Condition 13 is no longer relevant.

Proposed Amendment to Condition 13

It is proposed that Condition 13 be deleted.



Condition 15

15. Landscaping of the site must be undertaken as detailed on Plan SD103 Plan – Proposed Landscape
prepared by Robinson Architects. An application for operational works is to be submitted and approved prior
to issue of Building Approval and include:
15.1. The landscape planter and soft landscaping area are to remain open to the elements and not roofed.
15.2. The soft landscape area is to include 4 x45 litre tree species and understorey plantings.

Representations to Condition 15

The requirement for the applicant to provide 4 x 45ltr trees in the landscaping areas denoted on Plan SD103
is unreasonable. No tree species are suitable to be planted in the planter box on the external deck and
outdoor dining area due to the shallow planting depth.

The planting of tree species is suitable only to the landscape area on the ground floor, rear of the deck. This
area is 4.4 metres in length and as such will only support, as a maximum, two (2) tree species. It is proposed
that two (2) 45ltr Tuckeroo (Cupaniopsis) trees are planted to this area, along with understorey planting.
Tuckeroo trees generally grow to a height of 5 to 8 metres and width of 5 to 7 metres. As such, along with
understorey planting, the proposed two (2) trees will screen the deck from car park.

A Detailed Landscape Plan will be submitted to Council as part of an application for a permit for Operational
Works.

Proposed Amendment to Condition 15

It is proposed that Condition 15 be amended to read as:

15. Landscaping of the site must be undertaken as detailed on Plan SD103 Plan – Proposed Landscape
prepared by Robinson Architects. An application for operational works is to be submitted and approved prior
to issue of Building Approval and include:
15.1. The landscape planter and soft landscaping area are to remain open to the elements and not roofed.
15.2. The soft landscape area is to include 2 x45 litre Tuckeroo (Cupaniopsis) trees and understorey plantings.
