5. Developed Site Management

The proposed layout the sketch shows the areas of development and the retained open
space.

5.1 Vegetation Management

5.1.1 Development Nodes

The overall landscape strategy focuses upon creating an upped layer of tree canopy with a
ground cover of grasses, lawns and retaining walls.

Selected areas will have a middle layer of shrubs including Banksia, Grevillea, Lomandra
and Jacksonia to provide refuge for smaller animal and bird life.

This will present no problems from a bush fire perspective provided there is no vertical
development of fuels within ten metres of houses.

§.1.2 Open Space Zones

This long-term aim is to move most of the site towards a rainforest cypress over storey
with a range of moist understorey combinations.

This will provide good bushfire protection because these areas are largely fire proof in their
current condition.
