Information Required by Council

3.     Provide an amended design which incorporates indents to wall alignments and increases the
       volume and quality of the landscaping at the frontage to assist with screening hardscape walls, bin
       storage and side boundary fencing


Applicant’s Response




Please refer to Attachment 2 + 3 - Amended Plans prepared by Blackburne Jackson dated 13.03.24 and
Amended Landscaping Plans prepared by Blackburne Jackson – Operational Works Issue – 13.03.24.

Landscaping has been moved from behind the front entry wall to in front of it, to add further softening of
the built form, fences and bin area. This has increased the volume and quality of landscaping as requested.


                                                                   PO Box 1818        07 5474 3873
                                                                   Noosa Heads        [email protected]
                                                                   QLD 4567           rgstrategic.com.au

The renders and landscaping plan included clearly that there is significant planting occurring in these
localities of ground covers, mid and canopy trees that will break up and minimise any presentation of the
entrance fencing.

The side boundary fencing is now proposed to be a mixture of timber palings and rendered block work. This
is in keeping with the design palette of the locality and with the use of different materials and textures the
perceived hardscaped walls have been softened.




Information Required by Council

4.      Provide an amended design which incorporates the required landscape design elements to the wall
        as required under PO17 of the Medium Density Residential zone code.


Applicant’s Response

Please refer to Attachment 2 + 3 - Amended Plans prepared by Blackburne Jackson dated 13.03.24 and
Amended Landscaping Plans prepared by Blackburne Jackson – Operational Works Issue – 13.03.24.

The front fence has now been moved back in its entire length 1m from the front boundary to meet the
requirements of the Acceptable Outcomes.

The fence is set within timber palings and rendered posts; no greater section greater in length than 5m.
Dense landscaping has also been provided in front of the fence abutting to the existing footpath.




                                                                     PO Box 1818        07 5474 3873
