 3.0 SITE CHARACTER

The site falls from the rear boundary at the south to the street frontage at the north by an
average of 2.0M over the 50.0M length of the property. The site is rectangular in shape with
a truncation on the north-west corner. The primary street frontage is to Venture Drive and
secondary frontage is to Vision Court. There is an existing pedestrian pathway located
across the frontage of the subject site and surrounding new vacant sites. However the
pedestrian pathway does not wrap around into Vision Court. The existing vegetation on the
site comprises grass regrowth, there is no mature native vegetation as the land was cleared
and benched recently as part of the creation of the estate. There is large bio-retention basin
to the north of the site, (to the rear of lots 16 & 17) that has been provided to manage
stormwater runoff for this site and the other new sites created in the Venture Drive industrial
estate.

There is an electricity easement located at the south west corner of the site (rear boundary
fronting Vision Court) with dimensions of 4.8m x 5.0m. This was constructed by Energex.
Underground Telstra and Electricity infrastructure is located outside of the proposed
landscape areas of the site in the nature strip. An existing sewerage man-hole is located at
the north-east corner of the site within the proposed landscape area. Please refer to
attached – Civil Works and Building Design Drawings that reflect this information.
