RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY – NOT THE FINAL DECISION OF COUNCIL
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING                                                   16 JANUARY 2017


         40.   Landscaping for the areas surrounding the bioretention basin filter media
               footprint must be arranged to minimise shading to the filter media footprint are.
               Suitable plants include the following:
               a.   Carex appressa
               b.   Carex fascicularis
               c.   Ficinia nodosa
               d.   Juncus usitatis
               e.   Lomandra longifolia
               f.   Ghania sieberiana
               g.   Banksia robur
               h.   Dianella brevipendunculata
               i.   Themada triandra
               j.   Cymbopogan refractus
               k.   Melaleuca thymifolia
         41.   Where landscaping/garden beds are proposed adjacent to the bioretention basin,
               or where the basin is located adjacent to naturally forested areas, a 900mm deep
               root barrier must be installed to the interface between the
               landscape/garden/forest area and the bioretention basin to prevent root intrusion
               to the biobasin infrastructure.
         42.   Where required, mulch within the batters of bioretention basins must be installed
               in a manner that it will not escape into receiving stormwater drainage
               infrastructure or water courses.
               Bioretention Devices - Education
         43.   The development must provide approved permanent signage to educate the
               public on the function of the bioretention basin. The wording for the signage for
               each bioretention basin is to include: “BIORETENTION BASIN - This bioretention
               basin reduces the pollution of our waterways by reducing the amount of heavy
               metals, litter, suspended solids, and nutrients discharged to Eenie Creek”.
               FOLLOWING CONSTRUCTION
               Certification
         44.   Upon completion of the work and prior to the final inspection a certificate must
               be issued by an RPEQ certifying that the works have been constructed in
               accordance with the Operational Works permit and applicable engineering
               standards.
         45.   A final inspection and approval of the completed works by Council’s Inspector is
               required. Please contact Council on 5329 6291 to arrange for the inspection.
    B.   Find that the tasting room and associated kitchen and preparation area is ancillary and
         complementary to the primary industrial use on-site and will not cause any reverse
         amenity issues and therefore is sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the
         conflict with the Planning Scheme.
                                                                                       Carried.
