Table 4: Site Characteristics

Site Features                                 Details
Existing use of site                          The site comprises contaminated land resulting from a previous landfill operation
                                              under the slash pine over the southern portion of the site and nightsoil disposal
                                              over the cleared northern portion of the site. We understand Council has recently
                                              resolved to ameliorate this contamination as part of the operational works required
                                              to create the parent subdivision.
Topography                                    The subject site (Proposed Lot 1) has a gradient sloping from the south-western
                                              corner (RL113m AHD) toward the north-eastern corner (RL104m AHD), thereby
                                              necessitating earthworks and retaining structures to accommodate the proposed
                                              development.
Vegetation                                    The site is largely devoid of any vegetation, with the exception of some camphor
                                              laurel located adjacent to the Lake Macdonald Drive frontage which we
                                              understand will be cleared in conjunction with the civil works associated with
                                              creation of the subject site under RAL25/0004.
Road Frontages and Length                     Upon its creation, the subject site will enjoy a ≈38m road frontage to the new
                                              internal road extending from Dianella Court.
Services                                      Upon its creation, the subject site will be connected to all essential services.
