It is considered that the proposed lot layout is commensurate with the area of lots to the immediate north and
further east so as to maintain the traditional streetscape character. The proposed lots will also be connected to
existing services and this is addressed in more detail in the accompanying Engineering Report, included at
Appendix D.

In recognition of the site’s environmental constraints (Regulated Vegetation – Category B), dedication of the
balance of the site to Council (as trustee for PUL or in fee simple) for the purposes of environmental protection
and drainage is anticipated. Legal and practical access to the environmental (park) lot 900 is available directly
from George Street, whilst the proposed lot layout has been designed in response to the existing vegetation on
the site. A Preliminary Vegetation Rehabilitation Plan, included at Appendix E, has been prepared by Mark
Bizzell from Environmental Landscape Planning. The plan shows the existing trees to be retained and those
trees to be removed and it be noted that the majority of trees that have been identified for removal within the
developable area have not been identified as potential koala habitat (gum) trees.

General development statistics are set out in Table 4 – Project Outline below.
