 Bushfire Hazard Overlay                        Comment
                                                The site is identified as containing a high bushfire
                                                hazard area along the eastern boundary and there
                                                are potential impact buffers extending through the
                                                eastern portion of the site and adjacent to the site’s
                                                frontage with Black Mountain Range Road.

                                                Please refer to the Bushfire Management Report
                                                at Appendix F which confirms that each lot
                                                contains a sufficient building area for a future
                                                dwelling with a predicted radiant heat flux not
                                                exceeding 29 kW/m², subject to the
                                                recommended APZ and bushfire management
                                                measures.

 Biodiversity, Waterways and Wetlands Overlay   Comment
                                                The site contains mapped areas of biodiversity
                                                significance and riparian buffer areas. The
                                                development, including the proposed building
                                                envelopes, will completely avoid vegetation
                                                mapped as an Area of Biodiversity Significance.

                                                The development will also generally avoid the
                                                mapped Riparian Buffer Area extending through
                                                the site, except for a small portion of the common
                                                boundary between proposed Lots 1 and 2, which
                                                traverses the outer extent of a mapped Riparian
                                                Buffer associated with a first order stream.

                                                The proposed boundary maintains a significant
                                                separation of approximately 41.6m from the
                                                associated waterway, which presents as a
                                                grassed gully line in this location.

                                                An assessment against the Biodiversity,
                                                Waterways and Wetlands Overlay Code is

 Landslide Hazard Overlay                       Comment
                                                The majority of the site is mapped as being
                                                affected by moderate or high landslide hazard
                                                areas.

                                                A Geotechnical Investigation Report prepared by
                                                Tectonic at Appendix D confirms no indicators of
                                                existing slope instability were observed within the
                                                proposed development areas and that a low risk of
                                                instability is achievable, subject to future building
                                                works being designed in accordance with the
                                                report.
