                 Issue – Vegetation
                 The proposal identifies existing large trees within the road reserve for retention. However, the
                 proposed adjustment to the driveway crossover is in close proximity to these trees with
                 potential to result in a major encroachment into the Tree Protection Zone(s) (TPZ).
                 Insufficient information has been provided to demonstrate that the proposed works will avoid
                 adverse impacts on the structural or ecological integrity of these trees.
                 These trees contribute significantly to the established streetscape character and local amenity.
                 The proposal must clearly demonstrate how these trees will be protected and managed to
                 ensure their retention throughout all stages of development.
                 Information Required
                 6.     Provide an Arboricultural Impact Assessment (AIA) prepared by an AQF Level 5
                        qualified arborist in accordance with AS4970 Protection of trees on development sites,
                        including:
                        6.1. Identification of all trees within proximity to the development site, including
                             calculation and mapping of Tree Protection Zones (TPZ) and Structural Root
                             Zones (SRZ) for each tree, in relation to proposed works
                        6.2. Demonstrate the proposal will not encroach into the TPZ of any trees or
                             compromise their ecological or structural integrity.
                        6.3. If encroachment is unavoidable, provide details of the extent, justification, and
                             proposed mitigation measures.
                        6.4. A tree protection plan, including tree protection specifications and a tree protection
                             plan, outlining measures necessary to protect and manage the trees throughout
                             all stages of the development. Specifications should include fencing, signage, soil
                             protection, and any special construction techniques required.
