Representations to achieve a Negotiated Decision Notice

had to maintain a gravel track) and are now asking for others to build it which is
unreasonable.

To support the proposed layout our client advised they are willing to install a pool fence
on the northern boundary of Lot 7 and a portion of Lot 8 up to end of road reserve as
per plan 1702-08 Rev B. This is to address the Planning comment from Council meetings
that a detraction to proposed Lots 7 & 8 was keeping the existing 1.8m paling fence on
road reserve frontage.

For the above reasons, the construction of a new half road is no longer considered
necessary and we ask that Condition 7 be deleted from the Decision Notice.

VEGETATION
Condition 13

       Current Condition 13
       13. Existing native trees on the site and in the road verge must be retained in
       accordance with an Arborist Report for the development and referenced in a
       Development Permit for Operational Works. The existing native trees to be
       retained must be located clear of proposed services, not present a nuisance to
       neighbouring properties and generally suitable for the proposed location.

Comment:
With regard to Condition 13, we note that Lots 1 – 5 will require minor fill and thus
minor clearing. The client intends on maintaining the vast majority of the native trees
within the subject site and that only where necessary will clearing occur (ie. Road
reserves and services areas). As such, an Arborist Report is not considered necessary
and we request that Condition 13 be amended to read:

        Amened Condition 13
       13. Existing native trees on the site and in the road verge must be retained in
       accordance with an Arborist Report for the development and referenced in a
       Development Permit for Operational Works. The existing native trees to be
       retained must be located clear of proposed services, not present a nuisance to
       neighbouring properties and generally suitable for the proposed location.


LANDSCAPING WORKS
Condition 15d

       Current Condition 15d
       15. The development site must be landscaped. The works must be undertaken in
       accordance with an Operational Works approval and the Noosa Plan for that
       specific area and must include in particular:
       d. Retaining walls within the bio-basin must be constructed or permanently
       faced with materials which provide for a natural appearance such as
       sandstone, bluestone, granite or the like.

Comment:
With regard to Condition 15d, the client notes that ‘grouted rock’ will be used for the
retaining wall. As such, we request that Condition 15d be amended to read:
