Figure 18: Location of proposed facility (arrowed) looking west on the subject property



As illustrated in Figures 17 and 18, while the proposed facility has been located
on a relatively clear portion of the subject site, mature vegetation surrounding
the proposed compound area will provide significant screening benefits to the
proposed facility. This mature vegetation will assist in integrating the facility into
the surrounding landscape, and will also provide screening to the proposed
facility when viewed from the surrounding area. The dense vegetation in the
reserve land to the west of the proposed compound area, which extends as tall
as 15-20 m, will not only provide a backdrop to the facility when viewed from
the east, but will provide a buffer between the proposed facility and dwellings
located to the west along Devonstone Drive.

Furthermore, and as illustrated in Figure 19, the surrounding Cooroibah area is
also characterised by areas of dense vegetation. Mature trees on adjoining lots
and within the wider area will further obscure views towards the proposed
facility, in turn reducing its visual dominance in the landscape.
