Comment: The proposed Multiple Housing – Type 2 (Duplex) development achieves compliance with
the Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions of the Residential Uses Code.




LANDSCAPING CODE
A summary of the proposed development‘s compliance with the purpose of the Landscaping Code,
Traffic and Parking is included below.

The purpose of this code is to ensure:
   a) retains, reinforces and enhances the natural landscape character of the site, streetscape and
       locality;
   b) retains existing vegetation and other natural features for their ecological, aesthetic and
       cultural values;
   c) ensures the revegetation and rehabilitation of native wildlife habitat and riparian zones to
       protect and enhance ecological and biodiversity values;
   d) facilitates water management including on-site detention and the efficient infiltration of
       stormwater;
   e) enables the establishment of appropriate plantings that are of a scale and density
       commensurate with building height, bulk and scale to buffer development and conflicting land
       uses;
   f) enhances privacy between dwelling units and accommodation units;
   g) accommodates the outdoor recreation needs of dwelling occupants; and
   h) provides adequate vegetation treatment to steep slopes and unstable landforms.

Comment: The proposal achieves compliance with the Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions of
the Landscaping Code as follows:-

   The Landscaping Code requires a minimum landscaped area equivalent to the proposed
    population multiplied by 40m2 (6.6 persons x 40m2, is a minimum of 264m 2), provided that a
    minimum of 60% of this is soft landscaping (60% of 264m2, is 158.4m2). The proposal achieves
    265.5m2 (39%) of the subject site as landscaped area with 193.7m2 as soft landscaping,
    exceeding the minimum landscape requirements. Landscaped areas include street frontages, rear
   The proposed landscaping treatment retains a number of existing trees promoting the existing
    character of precinct.
   The majority of proposed private balconies overlook the landscaped areas enhancing the amenity
    and visual interest of the outdoor spaces.

Please refer to the Ground Floor Plan prepared by Teeland Architecture included as Attachment B
which details the proposed Landscaping Design.

Further details of landscaping will be provided as part of a subsequent operational works application.
