                      Similarly, the tiered retaining walls located along the south-western boundary only afford a
                      very narrow area for planting that is unsuitable for trees. This area has therefore been
                      purposefully notated on the approved Landscape Concept Plan as comprising ‘lush shade
                      tolerant shrubs’, bordered by medium sized columnar trees to the north and feature pine
                      trees in the south-western corner – refer Figure 5.




                      In light of the above, given the Landscape Concept Plan package provided at Appendix B
                      has been updated to maximise the amount of tree planting achievable to the northern,
                      eastern and western boundaries, we request that Condition 26 (b) be deleted. Similarly, given
                      introduction of the fire hydrant pump room prevents any additional tall trees being placed
                      along the western side of the footpath adjacent to “Unit 01”, we request that (c) also be
                      deleted.
               Assessment of Request
               Agree
               The proposed species replacement shown in the landscape package are agreed to be more
               appropriate in context of underground infrastructure, shading and retaining walls.
               Recommendation
               It is recommended existing condition 26 be amended to read as follows:
               26.    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:
                      a.      The works shown on the Approved Landscape Concept Plan.
                      b.      Incorporation of addition large trees capable of scaling the built form provided along
                              the northern, eastern and western boundaries spaced at 5 metre centres along each
                              of the boundaries. Deleted.
