Attachment 6 - Arborist Statement

1. Brief
Treesafe Australia Pty Ltd has been engaged by Michael Lyell, director of Urban Town Planning to undergo
a root zone investigation for one mature Araucaria heterophylla (Norfolk Island Pine) located on the road
reserve of Clipper Street Sunrise beach.

Two preliminary site visits have been conducted to determine the retention of the subject tree with the
influences of the proposed development.

Discussions were held on both occasions between the consulting arborist and Michael Lyell regarding the
relaxation of the proposed driveway alignment to reduce incursion percentages within Tree Protection zone
(TPZ) and away from the Structural Root Zone (SRZ) of the Norfolk Island Pine.

2. Proposal
The proposal includes the construction of a two-story, triplex unit development with supporting
infrastructures including the installation of a driveway crossover connecting to Clipper Street.

Excavation works are proposed to occur within the TPZ and in close proximity to the SRZ of the Norfolk
Island Pine for the installation of the concrete driveway.

3. Site
The assessment site, Real Property Description Lot 83 on R.P. 132135 consists of a 920.45 m2, east
southeast facing parcel of vacant residential land adjoining 4 Ventura Street Sunrise beach.
