 risks of the natural hazard to an acceptable or         A very small portion of the site’s north eastern
 tolerable level, and                                    corner is identified as an erosion prone area and
                                                         subject to flood hazard. This area of the site is
                                                         located within proposed lot 9 which will
                                                         accommodate the existing detached house which
                                                         is outside the identified hazard areas. No new
                                                         development is proposed within the area of the
                                                         site mapped as being subject to natural hazards. In
                                                         this regard the development is considered to have
                                                         avoided natural hazard areas in accordance with

                                                         this regard the proposed development will not
