                                               -4-



18.   A noise assessment report prepared by an independent acoustic engineer shall be submitted
      to Council after construction of the acoustic buffer to Noosa Drive. The report is to indicate
      whether the buffer achieves the acoustic requirements of this development approval for single
      storey dwelling houses and advise of any other remedial actions that may need to be
      implemented. The developer shall implement all identified remedial actions to the reasonable
      satisfaction of the Manager Land Use.
19.   Screening species shall be provided to the area of land between the acoustic buffer and the
      access driveway to the site where the acoustic buffer is located along the property boundary
      and the boundary of the easement to create a visual buffer between the acoustic buffer and
      Noosa Drive.
20.   The first floor of units 4 – 10 shall be acoustically designed to ensure road noise does not
      exceed 63dB(A)L10(18hours) based on predicted traffic volumes ten years hence. An acoustic
      report prepared by a suitably qualified consultant shall be lodged with an application for
      Building Works identifying suitable noise mitigation measures for these units.              All
      recommended mitigation measures for the subject units shall be installed prior to occupation.
Koala Management
21.   All clearing of native vegetation on-site shall be in accordance with Section 16 of the Nature
      Conservation (Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 requiring that a koala spotter be present on site
      to protect koalas from death or injury and allow for their safe movement away from areas of
      the site subject to clearing. Koala habitat trees include species of Angophora, Corymbia,
      Eucalyptus, Lophostemon and Melaleuca.
22.   All clearing of native vegetation shall be in accordance with Section 15 of the Nature
      Conservation (Koala) Conservation Plan 2006 requiring that clearing be undertaken in a way
      that complies with the sequential clearing conditions as specified in the relevant Section. The
      requirement shall ensure that koalas living in or near the clearing site have enough time to
      move out of the area without human intervention.
23.   No koalas shall be permitted to be captured or translocated from the site. A tree in which a
      koala is present, and any tree overlapping that tree, shall be left until the koala has moved
      from the tree of its own volition.
Fauna
24.   An experienced wildlife spotter shall be on site at all times during the clearing of any
      vegetation to ensure the survival of faunal species utilising the site as habitat.
Landscape Plans
25.   A Development Permit for Operational Works for landscaping shall be obtained prior to the
      commencement of any landscaping works. All detailed landscape plans for the development
      shall comply with the requirements of the landscaping conditions herein. To this extent the
      landscaping plans shall be prepared by a qualified Landscape Architect or qualified
      horticulturist.
26.   Landscaped areas shall be integrated floristically and structurally with the surrounding native
      vegetation. To be consistent with an ecologically sustainable design philosophy, all species
      located in landscape areas within the developed portion of the site shall be consistent with
      Council’s Landscaping Guidelines – Planning Scheme Policy PSP3.
27.   A Landscape Plan shall be prepared for all of the required building setback areas, including
      the buffer area at the frontage of the site adjacent to Noosa Drive. Where other permits for
      Operational Works for roads, drainage or access are required, the landscaping layout shall be
      based on approved drawings for those operational works. The detailed landscaping plans are
      to address:-


      27.1. Street tree planting to allow good shade canopy once fully mature to Noosa Drive;
                                                                                                4 of 19
