Overlay Codes

Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions of Biodiversity, Waterways and
Wetlands Overlay Code

The new Lot boundaries created by the proposal transect areas cleared of treed
vegetation. The proposal has no impact upon the areas mapped as having
biodiversity significance, with the exception of a minor distance of the common
boundary between Lots 11 and 12 at the eastern end of the boundary.

This section of the boundary is generally clear of vegetation, as it is located at the
junction of 3 water supply pipelines and the existing driveway to the house (which is
the road formation of the original Lake Macdonald Drive).

A small section of the property located along the Lake Macdonald Drive frontage is
mapped as riparian buffer. This buffer is in relation to a water course located on the
opposite side of Lake Macdonald Drive. The formation and embankments of Lake
Macdonald Drive are located within the buffer area and they negate the values of the
land due to it being within the buffer area.

The proposal assists with the conservation of the sensitive areas and avoids any
fragmentation of the environmental values.

Specific Outcomes and Probable Solutions of Bushfire Hazard Overlay Code

The proposed Lot 11 contains an area designated as Moderate Bushfire Hazard
along the north-eastern boundary. The existing dwelling and the house site areas
are located outside of the hazard area and access to the road network is available for
the house site areas and the existing house. Therefore, the development does not
increase risk to people or increase the severity of any risks.
