    •     An additional approximately 130m² revegetation and rehabilitation area is proposed, incorporating native
          species and weed management to reinforce the coastal landscape character.

Relevant Plans: Element Design Sheets 03, 06 and 07.



Item 1(c) – Landscaping Treatments and Visual Amenity

    •     The proposed building has been repositioned further down the site to provide additional opportunities for
          landscape screening and buffering from surrounding public viewpoints.

    •     The building has also been realigned so that the principal access and openings face towards Sunshine
          Beach, away from nearby residential properties.

    •     The revised landscaping incorporates a combination of coastal native trees, shrubs and groundcovers to
          soften the building's appearance and reduce its visual prominence.

    •     These changes will improve screening from Webb Road, Duke Street, adjoining residential properties and
          public open space while maintaining the existing coastal character of the locality.

Relevant Plans: Revised Andrew Bock Architectural Plans dated 13 October 2026 and Element Design Sheets 01
and 03.



Item 1(d) – Retention and Integration of Existing Vegetation

    •     A detailed Tree Retention/Removal Plan has been prepared identifying existing vegetation proposed to be
          retained and vegetation requiring removal to accommodate the development.

    •     Existing vegetation will be retained wherever practicable and integrated with the proposed supplementary
          landscape planting.

    •     The proposed revegetation and rehabilitation works will further enhance the surrounding vegetation and
          provide continuity with the existing coastal landscape character.

Relevant Plans: Element Design Sheets 03, 04 and 07.



Item 1(e) – Landscape Establishment and Maintenance

    •     Detailed landscape specifications have been provided addressing planting methods, soil preparation,
          mulching, irrigation, plant establishment and maintenance.

    •     The landscape specifications require a 13-week establishment maintenance period, including watering,
          weed control, pruning and replacement of failed plant stock.

    •     The revegetation and rehabilitation plan includes ongoing weed management and measures to protect
          retained vegetation and promote successful establishment of native species.

Relevant Plans: Element Design Sheets 05, 06 and 07.
