Cr Nugent asked if conditions were imposed for the protection of trees, the number of trees, their types and the condition they are in.
The Director Development Services advised restrictions can be placed in covenants on the land as well as restrictions for the ongoing management to protect trees, fines, court action and civil liability and that the conditions will vary through the different stages.
Cr Kidd stated that the site has been overplanted and that some of the trees marked for retention may not make it. He asked what happens in future if trees present a hazard to the house, drainage, sewer or water and whether that comes back on Council as we required the trees to be retained.
The Director Development Services stated that the onus is on the owner to maintain the trees, however the applicant can request approval to remove trees later if required.
Cr Kidd asked if the tree removal requirements were based on the diameter of the trunk.
The Director Development Services stated yes, 300mm.
Cr Duffy raised concerns regarding the hazard of any gum trees and how large and dangerous they may become.
Cr Nugent asked if the Manager City Presentation had discussed the issue of trees with the developer.
The Director Development Services stated yes, this had occurred.
Cr Turner asked what the difference was between the Torrens Title and Community Title subdivisions and why it was a staged development.
The Director Development Services stated that Torrens Title related to the ownership of individual lots while Community Title related to the shared areas such as the driveway. He also stated that the staging was the applicant’s choice.

Cr Whitton raised concerns regarding the removal of the requirement for a centre turning lane which was not now required because of the smaller floor space of the shop, however stated this did not have a bearing on the 20 bowsers and vehicles turning right into the premises. He further stated Lucknow should have a turning lane the whole way along and a reduction in the speed limit from 60kms/hr to 50kms/hr.
The Director Development Services stated that Council approved a consent in December 2018 for a larger development and a 200sqm convenience store. This application seeks to demolish and reinstall bowsers as well as a canopy and was deemed environmental works. The previous consent would be required to be surrendered.
The Meeting Closed at 7.36PM.
