    POLICY No 7 POLICY No 7 LANDSCAPING DOUGLAS SHIRE COUNCIL PLANNING SCHEME POLICY NO 7 Landscaping Intent The intent of this Policy is to specify landscaping procedures, design requirements and a Plant Species Schedule for developments which have landscaping requirements. This Policy should be read in conjunction with the Landscaping Code and other relevant parts of the Planning Scheme. Objectives The objectives of this Policy are: • to ensure high quality landscaping throughout the Shire; • to provide for a distinctive landscape character to develop in different Localities throughout the Shire; and • to establish guidelines which ensure high quality landscaping is provided and maintained as an important visual element which contributes to the landscape integrity of the Shire. Content This Landscaping Policy incorporates the following: • Landscape Procedures and Assessment; • Minimum Design Requirements for Development • Minimum Design Requirements for Reconfiguring a Lot • Landscape Zones in the Douglas Shire • Plant Species Schedule Information to be Provided Detailed Landscape Plans prepared by a suitably qualified professional drawn to scale, are to be submitted to the Council for assessment prior to the issue of a Building Permit. However, in the case of developments which are Code assessable or Impact assessable, a Landscape Plan is to be submitted with the Development Assessment Application. The Landscape Plan is to address the requirements set out in the Landscaping Code and to include: • the location, size, and species of existing vegetation; • vegetation to be retained and necessary protective measures; • any vegetation proposed to be removed; • existing and proposed surface levels; August, 2006 Page 48 • location of hard and soft landscaped areas; • the indicative location, number, size and species of plants; and • a Statement of Intent outlining the intent of each element of the Plan.

  • Species Selection Guidelines Tree Species Selection
    Species selection guidelines Tree species selection This section of the plan provides guidance around the selection of species for use as street trees in the Sunshine Coast Council area and includes region-wide street tree palettes for specific functions and settings. More specific guidance on signature and natural character palettes and lists of trees suitable for use in residential streets for each of the region's 27 Local plan areas are contained within Part B – Street tree strategies of the plan. Street tree palettes will be periodically reviewed as an outcome of street tree trials, the development of new species varieties and cultivars, or the advent of new pest or disease threats that may alter the performance and reliability of currently listed species. The plan is to be used in association with the Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual where guidance for tree stock selection (in line with AS 2303–2018 Tree stock for landscape use) and tree planting and maintenance specifications can be found. For standard advanced tree planting detail, maintenance specifications and guidelines for the selection of tree stock see also the Sunshine Coast Open Space Landscape Infrastructure Manual – Embellishments – Planting Landscape).

  • Report on the Vegetation of the Proposed Blue Hole Cultural, Environmental & Recreation Reserve
    Vegetation Report on the Proposed Blue Hole Cultural, Environmental & Recreation Reserve Report on the Vegetation of the Proposed Blue Hole Cultural, Environmental & Recreation Reserve 1.0 Introduction The area covered by this report is described as the proposed Lot 1 on SP144713; Parish of Alexandra; being an unregistered plan prepared by the C & B Group for the Douglas Shire Council. This proposed Lot has an area of 1.394 hectares and consists of the Flame Tree Road Reserve and part of a USL, which is a small portion of the bed of Cooper Creek. It is proposed that the Flame Tree Road Reserve and part of the USL be transferred to enable the creation of a Cultural, Environmental and Recreation Reserve to be managed in Trust by the Douglas Shire Council. The proposed Cultural, Environmental and Recreation Reserve will have an area of 1.394 hectares and will if the plan is registered become Lot 1 of SP144713; Parish of Alexandra; County of Solander. It is proposed that three Easements A, B & C over the proposed Lot 1 of SP144713 be created in favour of Lot 180 RP739774, Lot 236 RP740951, Lot 52 of SR537 and Lot 51 SR767 as per the unregistered plan SP 144715 prepared by the C & B Group for the Douglas Shire Council. 2.0 Trustee Details Douglas Shire Council 64-66 Front Street Mossman PO Box 357 Mossman, Qld, 4873 Phone: (07) 4099 9444 Fax: (07) 4098 2902 Email: [email protected] Internet: www.dsc.qld.gov.au 3.0 Description of the Subject Land The “Blue Hole” is a local name for a small pool in a section of Cooper Creek.

  • I Is the Sunda-Sahul Floristic Exchange Ongoing?
    Is the Sunda-Sahul floristic exchange ongoing? A study of distributions, functional traits, climate and landscape genomics to investigate the invasion in Australian rainforests By Jia-Yee Samantha Yap Bachelor of Biotechnology Hons. A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 Queensland Alliance for Agriculture and Food Innovation i Abstract Australian rainforests are of mixed biogeographical histories, resulting from the collision between Sahul (Australia) and Sunda shelves that led to extensive immigration of rainforest lineages with Sunda ancestry to Australia. Although comprehensive fossil records and molecular phylogenies distinguish between the Sunda and Sahul floristic elements, species distributions, functional traits or landscape dynamics have not been used to distinguish between the two elements in the Australian rainforest flora. The overall aim of this study was to investigate both Sunda and Sahul components in the Australian rainforest flora by (1) exploring their continental-wide distributional patterns and observing how functional characteristics and environmental preferences determine these patterns, (2) investigating continental-wide genomic diversities and distances of multiple species and measuring local species accumulation rates across multiple sites to observe whether past biotic exchange left detectable and consistent patterns in the rainforest flora, (3) coupling genomic data and species distribution models of lineages of known Sunda and Sahul ancestry to examine landscape-level dynamics and habitat preferences to relate to the impact of historical processes. First, the continental distributions of rainforest woody representatives that could be ascribed to Sahul (795 species) and Sunda origins (604 species) and their dispersal and persistence characteristics and key functional characteristics (leaf size, fruit size, wood density and maximum height at maturity) of were compared.
