    2 Instructions

    2.1 The instructions provided to Treemap Arboriculture on 12/07/16 by Melbourne Water were to provide an Arboricultural assessment and report that examines trees located within a variety of land parcels associated with the South Eastern Outfall pipeline, Rosebud.

    2.2 The instructions were to provide details on each tree using standard arboricultural assessment fields. The detail collected would typically provide information that allows a range of tree management decisions and activities to be implemented.

    3 Introduction

    3.1 The managers of the subject site are undertaking investigations and a review of the trees on the land. As part of the review process, the managers are examining the vegetation located on or near the site. This report examines the arboricultural matters associated with this vegetation.

    3.2 Most arboricultural tree assessments utilise the fields and assessment guidelines provided within AS4970-2009 (Australian Standard – Protection of trees on development sites). The tree assessment and following report would be defined as a ‘Preliminary assessment and arboricultural report’. The standard indicates that the information in this type of report can ‘be used by planners, architects and designers to finalise the design layout to facilitate the retention of suitable trees’.

    3.3 The site and land parcels under review are located to the south of Rosebud town centre. The land was originally purchased in the late 1960’s for the creation of the South Eastern Outfall pipeline which conveys treated effluent from Bangholme to Gunnamatta where it is discharged. The pipe was assembled under the natural surface in 1974 via the open cut method (open cut excavated by machine).

    3.4 The site under review was comprised of a number of separate property parcels as follows:

    15 Herman Street, Rosebud 41 Herman Street, Rosebud 1-11 Leura Crescent, Rosebud 53 Herman Street, Rosebud 55-57 Herman Street, Rosebud 59 Herman Street, Rosebud 318 Bayview Road, Rosebud 341 Bayview Road, Rosebud 343 Bayview Road, Rosebud 345 Bayview Road, Rosebud 14 Cook Avenue, Rosebud 181-183 Jetty Road, Rosebud 226 Jetty Road, Rosebud 228 Jetty Road, Rosebud

    4 Key Objectives

    4.1 To undertake a general assessment of trees located on or near the subject site.

    4.2 To provide an assessment of the subject trees with respect to their overall condition, structure, safety, value and suitability for preservation.

    4.3 To provide recommendations on the suitability of the trees for removal or retention, and provide general guidelines for tree protection.

    5 Executive summary

    5.1 Four hundred and sixty nine (469) individual trees were examined as part of the site review. The individual tree assessments included 450 trees on the subject site, 12 street trees and 7 neighbouring trees.

    5.2 The subject site contained predominantly native trees. The individual tree assessment identified 336 indigenous trees or large shrubs.

    5.3 Almost 75% of the assessed trees and shrubs were locally indigenous species and a further 14% were Victorian native or Australian native species. The 15 most frequently recorded species (of the 40 species identified) accounted for nearly 92% of all individual trees examined in the survey.

    Species No. of trees % *Leptospermum laevigatum 179 38.17% Eucalyptus viminalis 83 17.70% *Pinus radiata 48 10.23% Eucalyptus ovata 26 5.54% *Melaleuca armillaris 18 3.84% *Acacia longifolia 14 2.99% Banksia integrifolia 14 2.99% *Pittosporum undulatum 9 1.92% *Acacia longifolia var. sophorae

    *denotes woody weed species

    5.4 The assessed trees were assigned a retention value rating. This rating combines tree condition factors with functional and aesthetic characteristics in the context of a semi-urbanised landscape. The retention or preservation of trees may not depend solely on arboricultural considerations; therefore, the ratings may act as a guide to assist in decisions relating to tree management and tree retention.

    All of the trees that were assigned a ‘Moderate’ retention value rating were indigenous specimens of Eucalyptus viminalis, E. pryoriana and E. ovata, or specimens of Banksia integrifolia (Coast Banksia). The trees in the ‘Moderate’ category were typically larger trees ranging between 15-20m in height. The ‘Low’ retention value category includes 173 Leptospermum laevigatum (Coast Tea-tree), which could legitimately be placed in the ‘None’ category because of their environmental weed status.

    5.5 The future management of the trees across the site can be assisted by interrogating the tree assessment detail provided in this report. ‘Moderate’ retention value trees would be considered the most significant arboricultural elements in the study area. Trees that have been assigned a ‘Low’ retention value were typically in poor condition, or small in size. Trees assigned a retention value of ‘None’ would generally be removed because they were in very poor condition, or they are generally considered to be environmental woody weeds.

    6 Method

    6.1 Site and tree inspections were conducted on Monday 2nd and Tuesday 3rd August, 2016.

    6.2 The tree assessment consisted of a visual inspection of each tree that was located within the study area (as indicated on the feature survey plan and specified by the client).

    6.3 The tree assessment consisted of a visual inspection, which was undertaken with regard to modern arboricultural principles and practices. The assessment did not involve a detailed examination of below ground or internal tree parts. The assessment was undertaken from the ground of the subject site to determine tree condition and species type. Measurements were taken to establish trunk and crown dimensions. No tree samples or site soil samples were taken unless specified. Trunk diameters for trees on adjoining properties may be estimated due to site access limitations.

    6.4 Specific tree details were recorded for each tree during the assessment. The following fields were populated for each of the individually assessed trees.

    Tree assessment fields Field Description No. Unique number Species Botanic name of tree Common Name Common name as occurs in current Australian horticultural literature DBH (cm) Diameter measured at Breast Height (1.4m above ground) TPZ (m) Tree Protection Zone calculated using DBH (AS4970) SRZ (m) Structural Root Zone calculated using modified DBH (AS4970) HxW Height and width of tree canopy in metres Age Broad age class of tree Health Broad class of the health and vigour of the tree Structure Broad class of the structure and stability of the tree ULE Useful Life Expectancy – estimate of useful life remaining Form Symmetry of tree canopy Comment Additional comment that may provide specific detail on the condition of the tree or

    management requirements Tree Type Origin and type of tree species Retention Value Qualitative rating that combines tree condition factors with functional and aesthetic

    characteristics in the context of an urban landscape. The retention or preservation of trees may not depend solely on arboricultural considerations; therefore, the ratings may act as a guide to assist in decisions relating to tree management and retention.

    6.5 Design of field survey form

    A field data collection form was designed using ESRI Arcpad software. The field survey form contained the fields indicated at section 6.4.

    6.6 Field survey approach

    The field survey was conducted with a qualified arborist (AQF – Level 5) who undertook the mapping and collection of tree details.

    GPS mapping for any additional trees This included a combination of GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite System) real time differentially corrected point positions referenced with orthorectified aerial imagery on a mobile GIS (Geographic Information System) platform called Arcpad.

    Tree point accuracies range from 0.3m to 1.0m. The coordinate positions of each tree are submitted as eastings and northings in Map Grid of Australia 1994 - Grid Coordinates (MGA94, Zone 55).

    Tree inspections conducted using Visual Tree Assessment (VTA). Visual tree assessment (VTA) was put forward by Mattheck & Breloer (1996). The principle of this assessment approach is that a visual tree inspection from the ground is sufficiently detailed in its approach to identify the majority of tree defects or symptoms of defects. The assessment approach recommends more detailed examinations if the visual inspection reveals defects that cannot be determined fully from the visual inspection.

    Mattheck & Breloer (1996) indicate that the method provides failure criteria with biomechanics as the cornerstone. Practitioners would need to refer to the work of Mattheck & Breloer (1996) to understand the intricacies of the method. If a defect is confirmed, it may be measured, or further diagnostic work undertaken, for example testing the strength of the defective tree part, root plate investigation, or pathogen identification.

    VTA and the general concept of visually assessing trees has broad acceptance in the industry of Arboriculture.

    Tree stability and structure inspection process Inspecting a tree to determine its stability involves observations of multiple tree components. Kim Coder (1990) developed an inspection process that illustrates and indicates the major components of a tree that may require evaluation when assessing tree stability and structure. The method places more importance on certain sections of the tree, relative to other sections. This approach assists with focusing attention and ranking observed defects. It can also be used as a means of structuring the tree inspection process.

    It is noted that this assessment procedure places emphasis on the bottom one metre of the tree trunk and the metre or so of soil and roots immediately around the base of the trunk.

    The following section indicates the zoned approach adopted by the system.

    o ZONE 1: STEM / ROOT BASE (4 feet up and out) -- Bottom four feet of main stem and zone of rapid taper (ZRT) in roots stretching out four feet. No Compromise -- No Doubt.

    o ZONE 2: MAIN STEM (up to live crown and base of scaffold branches). o ZONE 3: PRIMARY ROOT SUPPORT (out to 1/2 the drip line). o ZONE 4: PRIMARY BRANCH SUPPORT (major branch base area plus the basal 1/3

    of their length). Faults in zones two, three, and four are correctable with large inputs of time, money, materials and technical maintenance. Corrective measures may represent a notification of problems.

    o ZONE 5: REMAINDER OF WOODY ROOTS (out to 1.5 times the dripline). o ZONE 6: REMAINDER OF CROWN Zones five and six are not of primary structural

    concern but any faults still represent significant risks.

    6.7 A feature survey plan was provided by the client (Plan of Feature and Level Survey prepared by Taylors, Ref No. 20303_3_S1_D001 and dated Jan-Feb 2015). The assessed trees have been numbered on these plans (Appendix 3a - 3h). The detail provided at Appendix 3a - 3h has also been provided to the client in Autocad format with Tree Protection Zones and Structural Root Zones for planning and design assistance.

    7 Observations

    7.1 The site under review presented as a variety of separate land parcels, and in combination they measure approximately 5.6 hectares. The site is bordered by a variety of roads and residential allotments. The following property addresses in the study area contained trees that were assessed individually:

    15 Herman Street, Rosebud 41 Herman Street, Rosebud 1-11 Leura Crescent, Rosebud 53 Herman Street, Rosebud 55-57 Herman Street, Rosebud 59 Herman Street, Rosebud 318 Bayview Road, Rosebud 341 Bayview Road, Rosebud

    343 Bayview Road, Rosebud 345 Bayview Road, Rosebud 14 Cook Avenue, Rosebud 181-183 Jetty Road, Rosebud 226 Jetty Road, Rosebud 228 Jetty Road, Rosebud

    7.2 Four hundred and sixty nine (469) individual trees were examined as part of the site review.

    The individual tree assessments included 450 trees on the subject site, 12 street trees and 7 neighbouring trees. The detail collected for each individual tree assessment is provided in table format at Appendix 1. Tree numbers within the assessment table correspond to those numbers provided on the modified feature plan (Appendix 3a-3h).

    7.3 The subject site contained mostly native trees. The individual tree assessment identified 336 indigenous tree or large shrubs.

    *denotes woody weed species

    7.5 The tree survey and assessment for the site has examined the larger and more significant trees and shrubs. However, the tree survey was guided and influenced by the detail provided in the feature survey provide. A large number of shrub-sized plants have not been included in this assessment because they were not collected in the feature survey. The site was heavily populated with Leptospermum laevigatum (Coast Tea-tree) and 179 individual specimens were recorded in the survey. However, the parcel of land at 14 Cook Avenue was dense with this species along with the eastern section of 181-183 Jetty Road, Rosebud. There may be as many as 300 individual specimens of this species across these 2 properties. There were also numerous shrub-sized species of Acacia longifolia var. sophorae (Coast Wattle), Acacia longifolia (Sallow Wattle), Callistemon spp. (Bottlebrush) and Pittosporum undulatum (Sweet Pittosporum) and other weed species scattered across the properties and these shrubs or weeds were not individually assessed as part of this study.

    7.6 The following list summarises the type and origin of trees recorded during the assessment.

    Tree type/origin No. of trees %Indigenous 351 74.84% Exotic conifer 49 10.45% Victorian native 40 8.53% Australian native 23 4.90% Exotic evergreen 4 0.85% Exotic deciduous 2 0.43%

    7.7 An analysis was undertaken of the individual tree assessment fields collected as part of the survey (as tabled at Appendix 1). The following results provide a summary and overview of the survey findings with regard to specific fields.

    Age No. of trees Semi-mature 163 Maturing 306

    Health No. of trees Fair 161 Fair to Poor 236 Poor 42 Very Poor 15 Dead 15

    Structure No. of trees Fair 64 Fair to Poor 133 Poor 249 Very poor 12 Failed 11

    ULE No. of trees 50+ years 0 30 to 50 years 36 15 to 30 years 138 5 to 15 years 197 1 to 5 years 66 0 years 32

    7.8 The assessed trees were assigned a retention value rating. This rating combines tree

    condition factors with functional and aesthetic characteristics in the context of a semi-urbanised landscape. The retention or preservation of trees may not depend solely on arboricultural considerations; therefore, the ratings may act as a guide to assist in decisions relating to tree management and tree retention.

    Retention value No. of trees High 0 Moderate 33 Low 301 None 135

    All of the trees that were assigned a ‘Moderate’ retention value rating were indigenous specimens of Eucalyptus viminalis, E. pryoriana and E. ovata, or specimens of Banksia integrifolia (Coast Banksia). The trees in the ‘Moderate’ category were typically larger trees ranging between 15-20m in height. The ‘Low’ retention value category includes 173 Leptospermum laevigatum (Coast Tea-tree), which could legitimately be placed in the ‘None’ category because of their environmental weed status.

    7.9 The site is influenced by a variety of planning overlays that apply to trees. A Mornington Peninsula Shire Vegetation Protection Overlay (VPO) and Schedule 1 to the Overlay (VPO1) influence all of the properties. This is based on a planning property report for the site being

    Indicates an established landscape cohort

    Indicates that the overall health of the assessed trees was below average

    Indicates that the overall structure of the assessed trees was biased towards poor structure. This result is influenced by the high proportion of Leptospermum laevigatum that were assigned a poor structure rating.

    Indicates a poor range and diversity of life expectancies, with a low proportion of trees expected to survive beyond 30 years

    obtained from www.dtpli.vic.gov.au/planning on 10/08/16. The schedule to the Vegetation Protection Overlay states:

    A permit is required to remove, destroy or lop any vegetation, except for:

    The removal of vegetation carried out in conjunction with a development approved under a planning permit and in accordance with an endorsed plan.

    The removal of vegetation necessary for the construction of a dwelling, dwelling extension or outbuilding where no planning permit is required and provided that:

    o A building permit has been granted for the proposed development. o Vegetation is only removed from the building footprint or within 2 metres of the

    proposed building.

    o No tree with a trunk circumference greater than 0.35 metres is removed within 6 metres of a road frontage.

    The removal of vegetation to enable the formation of a single crossing and access driveway with a maximum width of 3.7 metres.

    The removal of vegetation which presents an immediate risk of personal injury or damage to property including the culling of single trees located within 3 metres of a dwelling or outbuilding, or which overhangs a boundary line.

    The removal of any dead timber or branch which has occurred through natural circumstances, fire or the spread of noxious weeds.

    The removal of any tree or branch of a tree which impairs the access of motor vehicles along any existing or approved access track, provided that such access track has a width no greater than 3.7 metres.

    The maintenance of landscaping, including pruning, which does not effect the stability, general form and viability of the vegetation.

    The removal of vegetation that has been established for less than 10 years and which is not required as landscaping under a planning approval.

    An application for permit must be accompanied by a vegetation management plan clearly indicating:

    All existing vegetation on the site, the extent and purpose of proposed vegetation removal and the species, density and location of trees and other vegetation to be planted.

    The location of any watercourse on the property, and, if relevant, the location of areas where the ground slope exceeds 20 percent.

    Where it is proposed to relocate a building, the application must specify the intended access route and provide an assessment of the vegetation impact, both on the site and on road reserves, including any proposed replanting.

    7.10 A Mornington Peninsula Shire Environmental Significance Overlay (ESO) and Schedule 17 to

    the Overlay (ESO17) predominantly apply to the following 2 parcels of land:

    41 Herman Street, Rosebud 1-11 Leura Crescent, Rosebud

    Schedule 17 to the Environmental Significance Overlay (ESO17) does not contain any specific permit requirements relating to vegetation, but the Environmental Significance Overlay states:

  • Arboricultural report for South Eastern Outfall Land, Rosebud

    ©TREEMAP 2016 August Page 5 of 11

    A permit is required to:

    Remove, destroy or lop any vegetation, including dead vegetation. This does not apply:

    o If a schedule to this overlay specifically states that a permit is not required. o If the table to Clause 42.01-3 specifically states that a permit is not required. o To the removal, destruction or lopping of native vegetation in accordance with a

    native vegetation precinct plan specified in the schedule to Clause 52.16.

    The decision guidelines under Schedule 17 to the Environmental Significance Overlay (ESO17) also state:

    Whether substantial change or detriment will be caused to soil stability, vegetation, water quality or habitat values of the streamline.

    7.11 Trees that are native to Victoria will be influenced specifically by Clause 52.17 (Native vegetation) of the planning scheme where each property parcel is larger than 0.4ha. This clause has particular obligations and requirements relating to indigenous trees.

    7.12 Native vegetation is defined as ‘Plants that are indigenous to Victoria, including trees, shrubs, herbs, and grasses’ under the Definitions of the State Planning provisions – Clause 72.

    7.13 The various planning controls relating to vegetation indicate that all of the vegetation on the land would require a permit for removal. This is a specific requirement under VPO1. Furthermore, the requirements of Clause 52.17 (Native vegetation) could also have application requirements regarding native indigenous trees on parcels of land greater than 0.4ha, which is the case for a proportion of the land parcels.

    7.14 There is a variety of planning application requirements in relation to the trees because of the various planning controls that relate to vegetation. One factor that is considered under the VPO1 is the value and quality of the vegetation. The general condition of the vegetation on the site is relatively poor, from an arboricultural perspective. Large numbers of indigenous trees on the site were dead, dying or defective and a large proportion of indigenous trees on the site have been assigned ‘Low’ retention values. Only 33 trees or 7% of the assessed trees were assigned a retention value of better than ‘Low’, using arboricultural criteria. Furthermore, a large proportion of the assessed trees are considered environmental weeds.

    7.15 The previous statement requires some clarification in relation to the planning controls that apply to the property. The broader population of trees is in poor arboricultural condition, and the vast majority of trees could not be sustained or maintained within a developed landscape. However, the majority of assessed trees are also native indigenous trees and they will need to be examined and assessed for other values such as their environmental or ecological value.

    7.16 The assessment of trees for their environmental or ecological value may result in obligations that are required to offset the loss of trees for development purposes. These offsets and obligations may eventuate regardless of the individual condition or weed status of trees. These obligations would need to be assessed and reviewed by a suitably qualified ecologist to appreciate the level of these requirements.

    ©TREEMAP 2016 August Page 6 of 11

    7.17 As discussed earlier, a large proportion of the assessed trees and shrubs are generally considered to be environmental weeds. The following species are listed as weeds in the 2012 Mornington Peninsula Shire Council Brochure ‘Noxious & Environmental Weeds & Plant Pathogens of the Mornington Peninsula.

    Species No of trees Acacia floribunda 1 Acacia longifolia 14 Acacia longifolia var. sophorae 7 Acacia saligna 4 Chamaecytisus palmensis 4 Hakea salicifolia 4 Melaleuca armillaris 18 Pinus radiata 48 Pittosporum undulatum 9 109

    It would be unusual for the local authority to refuse an application to remove environmental weeds, but there is no exemption provided for weeds under Schedule 1 to the VPO.

    7.18 In addition to the weeds listed above, the Weed Management Strategy for the Mornington

    Peninsula Shire Council (prepared by the Keith Turnbull Research Institute, Ballarto Road, Frankston on behalf of Agriculture Victoria Services Pty Ltd, February 2003) also lists Leptospermum laevigatum as an environmental weed (179 recorded trees in survey and a further 300 trees of this species not recorded across site). In combination, the number of recorded environmental weeds across the site equates to nearly two thirds of all assessed trees.

    7.19 There are also exemptions that apply under Clause 52.48 of the Victoria Planning Provisions (Bushfire Protection: Exemptions) in relation to vegetation controls. Trees that are situated within 10m of an existing dwelling and within 4m of the property boundary may be exempt from any permit requirements. This exemption would apply to a large proportion of the vegetation on the site because many of the assessed trees were located near land parcel boundaries.

    7.20 A further factor to be considered, in terms of site design and planning, is the potential impact of any design towards trees on adjoining land. An obvious constraint will be any trees located on adjoining land that are close to the property boundary of the subject site. The Tree Protection Zone clearance requirements for neighbouring trees will range from 2m to 15m depending on the trunk diameter measurements for individual trees. The street trees along roads bordering the various land parcels will also need consideration in this regard. The tree survey in this report does not provide a comprehensive survey or assessment of street trees or neighbouring trees near the site.

    8 Discussion

    Tree assessments involving this quantity of trees typically reveals a range of trees with differing attributes for health, structure and overall value. Some trees may be considered insignificant for their size, age, species type or condition, but they might still be considered suitable for retention because they are located conveniently on the site, or because they have been planted as a group for a specific purpose. The individual value and attributes of the individual tree may be less than the overall value provided by the collective more broadly.

    Conversely, some individual trees may be exceptional for various reasons but there may be no scope for their retention because of their location, and other site constraints that might affect the land. One of the main objectives of the tree assessment is to determine those trees that would be preferable, in terms of preservation, and to identify poor or less valuable trees that may easily be replaced, or replaced with more desirable species.

    The arborist must also exercise judgement and expertise with respect to the types of trees that are deemed suitable for preservation, and they should also consider the stage of the tree in its overall lifecycle.

    The vegetation planning controls that influence any parcel of land are a major factor for allowing property owners to determine the constraints or opportunities presented by existing vegetation. When a property is influenced by specific vegetation controls with clear criteria and decision guidelines, it is easy to identity what trees might be considered by council with respect to enforcing tree preservation or permitting tree removal. The broad nature of the specific vegetation control that applies to this site implies that council wants to examine any or all proposed vegetation removal, and it is difficult to predict their position.

    The variety and broad nature of vegetation controls that apply to the various parcels of land will probably result in the local authority having a significant role in the final development outcomes for the site. However, it is also true that the parcels of land are generally bordered by residential style properties and residential zoning would seem likely. There is a degree of inevitability that the land will eventually be developed for residential style purposes, and this would ultimately result in the fragmentation and or removal of native vegetation across the site.

    This being said, the retention of trees that are desirable species, and in good condition, can provide benefits towards a completed residential style development.

    The interpretation of the planning controls that apply to the site are further complicated by the exemptions that apply under Clause 52.48 of the Victoria Planning Provisions (Bushfire Protection: Exemptions) and the high number of weeds that are present across the individual properties. Furthermore, the influence of Clause 52.17 (Native vegetation) only applies to native indigenous trees on parcels of land greater than 0.4ha. Considering the complex interactions of these various planning controls and exemptions, it would be far simpler to utilise the arboricultural assessment retention values as a means of determining what trees should be considered for retention.

    The simplest way to interrogate and action the detail collected as part of this assessment is to filter the tree records on the basis of their assigned tree retention values. The most significant trees on the site, from an arboricultural perspective, are the relatively small number of trees that received a ‘Moderate’ retention value (33 trees across the various land parcels).

    The next group of trees that might be considered for retention is the 233 trees that were assigned a ‘Low’ retention value and a recommendation of ‘Could be retained’. This group contained trees that were either; in poorer condition, were less desirable species, or they were trees that were small and easily replaceable. If the species Leptospermum laevigatum were removed from this category (because of its environmental weed status), the total number of trees

    in the ‘Low’ retention value ‘Could be retained’ category would be reduced to 87 trees. Some of the smaller trees in this category may grow to become more significant trees, and their retention value may subsequently be upgraded. The trees that have longer term value would generally be assigned a longer Useful Life Expectancy in the survey detail and it would also be generally preferable to retain indigenous species amongst this category (Appendix 1).

    ‘Low’ retention value trees that were in poor condition were assigned a shorter life expectancy and some 26 trees have been recommended for removal within this category. Poor structure was the primary reason for recommending removal for the majority of the trees in this category.

    There were 131 trees that were assigned a retention value of ‘None’. This group included dead trees, trees in very poor condition and tree species that are generally recognised as woody weeds or environmental weeds. Under normal best practice management, trees that are assigned a retention value of ‘None’ would be removed and replaced regardless of any proposed site changes. The species Leptospermum laevigatum could technically be included in this category, which would add a further 179 surveyed trees.

    8.1 Tree protection zones

    Where works are proposed in the vicinity of trees, the level of encroachment and the impact to specific trees can be estimated by comparing standard or modified tree protection clearances with those clearances provided to trees in the design. The overall impact towards any given tree will be based on the severity of encroachment into the respective tree protection zones. The degree of root activity in the tree protection zone can vary significantly (because of existing structures or obstructions), which can result in more or less severe impacts to trees. It is often difficult to accurately determine the level of root activity in these zones and root investigations are generally impractical. The alternative to undertaking root investigations is to assign appropriate tree protection zones.

    This report adopts AS4970-2009, Australian Standard – Protection of trees on development sites as the preferred tree protection method. The method provides a tree protection zone and a tree protection fencing distance (radial measurement from trunk centre) by using the width of the trunk at 1.4m above ground multiplied by 12. The prescribed TPZ distances are provided for each tree in Appendix 1 and they have been provided in GIS and Autocad format as part of the report submission.

    There is scope under the standard to reduce the tree protection zone area by 10% without any further investigations. The rationale for any reduced tree protection distance (as may be necessary for some trees) is detailed in AS4970-2009 (Australian Standard – Protection of trees on development sites). Under encroachment Type A, it is acceptable to reduce the Tree Protection Zone (TPZ) area by 10%. This translates to a reduction in radial clearance distance of approximately 33% on one side of the tree only. This can be applied if there is contiguous space around the tree for root development to occur. The following diagram (from AS4970-2009) is provided to illustrate the approach.

    9 Recommendations

    9.1 The tree assessment and report provides a condition snapshot and landscape composition of the trees located on the review site. The survey detail collected provides an opportunity for the site managers to address the management of individual trees, and it may lend support to decisions regarding the future composition of the landscape. The detail provided at Appendix 1 can be interrogated to implement a management program, or to assist with planning and design issues.

    9.2 The broad nature of vegetation controls that apply to the site are complicated by exemptions that apply under Clause 52.48 of the Victoria Planning Provisions (Bushfire Protection: Exemptions), plus there is a large number of environmental weeds present across the individual properties. Furthermore, the influence of Clause 52.17 (Native vegetation) only applies to native indigenous trees on parcels of land greater than 0.4ha, and it is difficult to determine how the individual land parcels might be considered in this respect. Considering the complex interactions of these various planning controls, interpretations and exemptions, it would appear simpler and more informative to revert to the arboricultural assessment retention values as a means of determining what trees could or should be considered for retention from an arboricultural perspective.

    9.3 The following 33 trees were assigned a ‘Moderate’ retention value and they should be considered for retention:

    Tree 45, 54, 58, 62, 77, 110, 116, 124, 136, 143, 144, 152, 158, 161, 166, 167, 173, 215, 222, 234, 245, 312, 313, 319, 326, 389, 390, 392, 393, 394, 407, 413, 464

    The plans at Appendix 3a - 3d show all of the assessed trees and their Tree Protection Zones. The plans at Appendix 3e – 3h highlight the Tree Protection Zone for ‘Moderate’ retention value trees and trees in the ‘Low’ retention value ‘Could be retained’ category.

    9.4 The following 87 trees were assigned a ‘Low’ retention value and they received a recommendation of ‘Could be retained’. This group contained trees that were either; in poor condition, undesirable species, or trees that were small and easily replaceable. Trees in this category do not generally deserve design modifications or adjustments to assist with their retention because this effort would generally be considered disproportionate to their value. However, if there is scope to easily retain trees from this category in the design, this should be considered. A large proportion of trees in this group are indigenous trees that might be

    9.5 The following 35 ‘Low’ retention value trees were in poor condition and they are recommended

    for removal. Poor structure was the primary reason for recommending removal for the majority of the trees in this category.

    Tree 2, 3, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 20, 21, 25, 26, 36, 40, 41, 42, 50, 78, 84, 129, 131, 164, 165, 193, 212, 233, 237, 248, 249, 251, 256, 327, 329, 404, 416, 448

    9.6 The following 295 trees were assigned a retention value of ‘None’ or ‘Low (none)’ in the specific case of the species Leptospermum laevigatum. This group included dead trees, trees in very poor condition and tree species that are recognised as woody or environmental weeds. Under normal best practice management, trees that are assigned a retention value of ‘None’ would be removed and replaced regardless of any proposed site changes.

    11 Definitions

    The TPZ and SRZ are defined in AS4970-2009, Australian Standard – Protection of trees on development sites as: Tree protection zone (TPZ) A specified area above and below ground and at a given distance from the trunk set aside for the protection of a tree’s roots and crown to provide for the viability and stability of a tree to be retained where it is potentially subject to damage by development. Structural root zone (SRZ) The area around the base of a tree required for the tree’s stability in the ground. The woody root growth and soil cohesion in this area are necessary to hold the tree upright. The SRZ is nominally circular with the trunk at its centre and is expressed by its radius in metres. This zone considers a tree’s structural stability only, not the root zone required for a tree’s vigour and long-term viability, which will usually be a much larger area.
