6.13 Miscellaneous
Garbage Bins
13) Provide an on-site garbage/recycling bin storage area which is not visible from the street located
for a short and convenient route between the dwelling and the collection point. In Small Lot
Housing Areas, garbage collection will generally occur of laneways.
Run-off and Erosion
14) Run-off and erosion controls must be implemented to prevent soil erosion, water pollution or the
discharge of loose sediment on the surrounding land by:
a) diverting uncontaminated run-off around cleared or disturbed areas, and
b) erecting a silt fence to prevent debris escaping into drainage systems and waterways, and
c) preventing tracking of sediment by vehicles onto roads, and
d) stockpiling top soil, excavated materials, construction and landscaping supplies and debris
within the lot.
Drainage
15) All stormwater drainage collecting as a result of the erection of, or alterations or additions to, a
dwelling house or ancillary development must be generally consistent with the approved
Edmondson Park Water Cycle Management Strategy and be conveyed by appropriate means to:
a) a public drainage system, or
b) an inter-allotment drainage system, or
c) an on-site disposal system.
All stormwater drainage systems within a lot and the connection to a public or an inter-allotment
drainage system must be approved under section 68 of the Local Government Act 1993.
Removal or Pruning of Trees
16) The removal or pruning of a tree or other vegetation that is:
a) within 3 metres of the proposed development, and
b) less than 6 metres high, and
c) not listed on a significant tree register or register of significant trees kept by the council,
can be undertaken as complying development.
17) Retain, where possible, all habitat trees, particularly, large hollow bearing trees, nest trees, and
trees important for multiple ecological objectives.
18) Where earthworks necessitate the removal of existing trees, compliance with this DCP must be
achieved.
Protecting Adjoining Walls
19) If the development involves the erection of a wall to a boundary and on the adjoining property
there is a wall that is within 0.9m of the boundary, the new wall must be built in accordance with
the method of support proposed by a professional engineer’s report provided with the application
for the CDC.
