the condition of a tree. The recommendations in this report are based on visual assessments and
external indicators and there is also some degree of subjectivity. This report is intended to be used
as a tool to assist the management of trees located within and surrounding the site. It should be
noted that any tree near any structure or property or person(s) poses a risk.

Introduction
1.1 Brief
The purpose of this report is to provide an assessment of significant trees located at and surrounding
proposed development at 49 Millbank Drive, Mount Eliza.
This report has been prepared by Constructive Arboriculture at the request of Fletcher Development
Consultants Pty Ltd and is based on the following instructions:
1. To inspect and document significant trees within and surrounding the proposed area of
construction.
2. To provide an objective appraisal of the trees regarding their health, structural stability and
suitability for retention.
3. To provide methods of protection for trees, where necessary, in the event of their retention.
4. To provide a list of native and indigenous vegetation to assist with selecting species for
proposed landscape plan.
2 Overview
The construction consisting of external addition to the rear of the existing dwelling and out-building
is proposed at 49 Millbank Drive, Mount Eliza.
A total of nine (9) trees were assessed for the purpose of this report. All trees assessed are located
within the site.
Tree protection measures have been provided for trees assessed, where necessary, in the event that
they are retained.
Several trees have been proposed for remvoal.
No neighbouring or Council trees are present within proximity to areas of proposed construction.

3 Vegetation survey
3.1 Site visit: Adam Hamilton of Constructive Arboriculture inspected the site on Saturday the 31st
of July, 2021.
3.2 Methodology
Each individually assessed tree has been allocated a unique number followed by an
alphabetical reference which identifies ownership and responsibility. S = Tree within site
boundaries, N = Tree on neighbouring property, C = Council tree.
All trees are assessed by visual observations made from ground level only and limited to
accessible components without dissection, excavation or probing. Height and canopy
spreads are estimated.
Trunk Diameter at Breast Height (DBH) is measured in metres at 1.4m above ground level;
multi-stemmed trees are measured immediately above the root flare.
Methodology of determining Health, Structure, Age, Retention Suitability and SULE has
been provided as an appendix (Appendix 2).
Photographs have been taken and are stored on file. They can be viewed upon request.

Poor Mature Native Low Ex This tree is located within the rear set-back of the site towards the north-eastern boundary. The tree is of below average health with poor structure and is not considered suitable for retention. The tree is listing considerably in a north-eastern direction. The tree's canopy s sparse and has died-back in parts. Trunk and basal decay are present. The tree is otherwise suitably distanced from areas of proposed construction.
Removal recommended. Permit required as per VPO1.
2-S Pittosporum tenuifolium Kohuhu
5 3 0.16 0.6 Below average
Fair Mature Exotic Low <10 This small tree is located within the rear set-back of the site towards the north-eastern boundary. Its removal is proposed to provide access to the rear of the site. The tree is of below average health with fair structure and possesses limited retention viability. Tip die-back of the tree's canopy is evident. Due to the tree's small stature and location at the rear of the site, its removal will not impact upon the streetscape.
The tree's remvoal is required to facilitate the construction proposal.
3-S Melaleuca styphelioides Prickly Paperbark
8 6 0.18 1.0 Fair Below average
Semi mature
Native Low <10 This tree is located within the rear set-back of the site towards the north-eastern boundary. Its removal is proposed to provide access to the rear of the site.

Exotic Low <20 This small tree is located within the rear set-back of the site. The tree is of fair health and structure. The construction proposal (ramp), located at its closest point approximately 2m from the base of the tree, will encroach upon approximately 1% of the tree's TPZ (2.4m); an encroachment not considered significant. The tree is suitably distanced from areas of proposed construction and will not be adversely impacted upon in the event that it is retained. Due to the existing conditions/constraints (heavily founded hard surfacing) between the tree and the proposed construction, tree protection fencing and/or ground protection will not be required. Minor canopy pruning (miner elevation of the tree's southern canopy aspect) will be required to provide clearance of the adjacent portion of construction.
Tree management considerations have been provided for this tree in the Tree Protection Schedule (section 4.3).

4 Vegetation protection survey
4.1 Overview
The survey includes trees assessed.
4.2 Protection zone determination
4.2.1 Structural Root Zone (SRZ): The SRZ is the critical area around a tree’s trunk required for tree stability. The measurement is
given in metres as a radius from the centre of a tree’s trunk and is calculated with reference to the Australian Standard – Protection of
trees on development sites AS 4970-2009.
4.2.2 Tree Protection Zone (TPZ): The Tree Protection Zone (TPZ) is the principal means of protecting trees on development sites.
The TPZ is a combination of the root area and crown area requiring protection. It is an area isolated from construction disturbance, so
that the tree remains viable. The measurement is given in metres as a radius from the centre of a tree’s stem at ground level and is
calculated with reference to the Australian Standard – Protection of trees on development sites AS 4970-2009.

4.4 Recommendations for methods of construction within TPZs
Proposed foundations (if encroaching upon greater that 10%) within the defined TPZs must consist of pier and
beam construction or other root sensitive construction methods, such as suspended slab or bridged footings.
Floor levels are to be elevated on piers to allow for oxygenation of the soil profile. Strip footings are to be
avoided within a tree’s defined TPZ.
Piers and/or supports must be selectively placed with consideration for any significant tree roots that may be
present within the soil profile. Minor excavation by hand to 0.5m deep should be undertaken at the points of
pier placements to determine if any significant roots are present. Roots greater than 40mm in diameter are
deemed significant. If such roots are encountered the positioning of the foundations supports must be altered
to provide at least 0.3m of clearance from the roots. An arborist is to be present when any excavation is
undertaken within the TPZs, or if any tree roots are uncovered. Any root pruning must be undertaken by a
qualified and experienced arborist.
Below-grade construction should not be undertaken within the defined SRZs of trees to be retained and must
not encroach upon more than 10% of a tree’s TPZ unless pre-existing site conditions negate the spread of a
tree’s root system.
Any underground services must be diverted around the trees’ TPZs where possible, suspended from the
undercarriage of the construction or laid beneath the root profile by method of directional boring.
Internal paths and driveways must be constructed above grade where located within a tree’s defined TPZ, and
must consist of permeable materials of a pH neutral composition.

5 Tree Protection Plan
5.1 Site meeting: It is recommended that a pre development site meeting takes place for the purpose of tree
protection awareness, which should be attended by the following people:
Arboricultural Consultant
Clients (Developers) Site Manager/Foreman
Clients Architect and Landscape Architect
Local Authority Tree Officer
Local Authority Planning Officer
5.2 Establishment of Tree Protection Zones (TPZs):
5.2.1 The protective fencing barriers must be established prior to any site clearance, soil grading or demolition
work taking place and before the following:
Contractor’s site occupancy
Plant and materials delivery
Demolition of any existing structures
Construction phase of works
Utility services installation
Recommended tree removal and pruning
5.2.2 The area within the TPZs is to be regarded of high importance and tree protection fencing shall not be
taken down or relocated at any time without the prior documented approval of the arboricultural consultant or
local authority arborist, unless this has already been agreed as part of the planning application consent process
and is documented. A layer of organic mulch 10 – 15cm thick should be spread over tree protection zones.
5.2.3 The fencing shall comprise of interlocked wire mesh panels, well braced by attachment to a scaffolding
framework by means of wires or scaffold clamps. It should have top and bottom horizontal bars, with uprights
set into the ground or concrete supports at no greater interval than 3m spacing. For larger lengths of tree
protection fencing angled bars should be located behind the fencing to act as braces and should be firmly
clamped to the top rail and set into the ground, braced as necessary; these shall be spaced at intervals no greater
than 6m. All-weather notices should be erected on tree protection fencing with words such as “Tree Protection
Zone Keep Out”.
5.2.4 Inside the TPZs which are defined by the line of protective fencing, the following should NOT occur:
Mechanical digging or grading
Storage of plant equipment and materials
Vehicular or plant access
Fire lighting or burning off (should be maintained at more than 20m from any canopy edge)
Refuelling of machinery, discharge or spillage of any chemical substance
Construction of hard surfaces
5.2.5 In accordance with water restrictions supplementary watering should be provided to the trees through
any dry periods during and after the construction process on a weekly basis when required.
5.2.6 Consideration should be given for appropriate cultural operations. These may include irrigation, or
measures to enhance the soil structure and organic nitrogen levels. This should be made the responsibility of
landscape contractors and supervised by a qualified horticulturalist.

6 Post development vegetation management 6.1 Existing trees
6.1.1 Trees growing on a site before development takes place may, if adversely affected, be in decline over a
period of several years before they die. This varies greatly depending on the age, species and condition of
individual tree, soil conditions, climate and the extent of damage incurred during construction. A program of
inspections and necessary work for the treatment of symptoms as they develop should be undertaken in
conjunction with an arborist. This program may include recommendations for frequency of inspection and
beneficial tree work.

Appendix 4 – Common Terms
Canopy: The part of the crown composed of leaves and small twigs.
Central leader: The main stem or bole of the tree.
Co-dominant: Equal in size and relative importance, usually associated with either trunks or scaffold branches
in the crown.
Crown: The leaves and branches of a tree measured from the lowest branch on the trunk to the top of the tree.

establishing Tree Protection Zones (TPZs) for vegetation to be retained.
Dieback: Progressive death of twigs and small branches, generally from tip to base.
Drip line: The width of the crown, as measured by the lateral extent of the foliage.
Epicormic growth: Branch development that arises from latent or adventitious buds that occur on stems and
branches and as suckers produced at the base of the tree.
Grading: Altering natural terrain and elevation of land, usually through the action of large equipment.
Included Bark: Pattern of development at branch junction where bark is turned inward rather than pushed out.
SULE: Safe Useful Life Expectancy.
