Development Application – Alterations to an approved Tree Grinding Facility (non-conforming use) – Lot 102, 766 King Road, Oldbury

Background

The Shire has received a Development Application for Alterations to an approved Tree Grinding Facility (non-conforming use).

 On 23 February 2015, Council approved a development application described as a ‘Tree Grinding Facility’ (‘Light Industry’ and ‘Transport Depot’) at the subject site. The development involved the receival of green waste and pallets for processing (80% of material from pruning and removal of trees and 20% of untreated timber pallets).

 As proposed, the Tree Grinding Facility would remain, however would be reduced in area. A ‘Transport Depot’ independent to the Tree Grinding facility also forms part of the application.

 The application specifically proposes:

• Remediation and rehabilitation of the existing stockpiles left by the previous owner for the ongoing use of the site for a non-rural land use. 
• An increase in the portion of the site to be used as a transport depot. 
• A reduction in the portion of the site proposed to be used for mulching. 
• Site fencing for security. 
• Upgrading the surface of the site from compacted limestone to a sealed asphalt. 
• The installation of solar panels. 
• The provision of dome structures, site office and toilets. 
• The management and implementation of Stormwater control at the site.
• Internal fencing at the site for multiple tenants.
