These guidelines are intended to give stakeholders who need to comply with conditions for subdivision some guidance to achieve condition clearance. They focus on the conditions for subdivision only.  The standard environmental conditions (Model Subdivision Conditions Schedule) available to officers are:

EN1 Environmental Management Plan

Fauna Management, Wetland Management, Foreshore Management: Prior to the commencement of subdivisional works an environmental/ bushland/tree/wetland/wildlife protection management plan is to be prepared and approved to ensure the protection and management of the sites environmental assets with satisfactory arrangements being made for the implementation of the approved plan.

EN2 Tree Retention Plan

Prior to the commencement of subdivisional works, measures being undertaken to identify any vegetation on the site worthy of retention, including any potential habitat or foraging trees for threatened fauna species, and protection measures implemented to ensure such vegetation is not impacted by subdivisional works. 

EN3 Revegetation Management Plan

A revegetation plan being prepared, approved and implemented for the revegetation of the area with appropriate native species to the specifications of the Department of Water and Environmental Regulation OR Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions OR the Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale.

Note that this advice may be included in a subdivision condition. The intent is clearly defined and unable to be discussed further.

EN5 -  The Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale advises that it has identified trees of significance on the site that may have potential to be retained, and advises the applicant/ landowner to investigate the viability of retention. OR The landowner/applicant is advised to liaise with the Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale regarding the retention and protection of any trees of significance on the site, and investigating the potential for tree retention within the open space or setback areas of future development.

This guide also provides definitions and expectations for the clearing of conditions of subdivision through the various management plans in the above subdivision conditions for environmental matters.
