(2) Was a penalty was applied to Brindabella Christian College for the removal of these trees; if there has been no penalty applied, why not; if there has yet to be a penalty applied over two years later, why not.
Mr Steel: The answer to the member’s question is as follows:
(1) A preliminary investigation was undertaken by Access Canberra.
(2) No penalty was applied. Conditions of approval were imposed on the development application submitted by Brindabella Christian College (BCC). These conditions require BCC to replant four advanced trees on the southern boundary of the site at the completion of construction works. Transport Canberra and City Services (TCCS) has provided recommendations for the species selection and placement of the trees and has arranged to be present to ensure planting is undertaken to specifications.
