New State Government Vegetation Removal Exemptions '10/30 Right'
One of Manningham’s most valued features is the balance of City and Country, with a unique interface of urban areas surrounded by large rural properties and vast natural areas. This abundance of vegetation brings a higher level of fire risk.
The Victorian Government has introduced new exemptions for bushfire protection into the Planning Schemes of all municipalities considered to be at risk of wildfire, including Manningham.
The new exemptions allow for the removal of vegetation without a planning permit in certain circumstances, to reduce fuel loads around homes and minimise risk to life and property from wildfire.
The State Government’s New ‘10/30 Right’
The State Government’s ‘10/30 Right’ is about your ‘right’ to clear vegetation around your home for bushfire protection without obtaining a planning permit.
The ‘10/30 Right’ aims to help residents in areas of fire risk, reduce the amount and availability of fine fuels (including leaf litter, twigs and shrubs) and therefore reduce fire intensity and risk.
The ‘10/30 Right’ would allow landowners to clear for fire protection purposes only, without a planning permit:
?
All vegetation, including trees, within 10 metres of your house
? All vegetation (except trees) within 30 metres of your house |
