6.2. Bushfire Buffers/Firebreaks
AREA 4
Walter Hay Drive provides a substantial buffer from the National Park to the east. The zone adjoining the
Council Park at Lots 12 – 15 requires a 20m buffer from development. The land will be cleared and used for
car parks and access. No building can be constructed in this area. This will include a 6-metre emergency
access linking Hofmann Drive with Walter Hay Drive (Refer to Figure 11).

This 20-metre separation will be achieved with 6m emergency access established along the southern boundary
of Lots 11-15 linking Hofmann Drive with Walter Hay Drive. This access has been reviewed by engineering
and the access to Walter Hay Drive confirmed by Barlow & Shelley (Figure 13). Access will be maintained
via an easement and management of this access will be the responsibility of Lot 1 (Noosa Civic Shopping
Centre). There will also be a 10m firebreak along the northern boundary of Lots 4, 5, 6 and 8 (Refer to Figure
11).

AREA 2
It is proposed to have an emergency access constructed along the north western extent of Lot 23 to connect
with Walter Hay Drive. Emergency access crossings will be constructed within the road reserve of Walter
Hay Drive, northwest of the 250W Powerline. The existing management access under the power line is
connected to Walter Hay Drive and to the 3m bikeway in the north (Refer to Figure 12).
