Attachment 1—Reasons for responsible entity decision
(Given under section 83(9) of the Planning Act 2016)

The reasons for SARA’s decision are:
 The development was assessed as being minor in accordance with the Planning Act 2016 and the
   Development Assessment Rules.

      SARA assessed the development against the following codes of the State Development Assessment
       Provisions (SDAP), version 3.0:
          o State code 6: Protection of state transport networks (State code 6)
          o State code 25: Development in South East Queensland koala habitat areas (State code 25).

      The development complies with the assessment benchmarks of State code 6 of SDAP in that the
       development:
          o protects state transport infrastructure, public passenger transport infrastructure, active
              transport infrastructure and public passenger services from the adverse impacts of
              development;
          o maintains the operating performance of the transport network;
          o ensures development enables safe and convenient access to public passenger transport;
          o does not create a safety hazard for users of state transport infrastructure or public passenger
              services by increasing the likelihood or frequency of a fatality or serious injury;
          o does not result in worsening of the physical condition or operating performance of the state
              transport network;
          o provides public passenger transport infrastructure to enable development to be services by
              public passenger transport;
          o provides safe and direct access to public passenger transport infrastructure or active
              transport infrastructure, including access by cycling and walking.

      The development complies with the assessment benchmarks of State code 25 of SDAP in that the
       development:
          o does not cause an unacceptable impact on mapped koala habitat areas;
          o is designed and located to avoid impacts or, where the matters of state environmental
              significance cannot be reasonably avoided, impacts are reasonably minimised and mitigated;
          o results in a significant residual impact that is acceptable, and an offset is provided.
