GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 18 FEBRUARY 2019
REPORT
A report on this application was prepared for the Planning and Environment Committee meeting
on 12 February 2019 recommending that a Preliminary Approval be issued due to concerns
about retention of vegetation and building design issues. Since the closing of the agenda for the
Planning and Environment Committee meeting further discussions were had with the applicant.
The applicant subsequently lodged amended plans with Council to address the issues raised by
officers. This further report provides an outline of the changes and amended plans are provided
at Attachment 1.
Street trees
The key reason for officers recommending a preliminary approval was to ensure the retention of
3 Eucalyptus tereticornis trees in the Olivine Street frontage. The preliminary approval was
recommended as the impact of retaining the trees on the development layout and yield was
unclear. The amended plans provided by the applicant include revisions to the site layout and
provide for the retention of the tress.
Review of Amended Plans
Layout
The amended site layout includes only 1 vehicle access from Kauri Street and 2 from Olivine
Street, whereas the original development proposed 2 vehicle accesses off Kauri Street and 1 off
Olivine Street. The new layout does not raise any traffic concerns, allows for the 3 subject trees
to be retained and provides a garden suitable for a shade canopy tree to be planted at the ‘Y’
junction internal to the site. The previous and proposed layouts are provided below in Figure 1 for
comparison.
Figure 1
Key development parameters comply with the Planning Scheme as shown in Table 1 below.
Some small changes have occurred which are indicated in red text.

Table 1 – Development yield
All units remain less than 90m² providing housing diversity for Cooroy in accordance with
Council’s Housing Needs Assessment (Briggs and Mortar March 2017) undertaken for the new
Noosa Plan.
Setbacks
The setbacks to Kauri Street are the same as previously proposed to Olivine Street and raise no
concern as the development is low rise, with the only encroachment for veranda posts and good
opportunities for landscaping.
Built form
Variation has been provided to break up the roof form seen from Kauri Street and an increase to
the roof pitch from 10 degrees to 12 degrees to complement the Cooroy character. The applicant
has provided articulation to the units of concern and the proposal plans are now considered to
address all outstanding built form matters raised by officers previously.

Environment Strategy
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A draft Environment Strategy and overarching Environment and Sustainable Living Policy have
been developed to provide long term strategic direction and guiding principles for the way we
manage and live in the Noosa environment. The draft Environment Strategy provides clear
strategies, targets and a range of strategic outcomes that Council seeks to achieve in partnership
with the community and a range of stakeholders. This report presents the Environment and
Sustainable Living Policy for adoption and the draft Environment Strategy for endorsement to go
out to community consultation.
RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Manager Environmental Services to the General Committee
Meeting dated 18 February 2019 and:
A. Adopt the Environment and Sustainable Living Policy provided at Attachment 1 to the
report;
B. Approve the draft Environment Strategy for the purposes of community consultation, as
provided at Attachment 2 to the report.
C. Approve the Community Engagement & Communications Plan for the drat Environment
Strategy, as provided at Attachment 3 to the report.
REPORT
The Environment and Sustainable Living Policy outlines Council’s high level commitment to work
with the community in a collaborative, integrated, ecologically sustainable and well-informed way,
and with a long-term view to maintaining and improving the health of our natural environment.
The draft Environment Strategy provides further detail to guide decision making and investment
over the next 10 years. It is supported by a broad range of existing environment-related plans
that contain detailed actions, responsibilities and timeframes for delivery, including the Noosa
River Plan, Zero Emissions Strategy, Waste Reduction and Recycling Plan, Flood Management
Plan, and the soon to be developed Climate Change Adaptation Plan, amongst other policies and
guidelines.
Page 43 of 61
Section 44
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 18 FEBRUARY 2019
The draft has been developed with regular community input and engagement, with environment-
related community groups, and the community more broadly, with feedback already sought on
Your Say Noosa on the key elements that should be part of the strategy.
The final version of the Environment Strategy will include an Implementation Plan that will include
key implementation actions for the first 3-4 years of the life of the strategy, and a clear framework
for monitoring and evaluating the success of the strategy. With the release of the draft
Environment Strategy, the community will be asked for their input into key implementation actions
to contribute to this plan.
The Environment Strategy is expected to have a 10-year timeframe, with regular reporting (at
least biennial) on the tracking of success against targets identified in the document.
Previous Council Consideration
Ordinary Meeting, 15 December 2016, Item 6, Page 9:
That Council note the report by the Principal Strategic Planner to the General Committee Meeting
dated 12 December 2016, and:
A. Endorse the Biodiversity Assessment Report provided at Attachment 1 for the purpose of
informing the development of an Environment Strategy and supporting Biodiversity
Conservation Plan other than for the following issues:
1. Note that this is not the only substantial area of coastal mainland remnant vegetation
between Byron Bay (300 km south in northern NSW) and Bundaberg (250 km to the
north) as referred to on page 17, item 2.1, paragraph 2; and
2. Note that Noosa Council considers the koala as a threatened mammal for West
Cooroy State Forest for the purposes of the table on page 128.
B. Request staff to prepare a discussion paper for the purposes of community consultation for
the development of an Environment Strategy and Biodiversity Conservation Plan.
Finance
The draft Environment Strategy has been prepared internally using existing staff resources.
Implementation of the strategy may involve significant financial resources, however this will be
considered as part of normal budget processes. An Implementation Plan will be developed and
presented to Council with the final strategy, after consultation with the community, which will
include potential costs and funding sources associated with any actions.
Risks & Opportunities
The Environment Strategy, along with the Local Economic Plan, Social Strategy, Transport
Strategy and Noosa Planning Scheme, form the key strategic policy documents for Noosa
Council. This strategy and overarching policy are the missing pieces to complete this framework.
These documents will be critical for prioritising and guiding appropriate environmental and
sustainability outcomes.
The risk of not having a coordinated and strategic approach to the environment, that considers
local, regional and global issues, could mean investment decisions and actions are misdirected
towards areas that are not of greatest priority. Opportunities to work in partnership with the
community may also be missed where there is no clear direction and common vision for the
future.

Consultation
External Consultation - Community & Stakeholder
A number of community forums and workshops were held in 2017 to discuss the scope, themes
and priorities for an Environment Strategy. A total of 26 community groups participated.
A discussion paper on the Environment Strategy was distributed to community groups for
comment in April 2018.
Through community consultation on Your Say Noosa in July and August 2018, Council received
more than 60 comments on priorities for inclusion in the draft strategy.
Further workshops with community groups were held in December 2018 to refine environmental
management and sustainable living issues.
Broad community engagement on the draft Strategy is the next step in the process and is
outlined in the Community Engagement & Communications Plan, refer Attachment 3. External
engagement will largely be through Your Say Noosa, media releases, Facebook and briefings to
community groups.
Internal Consultation
In June 2018, a Councillor workshop was held to discuss the broad direction and scope of the
Environment Strategy, prior to the start of active drafting. This included the proposed structure of
the plan, a discussion around key policy principles, and an outline of how consultation will
progress.
In November 2018 a draft Environment and Sustainable Living Policy and Draft Environment
Strategy was workshopped with Councillors, with specific focus on the core structure of the
document – themes, strategies and outcomes. The opportunity for more detailed feedback on the
whole draft was offered to Councillors in the weeks after this workshop.
In February 2019 the proposed targets, strategies and methods for measuring against targets
were workshopped with Councillors.
Key managers and officers have also been involved in the development of the Strategy and been
able to review drafts as the draft Environment Strategy has progressed.

POLICY BACKGROUND
This policy will outline the principles by which Noosa Coun ill pa with the community to
manage our natural environment, and live and work sus ly.
This policy should be read in conjunction with the nment Strategy, whic provide details
of key strategies, environmental management S and prioritisation. Other n plans and

COUNCIL POLICY
The vision of Noosa Council is Noosa: diff a Nowh this more clearly illustrated

Historically, Noosa ha enad ent path'to other areas of south-east Queensland and today
we reap the benefit large tract retained vegetation, the healthiest waterways in the region,
and an engaged and active comm :
These great strengths also forn basis © omy as people travel from all over the world to
enjoy Noo envird t. The value of the Noosa brand also provides great opportunities
for ney art’ and en’ i ies to develop and thrive, diversifying our economy beyond
touris ilst offering econo value and low environmental impact.
More tf 50 years of e »nmental activism, dating back to 1962 when Dr Arthur Harrold
established the Noosa Parks Association, has resulted in a community that places high value on the
natural environment. It has 2 esulted in a community that seeks to live sustainably.
On 20th September 200 Noosa Shire was designated a Noosa Biosphere Reserve under the
UNESCO Man and B ere program.
This policy sets out the principles by which Council will seek to maintain and continually improve on
this historical trajectory and its Biosphere Reserve covenant. It recognises that Noosa will continually
strive for a higher standard in the way we manage and live in our environment.
Through the planning scheme (The Noosa Plan), appropriate development that provides for broader
community benefit will still occur, but it will be undertaken in a way that minimises environmental
harm and provides for best practice sustainable environmental design.
Our goal is that the Noosa environment continues to be protected, enhanced and valued by the
community.

Project Description — approximately 250 words to describe what the project is about. This will be used as the introduction
on Your Say Noosa
The purpose of the project is to prepare an overarching Environment Strategy that will provide principles and strategic
direction for environment-related projects. It will help prioritise key environmental initiatives and provide measurable
targets to assess and monitor change in the environment over time. It will play an important role in providing a
coordinated approach and a shared understanding within the community and Council of environment management issues
and actions needed for Noosa Shire.
Design - Project background — Why is the project necessary, what are contributing factors leading to the decision to
engage?
The project is a key focus area under the Corporate Plan. The strategy will be a whole of Council strategy document that
will have an important community focus.
Design - Understand context & scope project : Consider political, economic, social, technological, legal, environmental
and historical factors plus what is in and what is out of scope for the project (Fig 1)
The Environment Strategy will be one of the cornerstone strategies (along with the Social Strategy and Local Economic
Plan) that make up council’s corporate policy framework under the corporate plan. There are numerous environmental plans
and policies that guide decision making and project delivery but no overarching prioritisation framework for the environment
that helps to coordinate these. The Environment Strategy will have an important role in setting environmental targets and key
strategies under four themes:
e Biodiversity
e Waterways, wetlands and coasts
e Sustainable Living
e Climate Change Adaptation and Resilience
The Environment Strategy will provide some contextual information on environmental values and threats, management
issues and trends, existing initiatives and strategic outcomes for the next 10 years.
An implementation plan will identify key implementation actions for delivery in the first couple of years and a framework for
monitoring and evaluation of the success of the strategy. Community feedback will provide input into key implementation
actions, and these will be included in the final version for Council endorsement.
Design - Project Aims — bullet points
To provide:
e ahigh level policy position on managing the Noosa environment
e astrategic decision making framework for prioritising projects and investment and for evaluating and monitoring
change
e priority outcomes for Council to deliver in partnership with the community
e targets that are specific, measurable, achievable, relevant and time limited (SMART)
e key implementation actions as a focus for the coming years
Design - Understand stakeholders & identify roles and influence of groups and individuals (See Fig1 & 2)
Key stakeholders:
° Internal staff and Councillors
° Community groups with an environment interest
° General community
Other potential stakeholders:
° State agencies (DAFF, DES, DNRME)
° Infrastructure providers (SEQ Water, Unity Water)
