     DECISION NOTICE ABOUT THE DECISION TO GIVE
         AN INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES NOTICE
1.    PRELIMINARY

Infrastructure charges are triggered and issued on development approvals as a contribution towards the cost
of "trunk" infrastructure provided to service development and are governed by “Charges Resolutions” adopted
by local government in accordance with the planning legislation and regulations current at the time of issue.
Infrastructure Charges Notices are issued separately by both Council and Unitywater relating to their
specified “Trunk” infrastructure networks.


2.    THE DECISION AND REASONS FOR IT

The planning legislation provides for the following:
  a) authorises local governments to do either or both of the following for development approvals in relation
     to trunk infrastructure—
      (i) adopt, by resolution, charges for development infrastructure and levy the charges;
     (ii) impose particular conditions about development infrastructure; and
  b) authorises local governments, for non-trunk infrastructure, to impose particular conditions about
     development infrastructure; and
  c) provides for a regulation to govern local government adopted charges and charges by distributor-
     retailers under the SEQ Water Act for trunk infrastructure.
On 6 February 2014, Noosa Council adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges
Resolution (No.1) 2014" to replace the "Sunshine Coast Regional Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges
Resolution (No.4) 2011" that translated across to Noosa Council on 1 January 2014. The resolution has effect
on development approvals and charge notices issued from 6th February 2014 to 15 February 2015 in
accordance with the legislation current at the time of issue.
On 12 February 2015, Noosa Council adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.2) 2014" to
replace the "Noosa Shire Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges Resolution (No.1) 2014" to include legislative
amendments that commenced on 4 June 2014. The resolution has effect on development approvals and charge
notices issued from 16th February 2015 to 27 October 2016 in accordance with the legislation current at
the time of issue.
On 20 October 2016, Noosa Council adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.2) 2014
(Amendment 1)" to reflect adopted amendments made to the planning scheme. The resolution has effect on
development approvals and charge notices issued from 28th October 2016 to 23rd September 2018 in
accordance with the legislation current at the time of issue.
On 20 September 2018, Noosa Council adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.3) 2018"
replacing the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.2) 2014 (Amendment 1)" to reflect the current
planning legislation, regulation and LGIP. The resolution has effect on development approvals and charge
notices issued from 24th to 22nd September 2018 in accordance with the legislation current at the time of
issue.
On 19 September 2019, Noosa Council adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.4) 2019"
replacing the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.3) 2018 to reflect the Amendment of the Planning
Regulation 2017 where the prescribed amounts have been updated to the current 2019-2020 financial year
and Unitywater having adopted its own Infrastructure Charges Schedule to better comply with its respective
legislation, the “South-East Queensland Water (Distribution and Retail Restructuring) Act 2009” (SEQ Water
Act). The resolution has effect on development approvals and charge notices issued from 23th September
2019 in accordance with the legislation current at the time of issue.

Council’s decision and reason/s for issuing the infrastructure charge is because the development results in an
increase in the type/s and/or quantity in use/s on the site and therefore places additional demand on
infrastructure. The determination of additional demand on infrastructure correlates directly to the
infrastructure charge calculation undertaken in accordance with Council’s Charges Resolution and the planning
legislation. Refer also to Queensland State Government Fact Sheet: “Local government infrastructure
framework, Calculating additional demand and existing use credits”.
The Infrastructure Charges Notice includes “Special Notes” (if applicable) on page 2 and together with the
infrastructure charge calculation on page 3, provides full and factual details to enable the applicant to review
and if required, for making a submission to Council on the infrastructure charge issued in relation to any of
the following:
      1.    the types and quantities of uses approved by the development permit for the site which may relate to:
            a. the total development of the site; or alternatively,
            b. just the additional development to that existing on the site.
      2. the types and quantities of existing or previously existing “lawful” uses to be used as existing credits
         in calculations relating to the total development of the site (applying to calculations under 1. a. above);
      3. offsets for “trunk” infrastructure that is contained in a development permit condition to be provided
         by the development for crediting against the infrastructure charge calculation (if applicable); and
      4. any other mitigating items (if applicable) that impact the net infrastructure charge amount payable.
Should the applicant believe these details to be incorrect or an omission exists, the applicant may make
representation/s to Council on the Infrastructure Charges Notice providing full supporting particulars with
documentation to enable review of the additional information to be conducted. Where representations are
agreed and verified as being correct, the representation/s will form the basis for a negotiated/amended
infrastructure charges notice to be issued as applicable.

3.         INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGE NOTICES

3.1        TRIGGERS FOR INFRASTRUCTUE CHARGES & ISSUING OF NOTICES
The triggers for issuing infrastructure charges are defined in the planning legislation and are generally
triggered by the issue of a development permit for either:
(1) Reconfiguration of a lot; or
(2) Material Change of Use of Premises; or
(3) Building Works; or
(4) Other development.
Under the planning legislation, infrastructure charges are not imposed by condition on a development permit -
they are an action that follows the issue of a permit. So consequently, charges may be imposed in cases where
a development permit for a lot reconfiguration or material change of use of premises has previously been
granted, but a development permit for building works is yet to issue.


3.2        DUE DATE FOR PAYMENT OF INFRASTRUCTUE CHARGES
(1) A levied charge becomes payable—
      (a) if the charge applies for reconfiguring a lot— when the local government that levied the charge
          approves a plan for the reconfiguration that, under the Land Title Act, is required to be given to the
          local government for approval; or
      (b) if the charge applies for building work—when the certificate of classification or final inspection
          certificate for the building work is given under the Building Act; or
      (c) if the charge applies for a material change of use—when the change happens; or
      (d) if the charge applies for other development—on the day stated in the infrastructure charges notice
          under which the charge is levied.
(2) The recipient of an infrastructure charges notice and the local government may also agree to other
    arrangements for payment.

3.3    LEVIED CHARGE TAKEN TO BE A RATES
A levied charge is, for the purpose of its recovery, taken to be rates of the local government that levied
the charge.
Within the meaning of the Local Government Act, this means:
(1) an infrastructure charge may be recovered by court action for a debt;
(2) an infrastructure charge may be recovered from the person for the time being owning the relevant land,
    regardless of who was the owner or other person upon whom the charges was imposed;
(3) INTEREST IS PAYABLE on overdue payments; and
(4) if charges are unpaid for 3 years, THE LAND CAN BE SOLD to recover the outstanding charges.


3.4    INTEREST ON OVERDUE INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES
Compound interest calculated daily at the rate stated in “Council’s Revenue Statement” is payable on all
overdue infrastructure charges outstanding after the due date for payment stated in the charges notice.


3.5    GOODS AND SERVICES TAX
The federal government has determined that rates and utility charges levied by local government will be
GST free. Accordingly, no GST is included in this infrastructure charges notice.


3.6 USE OF INFRASTRUCTUE CHARGES COLLECTED
Under the planning legislation, a levied charge paid to a local government must be used to provide trunk
infrastructure. Council’s planning scheme identifies trunk infrastructure in Schedule 9.2-Schedule of Works
of its Local Government Infrastructure Plan (LGIP). https://www.noosa.qld.gov.au/view-the-noosa-plan

5.     RIGHTS OF APPEAL
