27 - Planning Powers - Local Government Infrastructure Plans - Amend, Simplify and Remove
Unnecessary and Irrelevant Statutory Requirements
Noosa Shire Council
That the Local Government Association of Queensland lobby the State Government to amend the Statutory
Guidelines with respect to Local Government Infrastructure Plans (LGIPs) in order to remove the unnecessary
cost, resource and time burdens reimposed on local governments, with this to be achieved by:
a) removing obsolete requirements for itemised detailed costing of existing assets plus determination of network
catchment demand allocations that are irrelevant under the current adopted infrastructure charges regime (these
former “PIP & ICS” requirements were necessary only for determining charge rates and were thus discarded in
the 2011 legislative amendments on introduction of adopted charges);
b) removing the requirement for third party reviews of draft LGIPs by an appointed reviewer (note that this matter
was raised under motion 28 at the 118th LGAQ Conference to no effect); and
c) simplifying all LGIP review and approval processes to accord with a single process as currently described for
an “interim local government infrastructure plan amendment” - this being identical for “making and amending a
planning scheme policy”.

Background
The local government infrastructure planning and charging framework has been subjected to continual legislative
change since the commencement of the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (IPA) and the Sustainable Planning Act
2009 (SPA) through to the present day. However, each time the legislation has changed, it has created further
complications and difficulties for local government to achieve the task of completing the required statutory
documents and at significant additional cost for something that should otherwise be straight forward, fit for
purpose and simple to undertake and achieve.
The current adopted charges regime commenced in July 2011, applying infrastructure charges through local
government resolutions with maximum charge levels capped under the State Planning Regulatory Provision
(adopted charges). These resolutions can also incorporate all the trunk infrastructure network planning details
