Council Report 131998 981211 5 Amended proposal

•     Provision of an emergency fire access trail along the southern boundary to connect to
      Cootharaba Downs Road.
Following submission of the revised plans and reports, the application was referred to an external
bushfire consultant for an independent review. The consultant indicated that subject to the
buildings being located outside the mapped area of bushfire constraint and the imposition of
relevant conditions, that the proposal presents an acceptable level of risk of bushfire harm to
people and property.
The amended proposal is now considered to be more consistent with the intent of the Noosa Plan
with the applicant demonstrating an acceptable level of risk in accordance with relevant legislation.
The proposal is supported subject to conditions.
