Noosa Council documents


          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.
