Dear Mr Johnson
Application for a Relevant Purpose determination under section 22A of the Vegetation
Management Act 1999 for the clearing of native vegetation on lot 186 MCH224 - Noosa
Shire Council
I refer to your application submitted to the Department of Resources (the department) on 30
March 2021.
The Chief Executive has considered your request and is satisfied that the proposed
development to clear vegetation for the purpose of relevant infrastructure meets the relevant
requirements of section 22A of the Vegetation Management Act 1999. This decision is based on
the development proposal and additional information you submitted to the department on 28
April 2021.
Should your proposal change (eg. development footprint) or circumstances associated with your
proposal change (eg. legislation changes, regional ecosystem mapping changes), you will need
to request another section 22A relevant purpose determination.
This relevant purpose determination is valid for 2 years and will expire on 20 May 2023.
Please note that this letter is not a development approval to carry out vegetation
clearing. You will need to apply for a development approval from the Department of State
Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning (DSDMIP) under the Planning Act
2016.
Prior to lodging a development application, it is strongly recommended that, you arrange a pre-
lodgement meeting through the State Assessment and Referral Agency (SARA) to identify all
relevant State legislation, approvals and application requirements.
Other relevant Commonwealth or State approvals may also be required to undertake vegetation
clearing. An indicative list of other legislation is provided in Attachment 1.
Should you require any additional information please contact the SARA SEQ (North) via:
