              ASSESSMENT AGAINST THE SPP

     A single State Planning Policy 2013 (SPP) came into effect in Queensland in December 2013 and
     was since amended in 2017. The State Planning Policy (SPP) provides local governments with
     guidance on a variety of State Interests and how they are to be dealt with in local planning schemes.
     S5 Environmental understands the Noosa Plan, does not appropriately integrate the state interests
     detailed in the SPP. Therefore, an assessment against Part E: State Interest Policies and Assessment
     Benchmarks of the SPP (2017) in relation to Natural Hazards, Risk and Resilience has been provided
     in Section 3.1 below. The relevant SPP Map is enclosed in Appendix A of this report.

     6.1      Part E – State Interest Policies and Assessment Benchmarks
     As outlined above, the proposed development needs to be assessed against the Planning for safety
     and resilience to hazards requirements of the SPP 2017.

     Table 6, below, is an assessment against Part E of the SPP in relation to Biodiversity and Natural
     Hazards, Risk and Resilience. The proposal is for the Reconfiguration of a Lot with the development
     of a residential lots and townhouses.

These performance outcomes apply to the following development applications, to the extent the SPP has
not been identified in a local planning instrument as appropriately integrated.
A development application for a material change of use, reconfiguration of a lot or operational works on
premises in any of the following:
    (1) Bushfire prone areas;
    (2) Flood hazard areas;
    (3) Landslide hazard areas;
    (4) Storm tide inundation areas; and
Erosion prone area.
Erosion prone areas within a coastal management district:
    (1) Development does not occur in an              N/A The subject site is not located in a coastal
        erosion prone area within a coastal                   management district or erosion prone area.
        management district unless the
        development cannot feasibly be located
        elsewhere and is:
            a. Coastal-dependent
                 development; or
            b. Temporary, readily relocatable
                 or able to be abandoned
                 development; or
            c. Essential community
