Development Area.

The site is however located within a coastal management district and advice has been received from the
State Development, Infrastructure and Planning advising that the proposed works are considered to be
‘excluded works’ and therefore the proposal is not required to be referred to the State Government. A copy of
this advice is included as Annexure B.

6.2          State Planning Policy
The site is not mapped as being affected by any of the State Planning Policy’s state interests and
is consistent with relevant Policy.

The Noosa Plan includes the site in the Noosa Heads locality and provides the site with the Open Space
Conservation zone. The assessment table for the Open Space Conservation zone indicates that an
Emergency Service Type 2 Shed is impact assessable development.
