 9.3.13             Rural Activities Code

 9.3.13.1           Application
 This code applies to acceptable development which is subject to requirements and to assessable development identified as
 requiring assessment against the Rural Activities code by the tables of assessment in Part 5 (Tables of assessment).

 9.3.13.2           Purpose and overall outcomes
 (1)    The purpose of the Rural Activities code is to ensure that a range of rural activities are established and operated in a
        sustainable manner which:
        (a)   conserves the productive characteristics of rural land;
        (b)   protects environmental and landscape values; and
        (c)   protects the amenity of surrounding premises.
 (2)    The overall outcomes sought for Rural Activities are:
        (a)   Rural activities contribute to the economic strength of the Noosa hinterland and create opportunities for employment.
        (b)   Animal husbandry and cropping contribute to the heritage values of the Shire.
        (c)   Innovative and sustainable agricultural enterprises are particularly promoted and encouraged.
        (d)   Rural activities directly and indirectly support the local production of food and beverage products.
        (e)   Development maintains and enhances rural landscapes and ecologically important areas.
        (f)   Development is managed to protect land and water resources to avoid diminished productivity.
        (g)   Rural activities are located and operated to protect and maintain water quality values of surface and groundwater.
        (h)   Rural activities are separated from sensitive land uses which might be adversely affected by the activity.

 FOR ACCEPTED DEVELOPMENT
 The requirements for acceptable development are the acceptable outcomes listed in the Table of Assessment. Accepted
 development that complies with all the acceptable solutions is considered to satisfy the requirements. If development complies
 with some, but not all, acceptable outcomes, an application for Code Assessment will be necessary and the application will be
 assessed against the relevant Performance Outcome(s).

 FOR ASSESSABLE DEVELOPMENT
 Acceptable outcomes are provided for some, but not all, performance outcomes, and identify ways in which performance
 outcomes can be met. Compliance with the performance outcome should be demonstrated and the acceptable outcomes are
 considered as one way to satisfy the corresponding performance outcome.
