2020-07-16 SM Agenda - Item 1 - Attachment 5 - Final Noosa Plan 2020 Part 8-10 Schedules & Appendix

 Editor’s Note – Development in the erosion prone area, as shown on the SPP interactive mapping system, will be subject to assessment
 against the assessment benchmarks – natural hazards, risk and resilience within the State Planning Policy.

 8.2.4.2            Purpose and overall outcomes
 (1)    The purpose of the Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity overlay code is to:
        (a)   maintain coastal processes including erosion and accretion processes to enable these natural functions to continue;
        (b)   maintain the protective function of coastal resources including vegetation and dunes to mitigate risks associated with
              coastal erosion; and
        (c)   ensure development is designed and sited to protect the natural beach experience and scenic amenity of the coastal area
              enjoyed by Noosa Shire residents and visitors.


 Editor's Note—Coastal hazards including coastal erosion, storm tide inundation, or permanent inundation from sea level rise. The term
 includes the impacts from climate change. Storm tide inundation is specifically addressed in the Flood Hazard overlay code.

 Editor's Note—Coastal Erosion Areas are identified on Council's online mapping for the years 2040, 2070 and 2100.


 (2)    The purpose of the code will be achieved through the following overall outcomes:
        (a)   Development allows for natural processes of erosion and accretion to occur naturally, including as a result of sea level rise.
        (b)   Development ensures landforms, creeks, dunes, vegetation and biodiversity in coastal areas are not impacted by
              development to mitigate coastal hazard risks and to protect environmental values; and
        (c)   Development is designed and sited to protect the visual character and scenic amenity of the Coastal Protection and Scenic
              Amenity Area and to integrate with the surrounding natural landscape and skyline vegetation.

  Performance outcomes                                                Acceptable outcomes
  Development in Coastal Erosion Areas
  PO1                                                                 No acceptable outcome provided.
  Development allows for natural fluctuations of the coast and
  foreshores to occur, including allowance of climate change.

  Editor's note—Coastal erosion areas are identified on Council's
  online mapping for the years 2040, 2070 and 2100.
  Protection of dunes and coastal creeks

  PO2
  Development is located, designed and constructed to:                No acceptable outcome provided

  (a)    maintain dune crest heights and minimise and mitigate the
         risk to development from wave overtopping and storm tide
         inundation;
  (b)    maintain or enhance coastal ecosystems and natural
         features such as coastal creeks and marine plants
         including mangroves, salt marshes and coastal wetlands,
         to assist in protecting and buffering communities and
         infrastructure from sea­level rise and coastal inundation
         impacts.

  Coastal building Lines
  PO3
  Where a coastal building line exists on a lot, all buildings,       No acceptable outcome provided
  structures and retaining walls do not extend seaward of the
  coastal building line for the site, other than—
  (a)    uncovered and unenclosed cantilevered balconies that do
         not extend greater than 3 metres seaward of the coastal
         building line; and
