9.0      Assessment of proposal against Single State Planning Policy 2013

Single State Planning Policy (SSPP, December 2013 current version April 2016) replaces State Planning Policy 1/03
Mitigating the Adverse Impacts of Flood, Bushfire and Landslide. The SSPP Guideline – Natural Hazards provides a
methodology for determining Bushfire Hazard based on Potential Fireline Intensity. The methodology and hazard
mapping is currently in draft form, but has been included in Section 3.1 of this Plan in establishing the adjacent area as
potentially hazardous and as a bushfire prone area.

Part E of the SSPP provides interim development assessment requirements to ensure that State interests are
appropriately considered in relation to natural hazards, including bushfire hazard areas. These provisions serve as
general guidelines to either avoid or otherwise adequately mitigate bushfire risk. Specific guidelines for bushfire hazard
overlay codes are yet to be provided, and this detail is addressed by this Plan in terms of meeting the current
requirements of Local Government in Section 8 above.

Interim Development Assessment                     Solutions Provided
Requirements – SSPP Part E

Development:
(1) avoids natural hazard areas or mitigates the   This Plan establishes the minor nature of the adjacent hazard and provides
    risks of the natural hazard, and               a combination of bushfire protection measures to mitigate risk including
                                                   building construction, asset protection zones, access, water supplies and
                                                   utilities, and emergency management arrangements.

(2) supports, and does not unduly burden,          The combined effect of the bushfire protection measures specified by this
    disaster management response or recovery       Plan serves to reduce risk to a low level and ensure resilience and
    capacity and capabilities, and                 preparedness for unplanned fire so that the response or recovery capacity
                                                   and capability of emergency services is not unduly burdened or impeded.
