               In accordance with its jurisdiction under Schedule 10 Part 9 Division 2 of the Planning Regulation
               2017, Powerlink Queensland was a Referral Agency (Advice) for the above development
               application.
               Specifically, the application required assessment by Powerlink Queensland under the following
               referral triggers:
               •       For material change of use – all or part of the premises are subject to a transmission entity
                       easement which is part of the transmission supply network (Table 2 1b).
               •       For operational work – all or part of the premises are subject to a transmission entity
                       easement which is part of the transmission supply network (Table 3 1a).
               The applicant referred the application to Powerlink Queensland on 14 April 2025. The referral was
               made in accordance with Section 54 of the Planning Act 2016.
               Powerlink Queensland responded on 4 June 2025 confirming support of this application subject to
               the inclusion of the conditions in their response in Council’s Decision Notice.
               With reference to the unapproved structure shown in Figure 4, Powerlink has in their amended
               response stated that the submitted plans and reports are supported, subject to their recommended
               conditions.
               The conditions recommended by Powerlink include the requirement to surrender the existing
               easement referenced 601108825 over Lot 6 on RP216727 and contemporaneously register a
               replacement easement over Lot 6 on RP216727 on terms satisfactory to Powerlink.
               The terms of the replacement easement shall include but not be limited to permitting the location
               of the awning/shelter site (set out in Attachment 2 - Assessed Plans) to remain within the easement
               area only while the Applicant remains the registered owner of Lot 6 on RP216727 and requiring
               the awning/shelter to be removed or relocated at the applicant's cost, if directed by Powerlink.
               As requested by Powerlink, the conditions included in their amended Referral Agency Response
               will be imposed by Council in their role as the Assessment Manager for this development as an
               attachment to the decision made by Council.
