PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                      08 AUGUST 2017


5.    CONCLUSION
The proposed Community Use - Open Space Type 2 (Campground) in the Open Space
Conservation zone is a consistent use within the zone and does not raise any significant planning
concerns. The land to the south of the existing campground is owned by the Queensland Parks
and Wildlife Service who have consented to the making of the application. The application seeks
to formalise a historic encroachment into this area with camp sites to be located in degraded areas.
Therefore no vegetation is proposed to be removed and the environmental values of the remainder
of the site and the surrounding areas will be maintained or improved.
The application has demonstrated compliance with the relevant provisions of the Noosa Plan and
will allow for the continuing use of the site for the purpose of recreational camping within the natural
setting. The continuing use will comply with the number of sites approved under the lease and is
considered to be consistent with provisions of the Noosa Plan.
