Bushfire Hazard Assessment & Management Plan v4                                      NCES REF: J000841
Lot 4 on SP320405 – 7 Triller Court, Pomona




1     INTRODUCTION

1.1       Background
This Bushfire Hazard Assessment and Management Plan has been prepared to assess and manage
the degree of potential bushfire hazard and associated risk acting on Lot 4 on SP320405, located at
7 Triller Court, Pomona (referenced hereafter as ‘the site’). The site is the subject of a
Reconfiguration of a Lot development application (1 into 4 lots) to be submitted to Noosa Council.
This assessment is to be used to assist Council with their decision-making process.
State Planning Policy Bushfire Intensity Overlay Map
The site is mapped under the State Planning Policy (SPP) as containing the following Potential
Bushfire Intensity areas (refer to Plate 1):
      •    High Potential Bushfire Intensity area;
      •    Medium Potential Bushfire Intensity area; and
      •    Potential Impact Buffer.




                                 Plate 1 – SPP Bushfire Intensity Mapping Overlay

Under Chapter 2, Part 1, Section 8, Item 4(a) of the Planning Act 2016, where there is an
inconsistency between a State planning policy and local government planning instrument, a State
planning policy applies instead of a regional plan or local planning instrument. As such the SPP
Bushfire Prone Areas mapping prevails with respect to the currency of the methodology used to
assign risk classes hence is to be used as the trigger for assessment under Council’s Bushfire
Hazard Overlay Code in lieu of the NSC Bushfire Hazard Overlay.

1.2       Development Proposal
The applicant is seeking to subdivide the existing allotment into 4 new allotments. Proposed Lots 4
to 6 are to be located within the low density residential zone in the east. Proposed Lot 7 is to be
located within the rural zone in the west of the site. The site will be accessed from the terminus of
Triller Court via a shared access easement. The Plan of Development is included as Appendix 1.
