of the assessment manager conditions:
PLANNING
Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003
1. There may be a requirement to establish a Cultural Heritage Management Plan and/or obtain
approvals pursuant to the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (ACH Act).
The ACH Act establishes a cultural heritage duty of care which provides that: “A person who
carries out an activity must take all reasonable and practicable measures to ensure the
activity does not harm Aboriginal cultural heritage”. It is an offence to fail to comply with the
duty of care. Substantial monetary penalties may apply to individuals or corporations
breaching this duty of care. Injunctions may also be issued by the Land and Resources
Tribunal, and the Minister administering the ACH Act can also issue stop orders for an activity
that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or the cultural heritage value
of Aboriginal cultural heritage.
You should contact the Cultural Heritage Unit to discuss any obligations under the ACH Act.
Qualified Person
2. For the purpose of preparing a Rehabilitation Plan, a qualified person is considered to be a
landscape architect or ecologist with a minimum of 3 years current experience in the field of
landscape design.
For the purpose of preparing a Bushfire Management Plan, and for certifying compliance
with the bushfire requirements of this Decision Notice, a qualified person is considered to be
an ecologist with a minimum of 3 years current experience in the field of bushfire assessment
and management.
Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Levy
3. The QLeave levy must be paid prior to the issue of a development permit where it is required.
Council will not be able to issue a Decision Notice without receipt of details that the Levy has
been paid.
Co-ordination of Operational Works Assessment
4. Additional application fees apply to Operational Work applications where the different
aspects of the works are lodged separately. Significant savings in application fees will result
if all works are lodged in a single application.
