INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES INFORMATION NOTICE
1.     PRELIMINARY

Infrastructure charges are triggered and issued on development approvals as a contribution towards the
cost of "trunk" infrastructure provided to service development.
For development approved prior to 1 July 2011, infrastructure contributions and (ICP) charges continue to
apply in accordance with the development approval conditions and or infrastructure charge notices (ICP)
issued under legislation current at the time those approvals & charge notices were issued.
For development approved from 1 July 2011, adopted infrastructure charges are governed by local
government adopted infrastructure charges resolutions in accordance with the "Sustainable Planning Act
2009 (SPA)" and “State Planning Regulatory Provision (adopted charges) (SPRP)”.
The Sustainable Planning (Infrastructure Charges) and Other Legislation Amendment Bill 2014 introduced
further amendments to SPA that commenced to apply for developments approved from 4 July 2014.
From 1 July 2014, Infrastructure Charges Notices are issued separately by both Council and Unitywater
relating to their specified “Trunk” infrastructure networks. All payments (including contributions & charges
previously issued) are also payable separately to Council and Unitywater respectfully.

2.     THE DECISION AND REASONS FOR IT

The Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (as amended), provides for the following:
(1) Authorises local governments to do the following for development approvals:
      (a) for trunk infrastructure, either or both of the following—
          (i) adopt, by resolution, charges for development infrastructure and levy charges in accordance
               with the resolution;
          (ii) impose particular conditions about development infrastructure;
      (b) for non-trunk infrastructure, impose particular conditions about development infrastructure; and
(2) Provides for a State planning regulatory provision to govern local government adopted charges and
    charges by distributor-retailers under the SEQ Water Act for trunk infrastructure.
Noosa Council decided to apply infrastructure charges on development under its adoption of the "Noosa
Shire Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges Resolution (No.1) 2014" to replace the "Sunshine Coast
Regional Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges Resolution (No.4) 2011" that translated across to Noosa
Council on 1 January 2014. The resolutions also detail the apportionment (break-up) agreement with
Unitywater.
On 12 February 2015, Noosa Council Adopted the "Noosa Shire Council Charges Resolution (No.2) 2014" to
replace the "Noosa Shire Council Adopted Infrastructure Charges Resolution (No.1) 2014" to comply with
the requirements of the SPA amendments dated 4 July 2014 and amended (break-up) agreement with
Unitywater. The resolution takes effect and applies to new approvals issued from Monday 16 February 2015.

3.     INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGE NOTICES

3.1    TRIGGERS FOR INFRASTRUCTUE CHARGES & ISSUING OF NOTICES
The triggers for issuing infrastructure charges are defined in the SPA and SPRP and are generally triggered
by the issue of a development permit for either:
(1) Reconfiguration of a lot; or
(2) Material Change of Use of Premises; or
(3) Building Works issued by a Private Certifier.




                               PO Box 141              P. (07) 5329 6500    [email protected]
                               TEWANTIN QLD 4565       F. (07) 5329 6501    www.noosa.qld.gov.au         ICN - Page 4

Page 5

Under the SPA, infrastructure charges are not imposed by condition on a development permit - they are an
action that follows the issue of a permit. So consequently, charges may be imposed in cases where a
development permit for a lot reconfiguration or material change of use of premises has previously been
granted, but a development permit for building works is yet to issue.
3.2    DUE DATE FOR PAYMENT OF INFRASTRUCTUE CHARGES (SPA SECTION 638)
(1) A levied charge becomes payable—
      (a) if the charge applies for reconfiguring a lot—when the local government that levied the charge
          approves the plan of subdivision for the reconfiguration; or
      (b) if the charge applies for building work—when the certificate of classification or final inspection
          certificate for the building work is given; or
      (c) if the charge applies for a material change of use—when the change happens; or
      (d) if the charge applies for other development—on the day stated in the infrastructure charges notice
          under which the charge was levied.
(2) This section is subject to section 639.
3.3    EFFECT OF CHARGES NOTICE (INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES TAKEN TO BE A RATE)
An infrastructure charge levied by a local government is, for the purposes of recovery, taken to be a rate
within the meaning of the Local Government Act 1993. This means:
(1) an infrastructure charge may be recovered by court action for a debt;
(2) an infrastructure charge may be recovered from the person for the time being owning the relevant
    land, regardless of who was the owner or other person upon whom the charges was imposed;
(3) INTEREST IS PAYABLE on overdue payments; and
(4) if charges are unpaid for 3 years, THE LAND CAN BE SOLD to recover the outstanding charges.
3.4    INTEREST ON OVERDUE INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES
Compound interest at the rate of 11% per annum calculated daily is payable on all overdue infrastructure
charges outstanding after the due date for payment as applying to the infrastructure charges notice.
3.5    GOODS AND SERVICES TAX
The federal government has determined that rates and utility charges levied by local government will be
GST free. Accordingly, no GST is included in this infrastructure charges notice.
