1.0      INTRODUCTION
1.1      PURPOSE
         This report documents the outcomes of a bushfire hazard assessment completed for land located

         Particulars relating to the lot are as follows:
         Real Property Description:         Lot 2 on RP220514
         Address:                           41 Picture Point Crescent, Noosa Heads
         Area:                              1,447m2
         Tenure:                            Freehold
         Improvements:                      Residence and various site improvements

1.2      NOOSA COUNCIL BUSHFIRE HAZARD OVERLAY
         The north western extent of the property has been mapped within medium potential bushfire
         hazard area while the balance of the allotment is mapped as a potential impact buffer to a
         medium bushfire hazard area under the Noosa Plan 2020. The potential impact buffer area
         extends 100m from the mapped medium bushfire hazard area associated with vegetation to the
         west and adjacent to Noosa Drive as well as vegetation to the east between properties adjoining
         Picture Point Crescent and Alma Way to the east (refer Figure 1).

1.3      STATE PLANNING POLICY BUSHFIRE HAZARD OVERLAY
         Consistent with the Noosa Plan 2020 bushfire hazard overlay, the north western portion of the
         site is mapped as being subject to a medium potential bushfire intensity, while the location of the
         residence and areas immediately adjacent are mapped within a potential impact buffer under the
         State Planning Policy (SPP) bushfire hazard mapping (refer Figure 2).

         Table 1 below details the potential bushfire intensity classes and their corresponding potential
         fire-line intensity (KW/m) values as prescribed within Leonard et. al. 2017.
