 VIRIDIAN NOOSA - PROPOSAL REPORT




                                 
   Natural Hazards (Landslide and Flood) Overlay; and

                                 
   Natural Hazards (Bushfire and Acid Sulfate Soil) Overlay.

                    Each Overlay Map included in the planning scheme is supported by an Assessment
                    Table which, in some instances, alters the level of assessment that would otherwise
                    apply to development in a particular Zone, along with an Overlay Code containing
                    specific development assessment criteria which apply to development on land
                    affected by the Overlay.

                    The Assessment Table for the Biodiversity Overlay lists the proposed development
                    as exempt development as the relevant criteria for code assessment do not
                    otherwise apply.
                    The Assessment Table for the Natural Hazard Overlay specifies the proposed
                    development as code assessable development as the subject site is identified as a
                    Landslide Hazard Area and a Bushfire Hazard Area (Medium Bushfire Area) on the
                    relevant Overlay Maps.

                    The development assessment provisions for development on a site affected by the
                    Biodiversity Overlay, Natural Hazards (Landslide and Flood) Overlay, and Natural
                    Hazards (Bushfire and Acid Sulfate Soil) Overlay do not apply to the proposed
                    development as the subject site is not designated as being prone to flooding or
                    subject to acid sulfate soils, the proposed development does not alter the built form
                    of the existing approved resort or the vegetation and landscaping on the subject
                    site and therefore does not therefore increase the risk to people, property and the
                    natural environment from natural hazards.



   4.4.6            Use Codes and Works Codes
                    The planning scheme includes a suite of Use Codes and Works Codes which apply
                    specifically to development of a stated purpose or type.        The development
                    application is subject to the procedures of Impact Assessment under the Noosa
                    Shire Council Planning Scheme. The following Use Codes and Works Codes, or
                    parts thereof, are therefore considered relevant to the assessment of this Material
                    Change of Use application:-

                             Use Codes

                             
        Residential Uses Code;

                             Works Codes

                             
        Driveways and Carparking Code;

                    The Visitor Accommodation Code has not been addressed in this Report as it was
                    addressed in full as part of the development approval for the Resort. Similarly, the
                    Landscaping Code and the Engineering Works Code (except the Driveways and
                    Carparking Code) have not been addressed as the proposed development
                    comprises a change of use only.         No change to the existing built form or
                    infrastructure services provide as part of the approved Resort are required or
                    proposed as part of the proposed development.
