REPORT
1.   PROPOSAL
The applicant is seeking retrospective approval for a Material Change of Use for a Depot and
Operational Works for removal of vegetation on Lot 157. Vegetation was removed to construct a
depot (shed) for the storage of boats for the Queensland Boating and Fisheries Patrol (QBFP) in
2017. The newly constructed shed replaced a boat shed originally constructed in 1974. The new
shed has a larger footprint and is greater in height than the previous one to accommodate fixed
canopy marine vessels. Refer to Figure 1 – New boat shed.
