Log in to see the plans as drawn Part 4 Local Government Infrastructure Plan
4.1 Preliminary
(1) This local government infrastructure plan has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Planning Act 2016.
(2) The purpose of the local government infrastructure plan is to:
(a) integrate infrastructure planning with the land use planning identified in the planning scheme
(b) provide transparency regarding a local government’s intentions for the provision of trunk infrastructure
(c) enable a local government to estimate the cost of infrastructure provision to assist its long term financial planning
(d) ensure that trunk infrastructure is planned and provided in an efficient and orderly manner.
(e) provide a basis for the imposition of conditions about infrastructure on development approvals.
(3) The local government infrastructure plan:
(a) states in Section 4.2 (planning assumptions) the assumptions about future growth and urban development including the
assumptions of demand for each trunk infrastructure network
(b) identifies in Section 4.3 (priority infrastructure area) the prioritised area to accommodate urban growth up to 2031
(c) states in Section 4.4 (desired standards of service) for each trunk infrastructure network the desired standard of
performance
(d) identifies in Section 4.5 (plans for trunk infrastructure) the existing and future trunk infrastructure for the following networks:
(i) stormwater
(ii) transport
(iii) parks and land for community facilities
(e) provides a list of supporting documents that assist in the interpretation of the local government infrastructure plan in the
Editor’s note – Extrinsic material at the end of Section 4.
(f) this local government infrastructure plan excludes water supply and sewerage networks as these networks are the
responsibility of Unitywater as distributorretailer and are subject to their Netserv Plan.
4.2 Planning assumptions
(1) The planning assumptions state the assumptions about:
(a) population and employment growth
(b) the type, scale, location and timing of development including the demand for each trunk infrastructure network
(2) The planning assumptions together with the desired standards of service form a basis for the planning of the trunk infrastructure
networks and the determination of the priority infrastructure area.
(3) The planning assumptions have been prepared for:
(a) the base date (2016) and the following projection years to accord with future Australian Bureau of Statistics census years:
(i) mid (2021)
(ii) mid (2026)
(iii) mid (2031)
(b) the LGIP development types in column 2 that include the uses in column 3 of Table 4.2.
(c) the projection areas identified on Local Government Infrastructure Plan Maps LGIPPIASC1 to LGIPPIASC11 Priority
Infrastructure Area and Service Catchments in Schedule 3 —Local government infrastructure plan mapping and tables.
(4) Details of the methodology used to prepare the planning assumptions are stated in the extrinsic material.

Section 12
Part 5 Tables of Assessment
5.1 Preliminary
The tables in this part identify the category of development, and the category of assessment and assessment benchmarks for
assessable development in the planning scheme area, as well as any relevant requirements for accepted development.
5.2 Reading the tables
The tables identify the following:
(1) the category of development:
(a) prohibited;
(b) accepted, including accepted with requirements; and
(c) assessable development code or impact.
(2) the category of assessment, code or impact, for assessable development in:
(a) a zone and, where used, a precinct of a zone; and
(b) an overlay where used.
(3) the assessment benchmarks for assessable development and requirements for accepted development, including:
(a) whether a zone code or specific provisions in the zone code apply (shown in the ‘assessment benchmarks’ column);
(b) whether a local plan code or specific provisions in the local plan code apply (shown in the ‘assessment benchmarks’
column); and
(c) whether an overlay code applies or specific provisions in the overlay code apply (shown in the ‘assessment benchmarks’
column).
(d) any other applicable code(s) (shown in the ‘assessment benchmarks’ column).
Editor's note: Where Acceptable Outcomes (AOs) are listed as requirements for accepted development, if all the subsections of
an AO against a particular Performance Outcome apply (for example AO1.1, AO1.2, AO1.3) only the parent AO number is listed
(AO1). If subnumbers appear it means not all the AOs against that specific Performance Outcome apply, just those listed.
(4) any variation to the category of assessment (shown as an ‘if’ in the ‘category of assessment’ column) that applies to the
development.
Note—Development will only be taken to be prohibited development under the planning scheme if it is identified as prohibited development in schedule
10 of the Regulation.
Editor's Note—Examples of matters that can vary the category of assessment are gross floor area, lot size, or precinct provisions.
5.3 Categories of development and assessment
5.3.1 Process for determining the category of development and the category of
assessment for assessable development
The process for determining a category of development and category of assessment is:
(1) for a material change of use, establish the use by reference to the use definitions in Schedule 1 Definitions.
(2) for all development, identify the following:
(a) the zone or zone precinct that applies to the premises, by reference to the zone map in Schedule 2 Mapping
(b) if an overlay applies to the premises, by reference to the overlay maps in Schedule 2 Mapping.
(3) determine if the development is accepted development under schedule 6 of the Regulation
Editor's Note—Schedule 6 of the Regulation prescribes development that a planning scheme can not state is assessable development where the
matters identified in the schedule are met.
(4) determine if the development is assessable development under schedule 10 of the Regulation Part 112 and 1421.
(5) Otherwise, determine the initial category of assessment by reference to the tables in:
NOOSA PLAN 2020 Page 1 of 123
Section 13
(a) Section 5.5 Categories of development and assessment—Material change of use
(b) Section 5.6 Categories of development and assessment—Reconfiguring a lot
(c) Section 5.7 Categories of development and assessment—Building work
(d) Section 5.8 Categories of development and assessment—Operational work
(6) a precinct of a zone may change the categories of development or assessment and this will be shown in the ‘category of
assessment’ column of the tables in sections 5.5 Categories of development and assessment Material change of use.
(7) if an overlay applies, refer to Section 5.9 Category of development and assessment—Overlays, to determine if the overlay further
changes the category of development or assessment.
5.3.2 Determining the category of development and categories of assessment
(1) A material change of use is assessable development requiring impact assessment:
(a) unless the table of assessment states otherwise
(b) if a use is not listed or defined
(c) unless otherwise prescribed within the Act or the Regulation.
(2) Reconfiguring a lot is assessable development requiring code assessment unless the tables of assessment state otherwise or
unless otherwise prescribed within the Act or the Regulation.
(3) Building work and operational work are accepted development, unless the tables of assessment state otherwise or unless
otherwise prescribed within the Act or the Regulation.
(4) Where development is proposed on premises which are included in more than one zone or overlay, the category of assessment
which applies is the highest category for a zone or an overlay in which the development or any aspect of the development is to
occur.
Editor's Note—For example, if premises are included in the Rural zone and the Environmental management and conservation zone and a Biodiversity
overlay applies to that part of the premises included in the Environmental management and conservation zone, where development or any aspect of
development is only proposed in the Rural zone part of the premises, then the category of assessment is that applicable to the Rural zone only.
(5) Where development is proposed on premises partly affected by an overlay, the category of development or assessment for the
overlay only relates to the part of the premises affected by the overlay.
(6) For the purposes of schedule 6, Part 2 Material change of use section 2 (2)(d) of the Regulation, an overlay does not apply to the
premises if the development meets the acceptable outcomes that form the requirements for accepted development in the relevant
overlay code.
(7) If development is identified as having a different category of development or category of assessment under a zone than under an
overlay , the highest category of development or assessment applies as follows:
(a) accepted development subject to requirements prevails over accepted development
(b) code assessment prevails over accepted development where subject to requirements and accepted development
(c) impact assessment prevails over code assessment, accepted development where subject to requirements and accepted
development.
(8) Despite subsubsections 5.3.2 (4) and (7) above, a category of assessment in a zone and a category of assessment in an overlay
overrides a category of assessment in a zone or local plan.
(9) Provisions of Part 10 Other plans section may override any of the above.
(10) The category of development prescribed under Schedule 6 of the Regulation override all other categories of development or
assessment for that development under the planning scheme to the extent of any inconsistency.
Editor's Note—There are no provisions in Part 10.

schedule may still be made assessable under the planning scheme.
(11) Despite all of the above, if development is listed as prohibited development under schedule 10 of the Regulation, a development
application cannot be made.
Note—Development is to be taken to be prohibited development under the planning scheme only if it is identified in schedule 10 of the Regulation.

Section 14
5.3.3 Determining the requirements for accepted development and assessment
benchmarks and other matters for assessable development
(1) Accepted development does not require a development approval and is not subject to assessment benchmarks. However, certain
requirements may apply to some types of development for it to be accepted development. Where nominated in the tables of
assessment, accepted development must comply with the requirements identified as acceptable outcomes in the relevant parts of
the applicable code(s) as identified in the relevant column.
(2) Accepted development that does not comply with one or more of the nominated acceptable outcomes in the relevant parts of the
applicable code(s) becomes code assessable development unless otherwise specified.
(3) The following rules apply in determining assessment benchmarks for each category of development and assessment:
(4) Code assessable development:
(a) is to be assessed against all the assessment benchmarks identified in the assessment benchmarks column;
(b) that occurs as a result of development becoming code assessable pursuant to subsection 5.3.3(2), must:
(i) be assessed against the assessment benchmarks for the development application, limited to the subject matter of
the required acceptable outcomes that were not complied with or were not capable of being complied with under
subsection 5.3.3(2)
(ii) comply with all required acceptable outcomes identified in subsection 5.3.3(1), other than those mentioned in sub
section 5.3.3(2);
(c) that complies with the performance or acceptable outcomes complies with the purpose and overall outcomes of the code;
(d) is to be assessed against any assessment benchmarks for the development identified in section 26 of the Regulation.
Editor's Note—Section 27 of the Regulation identifies the matters code assessment must have regard to.
(5) Impact assessable development:
(a) is to be assessed against the identified assessment benchmarks in the assessment benchmarks column (where
relevant)
(b) is to be assessed having regard to the whole of the planning scheme, to the extent relevant
(c) is to be assessed against any assessment benchmarks for the development identified in section 30 of the Regulation
Note—The first row of each table of assessment is to be checked to confirm if there are assessment benchmarks that commonly apply to general
scenarios in the zone, local plan or overlay.
Editor's Note—Section 31 of the Regulation identifies the matters that impact assessment must have regard to.
