3.1     STATE GOVERNMENT CONSIDERATIONS

3.1.1 Planning Act 2016
In accordance with the provisions of the Planning Act 2016, the application is for Building Work (Development
Permit). The subject application is subject to Code Assessment.

3.1.2 South East Queensland Regional Plan
Under the South East Queensland Regional Plan, the subject site is included within the Urban Footprint. The
Urban Footprint identifies land predominantly allocated to provide for the region’s urban development needs.

The Regulatory provisions of the South East Queensland Regional Plan do not apply to the site as it is
contained within the Urban Footprint.

3.1.3 State Planning Policy
The current state interests detailed within the State Planning Policy are listed below:
Liveable communities and housing:
-      Liveable communities
-      Housing supply and diversity
Economic growth:
-      Agriculture
-      Development and construction
-      Mining and extractive resources
-      Tourism
Environment and heritage:
-      Biodiversity
-      Coastal environment
-      Cultural heritage
-      Water quality
Hazards and safety:
-      Emissions and hazardous activities
-      Natural hazards
Infrastructure:
-      Energy and water supply
-      State transport infrastructure
-      Strategic airports and aviation facilities
-      Strategic ports

As identified in Noosa Plan 2020, the Planning Scheme has adopted all elements of the SPP with the exception
of the following:
•    State interest – Natural hazards, risk and resilience – The bushfire prone area in the planning scheme does
     not reflect the State mapping layer.
•    State interest – Strategic airports and aviation facilities – The building restricted area is not identified in the
     planning scheme. State interest policy (4) and Assessment benchmark (5), if the development and
     associated activities within the building restricted area are not addressed via the Australian Noise Exposure
     Forecast (ANEF) contours, obstacle limitation surfaces or height restriction zones, public safety area,
     lighting buffer areas, light restriction zones or wildlife hazard buffer zones.

The site will not compromise the outcomes related to the Strategic Airports and Aviation Facilities mapping
under the SPP. The site is in the potential impact buffer sub-category under both the Noosa Plan 2020 and SPP
mapping and this sub-category does not trigger assessment under the Noosa Plan 2020.
