4. LOCAL PLANNING MATTERS

4.1 LEVEL OF ASSESSMENT & STRATEGIC FRAMEWORK
The proposed development includes a material change of use requiring code assessment
against the Noosa Plan 2020.

The following codes are applicable:
   -   Rural Zone Code
   -   Low Density Housing Code


4.2 OVERLAYS
The subject site is burdened by the following overlays, as identified by the overlay maps of the
Noosa Plan:

   -   Agricultural Land Overlay

       The Noosa Plan does not include an Agricultural Land overlay code. The relevant corresponding
       performance criteria are located within the Rural Zone Code (PO2 & PO8). There is no change to
       the level of assessment.

   -   Bushfire Hazard Overlay

       Part 5.9 of the Noosa Plan does not include the Bushfire overlay code as an assessment
       benchmark for a Dwelling house use. The relevant corresponding performance criteria are
       located within the Low Density Housing Code (PO15). There is no change to the level of
       assessment.

   -   Biodiversity, Waterways and Welands Overlay

       The proposed dwelling footprint is located outside of the Biodiversity, Waterways and Welands
       overlay and therefore the overlay code is not an assessment benchmark. There is no change to
       the level of assessment. .

   -   Landslide Hazard Overlay

       Part 5.9 of the Noosa Plan does not include the Landslide Hazard overlay code as an
       assessment benchmark for a Dwelling house use. The relevant corresponding performance
       criteria are located within the Low Density Housing Code (PO22). There is no change to the level
       of assessment.
