Log in to see the plans as drawnSustainable Planning Act 2009, removal of development rights can lead to a claim of
injurious affection and compensation. Therefore, if development cannot be avoided, impacts
are to be mitigated and residual impacts are offset. Based on historic evidence, koala
populations in high risk areas (i.e. urban development areas), are unfortunately likely to
decline over time. In 2010 the Queensland Department of Environment and Resource
Management (DERM) published the Koala Coast-Koala Population Report covering
Redlands, Logan and Brisbane City, all areas of significant urban expansion. Their research
revealed that there has been significant decline (68%) in the koala population since 1996.
Where legal mechanisms allow, Noosa Council will continue to apply development control,
with the aim of avoiding and mitigating impacts on koalas.
