3.0 The Proposal
This application is for a Development Permit - Material Change of Use for a Dwelling House. The
subject site is 78 Davis Road, Cootharaba QLD 4565, (3 SP 139163). The site is located in the Rural
Zone.
This code assessable application is triggered because the dwelling will be located within 200m of
agricultural land. The dwelling has been positioned in the middle of the site to ensure ample
setbacks to adjoining properties are provided. The dwelling will not impact on the quality of the
agricultural land and as it is an accepted use within the zone should be supported by Council.

4.0 Town Planning Assessment Framework
       4.1        State Legislation
           4.1.1      Planning Act 2016
The Planning Act 2016 identifies that a development approval is required for development
categorised as assessable development by a categorising instrument under the Act (Chapter 3, Part
1, section 43 - 44).
The development application is subject to code assessment, and therefore the assessment
benchmarks, and matters that the assessment manager must have regard to, are those identified
in section 45(3) of the Planning Act 2016 and sections 26 and 27 of the Planning Regulation 2017.
In accordance with the Planning Act 2016, an application must be assessed against the following
assessment benchmarks:

              •   State Planning Policy;
              •   Regional Plan;
              •   Planning Scheme;
              •   Temporary Local Planning Instrument;
              •   Planning Scheme Policy.

The proposal will be assessed in accordance with the Development Assessment Rules under
section 68(1) of the Planning Act 2016.


         4.1.2     State Planning Policy (SPP)
The State Planning Policy provides a comprehensive set of State interest statements and
assessment benchmarks in order to guide land use planning for both Local and State Government.
The State Planning Policy includes sixteen state interests that are arranged under five broad
themes:

              •   Liveable Communities and Housing;
              •   Economic Growth;
              •   Environment and Heritage;
              •   Safety and Resilience to Hazards; and
              •   Infrastructure

An assessment of the proposed development has been carried out and it has been determined that
the proposed development does not require further assessment against the State Planning Policy.


          4.1.3         South East Queensland Regional Plan 2017
The subject site is located within the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2017. The site is included
in the Urban Footprint of the South East Queensland Regional Plan. The intent of the Urban
Footprint is to accommodate the region’s urban growth needs and includes a range of urban uses
such as housing, industry, businesses, infrastructure, community facilities and urban open space.

The Assessment Manager must refer to the Regional Plan if it is identified as being inadequately
reflected in the Planning Scheme. The South East Regional Plan is adequately reflected within the
Strategic Framework of the Planning Scheme.


           4.1.4        State Development Assessment Provisions (SDAP)
State Interest Mapping has been reviewed in accordance with the relevant requirements of the
Planning Act 2016. This review has confirmed that the proposed development does not require
referral to any referral, advice or concurrence agencies


       4.2      Local Government Legislation
          4.2.1       Noosa Shire Council Planning Scheme Provisions
