5.2.2. Referral Agencies
The application requires referral under Schedule 10 of the Planning Regulation 2017. Schedule 10, part 9, division
4 – State Transport Infrastructure, Table 1 Reconfiguring a lot near a state transport corridor. The application
includes an additional access to a State controlled road and as such requires a referral to the Department of
Transport and Main Roads. A response to the relevant SDAP Code is provided in Appendix E.

5.2.3. State Planning Policy
The Planning Regulation 2017 (s.26(2)(a)(ii)) requires the assessment manager to assess the application against the
assessment benchmark states in the State Planning Policy (SPP, July 2017), Part E, to the extent Part E is not
identified in the Planning scheme as being appropriately integrated in the Planning Scheme.
As outlined in Part 2 of the Planning Scheme the current SPP has been adopted into the Planning Scheme to the
extent the site is mapped by the relevant State interests. No further assessment of the proposed development
against the State Planning Policies is required.

5.2.4. South East Queensland Regional Plan
The site is located within the rural living area of the South East Queensland Regional Plan (Figure 3). The rural living
area consolidates rural residential development in suitable locations. The proposed 1 into 2 supports the intent for
the rural living area in Shaping SEQ as the land is already zoned for rural residential purposes in the planning
scheme.
