The Bruce Highway is approximately 250m to the east of the site, with underpass and access
ramps located 1km to the north along Holts Road. The highway access and egress is currently
being upgraded as part of the highway upgrade works. An industrial estate, known as Nandroya
Estate, sits 600m to the north between the site and the highway access. Development has
occurred on one of the 5 existing lots.
3.   ASSESSMENT
3.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
    State Planning Policy;
    South East Queensland Regional Plan;
    Planning Regulation 2017;
    The Noosa Plan 2020.
3.2. State and Other Statutory Instruments
State Planning Policy
The Noosa Plan is generally consistent with the State Planning Policy July 2017 (SPP) and the
SPP raises no further issues relevant to the proposed development.
South East Queensland (SEQ) Regional Plan
The site is located within the Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area (RLRPA) of the SEQ
Regional Plan. Whilst the application proposes an urban activity in the RLRPA, the SEQ Regional
Plan envisages some small scale tourist parks in the rural area to support the tourism industry.
The proposal is therefore consistent with the SEQ Regional Plan provisions.
