5.2         State Government

5.2.1        Planning Act 2016 - Framework
The Planning Act 2016 provides the statutory planning framework for the State of Queensland. As
outlined within Planning Act 2016 all Local Government Areas must prepare Planning Act 2016
compliance Planning Schemes that advance the purpose of the Act. It is noted that the Noosa
Plan 2020 was prepared in accordance with the Planning Act 2016.

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

5.2.2        State Planning Policies
The State Planning Policy was introduced on 3 July 2017, expressing the state’s interests in land
use planning and development.

Part E of the State Planning Policy outlines the State interest policies and assessment
benchmarks. These policies and assessment benchmarks are applicable to the assessment of
development applications to the extent that the new State Planning Policy has not been identified
in a Planning Scheme as being appropriately integrated.

Section 2.1 of the Noosa Plan 2020 identifies that the State Planning Policy (July 2017) is
appropriately integrated in the Noosa Council’s planning scheme with regards to the majority of
state interests.

Section 2.1.1 specifies state interests that are not integrated or partly integrated in the planning
scheme, which includes the Natural hazards, risk and resilience (coastal hazards - in part). The
editor’s note states that “development in the erosion prone area, as shown in the SPP interactive
mapping system, will be subject to assessment against the assessment benchmarks – natural
hazards, risk and resilience within the State Planning Policy”. As the site is not located in the
