9.3.11            Infrastructure Activities Code

9.3.11.1          Application
This code applies to acceptable development which is subject to requirements and to assessable development identified as
requiring assessment against the infrastructure activities code by the tables of assessment in Part 5 (Tables of assessment).

9.3.11.2          Purpose and Overall Outcomes
(1)   The purpose of the Infrastructure Activities code is to ensure major utilities, telecommunications and other infrastructure
      activities:
      (a)   are provided in a coordinated and efficient way to meet the needs of existing and future communities; and
      (b)   are developed and designed in a manner which causes no adverse effects on public health, the environment and the
            amenity of the surrounding premises and local communities.
(2)   The overall outcomes sought for the Infrastructure activities code are:
      (a)   Residents and visitors have access to adequate levels of infrastructure to meet their immediate and future needs.
      (b)   Infrastructure activities are visually integrated with their natural, rural or urban setting and do not adversely affect the
            amenity of the major road network, surrounding sensitive land uses or the rural or residential amenity enjoyed by
            residents and visitors to Noosa.
      (c)   Infrastructure activities do not adversely impact upon community wellbeing and does not pose a threat to public
            health and safety.
      (d)   Where practicable, infrastructure activities are integrated and co­located with other compatible uses and facilities.
      (e)   The design of infrastructure activities incorporates convenient and safe access to the facility.
      (f)   Utility infrastructure and facilities maximise the efficient use of natural resources, including water and energy.
      (g)   Essential infrastructure, telecommunications and major utility infrastructure and facilities are resilient to future
            impacts of climate change and are designed to function during and immediately after flood events.
FOR ACCEPTED DEVELOPMENT
The requirements for Accepted development are the acceptable outcomes listed in the Table of Assessment. Accepted
development that complies with all the acceptable solutions is considered to satisfy the requirements. If development complies
with some, but not all, acceptable outcomes, an application for Code assessment will be necessary and the application will be
assessed against the relevant Performance outcome(s).

FOR ASSESSABLE DEVELOPMENT
Acceptable outcomes are provided for some, but not all, performance outcomes, and identify ways in which performance
outcomes can be met. Compliance with the performance outcome should be demonstrated and the acceptable outcomes are
considered as one way to satisfy the corresponding performance outcome.
