Covering Letter

At least 20% of the site area is provided as soft landscaping with the principal
area of landscaping provided at the rear of the property where the existing
pandanus in the north eastern corner of the site will be retained.

Some minor earthworks are proposed and a geo technical report is currently
being prepared by Golders Associates to demonstrate that there is no risk of
landslide emanating from this work. This report will be submitted to Council as
soon as it is available.



4.0    Statutory Assessment

4.1    Sustainable Planning Act 2009

The Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (SPA) provides the overall statutory planning
framework for Queensland. The subject site is currently located within the local
government boundaries of Sunshine Coast Regional Council and the
development application is subject to the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2006.
Based on the relevant provisions of the Planning Scheme the proposed
development requires code assessment and those matters which the
Assessment Manager must have regard to when assessing the application are
set out in section 313 of SPA.

4.2    State Regulatory Provisions, State Planning Policy & State Development
       Assessment Provisions

Under the provisions of SPA the Assessment Manager must give consideration to
any relevant State Regulatory Provisions (SRP), State Planning Policy and State
Development Assessment Provisions (SDAP).

4.2.1 South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009 – 2031 (SEQRP)
Figure 3 illustrates that the site forms part of the Urban Footprint in the SEQRP.
The proposed development is consistent with this designation and does not
trigger assessment against the regulatory provision of the Regional Plan.

4.2.2 State Planning Policy
The State Planning Policy Mapping illustrates that the site forms part of the
following:

           coastal zone;

           coastal management district;

           climatic regions (stormwater management design);

           flood hazard area; and

           coastal hazard (erosion prone area).
