SERVICES & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                          10 APRIL 2018


       ii.    For Subordinate Local Law No. 2 (Animal Management) 2015 and Subordinate Local
              Law No. 3 (Community and Environmental Management) 2015, update the proposed
              amended definition of ‘urban area’ to reflect the following – “Urban area” means the
              area within the “urban footprint” as that expression is defined in the South East
              Queensland Regional Plan 2017 (“the SEQ Regional Plan”) and more precisely
              defined in the maps that accompany the SEQ Regional Plan, including the maps
              titled SEQ Regional Plan 2017 Regulatory Map SEQ RP1 and SEQ Regional Plan
              2017 Regulatory Map SEQ RP 4.
D.     Note that Council will comply with the procedures prescribed under section 15 of the Local
       Government Regulation 2012 to review the possible anti-competitive provisions in the
       proposed amending local laws;
E.     Note that Council will consult with the public about the proposed amending local laws for at
       least 21 days and comply with the requirements of the public consultation process as
       outlined in the local law making process;
F.     Authorise the CEO to make any minor formatting amendments to the proposed amending
       local laws (if required) prior to the public consultation.

Finance
It is not considered that the proposed amendments will have a significant impact on Council or
the community from a financial perspective.

Risks & Opportunities
It is considered prudent to ensure that Council’s local laws remain current and effective in order
to achieve the strategic compliance and enforcement objectives of Council. Ensuring that Council
has a practical and relevant local law system in place further protects the Noosa community.

Consultation
External Consultation - Community & Stakeholder
King and Company Lawyers have been engaged by Council to assist with the local law
amendment process and drafting the amending local laws.

Internal Consultation
The development of the proposed amending local laws has involved internal consultation with a
number of operational areas across Council and the project group, which includes Council’s
Local Law Manager, Waste and Environmental Health Manager, Waste and Environmental
Health Coordinator, Manager Development Assessment, and Director Community Services.
