GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                      28 APRIL 2014



The following provides an assessment against section 388 of the Act.

Consistency with The Noosa Plan & State Policies/Regulations

State Planning Policies
The applicable SPPs have been deemed by the Minister for Local Government and Planning as
being appropriately reflected in Council’s planning scheme and therefore do not warrant a
separate assessment. In addition, the recently adopted Single State Planning Policy does not
apply, as it came into effect after the application had entered the decision period.

South East Queensland Regional Plan
The site is located within the urban footprint of the South East Queensland Regional Plan. The
proposal is for urban development within the footprint and is consistent with the regional land use
intent, regional policies and desired regional outcomes.

South East Queensland Koala Conservation State Planning Regulatory Provisions
The site is located outside of the Koala Assessable Development Area and does not warrant
assessment against the regulatory provisions.

The Noosa Plan
The application was lodged and assessed under the Superseded Planning Scheme and The
Noosa Hill Development Control Plan. The provisions of the Superseded Scheme and The
Noosa Plan are not dissimilar. The Noosa Plan includes the 1.8ha site in a number of zones,
including the Detached Housing (2,481m2), Attached Housing (2,068m2) and Open Space
Conservation (1.34ha) zones (see Attachment 1 – Zone Map).

An assessment of the approved development against the key technical provisions of The Noosa
Plan is outlined below:
