PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                9 FEBRUARY 2021


3.3. State and Other Statutory Instruments
State Planning Policy
The Noosa Plan is generally consistent with the State Planning Policy July 2017 (SPP) and the SPP
raises no further issues relevant to the proposed development.
South East Queensland (SEQ) Regional Plan
The site is located within the Urban Footprint area of the SEQ Regional Plan. The proposal is
consistent with the regional policies of the SEQ Regional Plan.
Planning Regulation 2017
The proposal is for urban activity within the Urban Footprint and is consistent with the assessment
benchmarks contained in the Planning Regulation 2017 for the SEQ Region.
3.4. Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
The application must be assessed against each of the following codes to the extent they are relevant
to the development:
    Tewantin Local Plan Code
    Community Facilities Zone Code
    Special Residential Code
    Driveways and Parking Code
    Earthworks Code
    Existing Services Code
    Landscaping Code
    Water Quality and Drainage Code
Locality Provisions
The subject site is located in the Tewantin Local Plan Area and is zoned Community Facilities. The
proposed use is identified as a consistent use with the zone and is required to follow an impact
assessable application process.
The proposal has been assessed against the Tewantin Local Plan area and is generally consistent
with the purpose of the code. In particular Overall Outcome 7.2.3.2(2)(t) seeks to ensure that land
which is planned for community purposes is protected to enable the efficient delivery of health and
social services. The zoning of the additional parcel, Lot 19 on RP162486 at 4 Carramar Street,
advances this purpose. The provision of carparking on this site is consistent with the intent and
serves to allow efficient development of the remainder of the Carramar land in accordance with
earlier approvals. However, the proposed car parking has the potential to raise amenity and privacy
issues for neighbouring residential properties. This is discussed further in the section below.
No detriment to the visual amenity of the streetscape and gateway into Tewantin is likely to result
from the proposed change.
Land Use & Works Provisions
The application has been assessed against applicable codes. The pertinent issues arising out of the
assessment against the codes are discussed below:
