            Natural Resource         bushland across the SEQ region. Actions contained within the plan

            Noosa Council            The Corporate Plan has set a 20 year goal for environmental
            Corporate Plan 2017-     outcomes and has set a 5 year goal for actions within Key Focus
            2037                     Areas. One goal is to develop the Environment Strategy and
                                     Subordinate plans and strategies.
            Noosa Council            The Environment Strategy provides the overarching guidance for the
            Environment Strategy     development and implementation of a broad range of environment-
            2019                     related plans that contain many of the detailed actions,
                                     responsibilities and timeframes for delivery.
            Noosa Cultural Plan      The Noosa Cultural Plan identified Indigenous Cultural Heritage as a
            2019 - 2023              priority focus area stating that Council will work with Kabi Kabi/Gubbi
                                     Gubbi first nation’s people to increase the awareness and
                                     understanding of our local indigenous cultural heritage. The Bushland
                                     Reserve Strategic Plan contains an objective stating the above.
            Noosa Council            The Environment Levy Policy outlines the environmental and
            Environment Levy         administrative principles that will provide direction for the allocation of
            Policy 20198             Environment Levy funds by Council. This has strong integration with
                                     the Bushland Reserve Strategic Plan with land acquisition and
                                     Environmental Grants program initiatives.
            Noosa Council Open       Whilst not an Action Plan, the Study has strong links and integration
            Space Study 2017         with the Bushland Reserves Strategic Plan and is the guiding
                                     document for the generation of new reserves through the auditing
                                     and development assessment process.

            Noosa Local              The Biosecurity Plan contains Noosa Council’s strategic actions for
            Government Area Draft    the management of high priority pest plants and animals within the
            Biosecurity Plan 2019-   Noosa Shire Area.
            2024                     Several Actions with direct application to the Noosa Bushland
                                     Reserves Strategic Plan exist within the Plan. Relevant priorities,
                                     objectives and actions have been directly integrated into the Plan
                                     Actions listed in Section 10 of this Plan.
            Noosa Bushland           The Noosa Bushland Reserve Fire Management Plan has identified
            Reserve Fire             30 Reserves over 10ha in size for specific fire management activities.
            Management Plan          While this plan is relevant, an alternate fire management planning
                                     arrangement is recommended within this plan moving forward.
            Noosa Shire Koala        The Noosa Shire Koala Conservation Plan identified a number of
            Conservation Plan        actions that have direct implementation within the bushland reserve
            2016                     network planning and implementation process.
            Tree Management on       This policy applies to all Council public land including parks, road
            Public Land Policy       reserves and other council owned land including community facilities.
            2018                     The policy states: i) Trees are valuable assets and must be managed
                                     accordingly; ii) Council maintains a general commitment to the
                                     sustainable management of trees on public land and also the
                                     greening of open space; and iii) Unavoidable removal of trees from
                                     public land may be offset with planting to ensure there is no net loss
                                     of trees on Council controlled land.
                                     Offset Sites are likely to be within the Bushland Reserve Network.
