    Footpath Connectivity
    6.   It is advised to enter into discussions with the owner of the Noosa Civic (Lot 3

         provide connectivity to both the Noosa Civic Shopping Centre and the proposed

    Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Levy
    7.   From 1 January 2000, the Building and Construction Industry (Portable Long Service
         Leave) Levy must be paid prior to the issue of a development permit where one is
         required for the 'Building and Construction Industry'. This applies to Building Works,
         Operational Works and Plumbing and Drainage Works applications, as defined under
         the Sustainable Planning Act 2009, where the works are $80,000 or more and
         matching the definition of 'Building and Construction Industry' under the Building and
         Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Act 1991. Council will not be
         able to issue a Decision Notice without receipt of details that the Levy has been paid.

         Construction Industry (Portable Long Service Leave) Act 1991, you should contact

    Co-ordination of Operational Works Assessment
    8.   To assist Council to undertake an integrated assessment of the operational works
         application, all aspects of the works must be included in one (1) application and be in
         accordance with Council’s planning scheme. Additional application fees apply to
         applications where the different aspects of the works are lodged separately.
         Significant savings in application fees will result if all works are lodged in a single
         application.
    Preparation of a Preliminary Construction Management Plan
    9.   The works identified in this Decision Notice will be required to be carried out in
         accordance with a Construction Management Plan endorsed by Council through an
         approval for Operational Works.       To ensure expedient assessment of any
         Operational Works application, the applicant is advised to submit a preliminary
         Construction Management Plan that addresses the requirements of the planning
         scheme. In particular, the preliminary Construction Management Plan should
         address the following:
         (a)   traffic management during all aspects of the construction phase including:
               (i)     a Traffic Management Control Plan in accordance with the Manual of
