1     INTRODUCTION

1.1       Background
This Bushfire Hazard Assessment and Management Plan has been prepared to assess and manage
the degree of potential bushfire risk acting on Lot 2, 4 & 5 on RP172460 & Lot 7 on RP895754
located respectively at 66, 82 & 98 Coveys Rd & 39 Tinbeerwah Rd, Tinbeerwah (herein referred to
as ‘the site’). The report was requested to determine the suitability of a proposed reconfiguration of
lot development application which has been submitted to Noosa Council.

1.2       Development Proposal
The applicant has lodged a boundary realignment reconfiguration of a lot development application
(four into four lots) to Noosa Council (RAL19/0037). The proposal seeks to realign the existing
boundary configuration to enable more suitable building sites within each of the allotments, which
are currently constrained by access issues and significant ecological values. In addition, the
available building areas within the existing allotment configuration are constrained by significant
bushfire hazard and fire management issues. The proposed boundary realignment seeks to provide
suitable building sites which reduce the risk of bushfire impacts to future dwellings and occupants.
The proposed boundary realignment has been provided as Appendix 1.

1.3       The Noosa Shire Council Planning Scheme (The Noosa Plan 2006) 2014 Bushfire
          Hazard Overlay Map
The Noosa Plan 2006 Bushfire Overlay Map (Natural Hazards) depicts the following bushfire prone
areas across the site (refer to Plate 1):
      •    Very High Potential Bushfire Intensity;
      •    High Potential Bushfire Intensity Area; and
      •    Potential Impact Buffer.
Proposed building envelopes are located within the areas mapped as ‘High Potential Bushfire
Intensity Area’ and ‘Potential Impact Buffer’.
