               The following notes are included for guidance and information purposes only and do not form part
               of the assessment manager conditions:
               PLANNING
                      Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003
               1.     There may be a requirement to establish a Cultural Heritage Management Plan and/or obtain
                      approvals pursuant to the Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Act 2003 (ACH Act).
                      The ACH Act establishes a cultural heritage duty of care which provides that: “A person who
                      carries out an activity must take all reasonable and practicable measures to ensure the
                      activity does not harm Aboriginal cultural heritage”. It is an offence to fail to comply with the
                      duty of care. Substantial monetary penalties may apply to individuals or corporations
                      breaching this duty of care. Injunctions may also be issued by the Land and Resources
                      Tribunal, and the Minister administering the ACH Act can also issue stop orders for an activity
                      that is harming or is likely to harm Aboriginal cultural heritage or the cultural heritage value
                      of Aboriginal cultural heritage.
                      You should contact the Cultural Heritage Unit to discuss any obligations under the ACH Act.
                      Equitable Access and Facilities
               2.     The plans for the proposed building work have NOT been assessed for compliance with the
                      requirements of the National Construction Code - Building Code of Australia (Volume 1) as
                      they relate to people with disabilities. Your attention is also directed to the fact that in addition
                      to the requirements of the National Construction Code as they relate to people with
                      disabilities, one or more of the following may impact on the proposed building work:
                      a.      the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Commonwealth);
                      b.      the Anti-Discrimination Act 1991 (Queensland); and



                                                                                                             Page 4 of 7

                      Infrastructure Charges
               3.     All developments and/or changes to existing developments may require payment of
                      “Infrastructure Charges” (as applicable) in accordance with Council’s “Charges Resolution”
                      made pursuant to the planning legislation and regulations current at the time of issue.
                      Property Driveway and Vehicle Crossover
               4.     The planning scheme declares for the construction of a driveway and vehicle crossover to
                      the property to be Accepted Development subject to meeting the requirements of the Low
                      Density Housing Code. If the proposed driveway and vehicle crossover does not comply with
                      each Acceptable Outcomes contained in the Code, a Development Permit for Operational
                      Work is required to be obtained from Council.
