RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY – NOT THE FINAL DECISION OF COUNCIL
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING                                                   17 FEBRUARY 2020


         5.     The proposed development is contrary to the Biodiversity Overlay Code as the
                proposal will adversely impact on koala habitat, does not maximise the retention
                of existing vegetation, and proposes to prematurely clear significant vegetation
                inconsistent with the needs of the community.
         6.     The proposed subdivision is contrary to the Reconfiguring a Lot Code as:
                i.    Insufficient provision has been made for walking and cycling linkages with
                      the existing development in the Shire Business Centre as the proposed
                      network and linkages are unable to be implemented.
                ii.   The proposed lot will have a significant adverse impact on the natural
                      environment and will not retain the sites natural environmental values.
         7.     The proposed development is contrary to the Natural Hazards Overlay Code as
                bushfire mitigation measures do not satisfactorily address the risk of bushfire as
                they are not envisaged by the Shire Business Centre Map and are unable to be
                implemented.
         8.     The proposed development is contrary to the draft Noosa Plan provisions, which
                reinforce the current Noosa Plan’s requirements for pedestrian/cycle links, an
                appropriate response to the site’s natural hazards and protection of the site’s
                environmental values including vegetation retention.
    B.   Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
