Do you currently own or rent property in the Noosa Shire area? Or perhaps you want to own or rent or develop property in the Noosa Council local government area in the next 7 to 10 years?
From Friday 15th February, 2019 until Monday 20th May, 2019 Noosa Council want the public’s written feedback in response to Council’s draft new planning scheme for the whole of the Noosa local government area.
This draft new planning scheme represents what Noosa Council in consultation with the Queensland Government, should control not only new development at a local government level, but also what controls and guidance should be used to assesses any proposals that may materially change the existing use of current properties to varying degrees. These variations can extend from uses a bedroom in an existing dwelling to offer short term accommodation to demolishing several existing dwellings to construct a home unit complex or retirement village.
There has never been a more critical time to provide Noosa Council with your feedback on how you want the Noosa local government area to change over the next 7 to 10 years.
Feedback is required to follow what may appear to be a basic format as identified by Noosa Council during its public display of Council’s draft new Noosa planning scheme. For the public’s feedback to have the most chance of influencing Noosa Council and possibly the Queensland government, it should be compiled in a manner that understands the opportunities and constraints of governments when compiling planning schemes. This may include an detailed appreciation of an array of State legislation, policies and/or codes as well as the ability to quote relevant examples that support that feedback whether these examples are in the Noosa Council local government area or not.
