2. Introduction

This proposal report accompanies a development application over part of the land at Stotts Road, Racecourse as identified on Figure 1 – Location Map to this report.

The proposed development involves establishing an area for the warehousing and storage.

Under the applicable planning scheme (Mackay City Planning Scheme), the subject site is located within the Mackay Hinterland Locality, and is included within the Rural Zone. The proposed use does not fit within existing definitions in Schedule 1 “Dictionary” of Council’s Planning Scheme and so therefore Under the Mackay City Plan, an application for a Material Change of Use for other uses not defined is impact assessable development within the Rural Zone. Section 313 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (SPA) prescribes the requirements for Impact assessment generally.

Accordingly, the applicant is seeking a Development Permit for Material Change of Use to undertake the proposed development.

This Proposal Report has been prepared as supporting material to accompany the application for a Material Change of Use.

2.1 Pre-Lodgement Advice

At a meeting held with Council officers on the 16 November 2010 it was indicated to the Applicants representatives that:

The proposal would require an Impact Assessable development application;

Infrastructure Contributions Applicable to the proposal would potentially include a Transport Network Contribution and Parkland Contribution.

In relation to the former, this development application comprises an Impact Assessable application in accordance with the SPA 2009.

In relation to the latter, the only applicable infrastructure contribution in the Applicants opinion is the Transport Network Contribution, which should be applied at a reduced rate. Reasons for this proposed reduction are:

1. The amount of traffic generated by the proposed development is minimal as compared to a general industry type development in the industrial zone.

2. In general, machinery will be used off-site for extended periods.

3. The current state of the road is a gravel road and the proposed use not have a minor trip generation.

4. The Proposed Development

4.1 Proposal Overview

The proposed development involves a Material Change of Use for General Industry, and includes:

Area for storage, including 12m x 6m Site Offices

1,000 sqm machinery enclosure; and

10 Car Parks;

The total use area is approximately 0.9935ha.

The sole purpose for the machinery enclosure will be for storage of machinery used as part of the business.

Seaforth Civil and Plant Contractors will be the sole occupant on the site and will store some machinery on the subject site, from time to time while it is not in use.

It is expected that the majority of the time machinery will be in operation on construction sites associated with the businesses operations and will be located on such sites.

Staff

Staff employed by Seaforth Civil and Plant Contractors will be operating equipment off-site and sometimes transport equipment to and from the site. Staff on site will be minimal.

Hours of Operation

The proposal will be operated during normal work hours.

Lighting & Security

Security lighting will be erected within the compound.

Public access to the facility will be controlled via a lockable gates located at the property entrance and security fencing around the perimeter of the property.

4.2 Defined & Proposed Use

The definition for General Industry as per the Consolidated Mackay Planning Scheme 2009 is as follows:

“General Industry” means any premises used for any industrial activity which is not separately defined in this section.

It is considered the proposal meets the standard definition for general industry as there is no definition in the Planning Scheme for storage of machinery. For the clarity purposes the General Industry definition has been expanded to become ‘General Industry (Warehouse and Storage)’. This is considered adequate for Council to confine the use in any decision notice.

The subject site is approximately 300 metres to the closest residential dwelling.

The buildings and storage items onsite will be setback from the boundaries side boundaries of the site.

All buildings will be setback 6 metres from the road frontage.

4.5 Access and Car Parking

Access to the site will be via the existing access point in the south western corner of the site.

The access will be constructed to Council’s required standard. A lockable gate will be provided at the property entrance to restrict public access.

Car parking ratio is at the discretion of Council. A car parking area for ten (10) or more vehicles is indicated on the Proposal Plan (Appendix B).

4.7 Landscaping

No landscaping is proposed. The subject site is located as an isolated lot within the rural zone.

4.8 Noise Impacts

Noise impacts to adjacent sensitive receptors will be naturally attenuated by distance. The nearest dwelling is approximately 300 metres to the west.

4.9 Air Quality Impacts

No air quality impacts are expected.

4.10 Residential Amenity Impact

As demonstrated above, the nearest dwelling adjoining the site is 300m away. Accordingly, there is expected to be minimal impacts on residential amenity. Other uses such as the Mill would represent a greater impact than the proposed development.

6.1 State Planning Regulatory Provisions A State planning regulatory provision is a statutory planning instrument made under SPA to advance the purpose of SPA by—

(a) providing regulatory support for regional planning or master planning; or (b) providing for a charge for the supply of infrastructure; or (c) protecting planning scheme areas from adverse impacts.

To date no State planning regulatory provision has been implemented for the Mackay Whitsunday region.

6.2 Regional Plan

The assessment manager must assess the application against the regional plan for the region, to the extent it is not identified in the planning scheme as being appropriately reflected in the planning scheme.

Page 19: DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION Stotts Road, Ra€¦ · appendix b – plans of development appendix c – certificate of title appendix d – registered survey plan and smart map appendix

Stotts Road, Racecourse - TOWN PLANNING REPORT

HUMPHREYS REYNOLDS PERKINS NORTH QLD PLANNING CONSULTANTS December 2010 – 10NQ130 Page 10

The regional plan is the Whitsunday, Hinterland and Mackay Regional Plan endorsed by the Whitsunday, Hinterland and Mackay Regional Planning Advisory Committee and local governments in the region and released in 2006. The regional plan is non-statutory and does not have legislative power.

The proposed use will not impact on adjoining land. Accordingly, the development will not impact on the vision of the regional plan.

6.3 State Planning Policies A State planning policy is an instrument made under SPA which advances the purpose of the Act by stating the State’s policy about a matter of State interest. State Planning Policies which have been identified in the planning scheme as being appropriately reflected in the planning scheme do not require further assessment pursuant to an IDAS application. With regards to the remaining State planning policies which have not been identified as being appropriately reflected in the planning scheme, no policy has been identified which is relevant to the proposal.

6.4 The Mackay Planning Scheme

Detailed assessment against the relevant assessment criteria is provided in Appendix F. A summary of the assessment against each relevant part is provided below.

6.4.1 Desired Environmental Outcomes

Relevant DEOs are addressed below:

(a) Biodiversity and Habitat/Natural Features – the proposed site is not within vicinity of any significant areas or corridors, and will not create any detrimental impacts beyond the site.

(b) Cultural Heritage & Landscape Character – the use will not impact on any cultural heritage or landscape character areas.

(c) Economic Development – as the use is effectively isolated from surrounding Cane farms via adjacent tramways and Stotts Road, it will not result in any long term loss or alienation of agricultural land.

(d) Amenity and Community Well-Being – potential impacts to community well-being are discussed herein, and will be minor.

(e) Infrastructure and Urban Growth – the development will have no impact on infrastructure or urban growth.

Therefore the development is consistent with each of the Desired Environmental Outcomes.

6.4.2 Mackay Hinterland Locality Code

The proposed development meets the Overall Outcomes and each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and associated solutions of the Mackay Hinterland Locality Code.

Specific outcomes and associated Probable solutions relating to the development are addressed in Appendix F – Compliance Statement.

HUMPHREYS REYNOLDS PERKINS NORTH QLD PLANNING CONSULTANTS December 2010 – 10NQ130 Page 11

6.4.3 Rural Zone Code

The proposed development meets the Overall Outcomes and each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and associated solutions of the Rural Zone in the Mackay Hinterland Locality Code, except for Overall Outcome 2(c) and related Specific Outcome P5.

The Overall Outcome 2(c) and Specific Outcome P5 require that Non-rural activities do not occur on land included in the Rural Zone.

However, the proposed use is considered to comply when consideration is granted to the isolated nature of the site from surrounding farming operations due to the location of the site between two cane tramlines and Stotts Road. The subject site in itself is 0.9935 hectares and is not considered to be conducive to cane farming operations due to size, location and restrictions of surrounding development. Therefore efficient use of the land would be for a use that is not adversely impacted upon by the Racecourse Mill operations and associated infrastructure and presents no impact to such operations.

The proposed General Industry (Warehouse and Storage) land use will not generate significant traffic and will simply involve storage of machinery associated with Seaforth Civil and Plant operations.

The current enquiry by design process being undertaken over Ooralea, which designates the subject site as industry; warrants approval of the proposal notwithstanding the Rural Zoning of the land.

Specific outcomes and associated Probable solutions relating to the development are addressed in Appendix F – Compliance Statement.

6.4.4 Industrial Code

The proposed development meets the Overall Outcomes and each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and associated solutions of the Industrial Code.

Specific outcomes and associated Probable solutions relating to the development are addressed in Appendix F – Compliance Statement.

6.4.5 Environment and Infrastructure Code

The proposed development meets the Overall Outcomes and each of the relevant Specific Outcomes and associated solutions of the Environment and Infrastructure Code.

Specific outcomes and associated Probable solutions relating to the development are addressed in Appendix F – Compliance Statement.
