Advisory Notes: 1. The applicant is to be aware that a Development Permit under the Integrated Planning Act 1997
(IPA) to carry out Operational Works where the total cost of the work, whether directly or indirectly and inclusive of GST is $80,000.00 or more, requires the payment of the Building and Construction Industry Portable Long Service Leave Levy.
Council advises that before a Development Permit, authorizing work is issued, Council has a legal
obligation to ensure applicants under IPA provide proof of payment of the Portable Long Service Leave Levy and the Workplace Health and Safety fee.
2. Interference with meters and fittings (Local Law 24) A person must not:
a) Cover over, fence in, lock, hinder access to or otherwise obstruct or obscure a water meter; or
b) Erect a building or structure over a water meter; or c) Place any goods or materials near a water meter or permit growth of vegetation near a water
meter
In such a manner as to prevent an authorized person from obtaining practicable and convenient access to the meter to read it or for any other lawful purpose.
3. To avoid a surcharge on water used in trade waste areas it is recommended that these areas be placed on a separate internal water meter, otherwise all water within the development is at the surcharge rate.
4. It is advised that each tenancy being required to have a sub metre to the internal water network in
accordance with provisions in the Plumbing and Drainage Act 2002: Queensland Plumbing and Waste Water Code Guidelines.’

6. GROUNDS FOR REFUSAL
1. The development compromises the achievement of Desirable Environmental Outcome: Economic Element (q) ‘The long term viability of agricultural industries on both irrigated and rain fed country and significant animal industries within the Shire is enhanced through measures to protect productive agricultural land from excessive fragmentation and encroachment of incompatible uses’ as set out in the IPA Planning Scheme for Emerald 2007.
2. The development is contrary to State Planning Policy 1/92: ‘Development and the Conservation
of Agricultural Land’ as: a. the common material in the development application does not demonstrate an overriding
need for development in terms of public benefit; and b. the common material does not demonstrate that any other land available within the existing
urban area of Emerald is unsuitable for the development and so necessitates the establishment of the development on this particular site.
3. The development’s masterplan does not make provision of a buffer in accordance with State
Planning Guidelines ‘Separating Agricultural and Residential Land Uses’ to protect sensitive receptor land uses on proposed Lots 154 and 155.
4. The Council does not have enough information to be able to set conditions to ensure that the
development has a Q100 return event protection from flooding.
