CITY PLANNING ITEM 8 SUBMISSION ON THE DRAFT SCENIC RIM PLANNING SCHEME PD113/1275/10

1 BASIS FOR CONFIDENTIALITY

Not Applicable.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Scenic Rim Regional Council (SRRC) has made available their draft Planning Scheme and associated planning scheme policies for public consultation.

The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme plans for population and employment growth for the Scenic Rim region, immediately west of the City of Gold Coast’s border. The draft Planning Scheme replaces the existing planning schemes that apply to the former Beaudesert Shire, Boonah Shire and Ipswich City local government areas within the Scenic Rim region.

City officers have reviewed the draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme and are generally supportive of the policy and provisions. A number of cross border planning matters have been identified; and, it is proposed that a submission be made by the City of Gold Coast (City) to ensure these cross border issues are considered, both in the final Planning Scheme, and in the future collaboration between SRRC and the City.

The City’s submission on the draft Planning Scheme is due by 14 December 2018.

3 PURPOSE OF REPORT

The purpose of this report is to seek endorsement to make a submission on the draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme.

4 PREVIOUS RESOLUTIONS

Not Applicable.

5 DISCUSSION

5.1 Background

In March 2013, SRRC commenced preparation of a new Planning Scheme. The new Planning Scheme replaces the existing planning schemes that apply to the former Beaudesert Shire, Boonah Shire and Ipswich City local government areas within the Scenic Rim region.

Correspondence advising of the preparation of the new planning scheme was received by the City on 22 April 2013.

In 2014, SRRC produced a Directions Paper to articulate the key commitments and policy directions for the new planning scheme. It outlined the planning and development challenges faced by the Scenic Rim region, and how SRRC, through its planning scheme, intended to respond to these challenges.

Correspondence advising of the draft Directions Paper and seeking feedback was received by the City on 7 April 2014. The City did not make a submission at this time.

SCCR has now made available the draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme for public consultation. The draft Planning Scheme is open for public submissions until 14 December 2018.

5.2 Draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme submission points

City officers have reviewed the draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme to identify impacts and opportunities for the City. Recommended issues for inclusion in a submission are provided below.


614 ADOPTED REPORT

ITEM 8 (Continued) SUBMISSION ON THE DRAFT SCENIC RIM PLANNING SCHEME PD113/1275/10

5.2.1 Population growth The current Scenic Rim local government area (LGA) population is approximately 42,0001. The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme identifies that this population is expected to increase to 62,000 people by 2041. By comparison, the current Gold Coast LGA population is approximately 590,0002, and is expected to increase to 928,000 people by 20413. Most of the growth is expected to occur as a result of planned urban expansions of Beaudesert and to a lesser extent Boonah, Canungra, Kalbar and Kooralbyn. However, Peak Crossing, Harrisville, Aratula, Mount Alford and Rathdowney also anticipate growth within their existing township boundaries. Canungra is the closest area to the City’s border (approximately 15km from the boundary), while Beaudesert is approximately 50km from the boundary.

Figure 1: Scenic Rim growth areas The City has an interest in this planned population growth so as to ensure any regional planning matters and cross LGA border issues are appropriately considered by both LGAs. The regional planning matters and cross LGA border issues of relevance relate to:

road and transport network connections; access to health and education facilities including universities; access to sport and recreational facilities; catchment management; and environmental management.

Whilst many of these cross border matters relate to infrastructure controlled by the State Government, augmentation and sequencing of infrastructure networks that connect the two LGA’s can provide opportunities for enhanced social and economic benefits. As such it is requested that SRRC consider these regional and cross border planning matters and continue to liaise with the City when considering growth and development within the Scenic Rim LGA boundaries. 1 idcommunity, 2018, https://profile.id.com.au/scenic-rim 2 idcommunity, 2018, https://profile.id.com.au/gold-coast 3 Qld Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning, 2017, ShapingSEQ - South East Queensland Regional Plan

5.2.2 Sporting and recreational facilities The provision of trunk sporting and recreational facilities that supports the city’s population is set out in the recently adopted Local Government Infrastructure Plan (LGIP). However it is noted that the city’s LGIP does not take into consideration growth of adjoining Council LGA’s such as the Scenic Rim that may make use of the Gold Coast’s facilities. It is requested that SRRC continue to work together with the City on the provision of sporting and recreational facilities, with a focus on the localised impacts on either side of the boundary, to ensure that the anticipated population growth within the Scenic Rim and Gold Coast LGA boundaries is supported by adequate sporting and recreational infrastructure. 5.2.3 Transport According to 2016 Census data, approximately 6,735 (39.9%) workers in the Scenic Rim travel outside of the area to work, with 2,100 (12.4%) travelling to the City4. This increasing population in the Scenic Rim is likely to place additional demand upon our City’s infrastructure networks and services, although this is expected to be minimal. It is noted that most of the roads that cross into our city from Scenic Rim (Tamborine Oxenford Road, Guanaba Road/Henri Robert Drive and Beaudesert Nerang Road, Nerang Murwillumbah Road) are State controlled roads. However, it is requested that SRRC continue to work with the City to ensure any adverse impacts on cross border transport infrastructure are adequately managed. 5.2.4 Bromelton State Development Area The Bromelton industrial area is a regionally important industrial development area. It is located west of Beaudesert, approximately 46km from the city’s boundary. A key access from the Bromelton SDA to the Pacific Motorway is along Beaudesert Beenleigh Road, through Yatala. Increasing traffic from the new transport/freight hub at Bromelton may have implications for the City’s road system around Yatala. The availability of industrial land at Bromelton may also impact on demand for industry in and around Yatala; however, given Yatala’s established nature and proximity to the Pacific Motorway there are strong incentives for Yatala to continue to grow.

Figure 2: Travel route from Bromelton SDA to Yatala It is requested that SRRC liaise with the City to address modelling assumptions and potential/actual impacts of this development on our City.

616 ADOPTED REPORT


5.2.5 Investigation areas The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme identifies two ‘Investigation Areas’, being areas that may have the potential to accommodate future residential growth opportunities. The ‘Investigation Areas’ are identified at Beaudesert and Tamborine.

Figure 3: Identified Investigations areas - draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme Strategic Framework Map SFM-01 -Communities and Character The draft Strategic framework identifies that the development of land in these ‘Investigation Areas’ will not occur until such time that a planning study has been undertaken for the land's intended purpose and the outcomes of the study have been reflected in the Planning Scheme. These studies will consider:

development timing having regard to population growth and residential land availability in the region;

the ability to efficiently deliver any future communities with the necessary infrastructure and services so as not to financially burden both state and local government; and

and other planning matters relevant to the land including (but not limited to) Matters of State and Local Environmental Significance, separation to Key Resource Areas, proximity to existing intensive rural uses and Rural Areas and natural hazards.

The Beaudesert Investigation Area has been identified for potential future urban expansion areas. Development of this land for future urban purposes is not intended to occur during the life of the Planning Scheme as an adequate supply of urban zoned land to accommodate expected growth in Beaudesert in excess of fifteen years has been provided. This investigation area is not a concern for the City at this time. The Tamborine Investigation Area has been identified to determine whether any potential exists to achieve a more consolidated and efficient rural residential development pattern through the creation of additional lots. This development may occur within the life of the Planning Scheme. It is requested that during any further planning studies for these investigations areas, SRRC continue to work with the City to consider any impacts of the additional population growth on the City’s infrastructure networks and services. This is particularly relevant to the Tamborine Investigation Area, which is close to the Gold Coast LGA border.


617 ADOPTED REPORT


5.2.6 Employment The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme identifies agriculture as a significant employer for the region. The natural resources that agriculture depends on will be protected to ensure the long-term viability and growth of the agricultural sector. Development will be managed to maintain and enhance the existing and future use of the land for agricultural production. Diversification of the natural resource sector to include sustainable energy production such as Renewable energy facilities is also supported. The region has a range of industry and enterprise areas predominantly focused around rural service industries and manufacturing services. An adequate supply of industrial zoned land, which maintains an appropriate mix of lot sizes, is identified to meet a range of industrial operational needs and facilitate a diverse range of industrial activities. The tourism and recreation sector is also a significant employer in the region and its sustainable growth is supported. Tourism and recreation development protects and enhances the existing strengths of the Scenic Rim including its natural areas, rural landscapes and vibrant communities, and is promoted where it is consistent with community values and aspirations and contributes to community development and wellbeing. Approximately 960 (7.8%) local workers in the Scenic Rim travel from the Gold Coast as a place of residence5 . The diversified economy of the Scenic Rim provides employment opportunities that are either not available or are limited in the City. The protection and expansion of these employment options is important to the City and is supported. The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme identifies Beaudesert as the only major centre for the region. This confirms the current role and function that Beaudesert presently plays in providing major employment and administrative functions, and essential community services. Due to its location and planned scale, it is unlikely to have a direct impact on the role and function of our City’s centre hierarchy in City Plan. Centres close to the Gold Coast border, being North Tamborine (district centre), Canungra (local centre), Eagle Heights and Mount Tamborine (neighbourhood centre), and Beechmont (township), are all expected to maintain their current centre hierarchy, which is supported and is unlikely to have a direct impact on the role and function of our City’s centre hierarchy in City Plan. 5.2.7 Biodiversity As illustrated below, the Scenic Rim’s eastern biodiversity corridor directly connects with the City’s western Biodiversity corridor, which includes various Matters of State Environmental Significance, Matters of Local Environmental Significance and areas of regional biodiversity value.

618 ADOPTED REPORT


Figure 4: Regional biodiversity network - ShapingSEQ Given the importance of this regionally significant biodiversity corridor, there is a need to ensure that the environmental regulatory framework that applies in both LGAs is consistent and achieves similar levels of protection. The draft Environmental Significance Overlay Code contained in the draft Scenic Rim planning scheme generally aligns with the environmental outcomes being sought by the City, particularly in the areas adjoining our shared boundary. To further ensure the alignment of on-ground outcomes, there are some minor considerations that SRRC may wish to take on board to strengthen the planning scheme provisions. Specifically, consideration could be given to whether requirements to ‘avoid or mitigate’ should be specified in the performance outcome, rather than only in the acceptable outcome. For example, the current PO8/AO8 (addressing impacts on koala habitat) only includes requirements for ‘avoiding/mitigating’ impacts on koala habitat as an AO, whereas PO10 (addressing impacts on local vegetation) includes requirements for ‘avoiding/mitigating’ impacts on local vegetation as part of the PO. The City would be keen to see the successful implementation of conservation outcomes across our shared border by the inclusion and alignment of provisions in the performance outcomes and overall outcomes, rather than only the acceptable outcomes, as these are only one way of meeting a performance outcome. The draft Environmental Significance Overlay Maps show a consistency of environmental outcomes between the Draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme and the City of Gold Coast City Plan, and City officers are generally supportive of the outcomes sought. 5.2.8 Catchment management City officers are generally supportive of the outcomes sought regarding catchment management; however the following amendments to the draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme have been identified:

Environmental Significance Overlay Code - Table 8.2.4.1 Mapping Summary - 5. Environmental Significance Overlay Map – Local Watercourses OM-04-E does not include Stream Order 1 as a Matter of Local Environmental Significance. Increased nutrient and sediment discharges generated through degradation of Stream Order 1 waterways can impact


619 ADOPTED REPORT


on Gold Coast estuaries if not managed appropriately6. It is suggested that Stream Order 1 be included in the list of Matters of Local Environmental Significance Local Watercourses.

Increased nutrient and sediment discharges generated through degradation of waterways located within Watercourse Buffer Areas A & B can also impact on the City’s waterways7. It is suggested that buffer area distances in the draft Environmental Significance Overlay Code (AO12) be increased to reflect current research and other Local and State government approaches8 .

The extraction of groundwater for commercial purposes within the Scenic Rim can impact on the City’s water resource catchments. While not supported on Tamborine Mountain, the draft Planning Scheme indicates this may occur in other Rural zoned areas. These impacts should be considered to ensure protection of the quantity of groundwater, surface water, wetlands, springs, and aquafers, and highlights the need for monitoring ground water levels. It is suggested that the Water Resource Catchments Overlay Code – s.8.2.10.2 be revised to ensure development of groundwater extraction for commercial purpose is appropriately sited, designed and managed to maintain and protect water quantity in groundwater, aquafer and natural springs with levels to be monitored regularly.

The City welcomes ongoing discussion around these matters. 5.2.9 Natural hazards SRRC is upstream of the City, with both the Albert and Coomera Rivers originating in the Scenic Rim and flowing through the City. The Flood Overlay maps for Albert and Coomera River catchments for both local government areas need a coordinated approach for consistency. The City is generally supportive of the Planning Scheme outcomes from a natural hazards perspective. It is requested that ongoing collaboration is maintained on this matter. 5.2.10 Stormwater A review of the relevant sections in relation to stormwater in the Draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme has been undertaken. The City is generally supportive of the Planning Scheme outcomes from a stormwater perspective, as relevant to the City. The City welcomes ongoing discussion around these matters. 6 ALIGNMENT TO THE CORPORATE PLAN, CORPORATE STRATEGIES AND

OPERATIONAL PLAN The draft Scenic Rim Planning Scheme plans for population and employment growth for the Scenic Rim region, immediately west of the City’s border. If not managed appropriately, this growth can place increased pressure on City infrastructure, impacting on delivery of outcomes envisaged in Gold Coast 2020 including:

1.4 We can get around the city easily 1.8 Our city is resilient to natural hazards 2.3 We have infrastructure that supports productivity and growth 3.6 We are an active and healthy community

5 DISCUSSION

5.1 Background

The 2018-19 ITIP (Attachment 2) includes a mix of offshore trade, investment and civic opportunities, coupled with targeted inbound visit programs and domestic opportunities. The 2018-19 ITIP will:

match the city’s trade and investment capabilities and opportunities with international marketdemands

leverage the elevated international profile from hosting the Gold Coast 2018 CommonwealthGames

develop new Commonwealth market opportunities established as a result of Trade 2018 support export ready businesses to access international markets attract new film investment from priority markets including the US and China continue to expand on our high performance sport initiatives in PNG and the South Pacific explore emerging opportunities and establish critical relationships, in preparation for major

events such as World Expo Dubai 2020 and the next Commonwealth Games in 2022 utilise established and emerging City relationships and partnerships such as Sister City

Agreements as a catalyst to develop trade and investment ties, particularly in new marketssuch as Thailand, Vietnam and possibly Indonesia.

5.2 2018-19 ITIP Amendments

Since the 2018-19 ITIP was endorsed, key opportunities such as the Taiwan Smart Cities Summit, Sport Accord and a Mayoral Mission to the UAE and China have emerged; with the cancellation of


624 ADOPTED REPORT

ITEM 9 (Continued) 2018-19 INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INVESTMENT PROGRAM UPDATE PD330/275/03/01/24(P1) Surf Expo providing the budget for these to be considered. These new opportunities are important to drive trade and investment opportunities for the city and meet the objectives of ITIP. Whilst the CEO has the delegated authority to amend the International Trade and Investment Program, including deletion of activities and approving Officer travel; one of the key inclusions (Mayoral UAE and China Mission) requires Council endorsement to enter into a Sister City Agreement. As such all proposed changes to the 2018-19 ITIP have been bought back for Council’s consideration. The following provides details on these proposed changes including justifications. An updated program, subject to Council approval, can be found in Attachment 3. 5.2.1 Surf Expo In the past two months, the Innovation & Economy Branch has consulted with over thirty suitable companies to promote Surf Expo 2019. Whilst there has been good interest from industry in this mission to date, the capability and capacity of those interested companies to implement opportunities from the US market has been assessed as limited. The Innovation & Economy Branch therefore does not believe it is viable for this mission to go ahead and will work closely with interested companies through programs such as Emerging Exporters Program, Export Assistance Scheme, Growth Accelerator and Tradestart Advisory Services to build their capability and capacity for international success. This mission will therefore be cancelled for 2019 and will be reviewed closely for participation in future years. The $40,000 of unspent funds will be moved into 2018-19 ITIP Program Additions as highlighted in 5.3 below. 5.2.2 Arab Health (UAE) and Mayoral Mission Arab Health will still proceed as planned; however due to a change in circumstances a Mayoral Mission will no longer take place as scheduled. The UAE Mayoral Mission is proposed for May 2019 as noted in 5.3.2. The international relations budget of $15,000 allocated for this mission will be transferred to support both the UAE visit and Gold Coast Showcase in Chengdu. 5.3 2018-19 ITIP Program Additions 5.3.1 Taiwan Smart Cities Summit – March 2019 Following the Mayoral Mission to Taiwan in September 2018, an opportunity has emerged for the City to become a member of the GoSMART Alliance (Global Organisation of Smart Cities). The GoSMART Alliance is founded by Taipei City Government comprising forward-thinking governments, corporations and research institutions. The Alliance provides a platform for cities to exchange ideas, develop innovations and share inter-city POC (Proof of Concept) collaborations. Its three key missions are to:

1. Connect global cities and set up a network of resources and information. 2. Encourage collaboration between international cities and initiate Inter-city PoC projects. 3. Promote innovative solutions to solve urban problems and improve the quality of living for

citizens. Membership benefits to the City include the commitment to making cities a better place to live. In addition to this, it provides information and expertise exchange through the development of inter-city Proof of Concepts, collaborating with other member cities around the world with which the City doesn’t have an existing civic relationship. Involvement in this Alliance will provide an opportunity for the City in relation to smart city initiatives the City might not normally have access to.


625 ADOPTED REPORT

ITEM 9 (Continued) 2018-19 INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INVESTMENT PROGRAM UPDATE PD330/275/03/01/24(P1) There will be opportunity for a City officer to present at the Smart City Summit and additionally, Trade and Investment Queensland have agreed to support a broader mission program with Gold Coast technology companies interested in attending the Summit, to look at digital city opportunities. In addition, the City will have the opportunity to meet technology companies that have a direct link to the Digital City Program functions (e.g. City LoRaWAN network equipment has come from Taiwan – Foxcom – via our Network Operator NNNCo; LoRaWAN chips are manufactured by Semtech). Two Officers from Innovation & Economy will be in attendance, whilst an expression of interest campaign will be sent to local businesses in the IoT sector to participate. The proposed budget for this mission is $17,000 to be funded from PE5370, Cost Centre 1006417. Funds will be available from reallocation of Surf Expo. 5.3.2 Mayoral Mission to UAE and China – May 2019 The mission to the UAE will comprise meetings in Dubai and Abu Dhabi with a focus on reinvigorating the sister city relationship, potential meeting with the Crown Prince, discussions regarding Expo 2020 and investigating opportunities in education, smart cities and health and medical. Funding for the Mayoral and International Relations components of this mission will be transferred from the Arab Health Mayoral Mission as noted in 5.2.3. Given the economic importance of this relationship, particularly in the lead up to Expo 2020, funding for an Officer from Innovation & Economy to accompany this mission is available from existing budget to deliver business, trade and investment opportunities in addition to civic meetings. Following the trip to the UAE, the Mayoral Mission to China will encompass Gold Coast Showcase in Chengdu and a possible visit to our Sister City Zhuhai as outlined below. The city of Chengdu, located in south-western China, has a population of 15 million and considered a prosperous Chinese city. It is one of the most important economic centres in the region and has the largest concentration of universities, research institutes and financial institutions in south-west China. The Mayor first led a mission to Chengdu in 2014 and Gold Coast and Chengdu have since facilitated a productive relationship in the areas of education, investment, culture, health and medical. Strong support in-market by Study Gold Coast, Destination Gold Coast and Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct has contributed to the success of this relationship. Projects of collaboration include:

Gold Coast and Chengdu Public Art Design Competition Chengdu Civil Servant Exchange Scholarship Australia-Southwest China Sister City Photo Competition Study Gold Coast’s Education Campaign Participation by a Gold Coast school in the Chengdu International Sister Cities Youth Music

Festival Pending MOU between GCHKP and Chengdu Hi-Tech Development Zone MOU between Study Gold Coast and Chengdu Education Bureau Sister school relationship between Gold Coast and Chengdu schools The Institute for Glycomics, Griffith University has well-developed research and

commercialisation links with the Chengdu community In September 2016, Mayor Tate signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Chengdu and following its achievements, both Gold Coast and Chengdu are ready to progress to a Sister City relationship. A draft Sister City Agreement can be found in Attachment 4. It is anticipated that the Sister City Agreement will be signed as part of the 2019 Chengdu Global Innovation & Entrepreneurship Fair (GIEF) to be held in May.


626 ADOPTED REPORT

ITEM 9 (Continued) 2018-19 INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INVESTMENT PROGRAM UPDATE PD330/275/03/01/24(P1) In celebration of the Sister City signing, it is proposed to host a Gold Coast Showcase in Chengdu to be held the week immediately following the GIEF. The purpose of this showcase is to highlight Gold Coast’s relationship with Chengdu, maximise potential business opportunities and utilise the Mayor’s presence in market. There is strong interest from Destination Gold Coast, Study Gold Coast and Gold Coast Health and Knowledge Precinct to join the mission and proposed sectors include education, business events, tourism, health & medical, film, food and e-commerce. A public expression of interest campaign for local companies in targeted sectors to join the mission will be run by the Innovation & Economy Branch in consultation with the Office of the Mayor. The Mayoral Mission to the UAE and China will be delivered by Innovation & Economy in collaboration with the Office of the Mayor. The total proposed budget is $60,000 of which $30,000 will be provided by the Office of the Mayor and $30,000 from ITIP. $20,000 of funds will be available from reallocation of Surf Expo, which will be topped up by unspent funds to date in ITIP. 5.3.3 SportAccord Convention – May 2019 SportAccord (SA2019) is the world sport and business summit. SportAccord is focused on driving positive change internationally and dedicated to engaging and connecting international federations, rights holders, organising committees, cities, press and media, businesses and other organisations involved in the development of sport. A SA2019 Cross-Government Working Group chaired by Department of Innovation, Tourism Industry Development and the Commonwealth Games (DITID) has been established to coordinate government’s involvement in SA2019 and oversee the implementation of engagement and leveraging activities. DITID aims to maximise the Queensland Government’s investment in SA2019 by utilising the event to deliver targeted economic, social and cultural outcomes in collaboration with relevant local, state and federal government agencies and industry partners. The City is a key partner in this working group which aims to deliver on three strategic objectives:

1. Showcase the Gold Coast, Queensland and Australia as a premier trade, investment, innovation, sporting and major event destination.

2. Enhance Queensland’s reputation as a global sporting hub and promote our leadership in the

‘Business of Sport’. This may include major event delivery and leveraging, sports infrastructure, technology, research, high performance and management industries.

3. Celebrate the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games (GC2018) and share key lessons,

learnings and legacy outcomes with the world’s leading sporting bodies. $57,500 worth of funding has been earmarked from the City legacy funding to deliver initiatives such as venue tours, VIP hosting, business matching and functions in relation to the objectives listed above. This may be matched by the Queensland Government who have received a submission from the CEO outlining a range of legacy funded projects including joint funding of Sport Accord. At this point in time the Queensland Government have not finalised their review of this submission and we are unaware if they will co-fund this particular project. 5.4 Trade 2018 Legacy – Major Event Capability In April 2018, the City in partnership with the Queensland Government successfully delivered one of the largest business, trade and investment programs coordinated to date at a Commonwealth Games (Trade 2018). As part of post-event legacy, the City in partnership with the Queensland Government (via Trade and Investment Queensland) are scoping a program of activities and events aimed at growing our major event capability and creating legacy outcomes through export and investment.


627 ADOPTED REPORT

ITEM 9 (Continued) 2018-19 INTERNATIONAL TRADE AND INVESTMENT PROGRAM UPDATE PD330/275/03/01/24(P1) As a result of events and engagements held during Trade 2018 and post event engagement with major event leads, opportunities may exist for local companies to access procurement opportunities for the supply of goods, services and capabilities of internationally hosted major events such as:

Sport Accord 2019 (Gold Coast) World Expo 2020 (Dubai) 2020 Summer Olympics (Tokyo) 2022 Winter Olympics (Beijing) 2022 Asian Games (Hangzhou) 2022 Commonwealth Games (Birmingham)

A program of activities and events which will be leveraged through the existing activities of the 2018-19 ITIP program and beyond will seek to solidify opportunities for supply-chain development into these future major events and further leverage relationships formed through the Trade 2018 activations internationally and at the Games Time Trade and Investment Program. Utilising existing budget and resources available under the 2018-19 ITIP, work has already commenced to link leading Gold Coast businesses that hold major event capability with leads of events such as Sport Accord, World Expo 2020 and 2022 Commonwealth Games. With the hosts of future major events from all around the world converging on the Gold Coast in May next year, Sport Accord is an excellent opportunity for linking major event suppliers that have general export capability and market readiness with hosts of future major events. In order to further leverage these opportunities, it is proposed to allocate $10,000 of the $25,000 budget for ad hoc inbound programs into initiatives around Sport Accord that will assist to meet the objectives of the Trade 2018 Legacy program and provide a platform for business to access future major event opportunities. This may include strategic attraction of procurement managers from targeted events listed above to visit the Gold Coast, increased booth space at Sport Accord to enable export ready companies from the major events sector to participate, facilitated roundtables with hosts of future major events and business matching activities. 6 ALIGNMENT TO THE CORPORATE PLAN, CORPORATE STRATEGIES AND

OPERATIONAL PLAN ITIP seeks to achieve the following strategic outcomes: Gold Coast 2020

1.8 - Our city benefits from a great Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Economic Development Strategy 2013-2023

Outcome 6.6 - A city known as an emerging world class business destination Economic Development International Plan

Objective 5 - Maximise legacy opportunities for business, sport and events from hosting the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games™ 7 FUNDING AND RESOURCING REQUIREMENTS Budget/Funding Considerations ITIP is predominately funded from the 2018-19 Innovation & Economy recurrent operating budget, responsibility centre PE5370, Cost Centre 1006417 ($445,919) and is complemented by Tradestart responsibility centre PE5370, Cost Centre 1006407 which requires at least 5% (approximately $9,000) of the fully funded Austrade position’s contract value to be spent on international travel.

Since the 2018-19 ITIP was endorsed, key opportunities such as the Taiwan Smart Cities Summit, Sport Accord and a Mayoral Mission to the UAE and China have emerged.

OUTBOUND MISSION TAIWAN SMART CITIES SUMMIT

Event Date

26-29 March, 2019

Location

Taipei, Taiwan

Mission Information

There will be opportunity for a City officer to present at the Smart City Summit and additionally, Trade and Investment Queensland have agreed to support a broader mission program with Gold Coast technology companies interested in attending the Summit, to look at digital city opportunities.

Target Market

Taiwan

No of companies attending

Expected outcomes/value add

Expected outcomes for the Taiwan Smart Cities Summit include: Raise the city’s global profile as an emerging world class business

destination Commit to the GoSmart Alliance, a world-wide partnership between

cities to identify and explore smart city solution opportunities Meet technology companies that have a direct link to the Digital

ITEM 10 CITY DEVELOPMENT ACTIVE INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES LG113/190/01/01/2018(P1)


1.1 I recommend that this report be considered in Closed Session pursuant to section 275 (1) of the Local Government Regulation 2012 for the reason that the matter involves (a) the local government’s budget;

1.2 I recommend that the report/attachment be deemed non-confidential except for those parts deemed by the Chief Executive Officer to remain confidential in accordance with sections 171 (3) and 200 (5) of the Local Government Act 2009.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Not Applicable.

3 PURPOSE OF REPORT

The purpose of this report is to update Council on the status of the City’s active infrastructure charges following a review by Audit Committee and the Queensland Audit Office (QAO).


Not Applicable.

5 DISCUSSION

5.1 Background Infrastructure charges are levied by the City to fund planned trunk infrastructure in a timely and efficient manner. Over a number of years, infrastructure charges have been calculated by reference to the City’s Planning Scheme Policies, the Priority Infrastructure Plan (PIP), the Adopted Infrastructure Charges Resolutions (AICR) and more recently the Charges Resolutions (CR).

For infrastructure charges calculated in accordance with the PIP, AICR or CR, they are notified to an applicant via an Infrastructure Charges Notice. These notices are issued concurrently with the decision notice for a Material Change of Use and/or Reconfiguring a Lot application, or if the City is not the assessment manager (i.e. approval by a Building Certifier), within 20 business days of notification by the Building Certifier.

The City has processes in place which capture the majority of payments. For example, pay points include:

prior to the approval of survey plans (standard format plans, building format plans, volumetricformat plans); or

when a use commences; or prior to final plumbing inspection taking place.

Despite these checking points, some infrastructure charges are not paid. This is usually due to the use commencing unlawfully and without being subject to the usual pay points. In response to this, the City has been undertaking a review of active infrastructure charges for the past five years.

ITEM 10 (Continued) ACTIVE INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES LG113/190/01/01/2018(P1)

5.3 Analysis Officers

undertook a desktop review of the active infrastructure charges to determine if the list was accurate and if there were any criteria which could significantly reduce the value of the active infrastructure charges. The results from this review formed the basis for the assumptions listed below.

5.3.1 Methodology The methodology used to undertake the review was based on knowledge of infrastructure charging and development progress. The review was undertaken based on the following four scenarios

5.3.1.1 Scenario 1 This scenario included development approvals with infrastructure charges levied in excess of $1 million and included multiple dwellings, apartments, attached dwellings and the like.

The rationale behind this scenario was that developments which included multiple dwellings could not proceed to be sold as individual units until such time as they were subdivided. In order for the buildings to be subdivided, it is a requirement to ensure all infrastructure charges are paid.

5.3.1.2 Scenario 2 This scenario included development approvals which had infrastructure charges levied (in any value) prior to 2008, but excluding those identified in Scenario 1 (where applicable).

Due to the development approvals being 10 years or older, it was assumed that most of these developments may have been superseded by more recent development approvals or may have lapsed.

5.3.1.3 Scenario 3 This scenario included development approvals which had infrastructure charges levied in excess of $100,000 after 2008, but excluding those identified in scenario 1 (where applicable). This scenario was further divided into two parts. They are:

Developments containing multiple dwellings/ apartments/ attached dwellings and the like. The developments including multiple dwellings cannot proceed to be sold as individual units until such time as they are subdivided. In order for the buildings to be subdivided, it is a requirement to ensure all infrastructure charges are paid.

Other developments. These developments were identified as a key focus area for testing


645 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


5.1.3.4 Scenario 4 This scenario included development approvals which have infrastructure charges levied under $100,000 after 2008. Development approvals in this scenario are small in nature and include such things as second detached dwellings, duplexes, granny flats/family accommodation, small cafes, smaller industry buildings and the like.

5.3.2 Further review As a result of testing the methodologies, the Infrastructure Charge Review team are now undertaking further review on each application from the review to either start or continue to recover infrastructure charges or complete the process to lapse or cancel charges.

As the issue of active infrastructure charges will be ongoing, various reporting will be conducted in the future to capture any new applications which may require recovery action. For these applications, and all other applications to come, the Infrastructure Charge Review team will continue with business as usual to ensure infrastructure charges are collected in a timely manner.

5.5 Mitigation

the mitigations currently in place to ensure the timely collection of infrastructure charges include:

Undertake further analysis of the active infrastructure charges register to determine theapplicability and likelihood of the collectability of the active infrastructure charges. To assistthis, the City is engaging additional resources specifically for the monitoring and review of theactive infrastructure charges register.

Additional monitoring and reporting requirements are being established to monitor the reviewof the active infrastructure charges register.

Continue to implement a process for the early identification and collection of relevant activeinfrastructure charges.

The implementation of a new system solution in LGP (Pathway) to flag when the use hascommenced on a property for an application to assist with the manual outstandinginfrastructure charges collection process.

7 FUNDING AND RESOURCING REQUIREMENTS

Infrastructure charges are a source of funds for the City’s water supply, sewerage, recreation facilities and transport infrastructure networks. A failure to collect these charges results in increased pressures on other funding sources to deliver infrastructure throughout the city.

Staffing levels are continually being monitored to ensure that appropriate resources are dedicated to the review of active infrastructure charges.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This report provides an update on the City Plan work program, which is presented in three (3) parts:

Part A: Improve our City Plan (IOCP) register and City Plan updates register (CPUR) matters;

Part B: update on the progress of the current City Plan update packages; and Part C: key issues affecting the delivery of the current City Plan work program.

Part A identifies that City Planning have undertaken a significant review of the existing IOCP register and CPUR to determine whether the submitted items have been either appropriately addressed or allocated to an appropriate City Plan update package for action. Through is review, it has been identified that since 30 July 2015 CPUR contained 1,158 improvement suggestions and 94 projects. As at 1 December 2017, 65% of improvement suggestions and 16% of projects have been addressed and completed through City Plan updates. The remaining 35% of improvement suggestions and 84% of projects have been allocated to a future update package for action.

Upon review of the 44 internal and external stakeholder improvement suggestions received between 1 December 2017 and 30 September 2018, City officers are recommending that 42 out of the 44 improvement suggestions are allocated to CPUR as detailed in

To ensure visibility over the evolving work program of updates to City Plan, a report outlining the items received through the IOCP register is proposed to be presented to EPEC quarterly. This report will also include a status updates on all update packages.

In relation to Part B, there are currently seven (7) City Plan major update packages that are either being prepared or are progressing through the statutory plan making process. This report provides a detailed update on the status of each of the seven (7) update packages, which have each been progressed as per previous reports to Council. In relation to Part C, this report provides discussion on key issues affecting the delivery of the current City Plan work program. Key issues have been highlighted regarding the preparation of six (6) monthly major amendments, such as:

packages need to be standalone and not relying on another incomplete amendment package;

REDACTED

ITEM 11 (Continued) UPDATE ON CITY PLAN WORK PROGRAM PD98/1132/05/03(P1)

time taken for update packages to progress from State interest review to commencement; timing of State interest review and public consultation and implications on staff resourcing; and implications of contentious items delaying the progress of an update package.

Issues associated the timing of Major update 4 amendment package and Major update 5 amendment package have also been highlighted.

It is recommended that a different approach be taken to the six (6) monthly major update program, which involves:

reporting on the submissions received through the IOCP register and CPUR on a quarterlybasis;

progressing Major update 2 & 3 as currently planned as a priority; Major update 4 being progressed following Major update 2 & 3, commencing the statutory

process in 2020/2021; Major update 5 being progressed concurrently with Major update 4, commencing the statutory

process in 2020/2021; Future major updates being submitted for State interest review after previous major updates

have commenced as new versions of City Plan; Tailored or qualified State interest amendments being undertaken as needed for specific

matters; and Minor, administrative and City Plan Policy updates being undertaken on an as needs basis

and presented to Council for endorsement.

5 DISCUSSION

The following section provides a discussion on the following three (3) matters:

Part A: IOCP and CPUR matters; Part B: update on the progress of the current City Plan update packages; and Part C: key issues affecting the delivery of the current City Plan work program.

PART A: IOCP and CPUR MATTERS

To ensure that all statistics stemming from these registers are recorded and reported correctly, in late 2017, City officers undertook a review and audit of IOCP and CPUR to determine whether the submitted items have been either appropriately addressed or allocated to an appropriate City Plan update package for action.

As part of this review, City officers also re-evaluated the current process that was documented in the Councillor Memo, dated 5 December 2016, which outlined how internal and external stakeholder


651 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


submissions were captured via the IOCP register and then converted into CPUR items

5.1 Role and function of the IOCP Register

The IOCP register was established at the commencement of City Plan in 2016 and has been used by City Planning as the primary means to capture all improvement suggestions relating to City Plan from both internal and external stakeholders. The revised function of the IOCP register is to:

address questions/enquiries that are not suitable for an update package; forward any questions/enquiries not relevant to City Plan to the appropriate area of Council; allocate improvement suggestions to a City Plan update package; and allocate projects to a City Plan update package.

The revised process relating to the receipt and actioning of all submissions received through the IOCP register and how they are progressed to the CPUR is illustrated in Figure 1. A more detailed process diagram is contained within Attachment E.

Figure 1: Revised process for actioning submissions received through the IOCP and its progression to the CPUR

As identified in Figure 1, City officers assess each submission received from internal and external stakeholders and determine whether it is considered to be an enquiry or an improvement suggestion.

An enquiry is considered to be a question, statement or recommendation that is not directly related to improving City Plan, for example, a question about a development application or a suggestion regarding vehicle speed limit signage. Where an enquiry is received, the City Plan team passes on the information to the relevant Council department to appropriately address. Enquiries relating to City Plan, for example interpretation of a code provision, that can be addressed immediately are specifically actioned by the City Plan team.

Whereas an improvement suggestion is a proposal to amend City Plan to address an error, omission or to make an improvement, for example, incorrect numbering, adding a definition or changing the level of assessment. Where an improvement suggestion is received, the City officers conduct a


652 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


preliminary investigation to determine whether no further action is required or whether it needs to be included into the CPUR. This internal process results in the creation of the quarterly work program, which is proposed to be reported to Economy, Planning and Environment Committee in accordance with the following schedule:

Q1: 1 January – 31 March; Q2: 1 April – 30 June; Q3: 1 July – 30 September; and Q4: 1 October – 31 December.

Once the quarterly work program is endorsed by Council, the items are then allocated to a City Plan update package via CPUR

A recent audit and review of the IOCP register and CPUR, has been completed over the past year. Consequently, Section 5.3 of this report presents reporting from 1 December 2017 to 30 September 2018.

5.2 Progress update on IOCP submissions received between September 2015 to September 2018

As illustrated in Figure 2, between 7 September 2015 and 30 September 2018, a total of 369 submissions were received from internal and external stakeholders via IOCP register.

Figure 2: Total number of internal and external Improvement Suggestions and Enquiries received between 7 September 2015 and 30 September 2018

5.3 1 December 2017 – 30 September 2018 IOCP statistics

Between 1 December 2017 and 30 September 2018, a total of 74 submissions from internal and external stakeholders have been received through the IOCP register In accordance with the revised process outlined in Figure 1, these submissions have been reviewed to determine whether they are improvement suggestions or enquiries.

Of the 74 received submissions, one (1) submission contains two separate improvement suggestions; therefore it is suggested that it is considered as one (1) submission but two (2) improvement suggestions. Figure 3 details that:

44 were improvement suggestions and 31 were enquiries; 66% of the improvement suggestions were received from internal stakeholders; and 100% of the enquiries were received from external stakeholders.

5.5.2 Major update to City Plan Policies (Schedule 6) to support Major update 2 & 3

A Major update to City Plan Policies (Schedule 6) package will be prepared and tabled for Council’s consideration in early 2019 to implement a number of City Plan policy changes required to support draft changes introduced by Major update 2 & 3. The proposed amendment will involve:

the introduction of a new Design and context policy; and changes to SC6.7 City Plan Policy – Ecological site assessments.

In addition, a minor and administrative amendment to City Plan will be required to facilitate the introduction, amendment and renumbering of the City Plan policies. The minor and administration amendment will also recommend minor editorial changes to assist with the integration of Major update 2 & 3 changes into the latest version of City Plan.

Figure 9: Major update to City Plan Policies (Schedule 6) to support Major update 2 & 3 indicative timing

To ensure that City resources are being utilised in an efficient and effective manner, it is proposed that Major update City Plan Policies (Schedule 6) will be consulted on together with the Major update 2 & 3 amendment package. This timing is based on discussions with State officers on Major update 2 & 3, to ensure there is transparency during the public consultation phase.

5.5.3 Major update Designing for Flood

On 30 April 2018, Council endorsed to remove the flood component from the Major update 2 & 3 amendment package. Major update Designing for Flood is in the early planning and preparation stage. A report detailing the scope of this update package is currently being prepared, and it is anticipated to be presented to Economy Planning and Environment Committee in early 2019.

As identified in the indicative timeframe provided overleaf, it is anticipated that the Major update Designing for Flood will be progressed to first State interest review in July / August 2019.


661 ADOPTED REPORT

5.5.4 Major Coastal Hazard update

The Major Coastal Hazard update was adopted by Council in November 2017 and submitted to DSDMIP for the first State interest review on 11 December 2017. As identified in Table 1, The Major Coastal Hazard update amendment package addresses 12 CPUR items and 1 Project.

The DSDMIP issued a Pause Notice on 24 January 2018 to address complex technical matters regarding 12 items within this package. City officers have responded to the Pause Notice and the response was submitted to DSDMIP on 30 October 2018. In responding to DSDMIP, City officers requested the Major Coastal Hazard update amendment package to be held in abeyance due to being successful with funding for the preparation of a Coastal Hazard Adaptation Strategy (CHAS) and potential impacts this future strategy will have on the Major Coastal Hazard update.

As identified in the indicative timeframe below, it is anticipated that DSDMIP conclude their State interest review in early 2019. Consequently, DSDMIP’s response will be brought to Council for its consideration and endorsement prior to it progressing to public consultation, which is to commence in mid-2019.

Figure 11: Major Coastal Hazard update indicative timing

5.5.5 Major update New Communities (Eggersdorf Road, Ormeau)

This Major update amendment package is a result of an identified City Plan project for the Norwell Investigation Area (248 Eggersdorf Road, Ormeau).

The following provides a summary of the progress for this Major update:

Discussions were held with State officers from June 2018 to understand the opportunity toundertake a tailored process for this item and the preferred process for advancing thisrequest.

Following Council endorsement, on 11 September 2018, a request was made to the State forapproval of a proposed tailored process in accordance with section 18 of the Planning Act2016 to deliver a major amendment at Eggersdorf Road, Ormeau.


662 ADOPTED REPORT


State officers have advised they are still considering this request. It is noted that the statutoryamendment process cannot commence until confirmation of the process is received from theState.

This is the first time a tailored process has been proposed to update City Plan. A copy of the Council endorsed proposed amendment was also provided for the State interest review, pending approval of a tailored process.

The proposed City Plan Major update - New Communities (Eggersdorf Rd, Ormeau) is a detailed review of the critical corridor along Pimpama River, along the rear boundary of the investigation area, to determine land available for urban development and to ensure adequate evidence to support Council policy and State interests. The review resulted in a refinement of the area of land on 248 Eggersdorf Road identified as having high strategic value for the critical corridor. This includes an area of land along Pimpama River to provide a flood free landfall habitat, at a critical junction with the proposed Coomera Connector (previously referred to as the Intra-Regional Transport Corridor).

5.5.6 Major update 4

Major update 4 is in the planning and preparation stage.

It is important to note that an interim LGIP amendment will be required to support this amendment.

Table 2 highlights the various items contained in Major update 2 & 3 that form the policy foundation of the content of Major update 4. Given that major amendment packages must stand alone and cannot rely on preceding amendments, as identified in the indicative timeframe below, it is anticipated that this amendment package will be sent to DSDMIP for State interest review in September / October 2020.

Figure 12: Major update 4 indicative timing

However, the timing of the Major update 4 amendment package is dependent upon Major update 2 & 3 being endorsed by DSDMIP. Should Major update 4 commence the statutory process in early 2020, it is likely that the new version of City Plan will not commence until early to mid-2023. Concerns associated with the timing of the Major update 4 amendment package are further discussed in Section 5.7 of this report.


663 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


5.5.7 Major update 5

An introductory paper for Major update 5 was presented to Council on 22 August 2018 (G18.0828.020), which outlined the intended scope and timing of this City Plan update.

The intended scope was indicated to be:

1 Building height – Phase 4 (final phase);

2 Residential design codes review;

3 Urban elements investigation;

4 Environmental codes and mapping updates;

5 Reconfiguring a lot code review; and

6 High impact industry zone investigation.

Whilst it is noted that this is the current scope for Major update 5, this may change due to matters that arise prior to the commencement of the statutory process.

The introductory paper also indicated that this amendment package would progress to State interest review in early - mid 2019. However, similar to Major update 4, the ability to progress this amendment package is directly dependent on when Major update 2 & 3 and Major update 4 amendment packages are adopted.

Therefore, it is recommended that Major update 5 is progressed concurrently with Major update 4. As identified in the indicative timeframe, it is anticipated that this amendment package will be sent to DSDMIP for State interest review in October /November 2020.

666 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


Our city provides a choice of liveable places; Our city is safe; We are proud of our city; Our community is inclusive and supportive; We plan for the future of the city; and We manage the city responsibly.


The resourcing requirements will depend on the scope of each update package. The development of work programs and scope for each update package will consider the capacity of the City Plan team and other internal stakeholders. 8 RISK MANAGEMENT

This activity supports the mitigation of Planning and Environment Directorate Risk number CO000510:

‘City Plan delivers inadequate and/or ineffective strategic/development policy (e.g. poor planning, built form, growth, social and environmental outcomes - including flood impacts).’

9 STATUTORY MATTERS

City Plan update packages will be undertaken in accordance with the relevant statutory process.

Under the Planning Act 2016, the process is contained in the Minister’s Guidelines and Rules July 2017.

Endorsement to progress packages through the relevant statutory process will be the subject of separate reports to Economy, Planning & Environment Committee.

14 TIMING

The items included in Attachment J have variable timeframes depending upon the type of update package being targeted. The specific details regarding the timing of each update package will be discussed as they are brought to Economy, Planning & Environment Committee.

15 CONCLUSION

To ensure visibility over the evolving work program of updates to City Plan, a report outlining the items received through the IOCP register and CPUR is proposed to be presented to the Economy, Planning and Environment Committee on a quarterly basis. This report will also include status updates on all update packages.

Based on the issues faced by progressing amendments that rely on previous amendments, it is recommended that major updates be submitted for State interest review upon commencement of the previous major update as a new version of City Plan. This will ensure each update package stands alone and does not impact the progression of future update packages.

The MGR’s provides the opportunity to submit updates that do not fit under the definition of minor or administrative amendment via a tailored or qualified State interest amendment process.

By removing the requirement to lodge major updates for State interest review every six (6) months, future updates that are discrete in their changes to the City Plan could be progressed as needed under either a tailored or qualified State interest amendment process.

Therefore it is recommended that:

Items received through the IOCP register and CPUR is presented to the Economy, Planningand Environment Committee on a quarterly basis;

Major update 2 & 3 progress as currently planned as a priority; Major update 4 is progressed following Major update 2 & 3, commencing the statutory process

in 2020/2021; Major update 5 is progressed concurrently with Major update 4, commencing the statutory

process in 2020/2021; Future major updates are submitted for State interest review after previous major updates

have commenced as new versions of City Plan; Tailored or qualified State interest amendments are undertaken as needed for specific

matters; and Minor, administrative and City Plan Policy updates are undertaken on an as needs basis and

presented to Council for endorsement.

Principles


777 ADOPTED REPORT

a) Light Rail 3A Vision b) Light Rail 3A Principlesc) Light Rail 3A Potential Corridor Shape

a) Light Rail 3A Vision:

The Stage 3A extension of the Light Rail Corridor delivers new city building and region-shaping public transport to the Gold Coast. It will be a distinct shift from the iconic skyline of Southport, Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach and will deliver a future growth response that is reflective of the character of the southern corridor.

Future growth in this corridor offers a multi-modal public transport network that connects people with new jobs and businesses - driving economic growth and opportunity. Intensified development outcomes on and around light rail stations and activity centres will occur, whilst respecting the prominent natural features within the corridor. A diverse mix of housing typologies will drive improved housing choice and diversity for the community. A network of greenspaces that is connected to the beach and prioritises cycling and pedestrian movement will enhance the community’s well-being. The community will benefit from improved access to essential community services and facilities.

This sustainable growth response will respect historic patterns of development and deliver high quality urban design outcomes to support and enhance the relaxed lifestyle that is highly valued and enjoyed by the coastal communities of Mermaid, Nobby, Miami and Burleigh Heads.

The Gold Coast Light Rail Stage 3A provides the city with a significant opportunity to accommodate the right type of growth at the right location, supported by the right type of infrastructure needed to reinforce and enhance the unique values of this corridor.

b) Light Rail 3A Principles:

To support the vision, the following seven principles have been established. These principles are of equal value and are intended to be applied harmoniously:

Theme Principle Objectives

Natural features

Preservation of natural features delivers value to local communities and visitors by providing natural setting benefits and distinctive visual breaks.

1. Growth within the corridorrespects and celebrates thedistinctive natural features of thesouthern Gold Coast; includingthe beaches, creeks, ridges andheadlands.

2. Land use planning protectsvalued environmental features toensure their continuedcontribution to the character ofthe southern Gold Coast.

Active green connections

Green connections improve pedestrian experiences and improve the quality of urban places.

1. A hierarchy of complementarypublic realm elements, includingparks and streets, supports futuregrowth.

2. The prioritisation of open andaccessible parks and publicspaces (particularly near highdensity areas) provides improvedopportunities for socialconnection, communityrecreation, access to an outdoorlifestyle and community cohesion.


778 ADOPTED REPORT


Coastal communities

Preservation of diversity, function, heritage and character of coastal communities reinforces their distinctiveness, maintaining the southern Gold Coast’s appeal.

1. The corridors character andcoastal villages sit at the heart ofthe community focused, casualand authentic beach lifestyle offerof the southern Gold Coast.

2. Land use planning in the corridorunlocks the connectivity andefficiency of the coastal villages inthe corridor to better utilise themand connect them to communityfacilities and the amenity of thebeach.

People - oriented movement

Major east-west links connecting to the corridor are reinforced by concentrated renewal and growth.

1. Integrated land use planningenables sustainable travelthrough public transport choiceand active travel, transforming theGold Coast from a car-based cityto one that embraces diversity oftravel choice.

2. Land use planning enhancesnavigation and wayfindingthroughout the corridor.

3. Higher intensity roads arebuffered by higher scale builtform to minimise amenityimpacts.

4. Pedestrian and cycling movementis prioritised.

Economic clusters

The value of each economic activity area is strengthened, harnessing the value of coastal lifestyle amenity provided in the corridor.

1. Strategically important areas thatsupport future economic activityare identified and strengthenedalong the corridor.

2. Land use planning for the light railcorridor supports a shift to ahigher value and moreknowledge-oriented economy thatcan boost resilience andcompliment the City’s economicdevelopment strategy.

3. Agglomeration of economicactivity areas reinforces andsupports their success.

High quality community facilities

Land use planning ensures that community education needs can be locally provided.

1. Integrated land use planningfacilitates the delivery of new andimproved communityinfrastructure to keep pace withprojected growth.

2. Land use planning in the corridorfacilitates the delivery of newurban models of communityinfrastructure that better meet the


779 ADOPTED REPORT


needs of future communities.

Subtropical coastal living

Design will encourage vibrant communities that support community safety and cohesion.

1. Ongoing growth can provide akey opportunity to boost thequality, sustainability, resilienceand climate responsiveness offuture buildings.

2. Future built form will provide anefficient pattern of infill growththat supports housing supply,diversity and affordability whilemaximising amenity andliveability.

3. Built form intensity is focusedaround areas with connectivity,activity and amenity.

2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Temporary Local Planning Instrument No.6 (Development in the Guragunbah flood plain area 2018) (TLPI No.6) and supporting TLPI No.6 Explanatory Statement (Explanatory Statement) was endorsed by Council and submitted on the 5 September 2018 to the Minister for State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning (Minister) for approval. The TLPI No.6 was prepared in accordance with the Minister’s Guideline and Rules (MGRs) as specified in section 23(4) of the Planning Act 2016 (Act).

In accordance with the MGRs, the Department of State Development, Manufacturing, Infrastructure and Planning (Department) issued a notice to pause the timeframe while indicating they are still considering if the material submitted with the proposed TLPI No.6 demonstrates compliance with section 23(1) of the Act.

Subsequent meetings between City officers and the Department have been undertaken to discuss issues associated with the TLPI No. 6 as well as a potential approach to amend the Flood overlay code through an agreed tailored process under section 18 of the Act.

Consultation with the Department and internally also highlighted minor drafting improvements, with the proposed amended versions of the TLPI No.6 and Explanatory Statement attached for endorsement (see Attachments A and B).

Notwithstanding the suggested amendments and changes, City officers are of the opinion that adequate justification has been provided via the Explanatory Statement to enable the Minister to make a determination with regard to section 23(1) of the Act. Consequently, a response to the pause notices will reiterate to the Department, the overall importance of the Guragunbah flood plain in contributing to the flood resilience for a large part of the city.

Whilst the State Government should be commended on enabling the planning legislation to allow for a more streamlined tailored plan making process, the position of City officers is that there is the potential risk to life and property and adverse long-term impacts on the city’s overall flood resilience from development on elevated platforms in high to extreme flood hazard areas in the flood plain, and the TLPI approach mitigates the emergent risk of such development in the Guragunbah flood plain.

3 PURPOSE OF REPORT

The purpose of this report is to seek Council’s endorsement:

i. of amendments to the proposed TLPI No.6 and Explanatory Statement as provided inAttachments A and B

ii. to continue progressing the TLPI No.6

5 DISCUSSION

5.1 TLPI No.6 progress update

The proposed TLPI No.6 and supporting Explanatory Statement, prepared in accordance with the MGRs under section 23(4) of the Act, was endorsed by Council (G18.0828.020) on 28 August 2018. The TLPI No.6 and Explanatory Statement were submitted to the Minister for approval on 5 September 2018.

The MGRs state that the Minister has 20 business days to inform Council if they have decided to adopt or not adopt the proposed TLPI. However, the 20 business day timeframe is contingent on the Minister deciding if the proposed TLPI satisfies section 23(1) of the Act. In the following summary of correspondence received from the Department subsequent to the submission of the TLPI No.6 and Explanatory Statement, it is noted that the Minister is still yet to decide if section 23(1) of the Act is satisfied.


791 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


5.2.1 Justification for TLPI No. 6

The Explanatory Statement provided to the Minister on the 5 September 2018 and written in accordance with section 23(4) of the Act included a detailed statement justifying the need for a TLPI having regard to the matters outlined in section 23(1) of the Act (refer to attachment B).

In addition, the future risk is not limited to the future residents of platform developments in the flood plain area but to the residents of the Nerang River catchment that benefit from the flood storage function of the flood plain area.

To this end, this assessment of future risk to residents in the Nerang River catchment was completed by Council in 1998 as part of the Guragunbah Hydraulic Master Plan. The outcomes of the Master Plan are reflected in City Plan.

As such, City officers are of the view that adequate justification has been provided to enable the Minister to make a determination with regard to section 23(1) of the Act. In summary of the material detailed in the Explanatory Statement, under the current regulatory framework, there continues to be a risk to life and property in the Guragunbah flood plain area on the basis that:

Applicants proposing development on platforms on land exposed to high to extreme floodhazard including functional open space that is to be retained in private ownership and subjectto private management arrangements rather than through undertaking the traditional andaccepted practice of developing land that is resilient to flooding;

the Flood overlay code provisions do not expressly require a minimum area of ‘flood free’ land;and

Proponents having previously been successful in demonstrating that the provisions of theFlood overlay are satisfied, with the support of certified engineers and the provision of FloodEmergency Management Plans (FEMPs) by elevating the occupants of apartments orcommercial floor space above the level of flood hazard by placing development on a platform.

To further reiterate the material included in the Explanatory Statement, it is noted that the likely development attributed to current development applications in the flood plain for residential activities equates to approximately These estimates represent the potential for unplanned growth in an area identified as possessing high to extreme flood hazards. These figures are based on known development proposals and do not include other unforeseen potential development proposals that seek to adopt the same platform method. The City considers that this potential for platform development based upon the Flood overlay code, gives rise to unacceptable risks of serious harm to persons or property.

Consequently, the formal response to the pause notices will reiterate to the Department, the importance of the flood plain in contributing to the flood resilience for a large part of the city.

5.2.2 Tailored process

during recent meetings with the Department, it has been suggested that this amendment to City Plan could be delivered through an alternative statutory process (i.e. a tailored process) as set out under sections 18 to 22 of the Act.

The statutory plan making process set out in section 18 of the Act and the MGR follows four (4) steps as illustrated in Figure 1.

Figure 1: Steps in making and amending a planning scheme

Notwithstanding this, section 18 of the Act, allows a local government to propose a more tailored and streamlined process for plan making to respond to unique circumstances. On the basis that this potential scheme amendment would be limited to only the content proposed in TLPI No.6,

Whilst the State Government should be commended on modifying the amendment process to allow for a more streamlined tailored plan making process, it should be noted that the Act still maintains the ability to create a TLPI where there is a significant risk of a serious adverse cultural, economic, environmental or social outcomes. Given the potential risk to life and property and adverse long-term impacts on the city’s overall flood resilience, the tailored process is not considered appropriate in this particular instance due to the fact that:


793 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


i. The Minister has 11 business days from the 3 December 2018, to make a decision on theCity’s TLPI request and it is likely to take more than 20 business days to get approval from theMinister to agree to a potential tailored process that the City proposes;

ii. There is still a significant time difference between when a TLPI takes effect and when aplanning scheme amendment progressed under a tailored process takes effect.Consequently, any delay in amending City Plan means that there is still an on-going risk ofdevelopment applications potentially being lodged in the Guragunbah flood plain that promotedevelopment in areas that are exposed to high and extreme hazard areas.

iii. There are currently development applications in the flood plain with seven (7) that propose theconstruction of approximately in the flood plain that could result in potentialrisk to life and property. Given that all development applications identify compliance with theFlood overlay code, this is a concern that needs to be addressed.

At this stage, until the Department can provide more certainty around the structure of the tailored process and associated timeframes, it is recommended that council continue to progress with the TLPI No.6.

5.2.3 Drafting improvements

Following submission to the Minister, internal feedback and discussion between Council officers and representatives of the Department resulted in minor editorial corrections to the TLPI No.6 and Explanatory Statement to improve drafting. These corrections include

Removal of references to the ‘Limited development (constrained land) zone’ in TLPI No.6 Section8 ‘Application of Temporary Local Planning Instrument’ and the Explanatory Statement section‘Description of proposed TLPI’ so as to remove any ambiguity with regard to the spatial applicationof the TLPI No.6 in the area mapped in Appendix 1 of TLPI No.6;

In the Explanatory Statement Section 2 ‘Why the local government has proposed to make theTLPI’ paragraph 4 includes a more precise description of the land use zones in the flood plainarea and a new paragraph 7 has been added describing controls in the Emerging communitieszone.

Reordering of the references to TLPI No.6 Part 3 items (c) and (d) to ensure relevant tables citedin the TLPI No.6 are in order; and

In Section 1, the Short Title of TLPI No.6 was written as ‘Temporary Local Planning InstrumentNo. 6 (Minimum Land above designated flood level development in the Guragunbah flood plain)2018’ which is incorrect and should be replaced with ‘Temporary Local Planning Instrument No. 6(Development in the Guragunbah flood plain) 2018’.

The 29 October 2018 correspondence from the Department suggested that:

the rewording of PO and AO16 as the current wording may not result in the TLPI provisionbeing applied as it is intended; and

the referencing of tables in Schedule 1 ‘Dictionary’ be corrected.

In addition, internal feedback sought clarification on the definition of ‘Development’ as it applied under the TLPI, ‘Engineered Platforms’ and how to address the exposure of balconies (attached to a building) that protrude over flood hazards, This has resulted in the inclusion of new definitions included in Schedule 1 of the TLPI No.6.

Lastly and a consequence of internal feedback, the requirement for business and industrial activities in the flood plain area to provide 60% of land at or above the Designated Flood Level was amended to 50% to reduce the potential for arguments regarding inconsistency with the outcomes sought in AO16.1


794 ADOPTED REPORT

REDACTED


These matters are detailed below.

i. PO and AO16 are currently worded as:

Table 8.2.8-2: Flood overlay code – for assessable development

Performance outcomes Acceptable outcomes

Minimum area above Designated Flood Level in the Guragunbah flood plain area

PO16

Development involving reconfiguring a lot in the Guragunbah flood plain area must ensure that any lot created has a sufficient area of land above the Designated Flood Level to effectively accommodate the associated intended use while also adequately mitigating the risks and/or hazards associated with flooding.

AO16.1

Where development associated with reconfiguring a lot in the Guragunbah flood plain area is for Residential activities and Short-term accommodation and involves lot sizes of 500m2 or greater, 50% of the area of each lot or 400m2 of each lot (whichever is greater) must be at or above the Designated Flood Level.

AO16.2

Where development associated with reconfiguring a lot in the Guragunbah flood plain area, is for Residential activities and Short-term accommodation and involves lot sizes of less than 500m2, 70% of the area of each lot or 300m2 of each lot (whichever is greater) must be at or above the Designated Flood Level.

AO16.3

Where development associated with reconfiguring a lot in the Guragunbah flood plain area, is for Business activities or Industrial activities, 60% of the area of each lot must be at or above the Designated Flood Level.

Further to the Department’s suggestions and internal officer feedback, PO and AO16 have been reworded to read as:

PO16

Development in the Guragunbah flood plain area must ensure that, without the use of engineered platforms, there is a sufficient area of land above the Designated Flood Level to effectively accommodate the land’s use while also adequately mitigating the risks and/or hazards associated with flooding.

AO16.1

ROL

Where development is or includes:

(a) Reconfiguring a Lot in the Guragunbah flood plainarea that creates a Lot or Lots of 500 m2 or greater inarea, 50% of the area of each Lot or 400 m2 of eachLot (whichever is the greater) must be comprised ofland at or above the Designated Flood Level, withoutthe use of Engineered Platforms.

(b) Reconfiguring a Lot in the Guragunbah flood plainarea that creates a Lot or Lots of less than 500 m2 inarea, 70% of the area of each Lot or 300 m2 of eachLot (whichever is the greater) must be comprised ofland at or above the Designated Flood Level, withoutthe use of Engineered Platforms.

Note: For reconfiguring a lot intended for Business activities or Industrial activities may require a larger area of land above the DFL in accordance with AO16.2.

AO16.2

MCU

(a) Where the development is, or includes, a materialchange of use for Residential activities that may ormay not include Short-term accommodation in theGuragunbah flood plain area, land is above theDesignated Flood Level consistent with theapplication of the requirements of AO16.1(a) or (b).

(a) Where the development is, or includes, a materialchange of use for Business activities or Industrialactivities in the Guragunbah flood plain area, 50% ofthe area of land accommodating the use, is above theDesignated Flood Level, without the use ofEngineered Platforms.

ii. With regard to the points raised concerning the definition of ‘development’ and ‘engineeredplatforms’ these terms have been defined in Schedule 1 Dictionary of the TLPI as:

“Development” means material change of use and reconfiguring a lot. The term does notinclude building work, plumbing and drainage work or operational work.

“Engineered Platform” means a structure that is elevated above ground level. The termdoes not include a building pad created by means of cutting, filling or compacting material.

iii. Lastly, it is considered that overhanging balconies are associated with the use being applied forin the development application and are relevant to the TLPI. However it will remain thediscretion of officers assessing developments to determine the circumstance where itdemonstrated the development meets the relevant performance outcome.

15 CONCLUSION

The Minister is yet to decide about TLPI No.6. Officers from the Department have written to Council pausing the assessment of the proposed TLPI No.6 and seeking further justification that the delay involved in using the process in section 18 to 22 of the Act to make or amend a local planning instrument would increase the risk to people and property in the Guragunbah flood plain area.

In addition, Departmental officers have outlined tailored processes to advance an amendment to the City Plan Flood overlay and reduce the time taken for its assessment and approval under section 18 of the Act.

After reviewing the Department’s suggestions, Council officers remain of a view that a delay in amending the City Plan Flood overlay code will increase flood risk. Further, given recent experience with advancing a City Plan amendment under a tailored process, it is not clear that a tailored amendment process will proceed quickly.

Nonetheless, editorial corrections to the proposed TLPI No.6 and the supporting Explanatory Statement are required to ensure it is implemented as intended. This report seeks Council’s endorsement of the proposed amendments. Attachments A and B include the amended versions, which are recommended to be forwarded to the Minister for approval.

Division 1 – Written statement as to why the local government proposes to make the TLPI and how the proposed TLPI complies with section 23(1) of the Planning Act 2016

As required by the Minister’s Guideline and Rules – July 2017, Schedule 3

1. Description of the proposed TLPI

The proposed temporary local planning instrument is cited as Temporary Local Planning Instrument No.6 (Development in the Guragunbah flood plain area) 2018 (proposed TLPI).

The proposed TLPI applies to the area of land identified as the Guragunbah flood plain mapped in Appendix A Map 1 included in the proposed TLPI.

The proposed TLPI seeks to affect the current Planning Scheme being the City Plan 2016 Version 6.

The proposed TLPI creates new assessment benchmarks that will apply to the assessment of development applications against the Limited development (constrained land) zone code and Flood overlay code to:

(a) ensure development in the Guragunbah flood plain is not exposed to high to extreme flood hazards,unless high to extreme hazard for that use is specified by Table 8.2.8-4 of the Flood overlay code and

(b) the sustainable flood mitigation of Flood prone land in the City is delivered through the provision of landat or above the defined flood level.

Under the Planning Act 2016 (the Act) section 23(6), a temporary local planning instrument operates for up to two years. It is intended that the proposed TLPI will be repealed by adoption of an amendment of the City Plan that specifically repeals the TLPI, in accordance with section 24.

2. Why the local government has proposed to make the TLPI

The City has a strong culture of flood risk management and a strong focus has been on the long-term management of the Guragunbah flood plain because this natural asset provides an essential flood storage function that mitigates the impacts of flooding in the City’s most urbanised and developed catchment, the Nerang River catchment. The Guragunbah flood plain is an 1836 hectare area of generally low lying land bounded by the Robina Parkway, the Nerang River, the Pacific Highway and the southern bounds of the Mudgeeraba Creek catchment.

In 1998, Council completed the Guragunbah Hydraulic Master Plan and adopted the Guragunbah Structure Plan. These reports identified the Guragunbah as the largest urban flood plain in Australia, providing critical flood storage function benefits for the City. The reports informed the development of the 2003 Our Living City Guragunbah Local Area Plan which stated:

“It is envisaged that the Guragunbah area will ultimately comprise a limited mix of urban residential and tourist facilities, within a predominant environment of open space and ecologically sustainable waterways, which recognise the considerable recreation potential of the flood plain. In order to maximise the open character of the flood plain and minimise the cost of urban service provision and emergency response during flood events, urban development is expected to be clustered and, where possible, to represent a consolidation existing urban communities. As such, residential buildings may range from single dwelling houses to apartments, in an expansive landscaped environment, depending upon the opportunities presented by each site.

…

In all cases, development must be designed to ensure no adverse flooding impacts, having regard to the cumulative effect of all likely development within the flood plain. In addition, development will need to


822 ADOPTED REPORT

iSpot #722227268 Page 4 of 8

ensure that the level of risk to occupants is acceptable during flood events and that appropriate emergency response can be facilitated.”

The City Plan continues to focus on the effective long-term management of the Guragunbah flood plain, and recognises it as a significant natural asset that provides flood management functions and opportunities for ecological restoration, water quality and flood resilience.

The City Plan designates the Guragunbah floodplain area mostly as a Limited development (constrained land) zone with the exception of three lots zoned Emerging Communities (Lot 1 SP190865, Lot 2 RP223566 and Lot 902 SP108453).

The Limited development (constrained land) zone code allows for limited opportunities for low to medium intensity, low to medium intensity, low to medium rise residential and tourism related activities, it is to occur in the:

least flood affected; and

least environmentally sensitive areas.

To determine such locations, development is further guided and informed by:

the Conceptual Land Use Map 10 – Merrimac/Carrara flood plain special management area;

the Environmental significant overlay code and associated mapping; and

the Flood overlay code which seeks to:

(i) avoid, if practicable, or otherwise lessen, the adverse impacts of flooding and ensuredevelopment is located, designed and managed to mitigate the risk to life and property;

(ii) protect the flood storage function of the city's flood plains;

(iii) place no extra burden on the city's counter-disaster response efforts during a flood emergency;

(iv) equitably share development constraints and development potential within a single rivercatchment and its sub-catchments; and

(v) equitably share the costs and benefits of flood-mitigation infrastructure within a river catchmentand its sub-catchments.

The Emerging Communities zone code provides for a number of overall outcomes to ensure development is appropriately planned for and staged. The zone code notes that high risk natural hazard areas are not developed or are sensitively developed.

However, despite this long standing policy framework, there is a material risk of serious harm to persons or property for developed activities on platforms exposed to high to extreme hazard flood hazards if development of that type happens in the Guragunbah flood plain. The potential for such development proposals may be attributed to:

Applicant proposing development on platforms on land exposed to high to extreme flood hazardincluding functional open space that will be retained in private ownership and subject to privatemanagement arrangements rather than through undertaking the traditional and accepted practice ofdeveloping land that is resilient to flooding;

the Flood overlay code provisions not expressly requiring a minimum area of ‘flood free’ land; and

Proponents having previously been successful in demonstrating that the provisions of the Flood overlayare satisfied, with the support of certified engineers and the provision of Flood Emergency ManagementPlans (FEMPs) by elevating the occupants of apartments or commercial floor space above the level offlood hazard by placing development on a platform.


823 ADOPTED REPORT

iSpot #722227268 Page 5 of 8

The likely development attributed to current development applications in the flood plain for residential activities equates to approximately 3,105 dwellings. These estimates represents the potential for unplanned growth in an area identified as possessing high to extreme flood hazards. These figures are based on known development proposals and do not include other unforeseen potential development proposals that seek to adopt the same platform method. The Council considers this potential for platform development based upon the Flood Overlay code gives rise to unacceptable risks of harm to persons or property that are serious.

3. How the proposed TLPI complies with the Act section 23(1)

Section 23(1) of the Planning Act 2016, provides that a local government can make a TLPI if the local government and Minister decide:

a) there is significant risk of serious adverse cultural, economic, environmental or social conditionshappening in the local government area; and

b) the delay involved in using the process in sections 18 to 22 to make or amend another local planninginstrument would increase the risk; and

c) the making of the TLPI would not adversely affect State interests.

The proposed TLPI No.6 is considered to satisfy each of these requirements.

(a)(i) Significant adverse cultural conditions

Council has implemented long standing performance criteria for development in flood affected land in the city. These policies have contributed to ensuring the city maintains a high level of resilience to flooding. Flood risk escalates where the consequence of persistent exposure to flooding events (frequent and extreme) is high. As such, developers of residential uses are directed to ensure their flood mitigation measures achieve an on-site flood hazard of medium or less while ensuring adverse impacts (such as an increase in flood heights or changes in flood conveyance) are not transferred elsewhere in the catchment.

The minimum flood free land policy has been in place since the introduction of the superseded planning scheme. Specifically, the minimum flood free land policy was contained in the Reconfiguration of a Lot code because this code dealt with the configuration of land. However, development in the Guragunbah flood plain may only be for a Material Change of Use (MCU), which only deals with built form and not the configuration of land.

Proposing certain development (such as, but not limited to residential activities) be exposed to high to extreme hazards is contrary to the accepted practice, ensuring developments maintains their resilience to the impacts of flooding. In the absence of a minimum flood free land policy in the City Plan, development of platforms exposed to high to extreme flood hazard in the Guragunbah flood plain potentially demonstrates that this is an acceptable mitigation measure. As such, the traditional culture to flood risk management is currently being undermined.

(a)(ii) Significant adverse social conditions

Development utilising platforms will expose users to high to extreme flood hazard in the Guragunbah flood plain. The frequent flooding of the under croft will also require residents to undertake ongoing cleaning, repairs and maintenance. In addition, the ponding of flood water for extended periods of time may create adverse environmental conditions that could enable conditions for vector borne disease and odour, thereby impacting user livability.

Current research on mitigating flood risk for residential development anticipates individuals taking action on their own private property in an ad-hoc way, and generally concludes that mitigating risks at the individual level can be highly complex. These mitigation actions to address the impact resulting from frequent flooding on their properties is likely to also result in non-compliance with conditions of approval.


824 ADOPTED REPORT

iSpot #722227268 Page 6 of 8

This complexity escalates with residents or users interacting with corporate structures and by-laws to address perceived or actual flood risk to common property on which their residence substantially relies.

There are no comparable examples of development that would enable the City to anticipate how to arrange the organisation of public and private responsibilities and the equitable distribution of costs now and into the future with regard to platform developments of this type, form or magnitude. The social impact of these developments in these terms is significant and likely to shift between private and public entities over time.

There are potential safety, health and crime prevention through environmental design (CEPTD) issues associated with extensive open floodable under crofts.

(a)(iii) Significant adverse economic conditions

Sustained experience of regular flooding is likely to promote in-situ, ad-hoc mitigation works by individuals which will impact the hydraulic and environmental function of the flood plain, undermining catchment based mitigation and strategic planning.

Building on land subject to frequent flooding creates a high maintenance form of urban development and results in a shorter life cycle of development (i.e. more frequent need for asset renewal). This is because development that is exposed to regular inundation events will require on-going maintenance, inspection and experience wear and tear and result in the diminished life cycle of the asset. Damage is also likely to occur if debris in flood waters collides with platform structures.

Platform development will also cause an additional cost burden on Council to ensure compliance with conditions of approval over the lifecycle of the building.

It is not clear how costs associated with managing flood risk to the platforms will be managed now and into the future. It is unknown as to how flood insurance costs will be distributed among the users of the developments or if flood insurance products are available for these types of development as the State’s projected sea level rise maps also show this land as being subject to permanent tidal inundation due to a sea level rise of 80cm by the year 2100.

A delay or inability to rebuild or recoup losses after flood events also contributes to the diminishing of the city’s flood resilience.

It is likely developments in the flood plain will be supported by flood emergency management plans or flood emergency evacuation plans or could be isolated during flood events. It is intended for these plans to be enacted during flood emergency events. These plans either provide for the evacuation of residents in flood emergencies or in the event residents become isolated because they are unable to be evacuated during a flood emergency. The plans are likely to be implemented by building or strata managers or the residents. Flood emergency management measures need to be implemented by experienced people and regularly practiced. Inexperienced practitioners may create unintended or adverse outcomes that could increase flood risks to users. Isolation of a large number of people in the flood plain could contribute to the demands of emergency services during flood events.

These factors contribute to these developments possessing a high level of economic uncertainty which increases when multiplied by the magnitude of development proposed in the Guragunbah flood plain.

This level of uncertainty will create a significant adverse economic impact.

(a)(iv) Significant adverse environmental conditions

The Guragunbah flood plain provides a significant area of undeveloped low lying open space abutting the intensely urbanized areas of the Nerang River catchments. This open space area supports active recreational areas such as golf courses as well as passive open space areas. The open space also accommodates conservation values, waterways and wetlands of state and local significance.


825 ADOPTED REPORT

iSpot #722227268 Page 7 of 8

The low lying areas of the Guragunbah flood plain will be inundated due to sea level rise and storm tide by 2100, according to State government mapping.

Development of platforms which projects out into the nominated open space corridors will adversely impact upon:

the open space character of the flood plain; and hydraulic and environmental function of the flood plain which requires prolonged inundation and

ponding of flood water which is inhibited by the platforms.

Loss of hydraulic function would lead to flood water ponding under the platform extended periods of time, resulting in potential health and livability (i.e. odour, amenity, etc.) impacts.

(b) Increase in risk to delay in amending City Plan

Given the importance of maintaining the long-term function and resilience of the city’s flood plains, it is proposed that this immediate risk be addressed by way of the proposed TLPI No.6 as an effective tool that can apply in the interim period, while an amendment to the City Plan is finalised.

If this issue is not addressed through the proposed TLPI No.6, the development pressure could potentially result in an outcome for the Guragunbah flood plain that is inconsistent with the flood mitigation policy intent of the City Plan and State Planning Policy. This will result in:

i. unplanned growth in the flood plain;ii. adverse impacts to the hydraulic and environmental functioning of the flood plain; andiii. has the potential to create serious adverse economic, environmental and social conditions in the city’s

primary flood plain; andiv. is likely to result in the creation of development induced material risks of serious harm to persons and

property.

(c) Not adversely affecting State interests

The making of the proposed TLPI No.6 would not adversely affect State interests as the maintenance of the flood absorption capacity and the management of community expectations relating to development in the Guragunbah flood plain and are matters currently regulated in the City Plan.

The proposed TLPI No.6 is consistent with the State interest guideline – Natural hazards, risk and resilience, dated July 2017, which contemplates local government including development requirements in planning schemes with respect to development within an area affected by a natural hazard such as flood.

3 PURPOSE OF REPORT

The intention of this report is to confirm the City’s commitment for exempting development applications for Operational Works (change to ground level) at Robina City Parklands and Gold Coast Central Park.


Council has resolved previously that one of the two sites discussed in this report could accept fill. This fill assisted in the activation of Robina City Parklands as it functions today.

Ex Minute CP12.1212.010:

1 That Council utilises the provisions of Section 14.3 of the Guragunbah Hydraulic Master Plan to excuse approximately 75,000m³ of floodplain storage loss to support the development of a district sporting facility within the 20ha of open space gifted to Council via any agreement between the developers of Emerald Lakes and Council.

5 DISCUSSION

The City owns two separate but adjacent parcels of land; both located in Robina (refer to figure 1). These parcels have been earmarked for development as public parkland for more than a decade. The City has allocated budget for the design and development of these public parkland projects within the current four year capital works budget.

City Officers are presently developing the design of these parkland projects. Prior to proceeding further, officers are seeking confirmation of Council’s ongoing commitment that these projects should progress utilising the exemption set out in Queensland State Planning Regulation 2017 Schedule 6 Part 3 Section 8.

It is prudent for the City, in managing its own nuisance liability risk to voluntarily undertake an assessment of impacts. This will be in the form of ongoing hydraulic impact assessments undertaken by both engineers within the Transport and Infrastructure Directorate and by external consultants undertaking detailed design of the proposed parkland development.

Budget/Funding Considerations

This report intends to take advantage of an opportunity for the City to capitalise on M1 upgrade works (in the south of the city), which will deliver cost savings for the M1 project, the City and deliver significant community benefit.

The budget required to support the development of these parklands are appropriately drawn from Infrastructure Charges revenue. Both these projects are in response to the city’s growing population.

The funding for the design and initial construction activity is approved in the 4 year capital work budget.

Both projects are listed in the Local Government Infrastructure Plan as trunk works.

8 RISK MANAGEMENT

The recommendations contained within this report contribute to the mitigation of the following risks:

Corporate Risk CM443: Socially isolated residents resulting in low resilience and poor ability to withstand threats to health and wellbeing.

Directorate Risk CM444: Core community and social infrastructure and related services are not provided in areas of need, by all levels of government, resulting in threats to community wellbeing.
