APPLICANT’S REQUEST FOR FURTHER REFUND LOCALITY PLAN RECOMMENDATION: A. That Council resolve not to agree to a further refund in application fees for the development having regard to the current fees and charges and the nature of the development. Agenda – Planning & Environment Committee 8/4/09 - #2002546 251 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY: At the Ordinary Meeting held on 27 November 2008 Council refused the development application for a preliminary Approval to Override the Planning Scheme for the development of a Retirement Facility (in accordance with a submitted Guidelines document) and the Reconfiguration of the land into 190 leasehold lots, common property, road and open space. The refusal was based on the planning grounds that the land located on the northwest corner of the Captain Cook Highway and Ferrero Road is outside the identified Port Douglas Urban Area and secondly, the residential development was considered to be unsuitable to the location of the land. An application fee of $66,445.00 was paid to the Douglas Shire Council for the application based on the fees and charges applicable at the time of lodgement. Request was made for the application fee, for the reconfiguration component, to be reduced. Douglas Shire Officers did not have authority to determine the fee refund request and had advised the applicant the request would need to be determined by Council. The matter had not been determined prior to the Council amalgamation. Representations were made to the General Manager Planning & Environment and the Manager Development Assessment, who have authority to determine application fee adjustments. A partial refund of $14,205.00 was issued based on the additional fee as it was originally calculated under the former Douglas Shire fees and charges and the fee that would apply under the new Cairns Regional Council’s fees and charges. Further representations have been made including a formal request for a further refund. A copy of the request is included in Appendix 1. The applicant undertook discussions with Council Officers where it was clearly advised that the development would not be supported by Council officers. The applicant had an opportunity at this time to withdraw the application and did not. Through the recent discussions with Council officers there was no agreement given that a further refund would be forthcoming. It is not agreed that any additional fees should be refunded.

  • Water and Waste Committee 21 October 2009
    1 WATER AND WASTE COMMITTEE 1 21 OCTOBER 2009 WATER SUPPLY AND DEMAND, PORT DOUGLAS/MOSSMAN WATER SUPPLY SCHEME Eric Zesers : 24/22/212-03: #2339446 RECOMMENDATION: That Council notes the report. INTRODUCTION: The water supply for Mossman, Port Douglas, Craiglie, Mowbray, Newell Beach, Cooya Beach and Cassowary is sourced directly from Rex Creek which is a tributary of the Mossman River. Due to unprecedented dry conditions, water levels in Rex Creek have fallen to levels that have required the following actions be undertaken: • Implementation of Level 1 Water restrictions for Port Douglas, Mossman, Craiglie, Mowbray, Newell Beach, Cooya Beach and Cassowary, on 2 October 2009. • Progression to Level 2 Water Restrictions on 12 October 2009. • Application to the Department of Environment and Resource Management (DERM) for a temporary emergency extraction permit for water from the Mossman River. • Application to DERM for an internal review of the original decision relating to the licence limit to extract water from Rex Creek to supply water to Port Douglas and Mossman. • Application to DERM to exceed license limits for water extraction during periods of low flow. This report provides details of the above matters. BACKGROUND: The winter of 2009 has seen the lowest winter rainfall on record at the Low Isles Light House – 25.7 mm (average is 136.4 mm) and at the Cairns Airport – 17.2 mm (average is 102mm). As a result of the unprecedented dry conditions, run of river water supplies such as Rex Creek can also be expected to reach record lows or potentially could dry up completely.

  • 7.2.4 Port Douglas/Craiglie Local Plan Code
    7.2.4 Port Douglas/Craiglie local plan code 7.2.4.1 Application (1) This code applies to assessing development within the Port Douglas/Craiglie local plan area as identified on the Port Douglas/Craiglie local plan maps contained in Schedule 2. (2) When using this code, reference should be made to Part 5. 7.2.4.2 Context and setting Editor’s note - This section is extrinsic material under section 15 of the Statutory Instruments Act 1992 and is intended to assist in the interpretation of the Port Douglas/Craiglie local plan code. The Port Douglas/Craiglie local plan encompasses the traditional Port Douglas town centre and surrounding tourist and residential areas, including Four Mile Beach and Craiglie. Port Douglas was officially named in 1877. It was initially settled as the port of entry and supply for the Hodgkinson goldfield on the Hann Tableland which was proclaimed in 1876. It was the dominant port in Far North Queensland until a decision was made to establish Cairns as the terminus for a new railway in 1884. This ended the town’s dominance, and it gradually became a small centre for local residents and fishing activities. During the 1970s and 1980s, a renewed interest in Far North Queensland as a holiday destination led to a boom in large scale tourism and residential development with Port Douglas re-emerging as a premium destination. The Captain Cook Highway runs north-south to the west of Port Douglas through Craiglie (Four Mile). Craiglie caters for the permanent resident population associated with Port Douglas, as well as providing for service industries to support business in the town.

  • Water Quality Improvement Plan Douglas Shire Far North Queensland
    Water Quality Improvement Plan Douglas Shire Far North Queensland December 2006 Prepared by Douglas Shire Council, Far North Queensland Funds provided by Natural Heritage Trust, an Australian Government Initiative Compiled by Richard Davis, 2006 This publication may be cited as Richard Davis (2006): Douglas Shire Water Quality Improvement Plan. Douglas Shire Council Executive Summary Background 1. In late 2003 the Queensland and Australian Governments agreed to the Reef Water Quality Protection Plan (RWQPP), the objective of which is to halt and reverse the decline in water quality entering the Reef within 10 years. The RWQPP identifies nutrients and sediment as pollutants impacting on the inner reefs and seagrass areas of the Reef. Under the auspices of the RWQPP, Water Quality Improvement Plans (WQIPs) are being developed and implemented as the primary management vehicle for achieving long-term ecologically sustainable pollutant loads to Reef waters. 2. Douglas Shire was chosen for the initial WQIP and associated projects, which commenced prior to release of the RWQPP, because of (a) the willingness of the Douglas community to accept and adopt change to protect its environment, and (b) the relative small size of the Douglas catchments and therefore likelihood of demonstrating effective water quality management over a shorter period. 3. WQIPs, prepared through the NHT Coastal Catchments Initiative (CCI), are environmental management plans that codify and implement Australia’s National Water Quality Management Strategy (NWQMS) and the National Principles for the Provision of Water for Ecosystems. 4. This WQIP: • identifies current status of pollutant loads; • identifies the Environmental Values (EVs) of water bodies in Douglas Shire, and the Water Quality Objectives (WQOs) that will protect the EVs; and • commits to a set of management actions to achieve and maintain those EVs and WQOs, and which will take the first steps to reducing the current pollutant loads towards the achievement of sustainable pollutant loads.
