    Priority Infrastructure Plan & Infrastructure Charges Schedule

    PART 8 INFRASTRUCTURE DIVISIONS 1-3 PRIORITY INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN & INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES SCHEDULE PART 8 INFRASTRUCTURE DIVISION 1 PRIORITY INFRASTRUCTURE PLAN (PIP) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This is the Priority Infrastructure Plan (PIP) for Gold Coast City Council prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Integrated Planning Act 1997 (IPA) and IPA Infrastructure Guidelines 1/04 and 2/04. The PIP will be subject to reviews in accordance with the requirements of IPA and will also be reviewed after the adoption of the Local Growth Management Strategy, which is required under the South East Queensland Regional Plan 2005-2026 (SEQRP). 1.1. Purpose The purpose of the PIP is to define the scale, type, timing and location of growth in the Gold Coast in order to plan future trunk infrastructure and to determine the charges required to fund it in a timely fashion. IPA requires integration of land use and infrastructure planning to allow infrastructure to be supplied in a coordinated, efficient and orderly manner. This enables sustainable development and encourages urban growth in areas where adequate infrastructure exists or can be provided efficiently. 1.2. PIP Terms, Acronyms and Definitions Definitions are provided to assist the reader’s understanding of the PIP. Where appropriate, reference should be made to the relevant legislation for statutory definitions. Term Acronym Definition Additional Trunk (a) the costs of supplying infrastructure to development that is: Infrastructure Costs (i) inconsistent with the assumptions about the type, scale, location or timing of future development stated in the PIP, or , (ii) is located wholly or partially outside the PIA, and (b) would impose additional trunk infrastructure costs on the infrastructure provider taking into account: (i) infrastructure charges or regulated infrastructure charges levied on the development, and (ii) trunk infrastructure supplied or to be supplied by the applicant in respect of the development.

  • TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement

    TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement

    TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement Part E – Impacts of the proposed Tugun Bypass on the socioeconomic environment TUGUN BYPASS Environmental Impact Statement 12. Land use, planning and transport 12.1 Introduction The relationship between available transport systems and the development of land has been recognised for many years. The introduction of new transport infrastructure can stimulate the development of adjacent rural land for more intensive uses and, at the same time, the development of land will generate a demand for movement. Where land has been reserved for a future road for many years, adjacent uses will often anticipate its implementation. The process of traffic modelling, which seeks to identify the anticipated effects of building a major new link in the road network, depends on an understanding that the movement generated by future land uses requires accommodation by the available infrastructure. This process is tempered by the application of planning and transport policies. The following two chapters address these issues. Chapter 12 deals with land use issues and transport in general following the opening of the bypass. Chapter 13 focuses on potential impacts on the community, including effects resulting from the re-distribution of traffic to the proposed bypass and those occurring as a direct consequence of the introduction of major infrastructure to the area. Other impacts, such as noise, air quality and visual effects, collectively influence the amenity of residents and business occupants who would be affected by the new road. The impacts of the individual environmental effects are described in detail in Chapters 9, 14 and 16, and in Technical Papers 10, 11 and 13.

The project would traverse areas under the jurisdictions of Queensland and NSW. The proposed alignment also passes through the Gold Coast (Coolangatta) Airport which is Commonwealth land and currently leased by Gold Coast Airport Limited. In NSW, the project is subject to assessment under Part 3A of the Environmental Planning and Assessment Act 1979 (EP&A Act) and the approval of the Minister for Planning is required. This report was prepared in accordance with Section 75I of the EP&A Act, which requires the Director-General to provide a report to the Minister for the purposes of the Minister’s consideration of the application for approval to carry out the project.
