Open lines of communication between the South Burnett Regional Council and developers can lead to fast-tracked approvals of applications, Mayor Wayne Kratzmann said today.<\/p>\n

\u201cProspective developers and applicants are invited to speak to Council about their proposed development prior to making an application,” he said. <\/p>\n

“This service is provided free of charge and Council can fast-track an assessment due to having a better understanding of the application and discussing Council\u2019s requirements beforehand.\u201d<\/p>\n

An example of the process in action is the recent approval by Council of a proposed extension to the Kingaroy Car and Dog Wash in Rogers Drive, Kingaroy. <\/p>\n

The business applied to expand to have three double-length car wash bays, allowing for the washing of luxury 4X4 vehicles, larger caravans and boats while under tow.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis application was completed quickly due to the open lines of communication between the business owner and Council\u2019s planning team,\u201d Mayor Kratzmann said. <\/p>\n

\u201cThis extension is also a great example of Council supporting business growth in the region. We have recently had a few planning applications for businesses and this is a great indicator that the South Burnett is open for business.\u201d<\/p>\n

South Burnett Planning Manager Chris Du Plessis said the owner of the carwash met with Council prior to making a formal application to discuss the details of the proposal and Council\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n

“An application was formally made on April 3, 2013, and a decision provided to the applicant on May 3, 2013,” Mr Du Plessis said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis quick turnaround is shorter than the time allowed under the State Government\u2019s planning legislation requirements.<\/p>\n

“Council was able to assess the application without requesting further information from the applicant thanks to the applicant doing the necessary work in the first instance.\u201d<\/p>\n

The approved application allows for both the existing car wash and the approved extension harvesting rainwater from Harvey Norman’s roof as well as on-site reuse of wash water. Two extra rainwater tanks will be installed on site to accommodate more storage.<\/p>\n

\u201cRainwater harvesting is better for the environment and can reduce the load on Council\u2019s water resources saving money for the owner of the business as well as the community,\u201d Mr Du Plessis said.<\/p>\n

He said that as a result of meeting with the owners, Council gained a good understanding of the benefits the development would bring to the community and the environment and the owners gained a good understanding of Council\u2019s requirements.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
