Regional land use categories - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - The regional land use categories are identified in ShapingSEQ 2023 and provide the spatial context for the South East Queensland (SEQ) regulatory provisions found in the Planning Regulation 2017. All land in SEQ is allocated into one of three regional land use categories being Regional Landscape and Rural Production Area, Urban Footprint and Rural Living Area.
Regional biodiversity value - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - Regional biodiversity values have been mapped in SEQ and identify: - large tracts of vegetation - aquatic connectivity - areas of species richness and diversity - areas of ecosystem representation and uniqueness - climate adaptation zones and refugia. These values are critical at a regional level to enable the protection of interacting ecosystem functions and their associated species and diversity. These values are to be investigated and refined by local government for protection as matters of local environment significance (MLES). This is in addition to protecting those areas identified as having MSES. These areas are important as they contribute to an ecologically sound and resilient regional network of habitats and corridors. Data remains unchanged from ShapingSEQ 2017.
Regionally significant greenspace - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - Publicly owned or managed land that the community generally has a legal right to access. Regional recreation trails also form part of the regional greenspace network. Trails can offer excellent recreation opportunities to families, bicycle tourists, mountain bike riders, historical enthusiasts, horse riders and walkers. Note: Refer to ShapingSEQ’s sub-regional directions for identification of regional greenspace networks. Data remains unchanged from ShapingSEQ 2017.
Regional biodiversity corridor - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - Regional biodiversity corridors connect or improve connectivity through targeted rehabilitation of natural assets, including between existing areas of MSES or regional biodiversity values; they are important for the resilience of the region. These corridors are to be investigated and refined by local government for consideration as MLES where MSES does not already exist.Note: Corridors mapped within the Urban Footprint follow existing natural landforms such as waterways e.g. Pine River to Hays Inlet. Data remains unchanged from ShapingSEQ 2017.
Regionally significant scenic amenity - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - Landscape areas identified by the SEQ regional amenity methodology as having scenic amenity value.
Development area - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - As described in ShapingSEQ 2023, South East Queensland Development Areas are identified as proposed growth areas, requiring coordinated land use and infrastructure planning or significant infrastructure investment to unlock for urban development. SEQDAs reflect areas that require coordinated planning and delivery to cater for regionally significant residential and/or employment supply. SEQ Development Areas are identified in ShapingSEQ 2023 and provide the spatial context for the South East Queensland regulatory provisions found in the Planning Regulation 2017.
Significant tourist activity area - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - SEQ Significant Tourist Activities area (STA) are important economic drivers in the South East Queensland region that provide domestic and international visitors with diverse tourism experiences. The long-term needs and operations of significant tourist activities require support and consideration in the planning of proposed growth areas. SEQ Significant Tourist Activities areas are identified in ShapingSEQ 2023 and provide the spatial context for the South East Queensland regulatory provisions found in the Planning
Northern inter urban break - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - The Moreton Bay-Sunshine Coast Northern Inter-Urban Break (NIUB) is protected in perpetuity as a regionally significant green break providing open space, amenity and other non-urban landscape values between the major urban areas of the Metro and Northern sub-regions. The NIUB will also serve to retain their distinctive lifestyles. The SEQ NIUB is identified in ShapingSEQ 2023 and provides the spatial context for the South East Queensland (SEQ) regulatory provisions found in the Planning Regulation 2017.
Major enterprise and industrial area - South East Queensland Regional Plan 2023 - ShapingSEQ - SEQ Major Enterprise and Industrial Areas (MEIAs) area well-located industrial land that is planned, delivered and protected from incompatible uses. SEQ MEIA, including their supply chain networks, are planned, facilitated, and delivered using a regional approach that recognises their importance to the regional economy and to national and global trade. SEQ Major Enterprise and Industrial Areas (MEIA) are identified in ShapingSEQ 2023 and provide the spatial context for the South East Queensland regulatory provisions found in the Planning Regulation 2017.
