The planning schemes for the areas previously under the control of Atherton, Eacham, Herberton and Mareeba Shire Councils will remain valid until a new planning scheme is prepared for the region and approved through extensive community consultation.

Planning schemes are used to regulate development within the shire and help to deliver desirable outcomes. They can help Council to:

  • ensure that incompatible land uses don't impact on one another
  • protect our resources such as waterways, native vegetation and rural land
  • provide more efficient infrastructure such as water, sewerage and road networks.

Copies of planning schemes are available for viewing in shire libraries and cd versions can be purchased from service centres.

Notice is given that on 12 May 2010 Tablelands Regional Council adopted an amendment to the 2006 Planning Scheme for the former Eacham Shire Council. The amendment only applies to that part of the planning scheme area described as Lot 267 on NR8023 and situated at 234 Junction Road, Mungalli.

The purpose of the amendment is to give effect to a 1998 decision by the former Eacham Shire Council to approve the rezoning of part of Lot 267 on NR8023 to Special Facilities (Tourist Accommodation). A copy of the planning scheme amendment is available for inspection and purchase at Council's Atherton, Malanda, Herberton and Mareeba offices
