notice period

public notice period

We have been instructed by the Department of Transport and Planning (DTP) to give further notice of the Cooba Solar Project Planning application. This is due to an incidental error in the Form 2 notice for planning application PA2403122 regarding the GPO Box Number. DTP has apologised for the error.

As a result, the project will be on public notice between 15 January 2025 and 29 January 2025.

You can view all the planning permit application documents on the Ministerial Permits Register.

SUMMARY BOOKLET

We have prepared an information booklet summarising the planning permit application and technical reports.

The planning permit application is a robust and comprehensive process that incorporates a diverse range of analysis and input from technical and scientific experts.

The summary booklet provides a high-level overview of key parts of the planning permit application. It includes an overview of the project, a summary of the key specialist studies undertaken to inform the application and an overview of additional activities and processes undertaken as part of the project’s development.

webinars

During the initial notice period, we hosted two online webinars on 2 and 3 December 2024 with the experts who prepared the specialist reports for the planning application. The specialists presented a summary of their findings as well as answered questions from attendees.
