Data Lineage
Lineage statement, a general explanation
The boundaries of the proposed coastal management districts have been aligned to property boundaries where practicable, and includes : Queensland tidal water. areas within an erosion prone area. areas where coastal building lines have been declared. generally the balance of lots where any of the above is on the lot (to align with property boundaries). The following are generally excluded from the coastal management district: freehold land with an area of less than 2000 square meters, except where the land is considered to have a very high vulnerability to sea erosion. However, small freehold lots in developed urban areas have generally been excluded. lots which are landward of substantial constructed assets such as roads or houses which could reasonably be expected to be protected from erosion. lots landward of certain approved coastal protection structures such as boulder walls. lots (except leasehold land) which have substantial development on the site and further intensification is unlikely or there is no coastal management benefit from including the lot. where inundation by sea level rise is the only threat, the coastal management district will only extend to the first landward freehold lot back from the coast. where inundation by sea level rise is the only threat, the coastal management district will only extend to the first or second landward freehold lot back from the coast. lots landward of canals.
