SUPERSEDED - Minor Change Report 51983 3225 19 · 51983.3225.19

                          St or Noosa Drive alignments – two
                          storeys; and balance area of the site
                          – four storeys

               The proposal complies with the acceptable outcome AO9.1(a)(iv)(B) and as such, the proposal is
               deemed to comply with the relevant corresponding performance outcome PO9 as per the
               following extract from the scheme:
                      Acceptable outcomes are provided for some, but not all, performance outcomes, and
                      identify ways in which performance outcomes can be met. Compliance with the
                      performance outcome should be demonstrated and the acceptable outcomes are
                      considered as one way to satisfy the corresponding performance outcome.
               The Noosa Plan 2020 User guide also reinforces this position by noting that the planning scheme
               is a performance-based planning scheme and includes the following commentary to this effect:
                      The Planning Scheme is a performance-based scheme, which means assessable
                      development is required to demonstrate how it can achieve the specified performance
                      outcomes. The performance outcomes are considered to be the qualitative outcome that
                      must be achieved whilst the acceptable outcomes are prescriptive, measurable criteria for
                      development and represent the preferred way of achieving the performance outcomes.
                      Assessable development is deemed to comply with the performance outcome if:
                      •       the acceptable outcomes to the performance outcomes are complied with, or
                      •       sufficient information is provided to demonstrate the criterion has been met through
                              an alternative solution.
               It is noted that the proposal is approximately 4m higher than a majority of the existing dwellings
               on the subject site, however The Hastings is currently undergoing piecemeal redevelopment.
               With each lot individually owned, Council has received a number of change applications to
               redevelop individual lots on site, with dwellings proposed up to 15m in height.
               Additionally, the below image shows the existing approximate 11m high dwelling and adjacent
               Laguna on Hastings development, indicating that the proposed building height is consistent with
               development in proximity (refer to Figure 17). A condition is included in the recommendation
               requiring that the roof terrace remains unenclosed.
               It is noted that the proposal plans include a flue over the 15m height limit. The definition of
               building height under Noosa Plan 2020 excludes ‘a point that is part of an aerial, chimney,
               flagpole or load-bearing antenna’ and as such is not assessable.
