               2.     BACKGROUND
               The subject site is part of Noosa Springs development which was previously subject to a rezoning
               application which saw introduction of Plan of Development No.39. Under the Plan of Development
               approved for the site, the subject site was included within Precinct C2. The following table details
               the plan of development requirements for dwelling houses in Precinct C:-

                                                                   Plan of Development Criteria

                Building Height                   2 storeys and 8 metres

                Special Condition for             All buildings in Precinct C2 shall be a minimum 3 metres clear
                Buildings in Precinct C2          of the escarpment to the south.




                                                 Figure 4 – Plan of Development No.39

               Precinct C2 was subject to a further application to create the existing residential lots.
               The subject site is described as Lot 57 (and does not adjoin the escarpment) and therefore this
               condition is not applicable to the proposed alterations and additions to the dwelling.
               On 24 March 2025, Council issued a Minor Change to Development Permit for a Material Change
               of Use - Dwelling House in Special Facilities Zone for alterations and additions to construct a
               proposed patio roof. Amendments to the plans which were received after the approval was issued
               necessitated the need for a Generally in Accordance request.

                                                                                                           Page 3 of 4

               3.     ASSESSMENT
               3.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
               Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
               statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
               •      State Planning Policy;
               •      South East Queensland Regional Plan;
               •      Planning Regulation 2017; and
               •      Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020).
               The proposed extension for the unenclosed structure complies with the majority of superseded
               planning scheme requirements for the site including setbacks (Noosa Springs Drive is not a Council
               owned road and forms part of the body corporate) and height complies. The maximum site cover
               of 35% required will not be achieved as the previous site cover approved was for 262.5m2 or
               35.8%. Additional site cover will be approximately 11.76m2 or an additional 0.15%, bringing the
               total (approved) site cover from 268.5m2 to 280.26m2 or 37.4%.
               The proposed extension also complies with the Low Density Residential Zone Code and Low
               Density Housing Code under the Noosa Plan 2020. The proposed roofed structure meets all
               applicable planning scheme code provisions, including the built form and design requirements for
               setbacks, height, length of wall, landscaping and site cover etc.
               The following codes from Noosa Plan 2020 were assessed and are applicable to this development:
               •      Low Density Residential Zone Code;
               •      Low Density Housing Code;
               The development is considered generally in accordance with the development permit.
               4.     CONSULTATION
               Not applicable
               5.     CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The changes are considered minor and are in keeping with the approval and can be considered
               generally in accordance with the approval. The proposed development generally complies with the
               requirements of the planning scheme and does not raise any significant issues that cannot be
               addressed by reasonable and relevant conditions. The generally in accordance request is therefore
               recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
