Planning Report - 11 Senegal Rise Doonan

5.0     CONCLUSION
        The proposed dwelling house at 11 Senegal Rise, Doonan meets the relevant acceptable
        outcomes for the Low density housing code and satisfies the acceptable outcomes and a
        performance outcome for the Rural residential code and the Biodiversity, waterways and
        wetlands overlay code in the Noosa Plan 2020. The proposed development will result in the
        clearing of mapped vegetation to accommodate the residence (given the absence of any
        substantial clearing area beyond the nominated property setbacks) and seeks to encroach into
        the 10m setbacks to minimise vegetation clearing requirements and result in the residence
        being located on the flattest land area.

        The works do not require referral to SARA as they will occur under exemptions nominated in the
        Planning Regulation 2017. The loss of a small number of trees within and immediately adjacent
        to the impact area is considered to be minor in comparison to the overall area of vegetation
        available on the property and will be necessary for the construction of any residence on the site
        (as anticipated by the rural residential zoning of the land under the planning scheme). A weed
        management program is to be implemented on the property to remove lantana and other
        environmental weeds in response to the clearing. In this regard, the proposed dwelling house
        is consistent with the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020.
