   3. Provide a revised fencing plan, including details of sound attenuation
      measures to mitigate impacts i.e., acoustic fencing, battening of air
      conditioning units, fence heights, materials etc.


Further detailed images are provided outlining the fencing details within the key locations
around the pool, entrances and adjoining the neighbours, as shown in the images below
with the model and landscape plan for reference**.
(**note – all building and landscaping elements are not shown to display finished
levels and fence heights)

reduced to 1.5m and the retaining wall replaces an existing wall in this area).

in red is existing on the neighbours property).
                                                                     Page 3 of

   4. Relocate the refuse area central to the site and provide greater detail of the
      proposed treatments of the waste area to ensure impacts are appropriately
      mitigated.


The refuse areas have been relocated to the centre of the site and accessible to residents
and the waste contractor, yet also far enough away from the main road frontages.




                                                                             Page 4 of
                                                                             11

   5. Provide revised plans removing the private gateways/accesses to the
      footpath.


Accesses to Eumundi Noosa Rd have been consolidated to ensure large landscaped
areas to the frontage. It is good planning principles to allow for access to the street for an
active street that residents engage with. If units 701-4 and 101-2 required walkability to
the library and leisure centre they would rather be encouraged by ‘poor design’ to go
through the site and past their car… The proposal encourages an active walkable street
front that engages with the street, while providing for a well landscape frontage in
accordance with the zone and local plan requirements.




   6. Provide revised plans with the recreational areas achieving a setback
      compliance with AO21.1 of the Zone Code.
The proposed pool is setback 2.5m from the adjoining property and is setback behind
extensive landscaping and an acoustic fencing.
The relevant Performance Outcome PO21 seeks for new development:
       provides a high level of residential amenity to users of the subject site; and does
       not unreasonably impact on the amenity enjoyed by users of adjoining or nearby
       premises, including privacy and access to sunlight.
                                                                                 Page 5 of
                                                                                 11

Page 6

The design meets the relevant performance outcomes with the relatively small pool and
associated pool terrace located next to the Distributor Road of Eumundi Noosa Rd.
Substantial landscaping along the southern edge of the pool. Furthermore, the applicant
volunteers for Council to also condition the hours of operation from 8am to 5pm and use
of the pool (such as no drinks and or gatherings around the pool) to ensure the privacy of
adjoining neighbours.
As a codes assessable application, the relevant impacts associated with the pool can be
controlled through the community management statement and conditions of approval and
should not preclude the development of the pool in this location.




   7. Provide revised plans that include a glazing and screening treatment to the
      terrace to obscure views into the adjoining premises.


All glazing and screening treatment plans have been updated.



                                                                             Page 6 of
                                                                             11

   8. Provide a fencing plan, including details the various treatments within the
      abovementioned areas to mitigate headlight nuisance to the adjoining
      properties.


A 2d fencing plan is included as well as the accompanying plans of the fences within the
3d model adjoining neighbours.




                                                                            Page 7 of
                                                                            11

9. Provide revised landscape plans that incorporate an increased garden bed
   width in line with the other garden beds along this boundary (approximately
   1.2 metres wide) to allow for meaningful landscape screening to
   neighbouring properties.




10. Provide revised landscape plans that incorporate an increased garden bed
    width to allow for landscape screening with small tree and shrub species.




11. Provide revised landscape plans that utilise the turfed areas within the road
    reserve to provide a fully landscaped verge, utilising a mix of native trees,
    shrubs, ground covers and grasses to assist in softening the built form of
    the development when viewed from Eumundi Noosa Road and Headland
    Drive.




                                                                     Page 8 of
                                                                     11

Page 9

12. Provide updated landscape plans that include tall growing tree and shrub
    species to the guest parking bay next to buildings 4 and 5, as well as the
    existing landscape areas next to buildings 2 and 6, to soften and scale the
    built form.




                                                                   Page 9 of

   13. Provide revised landscape plans that incorporate hero trees within the
       backyard of Unit 708 and 103 to soften the entrance to the development and
       create a boulevard effect to the entrance driveway.




   14. Provide revised landscape plans that substitute the following:
          a. Callistemon pachyphylus for Callistemon viminalis ‘slim’
          b. Tristaniopsis laurina for Tristaniopsis laurina ‘Luscious’




All updated landscaping items has been incorporated into the revised plans by Element
Landscape Design.
