PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                       6 JULY 2021


    1.   The proposed development is not consistent with the SEQ Regional Plan and would
         result in a high-density residential development within an area which contains
         ecological values and is not included within the planning scheme's urban growth
         boundaries.
    2.   The proposed development is contrary to State Planning Policy as it would irreversibly
         impact on good agricultural land.
    Noosa Plan 2006
    Strategic Framework
    3.   The proposed development is not consistent with Desired Environmental Outcome
         3.1.3 (a) as it would result in the fragmentation of agricultural land and would not
         conserve land for agricultural purposes.
    4.   The proposed development is not consistent with Desired Environmental Outcome
         3.1.3 (h) as it would result in the loss of land intended to accommodate recreational
         activities for the community.
    5.   The proposed development is not consistent with Desired Environmental Outcome
         3.1.3 (j) as it would result in residential uses outside of the urban growth boundary and
         is inconsistent with the character and amenity of the locality where conservation and
         agricultural type land uses are expected.

    6.   The proposed development is not consistent with Overall Outcomes 6.7.2 a) (i) and
         (iv), c), d), r), s), y), cc), gg), rr) and ss) and Specific Outcomes O1, O3, O7, O8, O9,
         O10, O15, O18, O19, O20, O25, O27, O81, O82 and O88 as it would:
         i.      result in high density residential development outside of the Urban Growth
                 Boundary which is not consistent with the Priority Infrastructure Plan;
         ii.      utilise Rural zoned land for the purpose of Multiple Housing which is an
                 inconsistent use in the zone with the land intended to be maintained for its rural
                 character and use for agricultural activities;
         iii.     utilise Open Space Recreation zoned land for the purpose of Multiple Housing
                 which is an inconsistent use in the zone with the land intended to be used for
                 recreational purposes;
         iv.      utilise rural land intended to be protected and managed to preserve the scenic
                 and environmental values of the area;
         v.      not preserve agricultural land, conserve open space for biodiversity and water
                 quality purposes or provide development at a density consistent with the site's
                 environmental constraints and proximity to the Lake Macdonald water supply
                 catchment;
         vi.     result in a design that does not minimise cut and fill;.
         vii.    result in adverse impacts on the site's environmental values;
         viii.   potentially impact upon the water quality of Lake Macdonald;
         ix.     result in a detrimental impact on the scenic vista from the major road network
                 and the entry into Cooroy township;
         x.      result in a built form that does not complement traditional streetscape and
                 building forms, including a club house with a height that will dominate surrounding
                 spaces and the existing skyline;
         xi.     result in parts of the development being located too close to Myall Street and
                 would not be consistent with the streetscape;
