f) use an awning slope of within 15 degrees of adjacent awnings; and
g) are no more than 0.5 metres higher or lower than adjacent awnings that are less than 2 metres away; and

Further information is required demonstrating compliance with the streetscape.

INFORMATION REQUESTED
2. Provide additional plans that clarify:
2.1. The setback of the awning from the kerb
2.2. Conform with the height of the adjoining commercial buildings to the east as detailed in AO30 above.


RESPONSE:
The depth of the awning and setback from the kerb of indent carparking is nominated on the amended proposal
plans as requested. The awning depth has been reduced and a compliant 1m minimum kerb setback will be
provided.
The height of the adjacent building awning to the east is shown on the amended plans (no awning to the west).
The proposed awning height is considered compatible with the nearby awnings along Emerald Street and
appropriately responds to the stepping of the awnings which follows the fall of the streetscape from east to west.
It is important to note that these buildings will be separated by both an existing access easement and the
proposed pedestrian / cycle pathway link. The approximate 5.36m separation distance means the 2 awnings do
not need to match. It is also important to note that the adjacent building does not represent the desired traditional
character built form.




ISSUE - SIGNAGE
Signage is regulated under Noosa Councils Local Laws and should not be detailed on the proposal plans as a separate
application is required.

INFORMATION REQUESTED
3. Remove the reference to ‘signs’ on the proposal plans.


RESPONSE:
