Planning Scheme:                   Noosa Plan 2020
Our Reference:                     101228
On Behalf Of:                      GRV Developments Qld Pty Ltd


On behalf of GRV Developments Qld Pty Ltd, please find attached our Application for a Development
Permit for a Material Change of Use to Establish a Dwelling House Building Envelope, involving land
described as Lot 1 on SP100785, situated at 224 Top Forestry Road, Ridgewood QLD 4563.

In support of this application, please find attached:

       Completed DA Form 1 and Landowner’s Consent Form;
       A recent Current Titles Search, Survey Plan & SmartMap (Appendix A & B); and
       A Plan of Development prepared by Murray & Associates (QLD) Pty Ltd (Appendix C).

Please note that Council’s Assessment Fee will be paid directly to Council by the applicant following
receipt of Council’s tax invoice and reference number.

The proposed dwelling requires a Code Assessable Material Change of Use Application due to being
within 200m of an adjacent property in accordance with AO2.4 of the Rural Zone Code, as such the
following assessment is provided:

Table 1 - AO2.4 Assessment
 AO2.4 and AO8.5 of the Rural Zone Code
 AO2.4 - No sensitive land use is established closer than 200 metres from land on an adjacent property included
 in the Rural zone and mapped as Agricultural Land Conservation Area as shown in Agricultural Land Overlap
 Maps in schedule 2.

 AO8.5 On properties over 2 hectares in area, a distance of not less than 200 metres is provided between
 a sensitive land use and land on an adjacent rural zone property over 4 hectares in mapped Agricultural Land
 Conservation Area.
 Comment
 The subject site currently has an established house pad. Given the relatively small rural fragmented nature of
 the property it is impossible to comply with the 200m separation AO. As such, we are seeking an MCU for a
 dwelling house building envelope over the detail survey bench marked area (see Appendix C for details). The

 building envelope area is in the most practical location, is adequately separated from side and rear boundaries
 (i.e. adjoining rural properties), is free of any environmental constraints (i.e. vegetation and bushfire) and is
 an established accessible area on the property. As such, the proposed building envelope satisfies PO2 & PO8
 on the following grounds:
       •   The building envelope does not result in the loss or diminished productive capacity of Agricultural
           Land Conservation Area;
       •   The building envelope area does not result in environmental harm or nuisance;
       •   The building envelope area does not impact on ecologically important areas; and
       •   The building envelope area avoids conflict with rural uses and activities on adjoining properties.

We look forward to receiving Council’s favourable decision for this application in due course.

Yours faithfully,
