COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS TO COUNCIL

1    MCU19/0119.02 OTHER CHANGE TO A DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL FOR A MATERIAL
     CHANGE OF USE FOR MULTIPLE HOUSING - TYPE 2 DUPLEX AND SHORT-TERM
     ACCOMMODATION AND OPERATIONAL WORKS (DRAINAGE WORK, STORMWATER,
     EARTHWORKS, LANDSCAPING, CARPARKING & ACCESS) 2 NOLA STREET,
     NOOSAVILLE
     That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the Planning & Environment
     Committee Meeting dated 6 July 2021 regarding Application No. MCU19/0119.02 &
     OPW19/0216.02 for an Other Change to a Development Approval for a Material Change of
     Use for Multiple Housing - Type 2 Duplex and Short-term accommodation and Operational
     Works (Drainage work, Stormwater, Earthworks, Landscaping, Carparking & Access) situated
     at 2 Nola Street, Noosaville and
     A.      Request staff to prepare a further report for the Ordinary Meeting dated 15 July 2021
             including conditions for approval of the application.
     B.      Write to the Minister, State Development, Infrastructure, Local Government and
             Planning to request his agreement to make a Temporary Local Planning Instrument to
             make short-term accommodation an inconsistent use in the Medium Density
             Residential and High Density Residential zones, on the basis that further short-term
             accommodation is depleting housing supply for permanent residents and this poses a
             significant risk of serious adverse economic and social conditions in Noosa Shire, and
             the delay involved in amending the planning scheme would increase this risk.
     C.      Note that Council at its Ordinary Meeting of 18 March 2021 resolved to “update the
             Noosa Council Housing Needs Assessment prepared by Briggs & Mortar Pty Ltd in
             2017 with regard to the provisions of Noosa Plan 2020 and the local housing situation
             and trends” and that this review shall address the supply of housing for permanent
             residents, and the impact short term accommodation has on this supply; and inform the
             assessment of future development applications for short term accommodation.
     A.    Refuse the application for the following reasons:
           1.    The proposal is not consistent with 3.2.4 Housing to meet diverse needs of the
                 community and 3.3.3 Housing Choice (n) of the Strategic Framework, as it will
                 further erode the permanent housing in the area, impacting permanent resident
                 amenity.

                                                                                  Page 10 of 47
