Good Afternoon,

As discussed briefly with Michael Cantori this morning, we have been asked by Soul
Space Building Design, who in turn are acting for Cammeray Investments Pty Ltd.
Michael suggested that as well as including him in the email regarding the intention to
lodge an application to address the issues raised in the Show Cause Notice issued, we
submit an enquiry regarding a change to the existing development approval.

Attached to this email is a set of plans reflecting a proposed development for the site.

This proposal is intended to be lodged with Noosa Council to initially address the matters
raised in Show Cause Notice Parts 3 & 4.

The query we have at this point is whether a Minor Change Application would suffice to
“handle” the proposed changes to MCU 14/0053.

In essence, it is intended that the development proposed on Soul Space Dwgs DA 101 –
402 replace that shown as approved on Soul Space WD 01- 05 Revision B.

We note the proposed development has an area of 128.9 square metres, compared with
the approved area of 128.55 square metres. This is achieved by a change in the building
design, reflected in retaining the Noosa Drive and southern walls as approved, reducing
the overall east -west depth of the building and building to the boundary along the
northern boundary.

A quick review of the Planning Scheme and setback requirements , Schedule 1, does not
show any specific side setbacks in the zone and location of the proposed development?

I assume that given the area of the new proposal equals that of the existing approval,
the basis of the existing approval which included an Infrastructure Agreement relating to
the payment of a contribution in lieu of off -street parking can be maintained.

Looking at the current proposal, it would appear to satisfy the tests required for a Minor
Change as set out in Schedule 2 of the Planning Act and the substantially different
development test as set out in Schedule 1 of the DA Rules.

If you need any further information to assist in providing an answer to the query raised,
please do not hesitate to contact me.
