Yield
As shown below in Table 1, the total number of units has not changed, only the configuration.

Presented at Planning & Environment Meeting                            Proposed
13 x 2 bedroom                                                         15 x 2 bedroom
4 x 3 bedroom                                                          2 x 3 bedroom
17 units                                                               17 units

Table 1 – Development yield
All units remain less than 90m² providing housing diversity for Cooroy in accordance with
Council’s Housing Needs Assessment (Briggs and Mortar March 2017) undertaken for the new
Noosa Plan.
Setbacks
The setbacks to Kauri Street are the same as previously proposed to Olivine Street and raise no
concern as the development is low rise, with the only encroachment for veranda posts and good
opportunities for landscaping.
Built form
Variation has been provided to break up the roof form seen from Kauri Street and an increase to
the roof pitch from 10 degrees to 12 degrees to complement the Cooroy character. The applicant
has provided articulation to the units of concern and the proposal plans are now considered to
address all outstanding built form matters raised by officers previously.
