COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATIONS TO COUNCIL

1      MCU19/0089.02 & OPW19/0160.02 – MINOR CHANGE TO DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL
       FOR RETAIL BUSINESS TYPE 5 VEHICLE USES, RETAIL BUSINESS TYPE 2 SHOP AND
       OPERATIONAL WORKS – SIGNAGE AT 52 – 54 MARY
       That Council note the report by the Coordinator Planning to the Planning & Environment
       Committee Meeting dated 8 March 2022 regarding MCU19/0089.02 and OPW19/0160.02 to
       make a minor change to an existing approval for Material Change of Use - Retail Business -
       Type 2 Shop & Salon, Retail Business - Type 5 Vehicle Uses and Operational Works – Signage
       situated at 52-54 Mary St Noosaville and:
       A.   Refuse the change for the following reasons:
            1.    The proposed change does not constitute a minor change to the development
                  approval as the change in hours will increase the severity of known amenity
                  impacts and likely attract further submissions objecting to the change were the
                  application to be publicly notified given the site’s proximity to residential properties.
            2.    The proposed trading hours do not comply with Overall Outcomes 2 (d) & (h) and
                  Performance Outcome PO11 & PO24 of the Business Activities Code as the
                  proposed hours will adversely impact on nearby resident’s amenity.
            3.    The proposed trading hours do not comply with Overall Outcome 2(m) and
                  Performance Outcome PO42 of the District Centre Zone Code as the proposed
                  change in hours will impact the amenity of nearby residential premises as nearby
                  residents would not reasonably expect the service to be operational at this time.
            4.    The proposed illuminated signage does not comply with Specific Outcome AO7
                  and Overall Outcome O7 of the Advertising Devices Code within the Noosa Plan
                  2006 as it proposes more than one illuminated sign and is not compatible with the
                  visual amenity of the surrounding area.
            5.    The proposed additional illuminated signage is not consistent with provisions of the
                  Local Law signage requirements as the proposal exceeds the maximum number
                  of signs permitted to be illuminated and is prohibited by the Local Law.
       B.   Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
