L02 To GRC -response to IR

Item 7:             Site Cover & Plot Ratio

Applicant’s Response: The enclosed plans by QUOA Architecture illustrates amendments made to the
proposed gazebos following the discussion with Council on 25th March, 2022. These revised drawings clearly
illustrate the amendments made to the layout, fittings and finishes to the gazebos to those as originally
proposed. These amendments, for example, include:-


Item 8:             Building Setbacks

Applicant’s Response: Those original plans submitted with the development application proposed
complying front and side boundary setbacks as stated in the assessment against applicable benchmarks in
the proposal report. Those proposal plans by QUOA Architecture that are enclosed with this response have
been amended to provide additional dimensions and red balloons highlighting the proposed boundary
setbacks.

The proposed front and side boundary setbacks continue to comply with the preferences in the 2020 Noosa
Plan for a proposed dual occupancy development on the site.


Item 9:             Works near underground infrastructure

Applicant’s Response: The original plans submitted with the development application took into
consideration the surveyed location of the sewer main that obliquely traverses the site. The intention was to
liaise with Unity Water at the development works stages to ensure that the location and design of the
development complied with Unit Water’s requirements.

Following the online meeting with Council on 25th March, 2020 Council has advised by email that ‘Council is
happy to condition a subsequent approval from Unity Water rather than providing it with the IR response.’


Item 10:            Stormwater

Applicant’s Response: The applicant’s consulting engineers, ACROS, have provided the attached letter
dated 4th April, 2022 and signed by Lachlan Swann, RPEQ 21223 on behalf of Arcos Unit Group Pty Ltd
(Arcos Group), to certify that the proposed works as shown on drawings 211099-OPW-C-00301 & 211099-
SMP-C-00301, are not considered to significantly alter the stormwater drainage characteristic external to the
site. This certification includes confirmation that this also refers to no significant worsening of the stormwater
conditions external to the site.


The applicant has now responded to Council’s IR for this code assessable development application and
therefore requests that Council completes its assessment of this development application based on the
common material provided with the original application unless amended by this response to Council’s IR.

Council remains welcome to contact me directly on 0409632830 or by email through
[email protected] if Council requires any further information and/or clarification in relation to
any of the above response.



Yours faithfully,




Greg Martoo
Principal
