               Dear Sir/Madam,
                                                         Decision Notice
                                                          Planning Act 2016

               I refer to your application and advise that on 25 July 2025, Council decided to refuse the
               application.
               Details of the decision are as follows:
               1.     APPLICATION DETAILS

                Application No:                 DBW25/0028

                Street address:                 32 Park Crescent, Sunshine Beach

                Real property description: Lot 595 RP 48112

                Planning Scheme:                Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)

               2.     TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT

               The application sought the following type of development approval:
               Building Work Assessable Against the Planning Scheme - Additions to Dwelling House (Coastal
               Protection)
               3.     REASONS FOR REFUSAL

               Council decided to refuse the application for the following reasons:
               1.     The proposal does not comply with Acceptable Outcome AO20.3 and corresponding
                      Performance Outcome PO20 of the Low Density Residential Zone Code as it:
                          a.      Does not provide a split level design which incorporates small floorplates, and does
                                  not avoid excessive building bulk and benching of the site;
                          b.      The proposal is not responsive to the natural topography and dominates the
                                  landscape because it does not appropriately step-down the slope and requires
                                  benching. The built form presents an upright, bulky elevation when viewed from
                                  adjoining properties and coastal dune reserve to the rear.
