     Council Resolution
     Moved:           Cr Stockwell
     Seconded:        Cr Wilkie
     That Council note the report by the Assistant Development Planner to the Planning &
     Environment Committee Meeting dated 10 October 2017 regarding Application No.
     MCU17/0049 for a Development Permit for (Home Based Business Type 3 - Swim School),
     situated at 8 McKenna Ct Noosaville and:
     A.   Refuse the application for the following reasons:
          1.     The application is contrary to The Noosa Plan and Home-based Business Code
                 as the proposed use will adversely impact on the amenity of surrounding
                 residents due to noise generated by the business and unsatisfactory provision of
                 on-site car parking.
          2.     The applicant has not satisfactorily demonstrated that noise generated by the
                 business activities will be satisfactorily mitigated for surrounding residents.
          3.     The scale and nature of the business is not appropriate or relative to the
                 residential property and is likely to dominate and conflict with the surrounding
                 area given the number of classes and operating hours proposed.
          4.     A number of properly made submissions were received from surrounding
                 residents raising valid objections to the proposed business.
     B.   Advise the applicant that the business is currently operating in breach of the Noosa
          Plan and the Planning Act 2016 and must cease operating by the 16 November 2017.
                                                                                          Carried.
