9 Conclusion
Urbis Ltd has prepared this town planning report in support of a Change Application (‘Other Change’) to
amend the existing development approval MCU25/0053 and OPW25/0074 over the site at 7 Noosa Parade,
Noosa Heads (‘the site’).

This application seeks an ‘Other Change’ to the approval, in accordance with Sections 78 and 82 of the
Planning Act 2016.

The following points are highlighted in support of the proposed development:

▪     The proposed change is focused on internal layout refinements, basement functionality and minor
      floor plan improvements, while retaining the approved residential use and overall built form.

▪     The proposed change to the existing development approval is subject to Impact Assessment due to
      changes to the assessment framework introduced by Amendments No. 2 and No. 3 to Noosa Plan
      2020.

▪     The proposed basement spaces are ancillary recreational and wellness areas, are not intended for
      sleeping accommodation, and can be conditioned accordingly if required.

▪     The approved flood mitigation strategy, dewatering plan, pump systems, backup power supply and
      automatic basement flood barrier are retained and continue to manage risk to people and property.

This assessment demonstrates that the proposal remains consistent with the intent and key outcomes of the
existing development approval. The changes are limited, improve the functionality and adaptability of the
dwelling, maintain compliance with the relevant built form benchmarks, and appropriately manage flood
hazard considerations. For these reasons, the Change Application is supportable and should be approved
subject to reasonable and relevant conditions.
