2.0 INTRODUCTION

This Development Assessment Report has been prepared to support a Development Application
for Material Change of Use for Visitor Accommodation - Type 3 Rural at 340 Pomona Kin Kin
Road, Pinbarren legally described as Lot 26 on M37911. The application, which is submitted on
behalf of Sarah Keating and Simon Marsh, seeks approval for up to 6 self-contained holiday
cabins that will supplement farming activities on the balance of the site.

In the Noosa Plan the site is located in the Mary River Catchment locality and forms part of the
Rural zone. Although a consistent use in the Rural zone, the proposal is subject to impact
assessment.

The applicants had a pre-lodgement meeting with Council on 3 April 2018. At the meeting,
Council staff confirmed that the proposed use was a consistent use on the site and identified the
key issues that the application would need to address. This application has been prepared to
respond to the issues identified at the pre-lodgement meeting.

The purpose of this report is to describe the characteristics of the site and surrounding land uses,
detail the proposed development and provide an assessment against the applicable planning
provisions.

This report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying covering letter, DA
Development Application forms, Proposal Plans, Site and Soil Evaluation report and Operation
Plan.
