               4.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
               Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
               statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
               •        State Planning Policy;
               •        South East Queensland Regional Plan;
               •        Planning Regulation 2017; and
               •        Noosa Plan 2020 (26 September 2025).
               4.2. Noosa Plan 2020
               The following codes from the Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
               •        Low Density Housing Code
               The application has been found to conflict with all applicable statutory instruments. The pertinent
               issues arising out of the assessment are discussed below:
               4.2.1.     Low Density Housing Code
               Acceptable Outcome 14.1 of the code states:
                        Only one driveway and crossover is provided.
               The proposal is for a second driveway crossover to Pitta Street. The proposal does not satisfy the
               Acceptable Outcome and falls to the corresponding Performance Outcome for assessment.
               Performance Outcome 14 of the code states that:
                        Driveways and crossovers are located so they do not impede the safe and efficient use of
                        the road network.
               The performance outcome seeks to ensure that driveways and crossovers do not compromise the
               safety and efficient use of the road network. In this instance, the location of the proposed driveway
               crossover will result in the loss of an existing, line-marked, on-street carpark. Council considers
               that the loss of on street carparking is contrary to the use of Pitta Street as an Urban Local road,
               as defined by Council, pursuant to Table SC6.7.2 of Planning Scheme Policy 6 Engineering Design
               Standards.
