14.      At the respondent’s planning and organisation committee meeting held on 10

         imposition of conditions.


15.      By correspondence dated 25 November 2015 (received by the appellant on 26

         November 2015) the respondent issued a decision notice and advised that on 19

         November 2015 it had decided to refuse the development application for the following

         reasons:


         (a)       The proposed poultry farm does not comply with the Overall Outcomes of The

                   Noosa Plan’s Mary River Catchment Locality, Agricultural Uses and Transport,

                   Roads and Drainage Codes.


         (b)       The proposed poultry farm does not achieve sufficient separation distance

                   from surrounding residences and properties, so as to avoid adverse odour

                   impacts on amenity.
