2. MCU20/0143.01 & OPW20/0230.01 – APPLICATION FOR AN OTHER CHANGE TO
DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL FOR DUAL OCCUPANCY AND ASSOCIATED
OPERATIONAL WORKS TO INCLUDE SHORT - TERM ACCOMMODATION AT 6
ANGLER ST, NOOSA HEADS
Council Resolution
Moved: Cr Stockwell
Seconded: Cr Jurisevic
That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee
Meeting dated 17 January 2022 regarding Application No. MCU20/0143.01 &
OPW20/0230.01 for an Other Change to a Development Permit for Dual Occupancy and
Associated Operational Works to include Short-Term Accommodation, situated at 6
Angler St Noosa Heads and:
A. Refuse the application for the following reasons:
1. The proposal is not consistent with 3.2.4 Housing to meet diverse needs of
the community and 3.3.3 Housing Choice (n) of the Strategic Framework, as
it will further erode the dwelling units available for permanent housing in the
area, impacting permanent resident amenity.
2. The proposal is not consistent with 7.2.2.2 Purpose and Overall Outcome
(2)(o), (p) and (u) and Performance Outcome PO2 of the Noosa Heads Local
Plan Code as:
a) The proposal will contribute to the erosion of diversity in housing types
in the area.
b) Additional visitor accommodation in the area is likely to result in
detrimental impacts on the residential neighbourhood and amenity of
permanent residents.
3. The proposal is not consistent with 6.3.2.2 Purpose and Overall Outcomes
(2)(a) and (h) of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code as:
a) The proposal is located in medium density residential neighbourhood
that is predominantly used for short term accommodation. The
introduction of additional short term accommodation within a duplex
unit is not consistent with the zone’s outcome to maintain the area as
predominantly home to permanent residents.
b) The proposal seeks to establish a new short-term visitor
accommodation facility within a recently approved dual occupancy and
is not located within a well-established resort or holiday units.
4. The proposal is not consistent with 9.3.5.2 Purpose and Overall Outcomes
(1) and (2)(f) of the Visitor Accommodation Code as:
a) The proposed visitor accommodation is not appropriately located and
integrated with permanent residents in the area given the number and
density of properties currently being used for visitor accommodation
and/or permitted for use as visitor accommodation.
b) The proposed visitor accommodation is likely to detract from the
amenity enjoyed by residents nearby and in the surrounding area.
