          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.
                                                                                      Page 4 of 8
