4.1 Request: Additional Condition
Additional Condition – [Insert Date of Council Decision]
Development must be carried out generally in accordance with the approved plans listed below,
unless otherwise amended by a condition of this approval.

 Plan No.                 Rev.        Plan/Document Name                    Date

 233                      01          Landscape       Concept,     Front May 24

Justification: This condition is necessary to ensure the retrospective structures — the spa vergola
and first-floor balcony awning — are clearly recognised as part of the approved development. The
proposed works are minor in scale, do not affect the overall development intent, and have been
assessed against the relevant provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020, including those related to built
form, setbacks, and amenity.”
Assessment of Request
Agree in Part
The applicant requests to include an additional condition relating to the list of approved plans to
allow retrospective approval of a spa vergola within the front boundary setback and an additional
deck extension and associated awning within 6.6m of the front boundary.
The deck extension and associated awning adds an additional 11.8m2 of site cover resulting in a
total site cover of 42.05% at the ground level and 29.16% at the upper level. The addition is setback
from the front boundary, compliments the existing material and colour palette presenting uniformly
to the street and avoids presenting an appearance of bulk to neighbouring properties. Although the
additional site cover exceeds the accepted requirements, the proposed awning remains visually
unobtrusive and provides a high level of amenity for residents.
The spa vergola however has been constructed within the front boundary setback and presents an
appearance of bulk to the street and neighbouring properties. The vergola conflicts with the
predominant character of Noosa Parade where multiple dwellings, dwelling houses and associated
structures present compliant setbacks with the exception of gatehouses. The vergola impedes on
the provision of light to neighbouring properties and is not compatible with surrounding
development. The addition of the vergola results in a total site cover of 44.02% at the ground level
which is well in excess of the requirements and anticipated character of development within Noosa
Parade.
