Minor Change Report MCU17 0024 03 (As Published) · MCU17/0024.03

                                             Theapproach used the OLGR’s standardised method (LA10 and
                                       LOCT10‑based measurements) to determine “unreasonable noise,”
                                       reflecting real, verifiable acoustic testing carried out on the completed
                                       building.


                                       Council supported the amendment, noting that the OLGR‑aligned
                                       conditions provided a more accurate and appropriate noise management
                                       framework for the operating venue while maintaining residential amenity.
                                       A temporary trial of the new limits was approved for 12 months,
                                       commencing 22 May 2020, with a condition enabling the applicant to
                                       extend the limits after this time..
                                       subject to consideration of any potential complaints (see below Existing
                                       Condition 8).
               17 December 2024 -      MCU17/0024.02 - Council approved a minor change to the existing
                                       development approval to the Lifesaving Club building to install stackable
                                       2.4m high glass doors along the eastern edge of the main floor deck and a
                                       connecting fly over roof between existing roof structures.




               3.     ASSESSMENT
               3.1. 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 (25 September 2025).
               3.2. Statutory Process
               The applicant has requested to make a minor change to a development approval under s78 of the
               Planning Act 2016. An application for a minor change to a development approval can only be made
               in circumstances where a change would constitute a ‘minor change’.
               The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to
               constitute a minor change on the grounds that:
               •    the development would not result in substantially different development as the proposal does
                    not dramatically change the built form or introduce new or increased impacts;
               •    the change does not include prohibited development;
               •    the change would not require the application to be referred to an additional referral agency or
                    cause a referral agency to have regard to new matters prescribed by regulation;
               •    where the original application was code assessable, the change would not cause the
                    application to become impact assessable.
               3.3. Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
               The original application was lodged and assessed under the now superseded (the Noosa Plan
               2006). Pursuant to s81 of the Planning Act 2017, Council must consider the planning scheme in
               effect when the original development application was lodged, however Council may give weight to
               the Noosa Plan 2020 being the planning scheme in effect at the time the minor change application
               was lodged.
               The following codes from Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
                                                                                                      Page 3 of 8
