4.1.2 — Carparking

Given the units are operating in accordance with the approval and the 1985 Planning scheme, the
carparking rate should also apply (for the life of the development). Under the 1985 Planning Scheme

the carparking rate for Multiple dwellings is as follows in the Table below —

for the accommodation of boats and trailers where

the Council considers this to be necessary.

(b) If access to the subject land is from a cul-de-sac,
dead end road or split level road less than 250 m in
length or from an arterial road; one additional parking
space per every four accommodation units or dwelling

units or part thereof.

 

 

 

 

As identified above, the car parking of the 1985 Planning Scheme only requires 1 space per dwelling
unit, regardless of the number of bedrooms. The subject units are operated in strictly in accordance

with the definition of Multiple dwelling under the 1985 Planning Scheme.

Given that each dwelling unit requires only 1 car space, and that space has been provided as part
of the original development, no change to the car parking arrangement on site is required. Please
refer to Figures 3 and 4 for the current car parking. The development fully complies with the

approval without any additional car parking required.

Importantly, it would be inconsistent with the development approval for Council to apply the Noosa
Plan 2020 car parking rate to the development if the uses are complying with the conditions of

approval and the planning scheme in force at the time of the original approval.
