       PO7
       Development provides for a lot layout and configuration of roads and pathways that is
       responsive to:-

          a)      the setting of the site within an urban or non-urban context;
          b)      any natural environmental values present on, or adjoining the site;
          c)      any natural hazards affecting the site or adjoining land such that the number of
                  properties or persons at risk is not increased;
          d)      the terrain of the land, minimising the need for earthworks;
          e)      any places of cultural heritage significance or character areas present on, or adjoining
                  the site; and
          f)      any important landmarks, views, vistas or other areas of high scenic quality present
                  on, or able to be viewed from, the site.

this proposed lot is consistent with the surrounding development in the area which includes lots with
areas of 600m2 opposite the site.

CRESCENT, SUNSHINE BEACH

| refer to the above application and the information request issued by your Council and dated 26th
November 2020. This request listed 12 items that Council considers is necessary in order to complete

its assessment of the above application.

The applicant provides the following response:

Item 1: A response to the requirements of the Reconfiguring a Lot Code with regards to Performance
Outcome PO7. It should be noted that Council officers are not supportive of the creation of a new lot

which has a slope of approximately 25%.

Applicant’s Response to Item 1: PO7 of the Reconfiguration of a Lot Code states the following:

PO7

Development provides for a lot layout and configuration of roads and pathways that is

responsive to:-

a) the setting of the site within an urban or non-urban context;

b) any natural environmental values present on, or adjoining the site;

Cc) any natural hazards affecting the site or adjoining land such that the number of
properties or persons at risk is not increased;

d) the terrain of the land, minimising the need for earthworks;

e) any places of cultural heritage significance or character areas present on, or adjoining
the site; and

f) any important landmarks, views, vistas or other areas of high scenic quality present
on, or able to be viewed from, the site.

The proposed subdivision creates one lot to the south of the existing dwelling. The size and shape of
this proposed lot is consistent with the surrounding development in the area which includes lots with
areas of 600m2 opposite the site.

Item 2: Demonstrate how the proposed reconfiguration complies with the relevant provisions within
the Noosa Plan which seek to protect the ecological values and ecological character of the site and
area.

Applicant’s Response to Item 2: No specific provisions have been detailed and therefore it is difficult
to provide an appropriate response to the item. The site is not mapped as containing any significant
vegetation (Biodiversity, Waterways and Wetlands Overlay).


Item 3: Provide a response which demonstrates how the creation of a new lot within an erosion prone
area, which will be subject to vegetation removal and future development, accords with the requirements
of the Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity Overlay Code and the Reconfiguring a Lot Code

Development within the Coastal
Protection and Scenic Amenity Area
is—

a) designed to protect character and
scenic amenity and integrate with
the surrounding natural landscape
and skyline vegetation (see Figure
AP3-3A); and

6) finished predominately in colours
and hues of the surrounding
natural landscape.

AOS

A mix of native landscaping, such as
ground covers, shrubs and trees, is
provided for a width of 5 metres from
the seaward or rear boundary of

the site to provide adequate landscape
buffering to protect the coastal dune
system.

Editor's Note—Refer to the Table 3.1
& 3.2 of PSP2 Landscaping for suitable
coastal species.

Editor's Note The following is a useful
guide for ensuring that buildings blend
with the natural surrounds.

External building materials that are
lightweight and comprise
predominantly timber or board,
stainless steel, glass, and corrugated
iron will generally be more in keeping
with the beach/riverside character than
concrete rendered block.

Use external colours and roof finishes
which are non-reflective and which do
not cause glare. Shades that match the
colours and tones of

surrounding vegetation will ensure the
buildings are less visually prominent
from the beach or the water.

Appropriate wall colours will depend on
the existing native vegetation and
backdrop, but may include muted
earth/environmental tones that blend
with the natural environment, such as—

green;

olive green;
blue green;
grey green;
green blue;
indigo;

brown;

blue grey; and
green yellow.

As detailed above the lot has sufficient
dimensions to provide an appropriate
house site and landscaping to
boundaries.

 

PO6

Rear fences adjacent to the beachfront
within the Coastal Protection Area are
designed and sited to be sympathetic
with the visual amenity of the beachfront
and do not degrade the natural
beachfront character.

 

AO6.1

Rear fences adjacent to the beachfront
within the Coastal Protection Area
incorporate the following—

a) height of no more than 1.2
metres; and

b) open construction (ie at least
50% transparent);

c) _ lightweight materials (eg.
timber); and

d) dark colours to blend with the
natural landscape.

AO6.2
Gates are not installed in fences as
direct access to the beachfront does not
occur.

AO6.3
Only beach access points for use by the
community are constructed.

PO19

Land provided for active recreation areas is
of a physical standard and condition
suitable for the intended uses and is not
subject to physical or other constraints
including contamination, environmental or
biophysical constraints or _ legislative
protection that would encumber its use.

AO19.1
Active parkland is of a usable shape free
of irregular boundaries.

A019.2
Active parkland is located on land that is
exclusive of—

a) _ flood inundation below the
20% AEP (1:5 year ARI level);

b) _ land affected by stormwater or
overland flow discharge from
adjacent allotments;

c) drainage reserves and detention
basins, which cannot be shown to
safely and effectively contribute to
the network of parks and open
space areas;

d) land with a slope, or subject to cut or
fill with a batter slope, that exceeds
a slope of 15%;

e) areas of land less than 15 metres
wide, such as access and service
and utility easements;

f) land required to serve primarily as a
buffer area to any existing
development or major transport
corridor; and

g) power easements.

A019.3

At least 10% of the total open space
provision for active parkland is exclusive of
flood inundation below the 1% AEP (1:100

must include recommendations for the future development of the site and include comment on the
suitability of on-site infiltration of stormwater

Applicant’s Response to Item 5: The applicant considers that these matters can be addressed as
part of any future operational works application and would not be a determining factor in the assessment
of the application.


Item 6: Provide a preliminary design for stormwater management for a concept for future residential
development on proposed Lot 2. The design must include indicative locations and volumes of the
required on-site infiltration system.

Applicant’s Response to Item 6: Refer item 5 above.


Item 7: The geotechnical report and the stormwater management plan must be consistent in their
recommendations

Applicant’s Response to Item 7: Refer item 5 above.


Item 8: Provide a plan of the location of the existing services for proposed Lot 1 (sewer, water, electrical,
telecommunications and stormwater)

Applicant’s Response to Item 8: The applicant indicates that the site is connected or able to be
connected to existing services in the area.


Item 9: Provide preliminary advice from Unitywater in regard to the sewer system (connection, private
