7.    Conclusions

The proposed Development Permit for a Material Change of Use for a Dual occupancy on land at
55 Doonella Street, Tewantin has been assessed against the requirements of the Local and State
Statutory Planning Requirements.

This report demonstrates that the proposed development is permitted pursuant to the provisions of
the Planning Act 2016 and the Noosa Plan 2020, and the proposed development can be supported
on a number of grounds, including:

• The development application has been made in accordance with the requirements of both the
     Planning Act 2016 and the Development Assessment Rules 2017;

• The proposal complies with key development parameters of Site cover, Plot ratio and
     landscaping.

• In addition to these parameters, the proposal is consistent with the following relevant Outcomes:

               o   PO1, PO8, PO9, PO12, PO14, PO19 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code; and

               o   AO7.2, AO7.3, PO7 of the Tewantin Local Plan Code.

• Is a modern light weight building design which reflects traditional built form elements;

• Appears to float and is reminiscent of the boat houses of old Tewantin

• Will not overshadow or create overlooking opportunities of neighbouring properties.

• A modern sustainable design which complements the surrounding vernacular;

• Treats stormwater prior to entering lake Doonella

On the basis of the information contained within the above Planning Report, it is recommended that
Noosa Council favourably consider approval of the proposed Material Change of use, subject to
reasonable and relevant conditions. We look forward to Council processing the application at its
earliest convenience.
