        (d) cause development to which the approval relates to include any prohibited development.

The proposed change is considered to comply with the requirements of the Sustainable Planning Act
as detailed below:

        (a) result in a substantially different development;

           The proposed change does not result in a substantially different development as minimal
           works are proposed and the uses remain the same.


        (b) if the application for the approval were remade including the change—
                           (i) require referral to additional concurrence agencies;
                           or
                          (ii) for an approval for assessable development that previously did not require
                          impact assessment—require impact assessment; or

           No concurrence agencies would be triggered by the proposal and the level of assessment
           has not altered.

        (c) for an approval for assessable development that previously required impact
        assessment—be likely, in the responsible entity’s opinion, to cause a person to make a
        properly made submission objecting to the proposed change, if the circumstances allowed;

           Not applicable.


        (d) cause development to which the approval relates to include any prohibited development.

             Not prohibited development.

The proposal is therefore considered to be able to be considered as permissible change.

The site is included in the Noosa Heads Locality which provides a Business Centre Use zoning over
the property. The proposal has been reviewed against the provisions of the Noosa Plan and is
considered to generally fulfill the provisions of the planning scheme.

the upper level has a higher rate than offices.

floor and use whilst increasing service areas within the building complies with the requirements of the
Noosa Plan . It is considered the changes could be dealt with as Generally in Accordance however as
discussed with Council staff this permissible change is lodged. The applicant seeks Council support for
