This application has been submitted by the certifier for an opening roof. The certifier previously received
advice from the duty planner that a minor change to the DA would be required and that it appeared to
increase from 2 to 3 storeys at that point. The certifier has confirmed that it will not be 3 storeys as the
deck currently sits over an under croft. As such, the building is one storey at this point.
The fees for a minor change are $1,195 for minor extensions to units (i.e. balconies) or $2,273 for minor
matters. The certifier suggests that given the minor scale, they request the Generally in Accordance fee
apply which is agreed to.

MCU20/0002.01        Applicant – RG      Other change to                         $6,062            $2,273

                     Noosaville

An application for a Commercial Business Type 1 Office was approved 30 April 2020 (MCU20/0002).
The applicant is proposing to lodge an Other Change to include a Food & Drink Outlet (coffee shop). The
coffee shop is very small in size using 13m² internal and 13m² external deck area. The applicant advises
that the assessment is minor as there is no external built form change apart from the tables and chairs
placed out for operation. The proposal will not raise parking issues based on the proposed use areas but
consideration will need to be given to hours of operation and potential noise impacts for residents nearby.
It is therefore recommended that the minor change fee of $2,273 is more reflective of the assessment
required than $6,062.

DBW21/0191           Applicant –         DBW for workshop                        $1,195              $220

                     411 Cootharaba
                     Rd Cootharaba

This application is to construct a shed at 411 Cootharaba Rod, Cootharaba. On advice from officers, the
applicant lodged an Exemption Certificate and an application for a siting variation to the required setbacks.
The application for the siting variation was decided by building but the exemption certificate cannot be
supported as it does not meet the Planning Act requirements. Given the incorrect advice provided by
officers and the delay that has been caused by the change of application types, it is considered appropriate
to accept the fee already paid for the exemption certificate ($220) and not charge an additional fee for an
application for building works. It is therefore recommended that the $220 fee be applied to the application
for building works.
