Background of Site
The subject site, legally described as Lot 2 RP173876 was granted a development permit (MCU16/0084 &
OPW16/0157) on the 17th November 2016 for Retail Business Type 5 - Vehicle uses, Retail Business Type 2
- Shop & Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 1 - Food & Beverages at 140-142 Eumundi Noosa Road
Noosaville.

A Generally in Accordance Request was made on 8th March 2017 and approved (MCU16/0084.01) for
minor alterations to the roof design (slope) of the main building.

A Permissible Change to the development approval was made on 27th April 2017 and approved
(MCU16/0084.02) to eradicate inconsistencies within the decision notice in which prevented approval of
the operational works.

A minor change to the development approval was made on 28th August 2017 to delete condition 62
within the Decision Notice. The change was approved on 24th October 2017, being application number
MCU16/0084.03



Summary of Proposal
The purpose of this application is to make a minor change to the existing development approval
(MCU16/0084.03). The minor change proposes a material increase of 17.13m2 GFA to the current floor
area approved for Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 1 - Food & Beverages, trading as Ricks Bakery.
The extension is proposed at the rear of the current tenancy for additional back of house preparation area
for the bakery. No further changes to the current layout are proposed as a result of this extension.

The proposal is not considered to drastically alter the current approved built form, as the extensions will
occupy a void at the back of the building which is currently roofed, and adjacent to rear entry stairs from
the ground floor staff parking area. Additional car parking is not required to satisfy the proposal given the
area is additional kitchen and food storage area, as per Table 14.114 Minimum Vehicle Parking
Requirements – Column 2 (Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 1 - Food & Beverages)

Minor Change Assessment

The Planning Act 2016 defines a minor change as a change to the approval that;

(i)     would not result in substantially different development;

In determining whether the proposed change would result in substantially different development, the
assessment manager or referral agency must consider the individual circumstances of the development, in
the context of the change proposed.

A change may be considered to result in a substantially different development if the proposed change:

 involves a new use; or                               The proposed change does not include a new use.

                                                      required for the minor change.



The above assessment demonstrates that the proposed change to the existing approval fits the test of a
minor change in accordance with Schedule 2 of the Planning Act 2016 and Schedule 1 of the Development
Assessment Rules.

Conclusion
In conclusion we believe the proposed change to the development approval at 140-142 Eumundi Noosa
Road Noosaville results in a consistent use of the site in accordance with current approval MCU16/0084.03.

The subsequent minor change to the existing approved building is considered to provide comparable built
form, efficient use of the subject site and maintains the operations that exist at the property.
