Campbell and dated 2602/2013 depicts a 3.6m a 2.6m ‘office’ located on the ground floor of unit 3.
This area is interpreted under the Noosa Plan as a third bedroom and raises the density of the site
above the population density requirements.

      closed off rooms capable of being used as a bedroom.

Response:

The floor plans for unit 3 have been amended to a 3m x 2m study. The room is considered to be too
small for reasonable use as a bedroom. The changes to the layout of unit 3 in addition to changes to
the other units where the media rooms have a larger opening are will ensure the that proposal is not
an over development of the site.

Australian Standards.

Issue
