Comments

The proposed changes do not alter the existing footprint of Block 14 and therefore do not change site cover.

The conversion of the tearoom to residential purposes does not result in any change in Gross Floor Area (GFA), Site
Cover or Plot Ratio. The new unit 1403 has been provided with a courtyard area (20m2) for Private open space.

Conversion of the storeroom to residential use does not result in any increase in GFA as the storeroom was included
in the GFA calculations, as reflected on the notes to the GFA summary on architect plan 7038-DA01 (refer Appendix
A).

The proposed changes only increase the population density by 2.6 persons. The density of the development is
compatible with the surrounding development. We note that the current Noosa Plan 2020 no longer has criteria
relating to population density factor.

Block 14 car parking arrangements already exceed the required car parking numbers. Proposed new Unit 1403 will
be provided with one exclusive use space currently allocated to Unit 1402. Therefore, no additional car parking is
required as a result of the change.

The change, considered in context with the original approval and subsequent modifications which have been
assessed against the Transitional Planning Scheme 1997, Noosa Plan 2006 and Noosa Plan 2020, is consistent with
the relevant assessment benchmarks.

To facilitate the proposed change, we request amendments to the approval including condition 2, condition 64 and
Advisory Note 1. The changes are described below.

2.1   Change to Description of Development

         Function Room and Gym
