1    DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE FOR MULTIPLE
     HOUSING TYPE 3 RETIREMENT & SPECIAL NEEDS (56 ADDITIONAL RETIREMENT
     DWELLINGS) AND RECONFIGURING A LOT (4 INTO 3 LOTS) (MCU15/0111 &
     REC15/0031)
     That Council note the report by the Coordinator Planning to the Planning & Environment
     Committee Meeting dated 12 July 2016 regarding Applications No. MCU15/0111 and
     REC15/0031 for a Development Permit for a Material Change of Use of Premises - Multiple
     housing Type 3 - Retirement & Special Needs (56 Additional Retirement Dwellings); and
     Reconfiguring a Lot – 4 Lots into 3 Lots situated at 2 & 4 Lamonts Road and 19 & 20
     Trading Post Road, Cooroy and:
     A.      Approve the Material Change of Use application (MCU15/0111) in accordance with
             the conditions contained in the Planning & Environment Committee Agenda dated 12
             July 2016;
     B.      Approve the Reconfiguring a Lot application (REC15/0031) in accordance with the
             conditions as contained in the Planning & Environment Committee Agenda dated 12
             July 2016;
     C.   Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with
          the Planning Scheme:
          1.      The development provides a logical extension of the approved retirement use
                  on adjacent land and will support the retirement housing needs of Cooroy.
          2.      The rural zoned allotment does not support any significant rural activities or
                  agricultural values and the development will not affect Cooroy’s rural production
                  capacity.
          3.      The development will not adversely impact on existing residential and rural
                  uses in the area.


2    APPOINTMENT         OF   EXTERNAL       MEMBERS       TO    COUNCIL’S       AUDIT     &   RISK

     Committee Meeting dated 12 July 2016 and re-appoint the current external members of the
