Town Planning Report_(2)

            Development along Eumundi Noosa Rd is a gateway entry point to Noosaville and the
             development provides an architecturally designed residential development incorporating
             suitable native landscaping that improves the site’s visual appearance when viewed from
             the road.
            Medium density housing zones provide for a diversity of housing choices by including
             multiple dwelling units and small dwellings (<100m2).

  Accordingly, the development is compliant with the overall outcomes sought by the code. A full
  assessment against the relevant benchmarks are attached as Appendix D.

  5.2.3      Use Code

  The subject development is required to be assessed against the provisions of the Dual Occupancy
  and Multiple Dwelling code. The development is generally compliant with the code and a full
  assessment against the relevant benchmarks is provided in Appendix D.

  5.3       KEY ISSUES

  5.3.1      Building Height

  The subject development does not strictly comply with the 8m height limit as described in AO8. The
  relevant performance outcomes PO8 states:
  Building and structures:
              1. are low rise and present a building height consistent with structures on adjoining and
                  surrounding premises;
              2. are designed to provide an interesting streetscape and complement landform changes
                  and landscapes
              3. do not visually dominate the street or surrounding area;
              4. maintain a vegetated skyline;
              5. do not unreasonably obscure views or lead to overshadowing of neighbouring
                  properties;
              6. do not exceed two storeys.


  The development is 2 storey in height and generally compliant with 8m height limit across the site.
  The non-compliance is largely due to the site’s natural topography i.e. the site falls away to the north
  east and south east corners. Accordingly, fill is required to level the site to facilitate the construction
  of buildings across the site.


  Further the inclusion of interesting roof lines, also contributed to the minor encroachment of the
  building ceiling above natural ground level. The image in Figure 8 below demonstrates the extent of
  the minor encroachment of the 8m building height in the context of the overall development and
  adjoining premises.
