 4. ADVICE & INFORMATION
 Planning                                   Officer Name – Denis Wallace

 The proposal for a Multiple Housing - Type 4 unit development is an inconsistent Use within
 the Community Service zone under the provisions of The Noosa Plan. An application for the
 use would need to demonstrate sufficient grounds to overcome the conflict with the planning
 scheme in accordance with S326(1)(b) of the Sustainable Planning Act.

 In particular, the application would need to demonstrate that the land should not be retained
 for community purposes. Preliminary advice from Council’s Strategic Planning unit indicates
 that no additional community facilities have been identified or planned for the Tewantin CBD,
 with the intent to continue to upgrade and strengthen the existing Tewantin Community
 Centre at Ernest/Earl Streets.

 Differences and changes from the previous development proposal presented at PLM13/0215
 were discussed.

 The owner’s again confirmed that the development is not proposed to be an NRAS or similar
 recognised affordable housing scheme. It’s noted that the units are relatively small and likely
 to garner broad support for housing product of this type in the locality.

 The key technical provisions of the proposal are below, with a discussion provided further
 below:

 Height – It should be noted that the maximum height limits for Tewantin’s adjacent Business
 Centre zone is 2 storeys and 10m only. Council officers prefer that any 3 storey portion of the
 development be limited to the rear of the site, limited in area, and a greater setback to the
 upper level be provided to that currently shown on the proposal plan.

This document is a record of prelodgement discussions and will not be made available for public viewing. Prelodgement
discussions are conducted to explore development options and requirements, identify issues and provide guidance to prospective

approval of the proposal on the part of Council or Council officers, nor guarantee that all potential issues associated with a
development proposal have been raised / identified. When a formal development application is lodged, the proposal will be
assessed on its planning merits in accordance with Council’s policy framework existing at the time of the assessment.
