Ozcare Noosa Minor Change v1

Condition 27
Revised plans of the service yard demonstrating compliance with the above conditions shall be submitted to the
Council for approval prior to obtaining a Development Permit for Operational Works.


Condition 28
Carparking shall be provided within the site as generally shown on drawing PD_A_002.0 E, dated 14/01/22, as
submitted by Enrich Architecture, except as modified herein.



4.0 Conclusion
This request for a minor change application should be supported as:
• The proposed change meets the criteria applicable to making a Minor Change application to a development
  approval, and more particularly the changes will not result in substantially different development.
• The proposed change does not materially increase the intensity of the use occurring on site as there is no
  increase in the number of residents or staff occurring on-site.
• The proposed change and associated bushfire management clearing reduces the risk of bushfire hazard to the
  site. The bushfire management clearing and construction of the access track crossing on Council’s land also
  reduces bushfire risk to the broader locality and improves access for emergency services, resulting in a
  community benefit.
• The conversion of existing shared double bed rooms to single bed / room configurations responds to current
  legislative and market requirements for aged care accommodation, and in particular eliminating shared
  bedrooms/ ensuites as an important issue of infection control in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
• The proposed alterations are largely occurring within the existing building footprint of the existing facility, results
  in a decrease in the overall impervious area site cover, the proposed extensions are occurring within the ‘Future
  Expansion Area’ shown on with original 216575 DA approved plans, and the new double storey configuration of
  the Banksia North and Banksia South wings are consistent with the building height expectations stated within
  Performance Outcome PO17 of the Community Facilities Zone Code.
• Any loss of trees can an adequately offset by planting to detailed within a subsequent Operational Works
  Application.
