               2.     SITE DETAILS
               2.1. Background
               The proposed works sets out to address the conditions of the higher order approval MCU22/0174.
               2.2. Site Description
               The subject site is located along Edward Street, Noosaville. Edward Street is serviced by a 6.0-
               metre-wide sealed road and pedestrian footpaths along both sides of the road. The road reserve
               is uncharacteristically narrow (1.5 – 1.7m).
               3.     ASSESSMENT
               The proposed development includes the construction of a vehicle crossover and footpath as well
               as landscaping and earthworks. The proposed works has largely been assessed as part of the
               higher order approval (MCU22/0174).
               The site is constrained due to the narrow verge width which prevents a standard driveway
               crossover and footpath from being constructed. Non-standard driveway and footpath layouts have
               been proposed to ensure that both pieces of infrastructure are functional and safe for their intended
               use. Given the constraints, this is considered acceptable.
               Engineering believe that the proposed development can achieve relevant compliances and
               recommends the following conditions.
               3.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
               Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
               statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
               •      State Planning Policy;
               •      South East Queensland Regional Plan;
               •      Planning Regulation 2017; and
               •      Noosa Plan 2020.
               3.2. Noosa Plan 2020
               The following codes from the Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
               •      Driveways and Parking Code;
               •      Transport Code;
               •      Earthworks Code;
               •      Landscaping Code;
               •      Water Quality and Drainage Code; and
               •      Flood Hazard Overlay Code.
               The application has been found to generally comply with all applicable statutory instruments.
               4.     CONSULTATION
               4.1. Referral Agencies
               Not Applicable
               4.2. Internal Council Referrals
               The application was forwarded to the following internal Council officers for review and/or comment:
               •      Senior Environmental Officer
               5.     CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme and
               does not raise any significant issues that cannot be addressed by reasonable and relevant
               conditions. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
