Minor Change

An assessment of the proposed changes against the provisions of the Planning Act 2016 relating to
what defines a minor change is detailed below. The Planning Act 2016 states that a minor change:

      b) for a development approval, is a change to the approval that —
        (i) would not result in a substantially different development; and

      The proposed works are considered to comply with the provisions relating to a minor change
      and are not considered to be a substantially different development as detailed by the
      Development Assessment Rules which include:

         (a) involves a new use;

                 No new use proposed.

         (b) results in the application applying to a new parcel of land;

                 No new parcel of land to be utilised.

         (c) dramatically changes the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance;

                 Building form not significantly altered as works relate to an elevated platform that is not highly visible to the
                 surrounding area.

         (d) changes the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended;

                 Proposed units will function more efficiently with the additional carpark.

         (e) removes a component that is integral to the operation of the development;

                 No components removed.

         (f) significantly impacts on traffic flow and the transport network, such as increasing traffic to the site;

                 Proposed units will function more efficiently with the additional carpark.

         (g) introduces new impacts or increase the severity of known impacts;

                 Proposed carpark will improve carparking in the street and alleviated congestion.

         (h) removes an incentive or offset component that would have balanced a negative impact of the development; or

                 No change to proposed use.

         (i) impacts on infrastructure provisions.

                 No change to existing infrastructure servicing the site .

       (ii) if a development application for the development, including the change, were made
       when the change application is made would not cause—

                 (A) the inclusion of prohibited development in the application;

                 Complies.

                 (B) referral to a referral agency, other than to the chief executive, if there were
                 no referral agencies for the development application;

                 The proposed carpark does not trigger referral to a referral agency.

                 (C) referral to extra referral agencies, other than to the chief executive;

                 The proposed carpark does not trigger referral to an extra referral agency.

                 (D) a referral agency to assess the application against, or have regard to,
