REPORT
On 8 April 2021, an application under the Noosa Plan 2006 to remove the existing dwelling and
develop the site for a duplex dwelling comprising 2 x 3 bedroom dwelling units was refused for the
following reasons:
1.    The proposal results in a development that does not comply with the following provisions of
      the Noosa Plan 2006 Eastern Beaches Locality Code:
      a.   Overall Outcomes 7.7.2g), h) and mm) as the scale and form of the proposed building is
           not in keeping with the surrounding streetscape and development, and the garages will
           dominate and present poorly to the street.
      b.   Specific Outcomes O3, O4, O5 and O6 as the proposal exceeds the maximum density,
           building height, site cover and gross floor area sought for the Eastern Beaches locality,
           proposes insufficient side setbacks and:
           i.     will be imposing on the neighbouring properties and visually dominate the street;
           ii.    will not be compatible with development in the surrounding area;
           iii.   will present excessive building bulk to adjacent and surrounding properties, and

                                                                                      Page 17 of 67
