of a Lot (to facilitate the creation of up to 26 balance lots) which further reinforces the staged and integrated
manner within which these development approvals will be delivered (Council Ref. REC17/0022).

In light of the changes outlined herein, it is advised that a separate (yet concurrent) Change Application (“minor
change”) has been lodged over Precinct E2. It is noted that the changes to the Precinct E2 and F approvals will
also require minor amendments to the reconfiguration approval.

2.0       DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES

The proposed changes to the existing development approval are described in detail in the sections below (refer
enclosed architectural drawings).

2.1    Change to Description of Development

It is proposed to change the description of the development to reflect the proposed reduction in dwelling unit
numbers anticipated by this permissible change request. The new description of development will be as follows:-

Material Change of Use – 137 Multiple Dwelling Units and Associated Facilities – Shop, Restaurant, Multi-
Function Room and Gym

2.2    Changes to Approved Drawings

It is proposed to amend the approved drawings as follows:
       Reduce the overall number of dwelling units from 145 to 137;
       Amend the overall number of persons from 426.5 to 425.6. This proposed density remains consistent
         with the anticipated density under the Noosa Plan of 100 persons / hectare (i.e. 4.262ha x 100 = 426.2
         persons);
       Minor increase in overall gross floor area from 20.046.5m2 (nb. previous approved plans denote a total
         GFA of 19,531.5m2 – we note that there is a minor discrepancy in the calculation of areas for unit type 18
         in these plans) to 20,083m2 (nb. the original approved GFA was 21,950m2);
       Minor redesign of central communal facilities, wherein such changes are generally contained to the
         arrangement of ‘back of house’ servicing facilities, with no significant changes to either the scale or the
         external appears of the built form;
       Rationalisation of pedestrian networks across the development;
       Minor amendments to the driveway and parking arrangements in the southern part of the site to achieve
         access arrangements and reflect other changes proposed in Precinct E2. It is recognised that the
         amendments to the driveway will also necessitate a consequential amendment to the approval over the
         adjacent Precinct E2 (Council Ref: MCU15/0109). As indicated in section 1.0 of this correspondence
         above, a separate (yet concurrent) Change Application has been lodged over Precinct E2 reflecting a
         corresponding change to the driveway arrangement. We note that this will also require an amendment
         to the reconfiguration approval (e.g. reciprocal access easements between Precinct F & E2);
       Minor amendments to the orientation of unit blocks 13 and 14 to increase the efficiency of the layout and
         function of these buildings;
       Introduction of a new 3 bedroom unit type into Block 14 and 3 new unit types into Block 2;
       Minor variations to the building heights generally as follows:-
