GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                                    13 SEPTEMBER 2021


The primary difference between the superseded and the current planning schemes is that the
proposed uses are no longer consistent uses requiring a code assessable application. Under the
Noosa Plan 2020 the proposed uses are inconsistent uses requiring impact assessment.
The SPS and the Noosa Plan also differ in that an additional 700m2 of showroom, and indoor sport
and recreation is now supported on lot 22 by the Noosa Plan 2020, with service stations made
inconsistent.
This is set out in the following table which details the assessment benchmarks which determine the
sites potential yield under both the Noosa Plan 2006 and the Noosa Plan 2020.
