GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                              13 SEPTEMBER 2021


RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Coordinator Planning to the General Committee Meeting dated
13 September 2021 regarding Application No. SPS21/0290 for a Request for Superseded Planning
Scheme - Commercial Business Type 1 Office, Type 2 Medical and Retail Business Type 4 -
Showroom at 28 Eenie Creek Road, Noosaville and refuse the Request to apply the Superseded
Planning Scheme for the following reasons:
1.     The introduction of the Noosa Plan 2020 has not resulted in an adverse planning change to
       the property pursuant to the Planning Act 2016.
2.     An application for the proposed development under the Superseded Planning Scheme is
       unlikely to be supported by Council given it conflicts with the outcomes sought for the site.

1.    PROPOSAL
The applicant seeks that the Council agree to a request to accept an application for Material Change
of Use for Commercial Business Type 1 Office, Type 2 Medical and Retail Business Type 4 -
Showroom under the superseded planning scheme (SPS) on approved Lot 2, being the Noosa Plan
2006.
Section 29(4) of the Planning Act 2016 states:
      A person may, within 1 year after the planning scheme and related policies become a
      superseded planning scheme, make a superseded planning scheme request in relation to the
      superseded planning scheme.
This application has been made within one year of the commencement of the Noosa Plan 2020, with
the Noosa Plan 2020 having commenced on 31 July 2020.
Agreement to the SPS request does not mean that the proposed development is approved, as a
code assessable application is still required for the proposed development under the Superseded
Planning Scheme.
The current application includes material which would be included in a development application
should the SPS request be accepted.
This material includes:
     Draft architect plans;
     Town planning report;
     Draft landscape concept plans;
     Draft civil engineering report;
     Draft stormwater management plan engineering report; and
     Draft traffic report and swept path diagrams;
It is proposed to construct 2 x two storey buildings, with the proposed gross floor areas as follows:
     Commercial Business Type 1 Office and Type 2 Medical – 1,300m2 on the first floor combined
     Retail Business Type 4 – Showroom – 2,675m2 on the ground floor
A copy of the proposal plan and a Locality Plan are detailed below:
