Lot Reconfiguration (1 Lot into 2) - RAL19/0030

                                 ■   Stonnwater, potable water, electricity, reticulated gas,
                                     telephone and master antenna television services are located
                                     adjacent to the lot. A sewer is located along the lake frontage
                                     to the north of the property.
                                 ■   The land is grassed with no trees.


Enclosed for your attention are the following:

       1. DA Form 1 - Development application details
       2. Contour & Detail Plan prepared by Noosa Mapping and Surveys.
       3. Reconfiguration Plan (1:300 at A3) prepared by JFP

I have compared the proposal to Division 23 - Reconfiguring a Lot Code in the Noosa Plan and
consider that it complies with all the overall outcomes sought. The proposal is also generally
consistent with the specific outcomes listed in the Reconfiguring a Lot Code. In support of the
proposal to reconfigure Lot 4 into two lots, I draw your attention to the following:

  i.     The lots exceed the minimum allotment areas of 600m2 (specified in Table 14.68);
 n.      I am informed by my surveyor the average width of both lots is 16.2m. Notwithstanding the
         lots are marginally narrower than the minimum average size (specified in Table 14.68), I
         request Council accept them as acceptable and in compliance with its policies having regard
         to the following facts and circumstances:
             a. both lots have an elevated outlook over the broad, open-space area to the north;
             b. the lots are relatively regular in shape allowing adequate building envelopes for the
                 design and construction of dwelling houses compatible with the surrounding areas;
             c. the angled boundaries to the north provide a frontage of approximately 18m for each
                 lot;
             d. both lots have quite long boundaries (almost 44m and 41m respectively); and
             e. the dividing fence to the eastern boundary of proposed lot 72 is built wholly on the
                 adjacent lot, thereby providing a marginally greater area within the subject lot.
 in.     The lots are above the modelled flood levels (complies with Table 14.69);
 iv.     The proposed lot sizes are consistent with the range of lot sizes within the residential
         precincts of Noosa Springs; and
 v.      Two dwellings are less bulky and provide another view corridor (between the 2 dwellings)
         compared to a single dwelling on one lot.

If you require anything further, please do not hesitate to contact me. Otherwise, I would be grateful
if Council approves the reconfiguration of Lot 4 into two lots at its earliest convenience.


Yours faithfully.
