Minor Change Application

7.0        CHANGES TO INFRASTRUCTURE CHARGES NOTICE

Considering an increase in the number of bedrooms is not proposed, additional infrastructure charges are not applicable. It
should be noted that the addition of the study at ground level features a built-in-desk and is not a sufficient area and
dimensions to be later converted to a bedroom; for this reason, levying infrastructure charges is unjustifiable.

9.0        CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT

In accordance with Section 81(3) of the Planning Act 2016, the responsible entity:

(a) must assess against, or have regard to, the matters that applied when the development application was made; and
(b) may assess against, or have regard to, the matters that applied when the change application was made.

An assessment of the current Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020), concludes that the proposed change, being minor in
