PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                             9 JUNE 2020


The proposal revises the as constructed design to reduce the overall height from the existing
pitch roof ridgeline of RL 7.521 metres to RL 6.223m relative to natural ground level by removing
parts of the existing roof and lowering it to form a simpler, lower profile skillion roof. The resultant
differential height between the previous shed and the proposed shed is 1.233 metres. The
proposal also includes:
•     new vertical timber cladding (dark grey timber finish) around shed (including horizontal
      battens up to the height of the roof on western and eastern elevations);
•     a new colour palette to minimise reflectivity and assist the building to recede into the
      environment;
•     upgrades to the office building for design and colour palette to unify the office and shed
      buildings;
•     landscaping design proposal to soften the building design; and
•     newly constructed 1.8m high black galvanised fence on the eastern side of the QBFP
      building.
The proposed modified boatshed will still be visible from the nearby residential development.
However, it is less dominating within the local area, due to the proposed reduction in height,
change in roof line, use of natural colours and finishes (including timber) and landscaping to
screen and soften the built form. This design is considered appropriate and is in keeping with the
Noosaville river side urban character.
Access (Noosa River Holiday Park)
The boatshed adjoins and gains access through the Noosa River Caravan Park located at Lot
131 SP143417 which is identified as a Queensland Heritage Place (place id 602706). The
boatshed has relied on the Caravan Park for site access for many years. Refer to Figure 5 –
general access area through over Noosa River Holiday Park land.
