Dear: Sir / Madame                    Date: 21-Apr-20

Re: Change to Development Approval 16992 DA

NATURE OF WORK:

Building Type: Multiple Dwelling Units (3) and shop at ground level.


PROPERTY DESCRIPTION:
Site Address: 23 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads

Lot 2 (UNIT 1)          RP No SP137636

Request:

Please find attached an application for a change to an existing approved Multiple Dwelling
and shop at 23 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads that seeks to approval to enclose a balcony
associated with Unit 2.

The following is a list of the site conditions relevant:

      1. The site comprises a rectangular shaped lot located on the northern side of Hastings
         Street and contains an existing four-storey complex comprising 3 units and office
         over basement carparking which is known as 23 Hastings Street. The site comprises
         Unit 2, which is located on the first floor of the complex. The site is located in
         Hastings Street which includes a mix of residential and business uses.
      2. The applicant seeks Council approval to change 16992DA to enable the enclosure of
         a recessed balcony adjacent the laundry associated with Unit 1. The existing balcony
         is currently unusable due the proximity of adjoining units and the very small size of
         balcony area.
      3. The balcony is proposed to be enclosed with the walls and glazing to create a W.C.
         adjacent the laundry area of the unit. The enclosure of the balcony increases the
         existing floor area of the unit by an additional 2.4m2, resulting in a maximum floor
         area of approximately 530m2. It is noted that Councils previous report for the change
         to approval 132000.200451.2 detailed that the maximum allowable floor area for the
         development was 755m2 and therefore would suggest the proposed development
         complies with scheme requirements relating to floor area.
