 Submitter   Submission and Grounds of Submission                                                                              Planners’ Response                                                                                         Recommendation
                                                                                                                               supported. It is not sound planning to increase the number of people living in an area affected by
                                                                                                                               flood hazard.
 20858903    Submitter lives in own home in Laburnum Crescent Noosaville and wants new scheme to leave the building            Noted. There are no proposed zoning changes in the immediate locality in the New Noosa plan.               That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of these submissions.
             zoning in their street and the immediate area to remain unchanged, making sure unit blocks etc cannot be
             built and opposes secondary dwellings on each block.
 20868038    Noosa Airfield Support the Draft Noosa Plan as it recognizes the importance of the existing airfield land use     Noted. The subject site is recognised and annotated air service in the community facilities zone. It is    That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of this submission
             by its recognition in the Strategic Framework.                                                                    not considered appropriate to consider any future development on this site as exempt development
                                                                                                                               given the sensitive and constrained nature of the site and surrounding locality. In addition the
             Recommend the following to ensure appropriate practical measures are incorporated in the planning scheme          subject site is not considered a significant airport in the region unlike the Sunshine coast airport and
             that align with the strategic intent for the airport to be protected and enhanced and ensure the planning         therefore does not require further protection of an overlay or consider as part of designated airport
             scheme reflects the actual operational and safety requirements of the airfield as the occur on the ground         control area.
             and as required by federal legislation:
             •   The subject site is in the Community Facilities zone and annotated a “air service” which is further defined
                 in the planning scheme. The table of Assessment for the zone however does not make reference to this
                 use and therefore by default is inconsistent impact. Given the designation of the land and the associated
                 annotation on the map recognizes the existence of the airfield suggest that the table of Assessment be
                 amended to be exempt development if annotated for this purpose.
             •   The inclusion of a new Airport Environs Overlay Code to protect he airfield from reverse amenity issues,
                 safety and regulating new development. Example provided with submission.
             •   The inclusion of an Airport Environs overlay map to identify a buffer airport control area, safety zones,
                 access and landing zones. Example provided with submission
             •   Amend the proposed zoning map to include the entire area designated as airport control area as
                 Community Facilities Zone with annotation.
 20867166    Under the waterways works code there are some inconsistencies between the areas zoned Low Density and             Noted and reviewed. Provisions regarding Noosa waters setbacks should be consistent in both the            Including provisions in the Medium Density Residential zone to be consistent with the low
             Medium Density. We would like to see these rules harmonised.                                                      Medium and Low Density Residential zones.                                                                  density zone regarding Noosa waters.
 20868183    Objection to the proposed change in zoning of 111 Lake Weyba Drive. Submitter states the proposed                 The flood hazard in this part of Noosaville is significant. A complete revision of council’s flood         That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of these submissions.
             changes would result in a reduction of the residential development entitlements afforded to the land, in          modelling and mapping was prepared for the whole of Noosa River and are based on the equivalent
             particular:                                                                                                       of a 1 in 100 year flood event (1%AEP) including climate change projections to year 2100.
             •  Reduce area zoned Low Density Residential Zone and increased proportion of the site zoned                      For some time Council has had a policy of not allowing the filling of land to meet flood immunity and
                Environmental Management and Conservation.                                                                     not increasing the number of lots and in turn households living within the flood hazard area.
             • Inclusion of code provisions if administered rigorously would have the effect of sterilizing future             For transparency, given these lots should not be subdivided, the Low Density Residential Zone has
                subdivision. These include Noosaville Local Plan Code PO32 and AO32; and Reconfiguration of a Lot              broadly been applied over existing homes on the site but no further. The provisions in Reconfiguring
                Code PO4.                                                                                                      a Lot Code are designed to make this position as clear as possible.
             • Acknowledge existing constraints on the land however, such constraints should be appropriately
                interrogated as part of a development application and not a broad scale mapping approach.
             Seeks amended zoning to reflect the current Noosa Plan 2006 as well as removal of Code provisions that
             specifically prevent subdivision within Lake Weyba Drive, to allow for the site specific determination of
             constraints rather than the preclusion on the grounds of broad brush mapping.
 20851079    Regarding 135 Lake Weyba Drive, the submitter objects to the extent of the Environmental Management and
             Conservation Zone over the site. Attention is drawn to Reconfiguring a Lot Application RAL17/0504 for a 4
             lot subdivision in accordance with the current zoning of the land. That application was refused and is
             currently under appeal in the Planning & Environment Court. Under such circumstances it is considered
             inappropriate for Council to change the zone in the way proposed. Submitter requests that the zoning be
             amended to mirror the current split zoning allocation to reflect the achievable use of the land and updated to
             the current QPP terminology as Low Density Residential.
 20867873    Owner of 143 Lake Weyba Dr Noosaville objects to the proposed zoning of the site. The owner requests the
             Low Density residential zone be extended over the entire site as per the 2006 Noosa Plan; or amend the
             relevant provisions in the Draft Plan so as to allow for the subdivision of the land into 3 lots generally as
             shown in the preliminary plan attached to the submission.
 20862013    Objection to Munna Beach Apartments at 291 Gympie Tce Noosaville being included in Tourist                        In the current scheme These units have been included in the Attached Housing Zone and consist of           That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of these submissions
             Accommodation Zone for the following reasons:                                                                     a three storey resort complex. These are existing residents and owners enjoy existing use rights to
 20868602                                                                                                                      live in their units or rent to longer term tenants. The use of multiple dwellings will remain a
             •   The building was initially built in the 1980s and has a mixture of permanent residents and Short-term         consistent use under the New Noosa Plan. However it is primarily a visitor resort and given its
 20866061        holiday rentals managed by an on-site manager. We have never had any residential restrictions on              location on Gympie Terrace it is considered appropriate to continue to include it in the Tourist
 20867700        usage of the unit.                                                                                            Accommodation Zone.
             •   The current development density of Munna Beach Apartment’s site is appropriate for the area and
                 consistent with other use in the area.
             •   Restrictions on residential use proposed in the Tourist Accommodation zone should not be applied and
                 the zone should be replaced with another zoning commensurate with the current development.
