Delegated Report - Code - Planning MCU24 0022 · MCU24/0022

                      PO2 Development occurs on a site with adequate area for the proposed use, including client
                      and guest parking without adverse impact on neighbouring properties.
               The proposal is for a traditional bed and breakfast style accommodation, with the applicant
               proposing to short-term let one bedroom within the existing dwelling house only. The site includes
               an existing single car garage, with sufficient area available onsite for an additional carpark for
               guests. The proposal is therefore considered to comply with PO2 of the Home-based Business
               Code.
               Vehicle Parking
               Acceptable outcome AO12 of the Home-Based Business Code seeks:
                      AO12 Parking is provided in accordance with Table 9.4.2.4 of the Driveways and Parking
                      Code
               The Driveways and Parking Code requires one space to be provided per guest bedroom, in
               addition to the two covered spaces for the Dwelling house. The existing dwelling house includes a
               single car garage, with sufficient space for an additional onsite carpark located in front of the garage.
                      PO12 Adequate off-street vehicle parking is provided for the users of the home-based
                      business without causing adverse impact to the residents of adjoining properties.
               The existing dwelling house includes a single car garage only, with the application proposing to
               provide a single guest carpark in tandem with the garage space. The dwelling house was approved
               under Noosa Plan 2006, which required only one carparking space to be provided on site for a
               detached house.
               Generally tandem carparks are not supported under Noosa Plan 2020, however the circumstances
               of the proposal, being a home-hosted short-term accommodation with a maximum of 2 guests is
               considered minor in nature, with the host responsible for the management of onsite parking. A
               condition is included in the recommendation requiring guest parking to be located onsite. The
               proposal is therefore considered to comply with PO12 of the Home-based Business Code.
               Safety and Amenity
               Acceptable outcome AO17.2 of the Low Density Residential Zone Code seeks:
                      AO17.2 Landscaping, fences or other works on property boundaries or road reserves do not
                      create impediments for pedestrian or cyclist use of the footpath.
               The previous works undertaken in the road reserve (unsealed informal carparking and
               landscaping) were identified as non-compliant development works and had the potential to impede
               access along the verge. The non-conforming verge works were addressed in councils Information
               Request requiring the removal of the non-compliant works.
                      PO17 Development is designed to maintain the safety and security of persons on the
                      premises and nearby premises and to avoid significant adverse changes to the solar access,
                      air quality, noise, accessibility or other conditions enjoyed by users of associated, adjoining
                      or nearby premises.
               In the response provided to the Council issued Information Request, the applicant requested the
               opportunity for council to condition improvements pertaining to landscaping and general works
               within the road reserve. As such, it is considered appropriate that the remediation works can be
               conditioned appropriately.
