PM Submission Object - A White and K Luff MCU16/0090

        It is of concern the applicant has proceeded with an inconsistent       use of the site and now
        seeks retrospective    approval.    Council endorsement    of such breaches of process creates a
        dangerous planning precedent.

        It is also seriously concerning the number of Noosa Councillors who have supported the
        applicant publicly and appear to be prejudiced in favour of the applicant. These issues have
        been raised in correspondence        from Aaron White to Noosa Council dated 11 November 2016
        and 29 November 2016.

    11. We note the applicant failed to comply with Public Notification        obligations as set out in the
        Sustainable Planning Act 2009. The applicant only erected signage on their property
        indicating the application for a Material Change of Use on 24 or 25 November. This was
        approximately one week prior to close of submissions. This provided limited opportunity               for
        the community    and neighbouring        residents to provide a properly made submission.

        This matter was also raised in 29 November 2016 correspondence            to Noosa Council and is
        the subject of a complaint.


CONCLUSION

    •   The proposed development           is inconsistent with the desired environmental      outcomes and
        fails to comply with the Planning Scheme Codes;


    •   With the physical and planning constraints of the site, it is unlikely the proposal can be
        conditioned to mitigate the Impacts of an inconsistent use in a Rural5ettlement     Zone;


    •   Considering there are more appropriate sites for such a development within the shire
        without such constraints, it Is not considered an over-riding need exists for the development
        in the public interest; and


    •   The social, economic and environmental          benefits in developing the site for this community
        use do not justify approving the proposed development.


    •   Therefore the Application     MCU 16/0090 must be recommended           for refusal.
