Comment:
Where probable solutions are not met, an alternative solution demonstrating compliance with the specific
outcome is provided below, including sufficient planning grounds to justify the conflicts with the probable
solutions.



    8.5.1          Business Uses Code
Comment: The proposed small restaurant has been assessed and is consistent with the specific outcomes
outlined in Tables 14-8 and 14-10 of the Business Uses Code. The site is highly accessible and well presented to
the road (Kingsgate Drive). The site’s mature vegetation obstructs the building mass and adds to the Hinterland
streetscape. Existing landscaping treatments maintain a satisfactory level of acoustic and visual amenity for
surrounding properties. The outdoor dining has been designed and positioned as to protect patrons and adds to
the low-key appeal and values of the locality.



    8.5.2          Cooroy and Lake Macdonald Locality Code
Comment: The proposal is consistent with the specific outcomes outlined in Table 6.12 of the Tewantin &
Doonan Locality Code. Whilst the existing restaurant use is identified as an inconsistent uses in the Rural
Settlement Zone, the proposed development is deemed to be not inconsistent with the overall outcomes for the
Cooroy and Lake Macdonald Locality. The landscape character and visual amenity of the Hinterland is retained
by the proposed development. The long existing shop on the site has been retrofitted to create a take-away shop
that is reflective of the rural scale and character of the community.
