As demonstrated in the table above, the proposal complies with all the key parameters
outline in the planning scheme and compliant with the conditions of approval. However,
setbacks, roof terrace and car parking is further discussed below.
Setbacks
The proposed changes closely align with the setbacks of the existing villa. The proposal
meets the Planning Scheme setbacks as the setbacks apply to the site boundaries and do
not apply to internal GTP lot boundaries, as in this scenario. Both the superseded Planning
Scheme and the Noosa Plan 2020 seek appropriate separation between buildings to
maintain or improve privacy, general amenity and shading. It is determined that sufficient
separation is provided, and the following design elements demonstrate the design has
resulted in no new impacts, maximised privacy and amenity and a non-worsening of
shading—
    screening devices are proposed where appropriate on all levels, including the roof top
     terrace;
    proposed separation between buildings is 1.3-1.5 m, noting that the proposed setbacks
     are consistent with the existing built form, with the exception of the Level 3 deck;
    the proposed changes still maintain appropriate setback to the western boundary;
    no shading impacts will result from the new design as the adjoining villa to the south is
     orientated forward of the existing/proposed villa. The pool that services the complex
     adjoins to the north;
    Level 3 deck is located to the west/north and overlooks the internal driveway; and
    The design closely aligns and is complementary with the existing built form and the
     original villas within the site.
    The new design addresses this aspect and provides improved privacy. Overall, the
    proposal provides good separation between buildings and better amenity in terms of
    privacy, shading and noise than currently exists.
