Condition 9 – Planter Boxes
9. Any solid structure for the required planter boxes/ pots must have an interesting finish such
as timber panelling or the like and not a rendered masonry finish to enhance the softening
effect of the landscaping.
Applicant’s Representation
The condition is considered unreasonable, irrelevant and overly prescriptive. The prohibition of
use of a rendered masonry finish fails to recognise that concrete rendering can have an interesting
texture, colour and finish. The condition is requested to be modified to “any solid structure for the
required planter boxes/pots must have an interesting finish to enhance the softening effect of the
landscaping.”
Assessment of Representation
The applicant’s representations are agreed.
3. CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
It is concluded the requested changes to the operating hours and requirements for amplified music
may be supported in part to recognise the important role the Noosa Junction plays as a major
centre for the shire and as a place intended for restaurants, entertainment and live music at night.
However, this should also be balanced with the need to maintain nearby residents with a
reasonable level of amenity and for this reason it is appropriate to impose some restrictions on the
operating hours and playing of amplified music in outdoor dining areas where noise is difficult to
mitigate.
