51.     The development complies with the Natural Hazards Overlay Code, on the following basis:
          •     The proposed development does not result in any cut or fill, with the building design including a
                slab height that ensures flood immunity in accordance with the requirements of Council’s Flood
                Information Certificate (Appendix VII); and,
          •     The proposed development does not result in the extraction of groundwater, which results in the
                aeration of previously saturated Acid Sulfate Soils.

52.     Accordingly, the proposal complies with the Natural Hazards Overlay Code and no further assessment is
        required.

5.4     Code Assessment
53.     The Planning Scheme includes assessment codes, which apply to the locality and zone, land use, overlays,
        and general development parameters. As part of this development application, the following codes have
        been addressed below:
            • Noosaville Locality Code
            • Residential Uses Code
            • Landscaping Code
            • Driveways and Carparking Code
            • Transport, Roads and Drainage Code
            • Erosion and Sediment Control Code
            • Existing Services Code
            • Earthworks Code
            • Waste Management Code
            • Water Sensitive Design Code

54.     An assessment against the above codes has identified that the proposal is compliant with, or can be
        conditioned to comply. The following section identifies the pertinent issues identified throughout the
        assessment of the application. Where the below sections are silent in relation to an assessable element,
        the development complies with that relevant assessment criteria and no further assessment is required.

5.4.1 Noosaville Locality Code
5.4.1.1 Specific Outcome 07 Density
55.    The development will result in a population density of 6.6 persons. This exceeds the permitted density
       of 100 persons hectare prescribed by Specific Outcome O7 (b) (ii) which equates to a density of 6.12
       persons for the subject site. As outlined in Section 2.2 (above), it is considered that the proposed
       development contributes to the overall outcomes of the Noosaville Locality by providing a multiple
       housing form that contributes to a high level of residential amenity, design quality and safety; a design
       that respects the scale and character of the streetscape and surrounding development; and is located
       within convenient access of employment centres, goods and services, public transport and community
       facilities. As aforementioned, to further enhance the residential amenity and compliment the
       streetscape, the provision of additional landscaping totaling 264m2 (calculated at a rate of 6.6 persons x
       40m2) is provided within the development.

5.4.1.2 Probable Solution S9.1 Minimum Front Setbacks
56.    S9.1 prescribes that buildings and structures must comply with the setbacks identified in Schedule 1 –
       Minimum Boundary Setbacks. According to Schedule 1, the minimum front setback for the Attached
