Dear Sir/Madam,

RE:       Request for a Minor Change to a Development Approval
          Development Permit for Material Change of Use (Detached House)
          22 Arakoon Crescent, Sunshine Beach
          Lot 793 on RP48111
          Council Ref: MCU19/0008

In accordance with Section 78 of the Planning Act 2016, please find enclosed a request for a Minor Change to
the Development Permit for a Material Change of Use (Detached House) (Council Ref: MCU19/0008). This
request is made on behalf of Andrew Douglass, being the landowner of the premises identified above.

In support of the application, please find enclosed the following:

      •   Attachment 1     Approved Building Design Plans prepared by James Russell Architect
      •   Attachment 2     Proposed Building Design Plans prepared by Clare Design


Payment of the $1,166.00 application fee will be made upon Council issuing the relevant Tax Invoice.


1.    Background
Council issued a Decision Notice under the Planning Act 2016 for a Material Change of Use to establish a
Detached House at the subject site on 11 June 2019 (Council ref MCU19/0008). It is noted that the need for a
Material Change of Use Development Permit was triggered due to the site being located in the Coastal Protection
Overlay. Further, the design of the built form did not comply in full with the provisions of the Detached House
Code, which was the primary assessment Code at the time of approval. The Development Approval has a
currency period of six (6) years, ending on 11 December 2025, taking into account the 6 month extension
provided under the Minister’s COVID-19 provisions.

The Decision Notice for the Material Change of Use to establish a Detached House included a suite of approved
plans and a number of conditions, which are the subject of this request. Please refer to a copy of the Approved
Plans, which were prepared by James Russell Architect, in Attachment 1. Ultimately it is the landowner’s
intention to redesign the built form of the Dwelling to provide improved living spaces, a more functional layout
