ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA                                                           3 APRIL 2014


         9.    The development provides insufficient social infrastructure to meet the needs of
               its future residents.
         10.   The development would use limited remaining treatment capacity at Noosa’s
               sewage treatment plant at the opportunity cost of planning for future
               development in the Noosa area.
         11.   The development will have unacceptable impacts on Walter Hay Drive’s
               function and role as Noosa’s preferred primary entrance route.
         12.   The development will have undesirable impacts on the scenic amenity and
               natural character of the area and the inter-urban break experienced along
               Walter Hay Drive.
         13.   The development’s residential intensity significantly exceeds reasonable
               expectations for existing local residents and adjacent visitor accommodation
               businesses and will unduly impact on the area’s amenity.
         14.   The development poses unacceptable risks to people and property due to
               bushfire hazard.
         15.   The development will place residents at unacceptable exposure levels to
               mosquitos, biting midges and associated arboviruses, the management of
               which is likely to result in financial impositions on Council.
         16.   Concurrence Agency conditions directed by the Department of Environment &
               Heritage Protection significantly impact on the development’s functionality and
               would result in a substantially different development. The conditions require
               significant changes, which would also be likely to cause additional persons to
               make submissions objecting to the changes if circumstances allowed.
         17.   The applicant has not demonstrated sufficient grounds exist to overcome the
               development’s conflicts with relevant assessment instruments.
    B.   Refuse that part of the application that falls within the Sunshine Coast Council local
         government area, as directed by the Sunshine Coast Council in its concurrence
         agency response dated 5 February 2014.
