Planning Report - Sunshine Beach Surf Club · MCU17/0024.04

The proposal therefore complies with the Stormwater Management Code.

Earthworks and Excavation

The proposed works involve minimal excavation, primarily to accommodate building footings and
slab construction. The extent of excavation is well below the 100 m³ threshold that would
otherwise trigger detailed acid sulfate soil assessment, consistent with Council’s pre-lodgement
advice.

Landscaping

Landscaping will be undertaken in accordance with the Draft Landscape Plan provided in
Appendix C, which incorporates native coastal species to complement the existing vegetation in
Ed Webb Park.

The landscape treatments will soften the building’s visual presence, stabilise soil surfaces, and
enhance the natural character of the site, meeting the intent of the Landscaping Code.

Conclusion

The proposed development meets the purpose and intent of the relevant Works Codes of the
Noosa Plan 2020.

Key functional outcomes — safe access, effective stormwater management, minimal excavation,
and native landscaping — are achieved without the need for new public infrastructure or changes
to existing Council assets
