4.3.3 Landscaping Code
The overall outcome is the achievement of a high quality of landscape design that—

a. retains, reinforces and enhances the natural landscape character of the site, streetscape and
locality;

b. retains existing vegetation and other natural features for their ecological, aesthetic and cultural
values;

c. ensures the revegetation and rehabilitation of native wildlife habitat and riparian zones to protect
and enhance ecological and biodiversity values;

d. facilitates water management including on-site detention and the efficient infiltration of
stormwater;

e. enables the establishment of appropriate plantings that are of a scale and density commensurate
with building height, bulk and scale to buffer development and conflicting land uses;

f, enhances privacy between dwelling units and accommodation units;

g. accommodates the outdoor recreation needs of dwelling occupants; and

h, provides adequate vegetation treatment to steep slopes and unstable landforms.
Proposal

The proposal represents the retention of a well established site and building within the Noosaville
Locality. Through the retention of this site in its current state, the landscape character of the location
will be retained. All existing vegetation will be retained and no changes to the hard or soft landscaping
of the site will ensure that there is a non-worsening of current stormwater flows and treatment.

4.3.4 Engineering Works Codes

As no new development is proposed and as the application only involves a change of use of the existing
building, the only relevant Engineering Works Codes is considered to be carparking.

Extracts from the Driveways and Carparking Code relating to carparking requirements for Entertainment
and dining business Type 1 - Food and beverage are:

Table 14-47 — Minimum vehicle parking requirements

Entestainment and dining business—

 

 

Type 1 Food & Beverages 1 space per 10m’, ‘or part thereof, of use area and outdoor dining
area (excluding kitchen and food storage areas) on the property.

 

 

Conservatively, 20 - 30m? of kitchen and food storage area will be required for the restaurant (the exact
area is dependant upon the nature of the menu). This results in remaining use area of 39 - 49m? for the
purpose of carparking. Based on the required carparking rate of 1 space per 10m’, 4-5 spaces would
be required.
