Council Report - MCU18 0204 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR A MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE FOR ENTERTAINMENT AND DINING BUSINES

               SPECIAL COMMITTEE MEETING REPORT                                                             5 JUNE 2019


               current location. Furthermore, the proposed footpath dining area adjacent to the loading bay on
               Heron Street is likely to impact on the capacity to use the loading bay as the unloading of
               vehicles relies on access through the proposed dining area.
               4.     DRAFT PLANNING SCHEME
               Under the draft planning scheme the site will be zoned Local Centre and the proposed
               development would also be subject to a Code assessable development application. The
               maximum permissible building height will remain at 8.0 metres and the allowable plot ratio will
               remain the same as what is currently allowable under the Noosa Plan. The draft scheme
               introduces a new setback requirement of 2 metres for the first floor from the village green. The
               draft scheme includes criteria for assessment with regards to building design and streetscape
               which strongly re-inforce the outcomes sought by the current planning scheme.
               5.     CONSULTATION
               5.1. Referral Agencies
               The application was referred to the following Referral Agencies:

                      The Department is a referral agency for Contaminated land (unexploded ordinance).
                      The Department has responded advising that conditions should be applied
               5.2. Other Referrals
               The application was forwarded to the following internal Council officers:
                     Infrastructure Planning
                     Coordinator, Development Engineering
               6.     CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The application seeks to demolish the existing single storey building and develop in part a three
               storey building to be used for office, shop and salon and entertainment and dining business. The
               proposed development exceeds the required 2 storeys and 8.0 metres in height and consists of a
               roof top terrace which is to be used in conjunction with the entertainment and dining business.
               Whilst acknowledging that there is an existing approval which permits redevelopment of the site
               the proposed height and built form of the current application is not consistent with surrounding
               development and the informal character of the Peregian beach village. Furthermore, the
               application proposes to increase the plot ratio above that which has currently been approved and
               the permissible plot ratio in the planning scheme and will result in a building bulk not in keeping
               with the Peregian Beach village. In addition, the proposed use areas result in a requirement for
               additional car parking which has not been provided.
