As detailed by the table above the proposal generally complies with the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2006
except in relation to setbacks.

The site is severely constrained in terms of slope with the property dropping steeply from the front property
boundary. Due to this slope it would not feasible or visually appropriate to locate the required carparking 6
metres back from the front property boundary.

It is noted that all new dwellings on the eastern side of Park Crescent have been designed to step down the
site and have been granted siting relaxations for garages within the front 6 metre setback. An approval for a
dwelling with associated front and side siting relaxations was recently approved for the site under
