               PO8
               Buildings and structures are appropriately set back so as to—
                      a.      avoid and minimise disturbance on the ecological values of the land, waterways and
                              wetlands, water quality, coastal processes and heritage values;
                      b.      provide adequate distance from adjoining land uses;
                      c.      allow for vegetation retention and regrowth around buildings and structures; and
                      d.      protect the natural character and visual amenity of the Noosa River system and other
                              watercourses.
               Assessment:
               While the proposed shed seeks a reduced setback to a frontage boundary (Eenie Creek Road) it
               can comply with the Performance Outcomes due to the following justifications:
               •      the proposed location of the shed avoids and minimises any potential for disturbance to
                      ecological values of the land, waterways and wetlands, water quality, coastal processes
                      and heritage values as it has been sited on existing gravel driveway area without the need
                      for significant earthworks or vegetation clearing; and
               •      the proposed shed provides adequate distance from adjoining land uses as it supports the
                      current onsite use (maintenance shed for the sites operations team) and does not impact
                      on nearby residential uses which are buffered by approximately 50m, of which 35m is
                      existing mature vegetation; and
               •      the proposal allows for vegetation retention and regrowth around buildings and structures;
                      and
               •      the proposed development continues to protect the natural character and visual amenity of
                      the surrounding area however is not within the vicinity either the Noosa River system or
                      any other watercourses.
               •      It is also worth noting that previous relaxes have been granted within the same/similar
                      setbacks circumstances for the purposes of covered car parking and electrical substations.
               As such, the proposed development can comply with the Performance Outcome.
