Dear Sir/Madam

RE: LODGEMENT OF A CHANGE APPLICATION
Minor Change to a Development Approval for a Multiple Dwelling (4 units) TPC852 over 15
Katharina Street, Noosa Heads described as Lot 0 on BUP3942

I refer to the above minor change application lodged with Council and as discussed with Mr Glen
Conforti wish to provide the following further information about the proposal.

As previously detailed, the applicant seeks approval to utilise an existing area of the common
property for storage of items such as surf equipment and bikes so these items do not have to be
carried to the upper floor levels of the units. It is noted that existing units have no ground floor
storage with two of the garages being relatively small with limited space for storage. The existing
building also has no lift which results in bulky items required to be carried up the existing narrow and
curved stairwell to the upper levels.

                                                         The applicant has confirmed that the area is not
                                                         to be rented out and is only for storage.

                                                         It is noted that the area sought to be utilised
                                                         appears to have been enclosed as part of the
                                                         original construction as evidenced by the
                                                         existing     pathway,   landscaping,   bronze
                                                         anodized windows and matching materials
                                                         detailed in figure 1.

As detailed in the submitted application, the proposal exceeds Gross Floor Area requirements as
follows:

    Criteria                             Proposal
    2006 Noosa Plan
    Gross Floor Area – 237.6m2           316.18m2 - existing units plus 43 m2 additional area
                                         proposed.
                                         359m2 total

A recent review of the proposal notes that S44.1 of the Residential Uses Code of the current Noosa
Plan requires a weatherproof storage area of at least 12.6m3 to be provided for Multiple Dwellings:

       S44.1 A weatherproof storage area of at least 12.6m3 (having a height of at least 2.1m and an area
       of 6m2 ) is provided within or attached to each dwelling unit. This storage space will not contribute
       to GFA providing it can be directly accessed from outside the building and does not exceed an area
       of 7m2

The existing unit complex comprises 4 units and therefore each unit is entitled to 7m2 with a total
area of 28m2 not included as GFA. The applicant has modified the proposal plans and seeks
approval for 28m2 of storage area within the existing undercroft area. This area will be divided into
separate storage areas for the units.

As detailed previously this area does not impact on the visual amenity of the building or surrounds
and will be used for storage only.


Please contact me if you require any further information and/or clarification.



Yours faithfully,




Nadine Gorton
