RECOMMENDATIONS ONLY – NOT THE FINAL DECISION OF COUNCIL
GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING 15 JANUARY 2018
3 RAL17/0501 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR RECONFIGURING A LOT (1 LOT
INTO 6 RESIDENTIAL LOTS), LOCATED AT 2 DAVID LOW WAY, CASTAWAYS
BEACH
Committee Recommendation
Moved: Cr Stockwell
Seconded: Cr Jackson
That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee
Meeting dated 15 January 2018 regarding Application RAL17/0501 for a Development
Permit for Reconfiguring a Lot – (1 into 6 residential lots), situated at 2 David Low Way,
Castaways Beach and:
A. Refuse the application for the following reasons:
1. The proposed development is contrary to the Overall and Specific Outcomes of
the Eastern Beaches Locality Code of the Noosa Plan. The development
proposes significant clearing that is contrary to the Locality Code which requires
protection of the vegetated character and views from the David Low Way and
protection of native vegetation.
2. The proposed development is contrary to the Biodiversity code as it involves
clearing of vegetation that is mapped as Environmental Protection and Riparian
vegetation under the Noosa Plan.
3. The proposed development will result in unacceptable impacts on the visual
amenity and character of the area.
4. The applicant has not demonstrated that a compliant, safe access is able to be
provided to the site in accordance with required standards. To achieve a safe
access significant clearing of vegetation and earthworks in the road reserve is
also likely to be required.
5. The proposal is an overdevelopment of the site with the resultant development
form detrimentally affecting the environmental and amenity values of the site.
6. The proposed development represents a poor planning outcome for the site,
with the subdivision layout failing to provide street frontage for the lots and an
excessive number of lots with access via an easement. The proposed access
arrangements are likely to result in ongoing management and maintenance
issues for future residents of these lots.
B. Advise the utility service providers that there is significant vegetation within the road
reserve adjacent 2 David Low Way, Castaways Beach that requires detailed
assessment prior to installation of any services to minimise potential impacts on this
vegetation.
C. Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act
2016.
Carried.

5 MCU16/0144 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE OF
PREMISES RETAIL BUSINESS TYPE 2 SHOP AND SALON AT 1 KINGSGATE DRIVE,
TINBEERWAH
Committee Recommendation
Moved: Cr Wellington
Seconded: Cr Pardon
That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee
Meeting dated 15 January 2018 regarding Application No. MCU16/0144 for a Development
Application for Material Change of Use of Premises - Retail Business Type 2 – Shop and
Salon situated at 1 Kingsgate Drive, Tinbeerwah and defer the decision until the Ordinary
Meeting of 18 January 2018 so that a further report can be brought to Council considering
whether the existing building has the necessary building approvals.
A. Approve the application in accordance with the conditions contained in the General
Committee Agenda dated 15 January 2018.
B. Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with
the Planning Scheme:
1. The site has approval for a business use (general store) for over 2 decades and
The Noosa Plan specifically identifies the subject site for use as Retail Business
type 1 Local (General Store) which permits the sale of prepared food and dining
facilities for up to 10 people.
1. The proposal is small scale and potential amenity impacts are able to be
appropriately mitigated for nearby residents.
1. The proposed use predominantly serves a local function and affords the
Tinbeerwah community a local venue, providing an alternative to travelling to
nearby local centres.
C. Advise the applicant that they must immediately reduce the number of dining facilities
on site to no more than 10 seats, pursuant to the Noosa Plan’s definition of Retail
Business Type 2 Shop & Salon.
Carried.
