Dear Jack
Amended Early Referral Agency Response - Refusal
Planning Act 2016
I refer to your application and advise that Council, as an early referral agency for the
application, completed its assessment of the application on 7 January 2026. You are advised
that Council refused the application. Reasons for refusal are detailed below.
1. APPLICATION DETAILS
Application No. ERR25/0007
Street Address: 67 Wyuna Drive, Noosaville Qld 4566
Real Property Description: Lot 33 on N10575
Planning Scheme: Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020)
2. TYPE OF DEVELOPMENT
The applicant seeks the following type of development approval:
• Early Referral Agency Response for a Dwelling house (Height).
3. REASONS FOR REFUSAL
Council decided to refuse the application for the following reasons:
1. The proposal does not comply with Overall Outcomes 6.3.1.2 (2) (c) of the Low Density
Residential Zone Code as the development does not make a positive contribution to the
streetscape and does not maintain the low density and low scale character of the zone.
2. The proposal does not comply with Acceptable outcomes AO7.1 and corresponding
Performance Outcome PO7 of the Low Density Residential Zone Code as:
a. The proposed lift structure and associated building elements height of 9.5 metres
(measured from 2.5m AHD) is not consistent with development within the
surrounding area nor does it complement the landform of the site. The
encroachment worsens the perception of building height and scale when viewed
from the neighbouring and low-rise character of the surrounding area;

b. The application failed to demonstrate compliance with PO7 of the Low Density
Residential Zone Code. The applicant did not reduce the lift structure height or
provide clear delineation of natural ground and finished floor levels, preventing
accurate assessment of building height, bulk, and scale.
c. The design does not respond to site landform or contribute positively to the
streetscape. The lift shaft and massing appear as a vertical addition out of scale
with surrounding dwellings.
d. The massing and lift structure do not respect the scale of surrounding vegetation
and would interrupt the vegetated skyline characteristic of the locality.
4. REPRESENTATIONS ABOUT EARLY REFERRAL AGENCY RESPONSE
Not applicable.
5. OTHER DETAILS
