                 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;

                 ABN 97.969.214.121                                                                PO Box 141

                 [email protected]                                                           07 5329 6500
                                                                                                           Page 1 of 2

                        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
