Dear Sir/Madam,


RE:       LODGEMENT OF CHANGE TO A DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION
Material Change of Use – Development Permit for a Material Change of Use – Type 1 Warehouse
(Self Storage) and Operational Works (Advertising Device) over land situated at 64-66 Rene Street,
Noosaville and described as Lot 280 on SP104321: MCU 14/0049


On behalf of our client Sharpe Enterprises, Martoo Consulting submitted a development application
(Council Reference MCU14/0049) to Noosa Council seeking approval for an extension to an existing
self storage complex and Operational Works approval for General Signage on the above site within
the Noosaville Industrial Estate.
                                                              th
This application was lodged electronically with Council on 26 June 2014 and was considered properly
            st                                                                      th
made on 1 July 2014. Council has since issued an Information Request on 9 July 2014 which
outlined a request for additional information relating to landscaping, car parking, storm water, waste
and signage.

During discussions with Council officers regarding the information request, it was revealed that
Council did not appear to be any records for the conversion of the existing industrial building on site to
a warehouse (self storage facility). The applicant was unaware that an application was required
however Council staff advised that an application to change the use of the existing building for
warehouse uses was required.

In accordance with section 355 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009, we therefore seek to change the
existing application lodged with Council and request approval for the conversion of the existing
building to Type 1 Warehouse (self storage) as well as approval for a new purpose built building. The
application is therefore changed in the following manner:

    •    Revised plans that detail the existing building and proposed building for use as a Type 1
         Warehouse (self storage) facility;
    •    Landscape plans for the entire site illustrating compliance with scheme provisions;
    •    Revised plans illustrating car parking and maneuvering on site; and
    •    Stormwater drainage plans.

These plans are to replace the existing plans submitted with the application and considered in
conjunction with the existing planning statement submitted.
