                           Stepping roofs, along with recessed balconies and deep reveals to windows
                           complement the character of the Noosa Heads locality and the sloped and
                           stepping topography of the site.

                           The site has no direct adjoining properties, other than the Reserve, Serenity Close
                           and Banksia Avenue North, so there are no issues of overlooking, loss of privacy,
                           view or access to sunlight or breezes.

                           AO20.1 “The main roof of the building has a roof pitch no less than 5 degrees
                                  and has minimum 600 millimetre eaves to at least 75% of the perimeter
                                  of the building excluding where located in:
                                  (b)    the Noosa Heads local plan area.”
                                  Proposal complies as the development is located within the Noosa
                                  Heads Locality under the Noosa Plan 2020.

                           AO20.2 “Development does not include roof top terraces.”
                                  An alternative solution is proposed for some of the lower level roofs,
                                  which are proposed to be: A roof garden on Level 4 above the West
                                  Wing Resort Rooms where upper levels look down onto these spaces;
                                  Open landscaped spaces on Level 4 above the Service Basement and
                                  Retail Tenancies; Open landscaped spaces, including the Main Pool
                                  and Kids’ Pool on Level 4 above the Car Parking areas; roof planting on
                                  Level 5 above the Covered Outdoor Pre-Function areas, Covered
                                  Outdoor Dining areas, Pool Club and Pool Cabanas.

                           AO20.3 “The total width of any parapet wall does not exceed 50% of the width of
                                  the front façade of a building.”
                                  An alternative solution is proposed for this requirement, which provides
                                  a functional response to the climatic control of the buildings. The
                                  purpose of incorporating roof overhangs in subtropical architecture is to
                                  provide shading and protection to windows and doors; however, on a 2,
                                  3 or 4 storey building, the roof overhangs are too high to perform this
                                  task. Therefore, shading and protection is proposed to be achieved by
                                  recessing doors behind the façades and having deep reveals to the
                                  windows.

                                       There are many examples and precedents for buildings in this locality
                                       that incorporate parapets; in the author’s view, the architectural design
                                       proposed for the Calile Noosa is far superior to most of the buildings in
                                       the Noosa Heads Locality.


       2.4 Safety and Amenity

               The Noosa Plan 2020 Tourist Accommodation Zone Table 6.3.4.3 Criteria for Assessment
               requires that the Safety and Amenity of the proposal have Performance Outcomes (PO)
               and / or Acceptable Outcomes (AO) as follows:

               PO21        “Development ensures that the design of the development and operation of uses:
                           (a)   provide a high level of amenity to users of the subject site; and
                           (b)   do not unreasonably impact on the amenity enjoyed by users of adjoining or
                                 nearby premises, including privacy and access to sunlight.”
                           Proposal complies.

                           AO21.1 “Buildings and structures:
