6.0 State Assessment

6.1 State interests
6.1.1 State Planning Policy

Under the State Planning Policy the site is mapped as being in a Bushfire Hazard Area. This aspect
is generally reflected in the Planning Scheme. The proposed development is located clear of mapped
triggers and no further assessment is required.



7.0      Conclusion
Noosa Care Incorporated are seeking approval to change 13/0030.01 to provide an additional 12
beds in a new purpose designed building on site. The new building is to replace the existing ‘Kauri
Lodge’ building fronting Topaz Street which is run down and outdated.

The building has been designed to comply with current standards for aged care whilst
complementing the existing building on site and Cooroy country town character. The areas of non-
compliance relating to height and building area are considered minor and have been appropriately
addressed.

The application is recommended to be considered favourably by Council.
