DF13075_Bell Allen_Permissible Change Request_251016

EXTENSION TO RELEVANT PERIOD REQUEST
Section 388 of SPA details what must be considered by the assessment manager in deciding the
request. An assessment against each criterion is provided below.

    a) Consistency of the approval with the current laws and policies

The proposed development remains consistent with the current Noosa Plan and, although a review of
the Noosa Plan has commenced, it is not expected that a new Planning Scheme will be adopted until
after the dwelling has been built or the proposed 2 year extension has expired.

    b) The community’s current awareness of the development approval

The original application was code assessable and this level of assessment would still apply if the
application were submitted in its current form. The approved development therefore remains
consistent with the current Zoning in the Noosa Plan and the community’s expectations for future
development on the site.

    c) Whether, if the request were refused-

            (i)    Further rights to make submissions may be available for a further development
                   application; and

            (ii)   The likely extent to which those rights may be exercised.

As mentioned above, if a new application were submitted for the approved development it would be
code assessable and there would therefore be no submitter rights.

    d) The views of any concurrence agency for the approval

There was no Concurrence Agency for the original approval.

In conclusion, for the reasons set out above, it is considered that there are sufficient grounds to
support a further two (2) years extension to the current approval.


CONCLUSIONS
It is considered that the proposed changes to the development remain consistent with the Noosa Plan
and satisfy the relevant tests set out in the Sustainable Planning Act 2009. Furthermore, it is considered
that the request to further extend the relevant period of the approval by another two (2) years also
warrants Council’s support:

In light of the above it is considered that this request for a permissible change and a further two (2)
year extension to the relevant period of the Material Change of Use approval MCU13/0247 until 20
January 2020 satisfies the tests of SPA and should therefore be supported by Council.

Should you have any questions with respect to the above, please do not hesitate to contact me direct.

Yours faithfully
PROJECT URBAN
