               The vehicle turn paths provided suggest changes to the parking arrangement including works

               endorsed part of this approval.


               5.      CONSULTATION
               5.1. Referral Agencies
               Not Applicable
               5.2. Internal Council Referrals
               The application was forwarded to the following internal Council officers for review and/or comment:
               •       Senior Development Engineer, Development Assessment
               •       Senior Environment Officer, Development Assessment – as conditioned.
                       The application material, including Architectural plan set (Twohill & James) indicatively
                       shows proposed landscaping, including street trees and, demonstrating the proposal
                       generally meets the requirements of the Landscape code and compliance with PO15 of the
                       Medium Impact Industry Zone Code.
                       Twelve street trees within the verge (Eumundi Noosa Rd) are shown on the Master Plan
                       (Twohill & James, drawing no. MP-101, revision F).
                       Council requested (IR, 3 July 2026) a conceptual landscape plan to be provided. However,
                       the applicant did not provide a conceptual landscape plan, stating in a response to the IR
                       (Project Urban, 22 July 2026, ref:25423):
                            “…The existing frontage landscape areas, site layout and relationship to Eumundi-
                       Noosa Road are adequately identified on the previously submitted site plan. On this basis, a
                       separate conceptual landscape plan is not considered necessary or proportionate to the
                       scope of the application, noting the proposal does not involve new building work or external
                       works that would alter or reduce the existing landscaped areas…”
                       Giving due consideration to the application material and assessment in accordance with the
                       Noosa Plan, it is considered warranted to require the provision of street trees along the road
                       frontage to provide screening and reduce the bulk and scale of the development when viewed
                       from Eumundi Noosa Rd, to adequately address PO15 of the Medium Impact Industry Zone
                       Code.
                       The site is not identified as containing areas of biodiversity significance.
                       Standard conditions are recommended.
               6.      CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme and
               does not raise any significant issues that cannot be addressed by reasonable and relevant
               conditions. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
