ORDINARY MEETING MINUTES                                                          3 APRIL 2014




         7.     The applicant has not satisfactorily demonstrated the development will not
                adversely impact on Aboriginal cultural heritage values.
         8.     The development is located outside areas planned for urban infrastructure and
                will adversely impact on the existing trunk infrastructure network.
         9.     The development provides insufficient social infrastructure to meet the needs of
                its future residents.
         10.    The development would use limited remaining treatment capacity at Noosa’s
                sewage treatment plant at the opportunity cost of planning for future
                development in the Noosa area.
         11.    The development will have unacceptable impacts on Walter Hay Drive’s
                function and role as Noosa’s preferred primary entrance route.
         12.    The development will have undesirable impacts on the scenic amenity and
                natural character of the area and the inter-urban break experienced along
                Walter Hay Drive.
         13.    The development’s residential intensity significantly exceeds reasonable
                expectations for existing local residents and adjacent visitor accommodation
                businesses and will unduly impact on the area’s amenity.
         14.    The development poses unacceptable risks to people and property due to
                bushfire hazard.
         15.    The development will place residents at unacceptable exposure levels to
                mosquitos, biting midges and associated arboviruses, the management of
                which is likely to result in financial impositions on Council.
         16.    Concurrence Agency conditions directed by the Department of Environment &
                Heritage Protection significantly impact on the development’s functionality and
                would result in a substantially different development. The conditions require
                significant changes, which would also be likely to cause additional persons to
                make submissions objecting to the changes if circumstances allowed.
         17.    The applicant has not demonstrated sufficient grounds exist to overcome the
                development’s conflicts with relevant assessment instruments.
    B.   Refuse that part of the application that falls within the Sunshine Coast Council local
         government area, as directed by the Sunshine Coast Council in its concurrence
         agency response dated 5 February 2014.
