2.0 Proposal
2.1    Summary
This application seeks approval for a Development Permit for Material Change of Use and Operational
Works for Multiple Housing Type 2 (Duplex). A set of proposal plans accompany the application and
can be found in Attachment A. Attachment B contains land owner’s consent to the application.

2.2    Background / Site History

There is no record of development approval for the existing dwelling on the site. An application for
building works (Application no. 112005.573) for a garage was approved on the site on 13 April 2005.
There is no other site history relevant to the application.

3.0 Site Description
3.1     General
 5 Ventura St, SUNRISE BEACH
 Lot 114 RP132135
 Road frontage           19.2m to Ventura St and 19.0m to Margit Crescent
 Existing vegetation     Minimal peripheral landscaping associated with existing dwelling (to be
                         removed and replaced with new plantings)
 Topography              Relatively flat, falling to the street (see attached survey)
 Surrounding land uses A mix of low density residential (single detached dwellings, duplexes and
                         multiple housing)
 Zone                    Attached housing (please refer to Figure 3 over page)

The site is 705.62m2 in area and zoned Attached housing (please refer to Figure 2). The site is improved
by a two story detached dwelling house which is proposed to be removed. Vehicle access is available
to both street frontages. The site adjoins a Duplex to the north east (MCU17/0521 & OPW17/0549).
Directly to the north is a set of three town houses (defined as Multiple housing Conventional Type 4
under the scheme). The broader surrounding area contains a mix of Detached houses and higher
density Multiple housing (please refer to Figure 3 over page).

4.0 Framework for Assessment
4.1     Categorising Instruments for Statutory Assessment

For the Planning Act 2016, the following Categorising Instruments may contain Assessment
Benchmarks applicable to development applications:
   • the Planning Regulation 2017
   • the Planning Scheme for the local government area
   • any Temporary Local Planning Instrument
   • any Variation Approval.

The planning instruments relevant to this application are discussed in this report.

Assessment Benchmarks Related to the Planning Regulation 2017

The Planning Regulation 2017 (the Regulation) prescribes Assessment Benchmarks that the
application must be carried out against, which are additional or alternative to the Assessment
Benchmarks contained in Council’s Planning Scheme.

These Assessment Benchmarks are prescribed as being contained in:
   • the SEQ Regional Plan and Part E of the State Planning Policy, to the extent they are not
       appropriately integrated into the Planning Scheme; and
   • Schedule 10 of the Regulation.

State Instruments

State Planning Policy - State Planning Policy, Part E
South East Queensland Regional Plan - Urban Footprint

4.1.1 State Planning Policy
A new State Planning Policy (SPP) came into effect on 3 July 2017. No matters of state interest have
been identified as relevant to the proposal. Further assessment of the development application
against the SPP assessment benchmarks is therefore not warranted.

4.1.2 South East Queensland Regional Plan
The site is located in the Urban Footprint. The development proposal is for an urban activity in the
Urban Footprint, and there are no requirements in the State Planning Regulatory Provisions applicable
to the development proposal.

4.1.3 Referrals
Schedule 10 of the Planning Regulation 2017, sets out development which triggers referral to referral
agencies. The proposed development does not require referral.
