               2.     BACKGROUND
               A development approval for a new surf club was issued on 19 October 2017. This approval has
               been acted on and a new building was constructed in 2019, with the associated car park and
               landscaping
               An application for a minor change was approved on 21 May 2020 amending condition 8 relating to
               acoustic requirements for the Sunshine Beach Surf Club (Surf Club).
               3.     ASSESSMENT
               3.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
               Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
               statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
               •    State Planning Policy;
               •    South East Queensland Regional Plan;
               •    Planning Regulation 2017;
               •    The Noosa Plan 2006; and
               •    Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020).
               3.2. Statutory Process
               The applicant has requested to make a minor change to a development approval under s78 of the
               Planning Act 2016. An application for a minor change to a development approval can only be made
               in circumstances where a change would constitute a ‘minor change’.
               The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to
               constitute a minor change on the grounds that:
               •    the development would not result in substantially different development as the proposal does
                    not dramatically change the built form or introduce new or increased impacts;
               •    the change does not include prohibited development;
               •    the change would not require the application to be referred to an additional referral agency or
                    cause a referral agency to have regard to new matters prescribed by regulation;
               •    where the original application was code assessable, the change would not cause the
                    application to become impact assessable.
               3.3. Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
               The original application was lodged and assessed under the now superseded (the Noosa Plan
               2006). Pursuant to s81 of the Planning Act 2017, Council must consider the planning scheme in
               effect when the original development application was lodged, however Council may give weight to
               the Noosa Plan 2020 being the planning scheme in effect at the time the minor change application
               was lodged.

                                                                                                      Page 4 of 8
