Letter to Noosa Council - 20 Mitti Street

these locations is also significantly restricted by flooding generally having a greater duration and
severity when compared to the subject land.

In this case the built form exists and there is no added risk to people and property caused by the
reconfiguration. The proposed development either complies with or meets the intent of the planning
scheme. In my opinion, given the extension to the dwelling is consistent with the planning scheme
then the reconfiguration should also be allowed.

Should it be found that there is conflict with the planning scheme, which in my opinion is minor and
of a technical nature only, there are grounds that warrant approval, including:

1. The circumstances are unusual with the site having been developed with the level of risk to people
   and property from a 1%AEP storm event being minimal, and the proposed reconfiguration does
   not change the level of risk.

2. The proposed development makes use of available residential land in a highly desirable location
   and makes effective and efficient use of existing services and infrastructure.

3. The proposed development is not out of character, with the area of the allotments being adequate
   for the intended use and maintain a high level of residential amenity.

4. The proposed development is consistent with the reasonable expectations of local residents and
   is of benefit to the general community.

The applicant also requests that should the recommendation be for refusal, that the application be
decided by the Council.

Should you have any questions with respect to the above, please contact me.

Yours faithfully
