    c) the new carport is located 800mm below the extension and will flood by 50-100mm in a 1%AEP
       storm event; however, is still elevated and will drain by gravity means;
    d) the existing building on Lot 1 is elevated and allows water to flow beneath, with the existing
       driveway not adversely impacting upon other premises, and no new works are being proposed;
       and
    e) no earthworks are proposed, and the existing development does not cause ponding on site or
       nearby land, has not increased flooding or affect the safety or use of any other land, and does
       not adversely affect the flow of water in the overland flow path.

In my opinion, the proposed development complies with specific outcome O16, and does not offend
any of the other specific outcomes for the Detached Housing Zone. Further, the proposed
development is consistent with the overall outcomes and purpose of the Noosa Heads Locality Code.

Reconfiguring a Lot Code
Under part 14.181.1, the overall outcomes are the purpose of the Reconfiguring a Lot Code. Having
regard to part 14.181.2, the following comments are made about the most relevant overall outcomes
(adopting the same numbering):
   a) the lot sizes and dimensions are appropriate for their intended use;
   b) maintain the same residential land uses in the locality;
   c) the proposed lots have suitable, safe and appropriate access;
   d) the proposed development, including the existing buildings and works will not have any
       impact on the existing drainage line or other environmentally sensitive area;
   e) the proposed development does not impact upon the road network;
   f) …;
   g) the proposed lots will not have any impact on the natural environment and landscape, and will
       not worsen the risk to people and property having regard to stormwater flows during a 1%AEP
       event (refer comments above);
   h) the proposed allotments can be readily serviced in an effective and efficient manner;
   i) …
   j) …
   k) the orientation of the allotments is set given the minor nature of the development and the
       location, with buildings already established on the land;
   l) the proposed development is entirely consistent with the developed character of its
       neighbourhood;
   m) … ; and
   n) … .

Having regard to the above, the proposed development is entirely consistent with the overall
outcomes and purpose of the Reconfiguring a Lot Code.

With respect to Table 14-66, the following comments are made about the most relevant specific
outcomes:
