Local Plan

The subject site is mapped as being within the Noosa Heads Local Plan area.

The proposed development does not trigger assessment against the Noosa Heads Local Plan Code.

No further assessment is required.

Zoning

The subject site is mapped as being within the Low density residential zone and the Environmental
management and conservation zone.

Under the current Planning Scheme requirements, it is noted that the proposed works are Accepted
development subject to requirements within the Low density residential zone. It is considered that the
proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the zone code. A full assessment
is provided within Attachment 2 and additional discussion is provided in subsequent sections of this
report.

It is also noted that the proposed development will extend into the part of the site that is mapped as
being within the Environmental management and conservation zone. Building work not associated with
a Material Change of Use is Code assessable development within the zone.

The purpose of the Environmental management and conservation zone is to provide for the protection
and maintenance of areas that support one or more of the following:

         Biological diversity;
         Ecological integrity;
         Naturally occurring landforms; or
         Coastal processes.

It is considered that the proposed development will not have any adverse impact on any biological or
ecological values, naturally occurring landforms or coastal processes.

Specifically, it is noted that:

         The site is not mapped as being within a biodiversity area;
         The proposal will not result in the loss of, or damage to, existing vegetation on site;
         The proposal is for above ground building works only and, therefore, will not have any impact
          on naturally occurring landforms or coastal processes; and
         The new building works encroach within the Environmental management and conservation
          zone by a comparable amount as do the existing decks and, therefore, there will not be any
          additional impacts as compared to existing development on site.
