    STATUTORY           REQUIREMENTS:

    In accordance with Section 388 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009, in deciding a request to extend the relevant
    period, the assessment manager must only have regard to:

            a) the consistency of the approval, including its conditions, with the current laws and policies applying to fhe
                  development, including, for example, the amount and type of infrastructure contributions, or charges
                  payable under chapter 8, parts 2 and 3; and
            (b) the community's current awareness of the development approval; and
            (c) whether, if the request were refused-
                  (i) further rights to make a submission may be available for a further development application; and
                  (ii) the likely extent to which those rights may be exercised; and
            (d) the views of any concurrence agency for the approval given under section 385.


    ASSESSMENT:

    The current development approval was assessed and granted under the superseded planning scheme prior to the
    current Noosa Plan. The proposal was reviewed against the 2006 Noosa Plan provisions under the 2011 and 2014
    application for extension of the relevant period, wherein it was determined that the development form generally
    was consistent with the current requirements of the Noosa Plan and the areas of non compliance were minor.
    The current approval is therefore consistent with the current laws and policies.

    With regard to infrastructure charges it is noted that as part of previous changes to the approvals and extensions,
    infrastructure charges for missing networks have been charged.

    The Sustainable Planning Act details that the community's awareness of the proposal is to be considered in
    determining a request to extend the relevant period. The community is well aware that the site will be developed
    for units as part of the Settlers Cove project. Advertising signs and construction works have been consistently
    displayed on the site as part of sales campaigns that ensure the community is aware of the residential intent for
    the area,

    The current proposal is generally consistent with the current planning scheme requirements and policies and the
    current conditions protect the environmental considerations of the site. The general community is also well aware
    that the site has a development approval for the site. The proposed extension is considered to meet the criteria of
    the Act and the applicant therefore requests an extension of the currency period for a further two years.



    This development application has been prepared in accordance              with the Sustainable   Planning Act   2oo9 and is
    being submitted with the following attached:

              1.            The completed Council form.

             2,             Council's application fee of $2361.00 is paid by way of cheque for a total amount of $4722.00 which
                            covers this application and an application to extend 132003.220653.6
