Erroneous and Misleading Public Signs

The public notice signs contains misleading statements + data. See Attachment 4
sign artwork. The implied meaning would assume all proposed Lots meet these standards,
however this is not so:

A. Front Setbacks are shown as Front 7m (min)

- only Lot 1 achieves Front 7m – and this should be revised to 10m
10m is compliant with Noosa Council plan for Multiple housing Type 4 Conventional for 3+
storeys is 10m, not 6 or 7 m.1
Lot 1 features 12 such dwellings, so adjustment to the setback to 10m would seem
reasonable.
- Lot 2 actual Front setback shows 6m and is misrepresented by signage
- Lot 3 actual front setback is not shown and is misrepresented by signage


B. Rear setback are shown as 50m (min)
- Lot 1 only achieves Rear setback of 50 m2 by incorporating a neighbouring boundry and
wildlife corridor. If a true measurement to the Lot#27 boundary was applied then NONE
of the 12 units achieve the stated Rear setback of 50 m2. This is significantly
misrepresented by signage

- Lot 2 does not achieve Rear setback of 50 m2, it is closer to 2m to boundary line – this is
significantly misrepresented by signage
- Lot 3 does not achieve Rear setback of 50 m2, it is closer to 2m to boundary line – this is
significantly misrepresented by signage


C. Site coverage states > 15%
At a quick glance this statistic implies building area on each Lots. This implies a smaller
footprint than is actually true for the total site and each lot. Minimum site cover is 31%
building area on Lot 1.

Misrepresented by signage ‘Site Coverage’
- Total Floor area is = 53% for 3 lots (9,507 m, divided by total Lot27 area 18020.57m)
- Lot 1 area per proposed lot size is 31.43%
- Lot 2 area per proposed lot size is 34.74%
- Lot 3 per proposed lot size is 51.87%
