PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                  10 NOVEMBER 2020


The intent of this specific outcome is unclear but it is understood that this requirement is a historical
one, when boat lifting devices were visually quite substantial. The types of floating boat lifting
devices have changed over time and there are a number of devices now that are more discrete in
their design. The current Floating Pontoon or Mattress type boatlifting device sit approximately
300mm-400mm above water level when not containing a boat and as such is reasonably
unobtrusive. In this instance the boat lifting device is attached to the jetty walkway and is located
in behind the jetty head and will not impact on views from the waterway or be visually prominent
on the waterway.
This issue has been raised with Council’s Strategic Planning team for consideration in future
amendments to the Noosa Plan 2020.
Relocation of kayak access steps to the jetty
The proposed relocation of the kayak access steps raises no planning or engineering issues.
It is recommended that Council agree to change the approved plans table to reference the new
design plans and to read as follows:
  Plan No.     Rev.   Plan/Document Name                                                  Date

Condition 6
No boatlifting devices are to be attached or moored at the jetty structure for the purpose of elevating
a vessel above the water without Council approval.
Applicant’s Request
It is proposed that Condition 6 be deleted. Condition 1 specifies that the jetty must be built in
accordance with the approved (revised) plans, including the proposed jet ski dry storage pontoon.
As such, any additional structures fitted to the jetty would not comply with the approval. Therefore,
the requirement of Condition 6 is not necessary.
Assessment of Request
As the boat lifting device in this instance is recommended for approval it is recommended that the
condition be amended to reflect that only 1 boatlifting device is approved as per the approved plans
of development.
