Dear Sir/Madam
Further Advice – Development Application
I refer to your application and advise that Council wishes to provide you with further advice about the application in accordance with the provisions of the Development Assessment Rules 2017.
application details
Application No.	51983.3225.12
Street Address:	The Hastings 17/30 Hastings St Noosa Heads
Real Property Description:	GTP 1154
Planning Scheme:	The Noosa Plan (8 June 2018)
further advice
You are advised that:
Issue - Design
The proposal shows a boxed profile, and it is considered that it does not have the character of surrounding development. It is also quite visible from the adjoining pedestrian laneway. With regard to roof form, the proposal does not comply with the Probable Solution S15.1 or the corresponding Specific outcomes O15 a), b), c) or d) sought in the Noosa Heads Locality Code.  The roof form does not have pitch or include eves. The roof form and building face (particularly the east elevation) is not considered to be in keeping of the character of Noosa Heads.  Further, greater articulation with regard to line and plane and use of a mix of materials and textures is required.
Advice Required
Provide amended plans that provides for some variation and vitality with respect to building design that comply with the Specific outcomes of the Noosa Heads Locality Code. The building should include a mix of materials and texture, articulation of elevations, contribute positively and complement surrounding spaces and neighbourhood character.

Issue - setbacks
Specific outcomes O8 of the Noosa Heads Locality Code  require Buildings and other structures are appropriately designed and sited to— a) provide amenity for users of the premises as well as preserve the visual and acoustic amenity of adjoining and nearby properties; b) provide adequate distance from adjoining land uses c) preserve any existing vegetation that will buffer the proposed building; d) allow for landscaping to be provided between buildings; e) maintain the visual continuity and pattern of buildings and landscape elements.
The building is extending south on all levels, including an additional rooftop terrace area with spa.  At one point, the setback is not much greater than 0.5 metres from the boundary.  The proposed setback will compromise the amenity to neighbouring dwelling No. 16 and to some degree No 15. This includes overshadowing the northern aspect of the adjoining dwellings. Additionally, probable landscaping between buildings will be very limited.
Advice Required
Provide amended plans that comply with the Specific outcomes O8 of the Noosa Heads Locality Code.
Provide supporting evidence (eg. photographic, shadow diagrams etc.) that the amended plans will comply with this outcome.
due date for response to further advice
A response to the further advice is required by 1 September 2020.
