1.0         PREAMBLE

In relation to the abovementioned Development Approval TPC 2553, originally granted by Council on 13 August 1993, on
behalf of Roger and Carolyn Noakes, I hereby make a change application pursuant to Section 78 of the Planning Act 2016.

In support of this request, please find attached the following documentation to facilitate Council’s assessment:

      •   DA Form 5 - Change Application Form and Landowner’s Consent.
      •   Design Plans by Suncoast Building Design included at Appendix A.

Payment of Council’s prescribed assessment fee for an application of this nature will be settled upon receipt of Council’s
invoice and reference number.

2.0        APPROVAL HISTORY

On the 13 August 1993, Council issued approval for a Duplex Dwelling (Council’s Reference: TPC 2553), being a two (2) storey
residential structure comprising living, dining, and primary bedroom on the lower level, with the upper level featuring two
(2) secondary bedrooms. Covered car parking was approved in the form of two (2) single garages facing the street and
integrated within the overall roof design. Two (2) visitor car parking spaces and dense screen planting were approved at the
front of the site, with a major portion of landscaping approved at the rear of the site.

3.0         PROPOSED CHANGES

The proposed Minor Change seeks changes to the lower level internal floor plan of Lot 1 / Dwelling Unit One, as follows:

      •   Conversion of single garage and dry court to double carport and reworking of entry and addition of internal sitting
          and built-in storage.
      •   Reworking of primary bedroom to include walk-in-robe, new ensuite and relocated powder room and laundry.
      •   Reworking of rear terrace to upgraded alfresco.

                                                               1

It is noted that the upper level internal floor plan of Dwelling Unit One remains unchanged, although a slight alternation is
proposed, being the sliding door opening to the balcony to be converted to a window.

The proposed minor changes are demonstrated by the Design Plans prepared by Suncoast Builidng Design included at
Appendix A.

It is important to note that the proposed additions achieve compliance with building height, density, setbacks, and site cover,
to ensure compliance with the Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020).

•     Development Approval for Dual Occupancy.

Change to the above approval description is not required.

5.0        CHANGES TO CONDITIONS

Following a detailed review of Development Approval TPC 2553, it is determined that change to the conditions of approval
is not required.

6.0        CHANGES TO APPROVED PLANS

It is requested that the Design Plans prepared by Suncoast Building Design included at Appendix A, are endorsed by Council.
The Approved Plans list should therefore be updated to include:

8.0        AFFECTED ENTITIES

There are no affected entities for this application.

9.0        CONSISTENCY ASSESSMENT

In accordance with Section 81(3) of the Planning Act 2016, the responsible entity:

This assessment finds that the proposal constitutes a Minor Change in accordance with Section 78 and Section 81 of the

        c) Dramatically change the built form in terms of scale, bulk, and appearance.
        d) Change the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended.
        e) Remove a component that is integral to the operation of the development.
        f) Significantly impact on traffic flow and the transport network, such as increasing traffic to the site.
        g) Introduce new impacts or increase the severity of known impacts.
        h) Remove an incentive or offset component that would have balanced a negative impact of the development.
        i) Impact on infrastructure provisions.
    •   The change will not cause the approval to include prohibited development.
    •   The change does not trigger referral to a referral agency, other than to the chief executive.
    •   The change does not trigger referral to extra referral agencies, other than to the chief executive.

    •   The change does not trigger a referral agency to assess the application against, or have regard to, matters prescribed
        by regulation under Section 55(2), other than matters the referral agency must have assessed the application against,
        or have had regard to, when the application was made.
    •   The change does not trigger public notification, noting the original application was not subject to public notification.

On this basis, the application is considered to follow a lawful process in making a request in accordance with Section 78 and
Section 81 of the Planning Act 2016.
