                          as Lot 2 on RP65319 Parish of Weyba
         Applicant:       Pam & Roger Lever

          6       Development Assessment
                  The Noosa Plan includes the site in the Noosaville locality and provides the site with an Attached
                  Housing zone.   The assessment table for the Attached Housing zone indicates that a Multiple
                  Housing - Type 2 - Duplex is code assessable development.
                  It is noted that the site is similar to the surrounding area however is differentiated from the
                  surrounding area under the Noosa Plan in terms of height and population density. The Noosa Plan
                      b) do not exceed a building height of —
                      i, for the Attached Housing Zone 2 storeys unless located on property with frontage to the
                      following streets: -
                         - Russell St, William St and Howard St, or Weyba Rd, James St and Albert St north of their
                         intersections with Elizabeth St, where they are not to exceed a maximum building height of
                         3 storeys;
                  The site and the adjoining site to the west do not have frontage to the above streets and therefore
                  have a height of 2 storeys and 8 metres compared to the surrounding properties which have a height
                  of 3 storeys and 12 metres. The Noosa Plan further indicates a population density of 700 persons per
@                 hectare for the site which is less than that previously permitted under the superseded scheme.

                          Extract Noosa Plan
                  As illustrated by the above extract of the Noosa Plan, only two sites including the subject site are not
                  able to be developed for three storey units and are disadvantaged by the provisions of the Noosa
                  Plan.  Advice from Councils Manager of Strategic Planning Ms Rowena Skinner advised that this
                  differentiation of the sites appeared to be a mistake in the scheme and that it should have the same
@                 development rights as the surrounding Attached Housing precinct.
                  Again the provisions of the new scheme penalise the development of the site.
                  It is noted that the applicant could lodge a development application under the superseded scheme
                  however the units have been designed in accordance with the provisions of the Noosa Plan (except in
                  relation to height and density) and the time frame under the superseded scheme is much faster.
                  A comparison of the proposal against the requirements of the Noosaville Locality Code, the
                  Residential Uses Code, Noosaville Attached Housing Code and the Landscaping Code is detailed in
                  Annexure C, D, E and F.        As indicated above, separate applications for Operational Works
                  Landscaping and Engineering works will be lodged with Council.

                  6.1     Overlays
                  Two Overlays are relevant for the subject site and include:
                              «   Natural Hazard: Landslide & Flooding Overlay - Flood Hazard Area
                               *  Natural Hazard: Bushfire & Acid Sulphate Soils - High Potential Acid Sulphate Area.
                  A comparison of the proposal against these Overlays is included in Annexure G.
