SPS Request (compiled)_251017

At no time did Mr Conforti mention or make us aware that the Advertising Devices Code was set to be
substantially amended on 28 October 2016, including amendments that would remove the “self-
assessable” provision allowing one freestanding sign per frontage. The applicant would have likely
taken a different approach to the development of the proposed pylon sign had they been made aware
of this pending change to the ‘rules’.

Our client took certain actions in respect to the proposed sign off the back of this advice from Council,
including having the sign built and making provision on site for the sign, at significant cost (circa
$50,000 for the cost of building the sign). In addition, in reliance upon advice from Council, our client
made commitments to tenants on the site regarding their entitlement to such signage. Accordingly, if
Council does not approve the proposed sign, our client will stand to suffer significant loss. It is for this
reason that the applicant has been forced to make this request for assessment under the superseded
planning scheme.

In accordance with section 29(5) of the Planning Act and section 11 of the Planning Regulation 2017
the following requisite information is provided:

   the name, residential or business address, electronic address and phone number of the person
    making the request is as follows:

    Name of Applicant         Address                               Email                      Phone

                              4558

   the address or property description of the premises is provided above;
   the applicant is asking the local government to accept, assess and decide a superseded planning
    scheme application;
   a copy of the proposed Site Plan and Sign Elevation is included at Attachment B;
   a copy of the proposed superseded planning scheme application accompanies this request at
    Attachment C; and
   the applicable fee will be paid once Council issues the request for payment.

We note that Noosa Council does not have a form for a SPS request – hence, no form has been
provided.

Proposed Development

The proposed development which is the subject of this superseded planning scheme request is a 5m
high, freestanding pylon sign fronting Walter Hay Drive. The location of the proposed sign is
identified on the accompanying Site Plan, prepared by Powe Architects (refer Attachment B). Details
of the proposed sign, including dimensions and indicative signage elements, are shown on the
accompanying Proposed Sign Elevation prepared by Metro Signs (refer Attachment B).

A more detailed description and assessment of the proposed sign is set out in the development
application material in Attachment C.

Deciding Superseded Planning Scheme Request

We note that pursuant to section 29(6) of the Act, Council must decide whether or not to agree to a
superseded planning scheme request within 30 business days after the request is received, unless
extended by agreement with the applicant.
