Cover Letter - Minor Change Application

A Town Planning Consent TPC 1984 for a multiple dwelling of 3 units was issued on 1 March
1988. At the time of application a setback relaxation was granted to Noosa Parade frontage to
4.5m and the development exceeded the maximum permissible GFA for the site by 18m2.

At the time the original application was publicly notified, 0 properly made submissions and 0 not
properly made submissions were received.

On 23 March 2011, Council approved a permissible change to allow for the construction of a roofed patio
over the rear balcony of Unit 3 (Council reference: 51987.2885.2 (TPC 1984)).


The Proposal
The proposal seeks a minor change to the approval for additions to an existing multiple dwelling comprising
of a pergola and privacy screen. The structures are proposed to be established within the private open
space area associated with Unit 1 in the northeast corner of the site.

The pergola consists of 5 x aluminium “L” shaped brackets that are each separated by 500mm and have a
length of 4.2m. The structure has a height of 2.8m, is open on all sides and unroofed. Its intent is to provide for
privacy screening and an architecture feature over the open space area.

The privacy screen is positioned along the northern side boundary and will run parallel to the existing fence.
The screen has a height of 2.8m and a length of 4m and consist of vertical battens above the existing fence.
Its intent is to obscure overlooking from the large 3 storey multiple dwelling to the north.
