PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                   9 OCTOBER 2018


                 details on the location of external fill/dump sites, the haulage route, type of
                 vehicle to be utilised during filling operations and frequency of usage. NB any
                 damage to the existing road system as a result of haulage operations shall be
                 fully repaired at the applicant’s expense
                 it is acknowledged that the preliminary Construction Management Plan will be a
                 draft document requiring finalisation upon appointment of the Principal
                 Contractor employed to construct the works and a final document will be
                 required to be submitted at the Pre-Start Meeting for the project.
           Damage to Services and Assets
     56.   Any damage caused to existing services and assets as a result of the development
           works must be repaired at no cost to the asset owner at the following times:
                 where the damage would cause a hazard to pedestrian or vehicle safety,
                 immediately; or
                 where otherwise, upon completion of the works associated with the
                 development.
     57.   Any repair work which proposes to alter the alignment or level of existing services
           and assets must first be referred to the relevant service authority for approval
B.   Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with the
     Planning Scheme:
     1.    There is a significant need for aged care facilities within the Noosa region and the
           proposal will in part satisfy this need.
     2.    The use is compatible with surrounding residential uses and will not significantly
           impact on the amenity of the area. Further conditions are proposed to mitigate and
           address any potential amenity impacts.
     3.    The proposal being low rise and articulated with a variety of external finishes will sit
           reasonably well within the streetscape without being overly dominant.
     4.    The proposal provides extensive landscaping to the Val Crescent frontage to screen
           the development from the street.
     5.    There are limited opportunities of appropriately zoned land for the development of
           aged care facilities and overall the proposal is a good response for this site,
           considering the Noosa Hospital opposite and Goodchap Street medical centre
           nearby.
     6.    The applicant has demonstrated that vehicles can enter and exit the Val Crescent
           driveway safely.
     7.    The development will not adversely affect the broader road network.
C.    Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
