              That Council note the report by the Senior Development Planner to the
              Planning & Environment Committee Meeting dated 11 June 2024 regarding
              Application No. MCU23/0101 for a Development Permit for Material Change
              of Use - Short-term accommodation situated at 561 Gympie Kin Kin Rd, Kin
              Kin and:
                  A. Refuse the application for the following reasons.
                 1. The proposal is not consistent with 3.2.6 (Agriculture and Rural Based
                    Activities) of the Strategic Intent because:
                        a. It does not protect agricultural land from encroachment from urban
                            and rural residential development and would compromise
                            productivity.
                        b. Short-term accommodation is not an ancillary rural industry which
                            supports production, investment and diversification.
                 2. The proposal is not consistent with the Purpose and Overall Outcomes of
                    Rural Activity Code as:
                    a. It is not a rural activity operated in a sustainable manner which
                         conserves the productive characteristics of rural land or protects the
                         amenity of surrounding premises.
                    b. Short-term accommodation is not an innovative and sustainable
                         agricultural enterprise.
                    c. Short-term accommodation does not support local production of food
                         and beverage products.
                 3. The proposal does not comply with Performance Outcomes PO3 and PO4
                    of the Rural Activities Code as it is not consistent with the zone, locality
