PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                      10 MARCH 2020


               12.4. the development does not comply with Overall Outcomes 6.4.1.2 (3)(c) (iii) &
                     3(f) of the Major Centre Zone Code as it does not reflect appropriate
                     subtropical design and is not distinctively recognisable as being Noosa Style;
                     and
               12.5. the stormwater management of the site does not comply with the Water Quality
                     and Drainage Code Outcomes PO7 and PO11.
        13.    There is no significant need for the proposed retail and the proposal fails to advance
               the priority sectors envisaged by Noosa’s Local Economic Plan.
        14.    The proposed uses are clearly defined by The Noosa Plan and the applicant’s
               proposed use definitions are unnecessary, inappropriate and have the potential to
               cause confusion.
        15.    There are no discretionary matters which would warrant approval of the development
               proposal.
        16.    For the aforesaid reasons, approval of the development proposal would not advance
               the purpose of the Planning Act 2016.
B.      Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
