               GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING REPORT                                                  17 MARCH 2025


               5.     HUMAN RIGHTS COMPATIBILITY STATEMENT
               In developing this Report, the subject matter has been considered in accordance with the
               requirements of the Queensland Human Rights Act 2019. It is considered that the subject matter
               does not conflict with any human rights and supports a human rights approach to decision making
               by Council. Council representatives will endeavour to act and make decisions under this report in
               a manner that is compatible with human rights. This report should be read in conjunction with
               Council’s Human Rights Policy.


               6.      CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme and
               does not raise any significant issues that cannot be addressed by reasonable and relevant
               conditions.
               This application seeks a material change of use for a Short term accommodation and Food and
               Drink outlets at 203 - 207 Gympie Terrace, Noosaville. The proposed uses are consistent uses
               under the Tourist accommodation zone.
               The design of the building and site layout is generally in accordance with the Noosaville Local plan
               code Framework and Character plan which requires active frontages to develop at the corner of
               Thomas Street and Gympie Terrace and a building form which is articulated, three storeys in height
               and address street frontages.
               Building height relating to the roof top terraces and the architectural presentation of the southern
               elevation raises some concerns. Amended plans will be requested to ensure roof top pergolas
               and terrace structures are reduced in height and bulk and that areas of blank walls provide
               additional design detail and articulation.
               Waste management for the proposal was not able to be resolved during the application
               assessment. While the applicant maintains that waste can be managed on site and collected on
               street, this was not supported by Council’s Waste Coordinator. Conditions have been included
               which will require amended plans and technical reports for approval to ensure that waste is stored
               and able to be collected on site.
               The application is recommended for approval subject to reasonable and relevant conditions.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
