               112002.10351 - 07/03/2002 Carport - Finalised
               132002.220053 (220053 DA) - 0/01/2002 Mod to Planning Scheme - Development Permit
               2.2. Site Description
               The subject site, located at 9 George Street, Noosaville, comprises a regular-shaped allotment
               with a frontage of approximately 23 metres and a total site area of 666.49m².
               A sewer gravity main traverses the rear portion of the site, aligned parallel to the rear boundary
               and set back approximately 4.15 metres, extending the full width of the lot.
               The site is generally level, with an average ground level of approximately 2.0 metres AHD and
               minimal variation in topography across the site and surrounding area.
               The lot is currently improved by a single detached dwelling, which is proposed to be removed as
               part of a subsequent development application.
               2.3. Surrounding Land Uses
               To the North of the subject land is a mix of dwelling types within the Medium Density Residential
               Zone, which includes some single dwellings, dual occupancies and multiple dwellings. Further to
               the north, fronting Gympie Terrace are properties within the Tourist Accommodation Zone which
               contain a mix of single dwellings, dual occupancies and multiple dwelling units, which contain a
               variety of short-term accommodation uses.
               To the north-east, Gympie Terrace functions as a key mixed-use corridor, offering a range of
               commercial, retail, and hospitality services that cater to both local residents and visitors.
               Additionally, the Noosaville Foreshore, situated within close proximity, provides significant
               recreational and open space amenities, including parklands, pedestrian pathways, and water-
               based infrastructure such as jetties and boat ramps. These surrounding land uses contribute to the
               area's amenity, accessibility, and appeal as a well-established urban environment.
               Adjoining the subject land to the south is an existing Dual Occupancy. To the south of the site
               along Mary Street are properties within the Mary Street Health and Wellbeing Precinct.
               Directly to the east, on the opposite side of George Street are two single dwellings. Further to the
               east, for the length of Ann Street are properties also in the Medium Density Residential Zone.
               The neighbouring property directly to west contains an existing Dual Occupancy and further to the
               west is land zoned for High Density Residential uses and for Tourist Accommodation.
               3.     ASSESSMENT

               Side Setbacks
               Acceptable Outcome AO12.1 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code states:

                AO12.2
                The front 6 metres of the property is landscaped open space, provided that uncovered visitor
                parking, or swimming pools protruding no more than 1 metre above the ground level, can be
                as close as 2 metres from the front boundary.

               The applicant is proposing a 1.8m side setback from the eaves to the northern and southern
               boundaries in the parts of the building that are between 4.5 metres and 7.5 metres in height and
               as such does not comply with AO12.1(b)(ii) of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code of the
               Noosa Plan 2020.
               The proposed eaves along the northern and southern elevations are 200mm wide and the
               proposed setback to the wall of these faces of the building is 2 metres.
               The proposal is therefore required to comply with corresponding Performance Outcome PO12 of
               the Medium Density Residential Zone Code, which states:

                PO12        Buildings and structures are designed and sited to:
                            a.      provide a high level of amenity to users of the subject site and adjoining premises,
                                    including provision of visual and acoustic privacy;
                            a.      not unreasonably obstruct views or cause overlooking of private open space or

                            b.      provide adequate distance from adjoining land uses;
                            c.      preserve existing vegetation that will help buffer development;

                            d.      allow for space and landscaping to be provided between buildings including
                                    adequate area at ground level for landscaping with trees, shrubs, outdoor living
                                    and utilities;
                            e.      be consistent with the predominant character of the surrounding area; and
                            f.      protect the natural character and avoid adverse impacts on ecologically important
                                    areas such as national parks, waterways and wetlands.

               The following provides an assessment against Performance Outcome PO12 of the Medium
               Density Residential Zone Code:
               The proposed southern side boundary setback of 2 metres is considered to provide an appropriate
               level of residential amenity for both occupants of the subject site and adjoining properties. Acoustic
               privacy is maintained, as this interface is not intended for active use or outdoor living purposes,
               but rather functions as a circulation space providing access to the rear of the site.
               Windows located within the stairwells are oriented toward internal hallways and do not directly
               overlook habitable rooms or private open space areas. These windows have been conditioned and
               annotated to comply with Council’s standard condition for ‘Protection of Privacy’. Additionally,
               windows associated with powder rooms along this elevation are proposed to be fitted with
               translucent glazing to further mitigate potential privacy impacts.
               The combination of the proposed built form, privacy treatments, and the functional use of the side
               setback ensures that the reduced setback will not result in unreasonable overlooking or visual
               intrusion into adjoining habitable areas. A separation distance of approximately 6 metres is
               maintained between the proposed development and existing dwellings at 7 and 13 George Street,
               which contributes to maintaining acoustic and visual privacy between properties.
               Existing vegetation along the side boundaries is limited and is not being retained. The submitted
               landscape plans show that a total of 25 x 45L Fraser Island Apple Trees and 4 x Cabbage Palms
               (advanced stock), which will help buffer the development along the side boundaries. The submitted
               plans also indicate that overall, more than 40% of the site is landscaped, with of 60% of this area
               being soft landscaping.
               The proposed built form is consistent with the established character of the streetscape, which
               includes other two-storey dual occupancies with reduced side setbacks, such as the adjoining
               development at 13 George Street (MCU18/0087 – see extract from plans in Figure 5), which has
               a roof and some walls along the southern elevation that are setback 1.5m from the property
               boundary.




                Figure 5 – Extract of Approved Plan for MCU18/0087 at 13 George Street, which shows that there are reduced
                  (1.5m) side setbacks established next door for parts of the building between 4.5 metres and 7.5 metres in
                                                                   height

               Matters relating to the protection of natural character and ecologically significant areas are not
               applicable to this assessment, as the site is not located in proximity to mapped environmental
               values such as national parks, waterways, or wetlands.


                                                                                                             Page 8 of 25

               The proposed development is considered to satisfy the relevant performance outcomes of PO12
               of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code.
               Roof Forms
               Acceptable Outcome AO19.1 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code states:

                   AO19.1
                   With the exception of Noosa Heads and Coastal Communities Local Areas, the main roof of
                   the building has a roof pitch no less than 5 degrees and has minimum 600 millimetre eaves to
                   at least 75% of the perimeter of the building.

               The applicant proposes a roof form with 600mm eaves to less than 75% of the perimeter of the
               building and therefore does not meet AO19.1 of the Medium Density Residential Zone Code.
               The proposal is therefore required to comply with corresponding Performance Outcome PO19 of
               the Medium Density Residential Zone Code, which states:

                   PO19
                   Roof forms:
                   a.     contribute positively to the local skyline;
                   b.     complement the character of the locality and the topography of the site;
                   c.     avoid box profiles/parapets; and
                   d.     do not create opportunities for overlooking the private open space or internal spaces of
                          neighbouring properties.

               The proposed roof form contributes positively to the streetscape and broader urban skyline through
               the articulation of the building’s façade along George Street. This is achieved by incorporating
               generous eave projections, with the majority extending to 600mm, which enhances visual depth
               and shadowing. Additionally, the inclusion of 200mm eaves to the rest of the front façade along
               with a 5-degree roof pitch effectively mitigates the appearance of a box-like profile, promoting a
               more refined and contextually responsive architectural expression. The proposed roof form
               compliments the character of the locality by

               The plans address the inclusion of large trees along the northern, southern and eastern
               boundaries, including a range of shrub and ground cover species. Two street trees have been
               provided in the verge.
               Vegetation removal including two mature Eucalypts is required due to the infrastructure constraints
               of the site and the requirement for the filling of the entire Lot.
               Large eucalypt species ‘Corymbia tesselarris’ have been substituted into the frontage landscape
               in place of palm trees ‘Livistona australis’ and will in time replace the existing Eucalypts that will
               be lost to the development.
               5.      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. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.

                      Nature and Extent of Approved Use
               4.     The approved development consists of a Dual occupancy.
                      Built Form and Development Appearance
               5.     All air conditioning units or other mechanical equipment must be fully enclosed or screened
                      such that they are not visible from the street frontages nor adjoining properties.
               6.     All units where adjoining an external residential allotment are to screen and batten air-
                      conditioning units to assist with noise mitigation.
                                                                                                  Page 11 of 25

               7.     All deck and balcony areas above ground floor must not be fully enclosed by permanent
                      fixtures such as shutters, louvres, glass panelling or the like.
               8.     The development must use muted environmental colour tones that blend with the natural
                      environment.
                      Building Height
               9.     The maximum height of the development must not exceed 8 metres above the natural and
                      finished ground levels.
               10.    Certification must be submitted to Council from a Licensed Surveyor which certifies that the
                      buildings do not exceed the maximum height requirement of this Decision Notice.
                      Performance Bond
               11.    Security in the form of a cash bond or trading bank guarantee to the sum of $10,000 must
                      be submitted to Council, to secure performance of all conditions of this approval, prior to pre-
                      start meeting. The cash bond or trading bank guarantee will be returned on performance of
                      the conditions of approval less any costs incurred by Council in respect of enforcing
                      performance of this permit. Council reserves the right to call upon the bond or guaranteed
                      sum to effect compliance with conditions.
                      Protection of Privacy
               12.    To ensure privacy is protected between adjoining properties, the windows located on the
                      upper level northern building faces of Unit 1 must either:
                      a.      have a minimum windowsill height or 1.7 metres above floor level;
                      b.      be fitted with translucent glazing; or
                      c.      be fitted with a fixed external screen.
               13.    To ensure privacy is protected between adjoining properties, the windows located on the
                      upper level southern building faces of Unit 2 must either:
                      a.      have a minimum windowsill height or 1.7 metres above floor level;
                      b.      be fitted with translucent glazing; or
                      c.      be fitted with a fixed external screen.
               14.    As shown on the Approved Plans, the upper-level terraces located on the western building
                      face of Units 1 & 2 are to include fixed external screens positioned in such a way to obscure
                      direct views into the habitable room windows or private open space areas of the adjoining
                      property. Any fixed external screen(s) must not extend more than 50% of the length of the

                      Works within Road Reserve/Reinstatement
               15.    Safe pedestrian and vehicle access on all streets in the vicinity of the development must be
                      maintained at all times. Should footpath/road closures be necessary to carry out construction
                      works, Council’s Engineering Officer must be notified prior to the proposed closure and all
                      requirements complied with.
               16.    All frontage works must match neatly with existing road and verge/footpath features.
                      Additional works beyond the frontage may be required to provide an acceptable transition to
                      existing road and verge/footpath profiles.
               17.    The verge is to be modified such that the maximum crossfall for the verge is 5%, except in
                      the location of a pathway where the maximum crossfall is to be 2.5%.
               18.    Electrical conduits or other services proposed to be installed within existing and proposed
                      road reserves under existing sealed carriageways, concrete pathways, concrete/sealed
                      driveways or significant vegetation must be installed by boring. Trenching is not permitted,
                      unless specifically approved by Council.
                      Pathways
               19.    All pathways must be constructed in accordance with the following requirements:
                      a.      All footpath/cycleway must comply with Council’s Standard Drawing SEQ R-065.
                      b.      Provision must be made for disabled access at all kerb crossings associated with
                              pathways, in accordance with Council's current standards.
                      c.      All paths must have a slip resistant surface.
                      d.      Expansion and contraction joints must provide a flush finish. Installation of joints by
                              saw cutting is preferred to ensure a smooth ride for cyclists.
                      e.      The required work includes any modifications to ensure the footpath finishes flush with
                              all existing service covers and the like, or alternatively these services are raised or
                              altered, so as not to create a pedestrian safety hazard.
               20.    Pathways must:
                      a.      terminate in a manner that ensures smooth transition to existing surfaces for public
                              safety.
                      b.      be designed and constructed to comply with the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA),
                              Access to Premises Standard, Austroads and relevant sections of AS1428 Design for
                              access and mobility.
                      Site Access and Driveways
               21.    Driveway crossovers must be constructed in accordance with council’s Standard Drawings
                      RS-049, RS-050 and RS-051 and any associated addendum.
               22.    Any existing unnecessary or redundant property accesses must be removed, and the kerb,
                      footpath and verge area reinstated to match the existing footpath and/or verge treatments.
                      Grassed verge areas to be reinstated must be provided with 100 mm topsoil and grass seed
                      or turf, and must be maintained by the developer until established.
               23.    The following must be complied with during the construction of the required
                      crossover/driveway:
                      a.      The driveway surfacing must consist of either an approved hot mixed asphaltic
                              concrete or patterned/plain concrete.
                      b.      The driveway must be constructed so as not to concentrate stormwater runoff onto
                              neighbouring properties.
                      c.      Underground service conduits for water supply, electricity and any other services must
                              be provided as part of the access driveway


                                                                                                      Page 18 of 25

Page 19

                      d.      Where there is an existing pedestrian path, a matching crossfall must be provided for
                              the driveway on the alignment of the path, for the full width of the path.
                      e.      The property access must be located a minimum of 1m clear of existing power poles,
                              streetlights or other signage. The developer is responsible for any necessary relocation
                              of existing services to provide this clearance and must contact the relevant service
                              authorities and comply with their requirements in relation to these works.
                      Earthworks and Retaining Walls
               24.    All earthworks shall be undertaken in accordance with the provisions of AS 3798 Guidelines
                      on Earthworks for Commercial and Residential Development, with geotechnical testing
                      undertaken in accordance with Section 8 of the Standard, and to a minimum of ‘Level 1’ as
                      defined in Appendix B. Test results as required by AS 3798, and a certificate of quality and
                      uniformity of fill shall be provided by a RPEQ and submitted to Council prior to Council signing
                      the Plan of Survey.
               25.    All earthworks and associated batters/retaining structures, both above and below ground
                      level, both temporary and permanent, must be contained entirely within the subject site
                      unless written permission from the respective landowner(s) is provided to Council.
               26.    Fall protection must be provided to retaining walls that are over 1m high.
               27.    Slope and batters are a maximum grade of:
                      a.      1 in 6 where in proximity to waterbodies
                      b.      1 in 4 for grassed areas.
                      c.      1 in 3 for planted areas.
                      d.      1 in 2 for combined structural engineering and planting solutions.
                      Stormwater Drainage
               28.    Appropriate scour protection must be provided at the outlet of all stormwater pipes including
                      temporary outlets.
               29.    Works associated with this permit must not adversely impact on the existing drainage
                      conditions on other properties (e.g. by blocking or interfering with natural overland flows).
               30.    Construction of all internal stormwater drainage works must comply with the relevant
                      section/s of Australian Standard AS/NZS 3500.3.
               31.    Prior to the completion of the development, all site surfaces must be effectively stabilised
                      using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation and which will continue
                      to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium- to long-term (refer to E&SC Advisory Notes).
                      For the purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does
                      not, or is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion
                      or lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
                      Erosion and Sediment Control
               32.    Prescribed Water Contaminants (as defined in Schedule 10 of Environmental Protection
                      Regulation 2019) must not be released from the site or to waters within the site, or be likely
                      to be released should rainfall occur, unless all reasonable and practicable measures are
                      taken to prevent or minimise the release and concentration of contamination.
               33.    Sediment and erosion control measures must be in place prior to works commencing. If such
                      measures are not in place or are not satisfactory, “on the spot” fines may be issued. Such
                      fines can be issued if sediments from the site are found to enter or have the potential to enter
                      Council’s stormwater system, natural waterways, any downstream stormwater filtration
                      system or adversely impacting on other properties. The sediment and erosion control design
                      and measures have NOT been approved, it is the site's Supervising Engineer who is
                      responsible for ensuring that the sediment and erosion control measures have:


                                                                                                            Page 19 of 25

                      a.      Been duly designed by an RPEQ or CPESC and constructed in accordance with "best
                              practise" methods,
                      b.      Been revised by an RPEQ or CPESC to address the issues raised by changes in the
                              projected construction schedule and/or methods,
                      c.      Been revised to address predicted rainfall events, and
                      d.      Achieve the desired environmental outcomes.
               34.    Council may request further controls to be installed should the implemented measures be
                      found inefficient.
               35.    The erosion and sediment control measures must be designed, installed and maintained in
                      accordance with the supervising engineer instructions and the current best practice
                      standards * (Refer to Advisory Note).
               36.    The developer must ensure non-essential exposure of soil is prevented by restricting the
                      extent of disturbance and minimising the duration of soil exposure to adverse weather
                      conditions and effectively turf, cover or stabilise any disturbed area without delay and prior
                      to rainfall occurring.
               37.    The developer must ensure sediment does not leave the site or enter onto adjoining
                      properties or Council’s drainage system due to surface runoff or on tyres of vehicles and/or
                      machinery. It is essential to implement appropriate approved erosion and sediment control
                      measures throughout the site during all phases of construction including vehicle shakedown
                      pad/grid (or similar) at the access to the construction site. Where sediments or other
                      contaminants are deposited on a road, they must be removed so as not to enter Council’s
                      drainage system or waterways.
               38.    Prior to the completion of the development and commencement of use, all site surfaces must
                      be effectively stabilised using methods which have achieved effective short-term stabilisation
                      and which will continue to achieve effective stabilisation in the medium to long-term. For the
                      purpose of this condition, an effectively stabilised surface is defined as one that does not, or
                      is not likely to result in visible evidence of soil loss caused by sheet, rill or gully erosion or
                      lead to sedimentation, or lead to water contamination.
                      Vegetation Clearing
               39.    Removal of trees and vegetation must be undertaken by a qualified person* and must
                      include:
                      a.      No damage to vegetation for retention.
                      b.      Legal disposal of all removed vegetation and debris.

                      Fauna Management
               40.    Prior to felling or pruning, all trees are to be checked for wildlife (i.e. koalas, possums, birds
                      etc.) If wildlife is present, the tree vegetation must not be felled or pruned until the wildlife
                      has left vegetation or has been relocated by a qualified fauna spotter catcher.
                      *(Refer to Advisory Note)
                      Landscape Works
               41.    Landscape works must be supervised, undertaken and certified by qualified persons*. All
                      works must be completed in accordance with this Decision Notice.
                      *(Refer to Advisory Note)
               42.    Where damage occurs to any Council asset as a result of the development works, it must be
                      repaired immediately where it creates a hazard that presents risk to person or property. Other
                      damage must be repaired prior to completion of works.



                                                                                                        Page 20 of 25
