GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING                                                       16 MARCH 2020


         7.     The proposed development is contrary to Overall Outcome 13.30.2(h) of the
                Natural Hazards Overlay Code as bushfire mitigation measures do not avoid or
                minimise impacts on the natural environment and ecological processes.
         8.     The proposed development is contrary to Overall Outcomes 14.157.2(b) and (d)
                and Specific Outcomes 1, 8 and 10 of the Water Sensitive Design Code as
                modelling for stormwater treatment has not included all relevant run-off areas.
         9.     Insufficient detail has been provided to demonstrate the extent and potential
                impact of the proposed height variation for the dwelling units.
         10.    The proposed development is contrary to the draft Noosa Plan provisions, which
                reinforce the current Noosa Plan’s requirements for an appropriate response to
                the site’s natural hazards and protection of the site’s environmental values
                including vegetation retention.
    B.   Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
                                                                          Carried unanimously.

         2.     The proposed development is contrary to the Overall and Specific Outcomes of
