Planning Report - 23 Edward St Duplex · MCU22/0174

1.   Summary

RG Strategic has prepared this development application on behalf of Edward Street Development
Pty Ltd. The subject site is located at 23 Edward Street, Noosaville 4566, and is formally described
as Lot 0, 1 and 2 on GTP492 as shown on Figure 3. Noting this will change subject to titling of the
new Dual Occupancy consisting of 2 x 3 bedroom dwellings.

The purpose of this report is to seek approval for a Development Permit for a Material Change of
Use for a Dual Occupancy use and a Development Permit for Demolition.

The site is included in the Medium Density Residential Zone within the Noosaville Local Plan area of
the Noosa Plan 2020. An application of this nature within the Medium Density Residential Zone and
for a Development Permit for demolition triggers Code Assessment.

The proposed development of this site constitutes ‘development’ as defined by Schedule 2 of the
Planning Act 2016. This report demonstrates that the proposed Material Change of Use of Premises
for a Dual Occupancy is permitted.

This planning report provides greater detail of the nature of the proposal, describes the site
characteristics and surrounding land uses, and provides a statutory assessment against the intents
and code requirements of the Noosa Plan 2020. These matters are set out in;

          • Proposed development intent;

          • Description of the characteristics of site and surrounds;
          • Proposed development details;

          • An assessment of the proposal against the State planning interests;

          • An assessment of the proposal against the SEQ Regional Plan;
          • An assessment of the proposal against the Noosa Plan 2020; and

          • A conclusion that summarises the grounds which support the proposed development.


This report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying covering letter, DA Form 1 and
Appendix A Proposal Plans prepared by Tim Ditchfield Architects. This report comprehensively
addresses the merits of the development with regard to the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020 and
other relevant matters as prescribed in the Planning Act 2016. The development is appropriate and
is not anticipated to impact upon the amenity of the locality. Council’s approval of the application
is therefore sought, subject to relevant and reasonable conditions.
