Instruments for Statutory Assessment
Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
State Planning Policy;
South East Queensland Regional Plan;
Planning Regulation 2017;
Noosa Plan 2020.
The following codes from the Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
Tourist Accommodation Zone Code; and
Dual Occupancy and Multiple Dwelling Code
Statutory Process
The applicant has requested to make a minor change to a development approval under s78 of the Planning Act 2016. An application for a minor change to a development approval can only be made in circumstances where a change would constitute a ‘minor change’.
The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to constitute a minor change on the grounds that:
the development would not result in substantially different development as the proposal is for a mezzanine level located internal to an existing building, and therefore will not dramatically changes the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance;
the change does not include prohibited development;
the change would not require the application to be referred to an additional referral agency or cause a referral agency to have regard to new matters prescribed by regulation;
where the original application was code assessable, the change would not cause the application to become impact assessable.

Applicant’s Request

Assessment of Request
Gross Floor Area
The original application was assessed under the superseded 1990 planning scheme, where the subject site was located within the Residential Medium Density zone, which allowed for a maximum gross floor area (GFA) of 2,683m2. The current GFA of the entire development is 2,451.5m2.
Under the current Noosa Plan 2020, the subject site is located in Tourist Accommodation zone. Performance Outcome PO12 of the Tourist Accommodation Zone Code allows for a maximum plot ratio within Noosaville of 0.65:1, therefore allowing a maximum GFA of 2,725.45m2. The total proposed GFA of the entire development, including the mezzanine level, is 2,464.1m2.
Building Height
The original application was assessed under the superseded 1990 planning scheme, where the subject site was located within the Residential Medium Density zone, which allowed for 2 to 3 storeys.
Performance Outcome PO9 of the Tourist Accommodation Zone Code allows for Buildings and other structures within Noosaville to have a maximum building height of three storeys and appear no more than three storeys from any elevation.
The proposal is for a mezzanine level within an existing 3 storey building. The addition is entirely internal, and will continue to appear as three storeys from any elevation. As such, the proposal complies with PO9 of the Tourist Accommodation Zone Code.
The application has been found to generally comply with all applicable statutory instruments.
