Delegated Report - Code - Planning OPW24/0203

               2.     APPLICATION BACKGROUND
               The work is to address the conditions of the higher order approval (RAP22/0026) which requires
               the driveway crossover to be constructed in accordance with an Operational Works approval.
               3.     SITE DETAILS
               3.1. Background
               The non-standard crossover has already been built without the Operational Works approval, which
               is required as per the conditions of the Referral Agency Response.
               4.     ASSESSMENT
               4.1. 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; and
               •      Noosa Plan 2020.
               4.2. Noosa Plan 2020
               The following codes from the Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
               •      Low Density Residential Zone Code; and
               •      Low Density Housing Code.
               The subject site is located in Peregian Beach and is zoned low density residential. The proposed
               use is identified as a consistent use within the zone and is required to follow a code assessable
               application process.
               The application has been found to generally comply with all applicable statutory instruments.
               Assessment
               The non-standard crossover has already been built without OPW approval. As part of the
               application material, a detailed Traffic Engineering Letter prepared by Modus Transport and Traffic
               Engineering was provided justifying the non-standard layout.
               Council considers the non-standard layout acceptable due to the location of the driveway crossover
               on the cul-de-sac.
               5.     CONSULTATION
               5.1. Referral Agencies
               Not Applicable
               5.2. Internal Council Referrals
               Not applicable
               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. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
