The proposal has been assessed against the Minor Change requirements of the Planning Act and the
Substantially Different development requirements of the DA Rules in the original Planning Report
submitted with the application. The amended proposal has been reviewed against the requirements with
the following noted:

          dramatically changes the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance; - The existing
           approval details 19 tourist villas/cabins on Lot 2 and 6 tourist villas/cabins on Lot 1. No changes
           are proposed to the number of cabins on the site. The proposal substantially reduces the size
           of the cabins from 100m2 to be between 37m2 and 44m2. The revised proposal also introduces
           one and two bedroom cabins whereas the existing approval permitted 2 bedroom units for the
           entire development.

           The proposed changes therefore do not dramatically change the built form and provide a design
           that is more suited to the character of the area.

           The cabins are in a different configuration to the approved site plan (which proposed rows of
           cabins across the site), however the proposed layout and restriction of vehicles throughout the
           site enables greater landscaping between the buildings reducing the appearance of the
           development on the surrounding area.

          changes the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended; – the proposed
           changes to the style and design of the cabins and reduction in built form does not impact on the
           operation of the site. The new cabins will be able to be used for visitor accommodation.

          introduces new impacts or increase the severity of known impacts; - No new uses proposed on
           the site and the proposed alterations to the design and layout provide a smaller built form across
           the site. Carparking has also been consolidated and located in one area to the front of the site
           reducing the number of vehicles travelling down the existing driveway and to encourage walking
           around the site.
