PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                  12 JULY 2016


RECOMMENDATION
That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the Planning & Environment
Committee Meeting dated 12 July 2016 and refuse Application No. PBA16/0016 for a Preliminary
Approval for Building Works assessable against the Planning Scheme, situated at 26 Lorikeet
Drive, Peregian Beach for the following reasons:
1.   The proposed building works conflicts with the provisions of The Noosa Plan’s Natural
     Resources Overlay Code.
2.   The application fails to provide revegetation within a 5.0m setback from the seaward
     boundary to assist in maintaining natural coastal processes including the natural cycles of
     erosion and accretion of foreshore areas.
3.   The works would not advance The Noosa Plan’s precautionary approach, which seeks to
     improve coastal resilience.



REPORT
1.   PROPOSAL
The application seeks approval for Building Works assessable against the Planning Scheme for a
concrete paved area and 2.1m x 12.0m lap pool sited within a 6.0m Coastal Protection setback.
The pool and a northern portion of the paved area are proposed at a 4.5m setback from the rear
boundary in lieu of 6.0m as a Specific Outcome of the code. An extract of the proposed site plan
is included below in Figure 1.
