  Our Ref: 2022 0581                                            17th August 2022

  Noosa Shire Council
  PO Box 141
  Tewantin QLD 4565

  Dear Sir/Madam

  Request for Minor Change to 132000.200272 to replace PWD lift with DDA
  compliant ramp – Development Permit for Building Works.

  Lot 366 on SP137432 – 48-54 Duke St, SUNSHINE BEACH QLD 4567

  The proposed works involved the removal of an existing PWD lift (constructed under
  PC17/0545) and the installation of a new DDA compliant ramp up to the existing
  decked area. The proposed works include the removal of 27.6m2 of deck and an
  additional 1.6m2 of new decking area to align with the new DDA compliant ramp
  access point.

  Below is an assessment of the relevant planning scheme codes to support the
  application.

  Coastal Communities Local Plan area
  The table of assessment for building works in the Tourist Accommodation Zone does
  not require assessment against the Local Plan Area Code. Nevertheless, the relevant
  acceptable outcomes are detailed below.

  AO3.3 – The installation of the DDA compliant ramp removes the planter as shown on
  the Stephen Kidd Design plans ref 0011.01a referenced in the original approval,
  however based on the enclosed PC17/0545 plans, this planter was removed as part of
  that approval. The construction of the new DDA ramp will not significantly change any
  of the existing architectural and landscape treatments facing Duke St. The new ramp
  handrail will match the style and colour of the existing handrail.

  Tourist Accommodation Zone Code
  AO13.1 – The proposed works comply with a 0m frontage setback from the front
  boundary for the ground floor and 0m setback for side and rear boundaries when
  located in the Coastal Communities Local Plan Area - Duke Street, Sunshine Beach.

  Business Activities Code
  AO8.3 – The proposed ramp surface will be non-slip and will comply with AS1428 for
  slip resistance.

  AO8.4 – The construction of the DDA ramp will require an alteration to the Outdoor
  dining areas 2 and 3 as shown on Stephen Kidd Design plans ref 0011.01a referenced
  in the original approval. The existing approval did not require any soft landscaping in
  the outdoor dining areas and the proposed works do not include any soft landscaping.

                                                                                  ABN 46 326 883 383

  It is considered that the existing vegetation located in Duke Street is sufficient to create
  an ambient atmosphere for diners.

  Works Code
  The proposed works are not altering the existing driveways or current parking
  configuration.

  The proposed works will be certified by an RPEQ structural engineer and will be wholly
  located within the lot they serve. It is acknowledged that footpath closure permits may
  be required to undertake the proposed works.

  No new landscaping works are proposed as part of the works. If council requires
  additional landscaping works, these can be conditioned as part of the approval.

  Existing Approval ref: 20026 DA dated 05/10/2000
  Condition 6 required a maximum of 100 patrons for all the outdoor dining areas
  including the courtyard dining area added under ref: 132000.200272.2. The proposed
  works may reduce the area available for outdoor dining in areas 2 and 3.

  Conclusion
  The proposed works are considered to represent a minor change to the original
  approval and are consistent with current planning scheme requirements. recent
  research indicates that PWD lifts are actually less accessible than ramps due to them
  often being locked or require a key to operate for security reasons. The current PWD
  lift has had many maintenance and repair issues which as resulted in people with
  disabilities being unable to access the site. Therefore, the replacement of the current
  PWD lift with a DDA compliant ramp is considered to be the best outcome for the
  property owner and the general public, especially those with mobility issues.

  It is kindly requested that council approve this application subject to reasonable and
  relevant conditions.

  If you wish to discuss any aspect of this proposal further, please do not hesitate to
  contact me on 07 5451 0579 or 0421 053 173

  Yours Sincerely,
