               5.      CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The application seeks to develop a of 106 room 5-star hotel on land within the existing Noosa
               Springs development. The site is split zoned, with both the Tourist Accommodation Zone and the
               Recreation and Open Space Zone affecting the site. The split zoning at the time sought to
               recognise the need for a buffer distance (to mitigate potential odour impacts) associated with the
               nearby sewage treatment plant (STP). Supporting documentation has assessed the odour impacts
               of the STP to determine the appropriate building footprint and associated outdoor recreation areas.
               This material has been reviewed and supported by Council’s consulting odour expert with
               conditions recommended to address use of outdoor areas and ventilation of the building at its




                                                                                             3
               interface with the accepted odour limit.
               The proposed built form is consistent with the prevailing built form within Noosa Springs and

               compliments the golf clubhouse and spa facilities which are located nearby. The building does
               exceed the height limit due to the topography of the site and the large footprint anticipated in
                                                                             EN
               buildings providing resort accommodation. Site cover does not exceed the combined amounts
               permitted for both the Tourist Accommodation Zone and the Recreation and Open Space Zone
               whilst the plot ratio complies with the requirements of the Tourist Accommodation Zone. The

               application has also demonstrated compliance with the carparking, bushfire, and water
               quality/quantity requirements of the Noosa Plan whilst variations to setbacks associated with the
               two-level car park and elevated tennis courts are supported.
