                 Issue
                 It appears that there may be an issue with the scaling of the plans. The 1.0 metre distance
                 above natural ground level as shown on the elevation plans does not correlate with the
                 measured distance between each level. This may also be the case for the other plans.
                 Information Required
                 7.      Clarification that the plans are correctly scaled.
                 Issue
                 Landscaping
                 In accordance with the Landscaping Code 198m2 of landscaping is required, providing that
                 60% of this is soft landscaping.
                 The definition of soft landscaping includes:…..Soft landscaping is not located on top of a
                 constructed slab or other structure and is capable of supporting the establishment and growth
                 of canopy trees as well as other species. The term does not include swimming pools or
                 impervious surfaces such as driveways, vehicular access lanes, vehicle parking and
                 manoeuvring areas, pathways, stormwater structures, tennis courts, decks, balconies, roof
                 terraces and the like.
                 As such the green roof and podium planting do not considered to contribute to soft
                 landscaping.
                 Information Required
                 8.      Provision of at least 198m2 of landscaping, including at least 60% soft landscaping which
                         complies with the soft landscaping definition within the Noosa Plan.
                 Issue
                 The proposed development includes 2 separate driveways and no on-site manoeuvring area
                 to permit vehicles to exit in a forward gear. The 2 driveways will result in a loss of on-street
                 parking space. The proposal does not achieve the specific outcomes of the relevant codes
                 and is not in accordance with the relevant probable solution:
                      i. The Eastern Beaches Locality Code:

                               a.      Specific Outcome O42, Probable Solutions S42.3 and S42.4

                      ii. The Driveways and Carparking Code:

                               a. Specific Outcome O1, Probable Solution S1.2
                               b. Specific Outcome O8
                               c. Specific Outcome O11, Probable Solution S11.1

                   iii. The Transport, Roads and Drainage Code:

                               a. Specific Outcome O4
                 Information Required
                 9.      Provide amended plans that achieve the specific outcomes of the applicable codes
                         and/or are in accordance with the probable solutions. Alternatively provide sufficient
                         justification from suitably qualified persons to demonstrate how the development
                         achieves the specific outcomes of the applicable codes
