8            Conclusion

The above development application has been submitted to the Sunshine Coast Regional Council as the
Assessment Manager of the application under the Sustainable Planning Act 2009. This application seeks
a Development Permit for a Material Change of Use of Premises for Retail Business- Type 7 Garden &

Lifestyle Centre on the site which is impact assessable development under the Noosa Plan 2006.

This application         can    be supported on a number of grounds as provided in detail in the above report.
These grounds include:

                  The    proposed display building is located on a site that is already approved for a Retail
                  Garden Centre & Coffee shop;

                  The proposal seeks permission to extend an approved building on site to provide additional
                  weatherproof display area for outdoor furniture, garden ornaments, statue, pots and other
                  garden items.
                  The area to be used for outdoor furniture display is already approved for display use;

                  All rainwater from the new building will be collected and used on site;

                  The design of the development respects the streetscape of the locality                                        by incorporating
                  substantial landscape screening; and

                  The new        building enables a more open entrance area and visually balances the existing
                  structures on site.



The Assessment Manager’s favourable consideration of the above development application is therefore
recommended.
