PROPOSAL:

The application seeks approval for stormwater disposal onsite. The extent of the change is to revise the discharge method from surcharge of an onsite infiltration system to an underground piped connection to an existing pit located in the common property area.

[Note: state the specific IDAS components of the application (eg. a Development Permit for Material Change of Use (Office)).

BACKGROUND:

A combined Development Permit for a material change of Use (Detached House) and Operational Work for Stormwater and excavation was issued on 27 September 2011.

STATUTORY PROCESS:

The applicant has requested to make a change to a development approval under s369 of the Sustainable Planning Act 2009.  A request to change a development approval under s369 can only be made in circumstances where that change would constitute a ‘permissible change’.

The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to constitute a permissible change on grounds that:
The change would not result in a substantially different development because it is a change to the stormwater treatment system onsite. Note: provide reasons
The change would not require the application to be referred to additional concurrence agencies;
The original application was impact assessable and the proposed changes would not likely cause a person to make a properly made submission because the change is minor in nature. Note: provide reasons
The change would not cause the approval to involve prohibited development.

On this basis, the applicant has followed lawful process in making a request under s369 of the Act.

ASSESSMENT:

As the proposal included works in the common property area, the applicant has provided a letter from the body corporate agreeing to the works. The agreement is subject to a number of conditions.

Due to the proposed change Council sought advice from the design engineer regarding compliance with the first sentence of Condition 15 of the subject approval which requires “no net increase in stormwater runoff from the site”. The design engineer submitted confirmation via email on the 30/7/12.

RECOMMENDATION

APPROVE the request to change a development approval, Application No. OPW11/0257.01, situated at Noosa Dunes 34/512 David Low Way CASTAWAYS BEACH, in accordance with the following details for the Decision Notice.

In relation to the request to make a change to the existing approval, Council decided to:

A.	Change Condition 16 to read as follows:
16.	All stormwater drainage (including roof water overflow from the rainwater storage system) must be collected and discharged so there is no net increase in stormwater runoff from the site.

B.	Delete Conditions 15 and 17
