    A.   Refuse to extend the currency period for the following reasons:
         1.     The proposed development is contrary to the Overall Outcomes 7.7.2 g), jj) and

                of the Noosa Plan 2006 as:
                i.     The proposed development does not incorporate a pitched or curved roof
                       form, exceeds the maximum plot ratio for the Neighbourhood Centre Zone
                       and results in a building scale which is not compatible with surrounding
                       development and which presents an appearance of excessive bulk to
                       adjacent properties, roads and the village green.
         2.     The proposed development is contrary to the Purpose, Overall Outcomes and
                Performance Outcomes PO11 and PO12 of the Local Centre Zone of the Noosa
                Plan 2020 as:
                i.     The proposed development is not small in scale in the context of Peregian
                       Beach village, exceeding the maximum plot ratio of the site and will result
                       in a building which is not compatible with the scale of surrounding
                       development and presents a bulky appearance adjacent properties, roads
                       and the village green.
                ii.    The proposed development does not provide a 2 metre setback to the
                       village green and maintain the visual continuity and pattern of buildings
                       fronting the village green and consequently will impact on the area’s
                       amenity.
         3.     The proposed development is contrary to the Purpose and Overall Outcomes
                and the Performance Outcome PO3, PO7 and PO10 of the Coastal Communities
                Local Plan Code of the Noosa Plan 2020 as:
                i.     The proposal does not retain and enhance the built form of streetscape
                       character of the centre as the scheme has excessive plot ratio and site
                       cover, and proposes inadequate setbacks to the village green.
                ii.    The proposed development does not provide varied roof forms and
                       variations in projected and recessed elements and facades.
                iii.   The proposed development does not respect the scale and character of
                       development on adjoining sites and is not sympathetic to the coastal village
                       character of the local centre.
