        next Council meeting, subject to the applicant extending the decision period, to allow the
        Deed of Agreement to be revised to exclude the following 2 requirements:
        1.    Maintenance of all units 12-15 on one title;
        2.    Payment of a bond to secure compliance with the Deed of Agreement.
        A.    Refuse the application for the following reasons:
              1.    The proposal does not comply with Overall Outcomes 7.2.3.2 (2) (e), (h) &
                    (j) and PO8, PO9, PO11 of the Tewantin Local Plan Code as:
                    1.1   The proposal is predominantly residential dwelling units and will
                          therefore erode the availability of centre zoned land for commercial
                          activities and the ability to provide employment into the future.
                    1.2   The proposal does not provide sufficient business opportunities
                          consistent with that required for the Tewantin town centre.
                    1.3   The proposal includes retail activities fronting Doonella Street.
              2.    The proposal does not comply with Overall Outcome 6.4.2.2 (2) (a), (d), (e)
                    & (m) and PO1, PO2, PO39 of the District Centre Zone Code as:
                    2.1   The proposal provides limited potential to provide services and
                          employment consistent with the District Centre’s role and function.
                    2.2   The development does not provide sufficient commercial floor area to
                          contribute positively to the economic activity and vibrancy required of
                          a centre zone.
                    2.3   The development is primarily residential and does not satisfactorily
                          support the predominant business function of the centre.
                    2.4   The proposed Food and Drink Outlet has the potential to adversely
                          impact on the amenity of the surrounding residential uses.
              3.    The proposed development is not consistent with the proposed planning
                    scheme amendments to provide for social housing and therefore does not
                    offer any significant community benefit that would warrant approval of the
                    development.
        B.    Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act
              2016.
