               3.     ASSESSMENT
               3.1. Instruments for Statutory Assessment
               Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following
               statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
               •      State Planning Policy;
               •      South East Queensland Regional Plan;
               •      Planning Regulation 2017; and
               •      Noosa Plan 2020 (20 March 2026).
               3.2. Noosa Plan 2020
               The following codes from the Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
               •      Low Density Housing Zone Code;
               The application has been found to generally comply with all applicable statutory instruments. The
               pertinent issues arising out of the assessment are discussed below:
               The site possesses three (x3) road frontages and currently has vehicle access from Ruby Street.
               The proposal is for the existing vehicle crossover to be decommissioned and a new vehicle
               crossover instated on the frontage of Kauri Lane, a lower hierarchy road.
               The new vehicle crossover is intended to access a shed with space for two (x2) vehicles. The
               proposed vehicle crossover location has minimal road reserve width present between the Kauri
               Lane road edge and the property boundary, clear of services.
               The plan submitted as part of the application material isn’t sufficient in detailing the extent of work.
               In considering the application and the non-standard nature of the proposed crossover governed by
               site constraints including a narrow laneway, engineering considers that the proposed vehicle
               crossover is consistent with existing crossovers in Kauri Lane, satisfies the relevant provisions of
               the Noosa Plan 2020 and recommends the following conditions.
               4.     CONSULTATION

               5.     CONCLUSION & REASONS FOR DECISION
               The proposed development generally complies with the requirements of the planning scheme and
               does not raise any significant issues that cannot be addressed by reasonable and relevant
               conditions. The application is therefore recommended for approval.
               The report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
