PLANNING & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                   13 OCTOBER 2015


The development’s design is generally well suited to the site and the building’s scale and
siting respects the existing character and amenity of area. The proposal does not raise any
significant planning concerns and grounds to support the development, despite the planning
conflicts are considered to comprise:
     The multiple dwelling use is existing on the site.
     The development will provide centrally located small dwelling units with access to
       Tewantin’s facilities and services.
     The development’s small dwelling units will increase residential housing options in the
       locality and are likely to be relatively affordable.
     There is no identified need for further community or infrastructure facilities within
       Tewantin and the development will not unduly constrain land available for commercial
       uses consistent with the site’s zoning provisions.
     The development is consistent with the developed character of the area and will not
       negatively impact on visual or residential amenity.
The application is therefore recommended for approval, subject to conditions.
