CHANGES SOUGHT

The applicant is seeking to undertake a significant refurbishment of the existing Netanya development
in order to refresh Netanya’s image and to rectify a number of the building’s compliance issues with
respect to fire and evacuation codes, DDE compliance and shade protection. This proposal is significant
for Noosa because the proposed changes will improve the existing visitor accommodation,
entertainment and dining premises and allowing this iconic development to continue to remain
successful and relevant into the future.

The Architectural Plans prepared by Sprout (accompanying this report as Attachment 1) illustrate that
the changes sought are predominately aesthetic in nature with some additional built form proposed as
a direct consequence of the improvements. The extent of the changes are listed below:

    1.  The extension of the outdoor dining area for the Providore tenancy – refer to details and images
        on plans SD60.01 and SD60.02;
    2. A new awning over the Hastings Street side of Belissima tenancy for increased weather
        protection for the shop and general public – refer to details and images on plan SD60.00;
    3. A new roof over the western side of the Bellissima tenancy and service yard for increased
        weather protection for the shop and general public – refer to details and images on plan
        SD60.00;
    4. A new roof over the foyer entry and car set down area adjoining lobby for increased weather
        protection and convenience for residents and guests – refer to details and images on plan
        SD60.01;
    5. The extension of the existing fire exit stairs from level 3 to the roof level to meet fire and
        evacuation codes – refer to details and images on plan SD60.07;
    6. The extension of the eastern lift from level 3 to the roof level to meet DDE standards – refer to
        details and images on plan SD60.07;
    7. New covered walkway links to the fire stairs on Level 4 for increased weather protection for
        residents and guests – refer to details and images on plan SD60.07;
    8. New pergolas to the rooftop terraces for increased shade protection and useability of the roof
        tops – refer to details and images on plan SD60.06;
    9. A new cantilevered awning above the north facing units on the beach side for increased weather
        protection for residents and guests – refer to details and images on plan SD60.06;
    10. A new awning structure above the U205 terrace for increased weather protection – refer to
        details and images on plan SD60.03;
    11. A new rear entry structure between the building and the beach for increased weather protection
        for residents and guests – refer to details and images on plan SD60.04;
    12. A new day bed pergola structure between the building and the beach – refer to details and
        images on plan SD60.04; and
    13. New stair, substation, amenities and roof structure to the eastern side of the building / “Sails”
        entry and significant improvements to the presentation to the street as shown on plan SD60.09.
    14. New shopfront and roof over 'Rumba Bar' as well as extension of Fire Stair 01.

These improvements and additions result in a small consequential increase to the gross floor area of
the Providore (café – outdoor dining) and Sails (restaurant) tenancies of 28m2 and 25m2, respectively,
and a minor increase to overall site cover (2.3%). The site cover increases occur largely at the ground
plane as a result of additional roof and awning cover adjacent to the western tenancies and reception,
and therefore do not contribute to the scale and bulk of the building.
