REPORT
At the Ordinary Meeting on 18 October 2018, Council considered a Mayoral Minute regarding a
planning appeal in respect of a mixed use residential development at 215 David Low Way,
Peregian Beach. The Mayoral Minute advised of the trial proceedings and the applicant’s recent
proposed settlement offer to the submitter and Council principally agreeing to change the
development to 32 motel units and 20 visitor units consistent with the Noosa Plan’s strategic intent
for the site to support the tourism industry and provide for a range of visitor accommodation choices
in Noosa.
The settlement removed the previously proposed accommodation for permanent residents from
the site with amended plans effecting a redesign, reducing the overall number of units on site and
the development footprint to better fit with the low density character of Peregian Beach and improve
landscaping opportunities, setbacks and the development’s interface with surrounding properties.
Through the appeal amended bushfire management, stormwater management and acoustic
measures were also resolved.
On the basis of these changes Council resolved to settle the appeal with a further report to be
presented to a future Council meeting for Council’s consideration detailing a full set of conditions
for the proposed development and seeking Council’s agreement to finalise the appeal.
Since that time a set of conditions were provided to the appellant for their review and the appellant
provided a revised set of plans to meet the settlement agreement conditions. The conditions have
been drafted to generally reflect and support the agreed development and ensure it will be
undertaken in a manner that address the issues raised during the appeal and achieve an outcome
for the site consistent with the Noosa Plan requirements.
It is therefore recommended that Council finalise the settlement of this appeal generally in
accordance with the conditions recommended.
