Minor Change Report MCU21/0228.02 & OPW21/0364.02

               •      Planning Regulation 2017; and
               •      Noosa Plan 2020 (25 September 2020).
               3.2. Statutory Process
               The applicant has requested to make a minor change to a development approval under s78 of the
               Planning Act 2016. An application for a minor change to a development approval can only be made
               in circumstances where a change would constitute a ‘minor change’.
               The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to
               constitute a minor change on the grounds that:
               •      the development would not result in substantially different development as the proposal does
                      not:
                      o     involve a new use; or
                      o     result in the application applying to a new parcel of land; or
                      o     dramatically change the built form in terms of scale, bulk and appearance; or
                      o     change the ability of the proposed development to operate as intended; or
                      o     remove a component that is integral to the operation of the development; or
                      o     significantly impact on traffic flow and the transport network, such as increasing traffic
                            to the site; or
                      o     introduce new impacts or increase the severity of known impacts; or
                      o     remove an incentive or offset component that would have balanced a negative impact
                            of the development; or
                      o     impact on infrastructure provisions.
               •      the change does not include prohibited development;
               •      the change would not require the application to be referred to an additional referral agency
                      or cause a referral agency to have regard to new matters prescribed by regulation;
               •      where the original application was code assessable, the change would not cause the
                      application to become impact assessable.
               3.3. Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
               The original application was lodged and assessed under the same scheme that is currently in
               effect.
