requirement for local governments to provide a notice to applicants and owners that

REVIEWED REPORT
A report regarding development application REC14/0002 was included as Item 4, page 93,
of the Planning & Organisation Committee Agenda dated 16 September 2014. The report
was referred to and considered at the General Committee meeting on 22 September 2014,
which resolved:
That Council note the report by the Senior Development Planner to the Planning &
Organisation Committee Meeting dated 16 September 2014 regarding Application No.
REC14/0002 to Reconfigure a Lot (1 lot into 2 lots and an access easement) and provide a
further report to the Council Ordinary Meeting on 25 September 2014 advising proposed
conditions to support the approval of this application on the basis of a minimum lot size of
2000m2.
During the course of the discussion at the General Committee meeting, Councillors
indicated they did not support the proposed development because Lot 1 does not meet the
minimum lot size for unsewered lots within the locality under The Noosa Plan. The
Committee indicated the development would only be supported where the lots met the
prescribed minimum lot size and requested additional conditions addressing this issue.
The alternate motion above has been drafted for that purpose. Specifically, Condition 3
has been added to ensure the minimum lot size is maintained and Condition 2 has been
altered to note the required amendments to the plan of development.
Officer Recommendation
Staff maintain the previous recommendation for this application detailed in the original
report.
