Dear Sir/Madam

RE: LODGEMENT OF DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION AND REQUEST FOR SITING VARIATION
Application for a Material Change of Use for a Dwelling House and Request for Siting
Variations for Premises Located at 20 Park Crescent Sunshine Beach and Described as Lot
589 on RP48112.

Martoo Consulting has been engaged by Mr Justyn Douglas, as applicant for the above proposal, to
seek Noosa Council approval for a Dwelling house in a Coastal Protection and Scenic Amenity
Overlay. As part of the proposal, the applicant is also seeking concessions in relation to height and
side boundary setbacks for a new dwelling at 20 Park Crescent, Sunshine Beach.

This letter details the proposal and provides an assessment of the development against the relevant
code provisions contained within the Noosa Plan 2020.


1. THE SUBJECT SITE
The subject site is a trapezoid shaped lot located on the eastern side of Park Crescent, Sunshine
Beach. The site slopes steeply down from the Park Crescent frontage to the eastern rear boundary
which adjoins a beach reserve. The site currently contains a small dwelling located to the front of the
site which was constructed in the early 1980s.

The site is bounded by the following:

        North east:                        Multi level dwelling
        South East:                        Coastal reserve
        West:                              Two storey dwelling
        North west (opposite the site:     two storey dwelling

Figure 1 below illustrates the location of the site and surrounding land uses. Vehicular access to the
site is from Park Crescent and the site is serviced by all essential urban infrastructure including reticulated
water supply, sewerage, underground telecommunications and overhead electricity cables, stormwater
drainage and a bitumen roadway.

The general character of the area is that of mix of older unit developments and large residential dwellings
built to the street front. The site enjoys direct views over the coastal dune system to the ocean.
