Monday, 23 July 2018 Our Ref: 17655 / Office: Sunshine Coast Council Ref: MCU18/0094 NOOSA COUNCIL PO BOX 141 TEWANTIN QLD 4565 ATTENTION: Wilhelm Koschade Dear Wilhelm, INFORMATION RESPONSE DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE (MULTIPLE HOUSING - TYPE 4 CONVENTIONAL) 15 GARNET STREET, COOROY LOT 901 ON C56011 Further to your information request for the abovementioned development application we now respond to all of the information requested. Please find attached: Amended Architectural Plans prepared by Morriarchi Architecture; and Amended Landscape Plans prepared by Project Urban. START INFORMATION RESPONSE Issue The proposed development does not provide sufficient landscaped areas and landscaped setbacks to enhance the visual amenity and natural landscape character of the site consistent with Probable Solution S1.1 of the Landscape Code. The submitted ground floor plan indicates a total landscaped area of 230m2 where the minimum requirement is 315m2 (proposed population density x 30m2). Information Required 1. Please provide amended plans which demonstrate compliance with Probable Solution S1.1 of the Landscape Code whereby the development achieves the minimum landscaped area requirement and landscaped setbacks are enhanced along the western side boundary and southern front boundary to Garnet Street. Consideration should be given to reducing the total hardstand area in addition to onsite car parking. Comment: Following discussions with Council Officers, the visitor parking bay initially proposed adjacent to the Garnet Street boundary has been removed. This change has allowed additional landscaping to be provided along both the Garnet Street and western boundaries in this location.

Additional landscaping has also been provided in the courtyards. As a result of these changes, the
2
proposed layout now complies with the minimum landscaped area of 315m sought by Probable
Solution S1.1 of the Landscape Code. Please refer to the submitted plans for further details.
Issue
The proposed dwellings encroach within the minimum 6.0 metre setback to Garnet Street and Wattle
Street. Given the site is constrained, Council is willing to accept the reduced setback providing good
landscape outcomes are achieved (Wattle Street & Garnet Street).
Information Required
2. Please provide amended plans reducing the extent of the proposed timber pergolas along the
Wattle Street frontage. Removing the entry component of each of the pergolas is preferable
and ensuring a good landscape outcomes is achieved in this location.
3. The timber pergola forming part of the private open space of the southernmost unit must also
be reduced to provide a greater landscaped setback to Garnet Street.
Comment: As can be seen on the amended plans, the timber pergolas to all units have been reduced
to above the patio areas only. As requested the pergola for Townhouse 4 has also been reduced thus
allowing additional landscaping adjacent to the Garnet Street boundary. The proposed changes have
resulted in a positive outcome to both street frontages.
END INFORMATION RESPONSE
Part 3: Information Request has now concluded. We ask that you now provide details of adjoining
owners in order that we may commence the public notification of the application.
