Minor Change Cover Letter · MCU13/0153.02

Accordingly, the subject change is considered to be a minor change.

ASSESSMENT
Pursuant to Clause 81 (4) & (5) the responsible entity must consider the statutory instrument, or
other document, as in effect when the development application for the development approval
was properly made. However, the responsible entity may give the weight the responsible entity
considers is appropriate, in the circumstances, to—
   (a)      the statutory instrument or other document as in effect when the change application
            was made; or
   (b)      if the statutory instrument or other document is amended or replaced after the
            change application is made but before it is decided—the amended or replacement
            instrument or document; or
   (c)      another statutory instrument—
            (i)     that comes into effect after the change application is made but before it is
                    decided; and
            (ii)    that the responsible entity would have been required to consider if the
                    instrument had been in effect when the development application for the
                    development approval was properly made.

        Comment: The changed proposal would not result in a substantially different outcome to the
        original proposal and on this basis is considered to generally comply with the planning
        scheme in effect at the time (Noosa Plan 2006). That is, if the changed application was made
        when the original application was made, it would have been approved subject to similar
        conditions.

        An assessment of the proposal against the current Noosa Plan 2020 planning scheme
        provisions have been undertaken. Namely, the Medium Impact Industry Zone code, the
        Noosaville Local Plan code, Business Activities code, Industry Activities code and Works Code.
        The proposal with the hail netting would be consistent when assessed against these planning
        scheme provisions.

AFFECTED ENTITIES

There are no affected entities.

SUBMITTERS

The application was subject to Impact Assessment, however there were no objections to the proposal
lodged with Council.

CONCLUSION

The applicant is seeking to construct hail protection netting over the hardstand storage area which
houses a majority of the vehicles which are processed on the subject site. The netting has been
designed with a material which will have very little impact due to the high level of visual permeability
and the location of the hardstand.

Furthermore, an assessment of the proposal against the current planning scheme criteria finds that the
use is appropriate for the site on the basis the use is existing, lawfully approved and generally complies
with the requirements of the current Planning Scheme’s codes.

There are no affected entities or submitters to consider.

We are advised by Council that a fee of $2,218.00 applies to the application. Payment will be made
electronically upon receipt of a Council invoice and reference number.
