ORDINARY MEETING AGENDA                                                                   20 APRIL 2017


3   MCU16/0075 DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE OF
    PREMISES - DETACHED HOUSE (19) AT 90 BEACH ROAD, NOOSA NORTH SHORE
    Cr Wellington declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173 of the
    Local Government Act 2009) due to his business dealings with Petrac in 2008 and Solingen in 2011
    (both prior to his election to Council) to provide display material to the North Shore Eco Centre (also
    known as Great Sandy Eco Centre). Cr Wellington believed he could consider this item impartially and
    in the public interest and therefore remained in the meeting room for the debate and decision on this
    matter.
    That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the Planning &
    Environment Committee Meeting dated 11 April 2017 and refuse Application No.
    MCU16/0075 for a Development Permit for 19 Detached houses, situated at 90 Beach Road,
    Noosa North Shore for the following reasons:
    1.    The proposed use, defined as a Detached House under The Noosa Plan is an
          inconsistent with the long term strategic planning and is an inconsistent use in a Visitor
          Mixed Use zone and is contrary to the Overall Outcomes of the Noosa North Shore
          Locality Code and the strategic intent of The Noosa Plan, which seeks to protect
          substantial key sites for visitor accommodation, with the subject site identified as one
          of the key sites;
    2.    The non-protection of substantial key sites for visitor accommodation will adversely
          impact upon a viable tourism economy for Noosa;
    3.    The proposal is likely to result in poor amenity for permanent residents and may create
          negative experiences for visitors to the resort, given the potential conflicts between
          permanent residents and visitors;
    34.   The proposal has the potential to increase pressure to provide additional infrastructure
          and services on the Noosa North Shore, contrary to The Noosa Plan and Local
          Government Infrastructure Plan; and
    45.   The applicant does not provide sufficient grounds to justify the conflict with the Planning
          Scheme and the proposal will not result in any significant benefits to the community.



4   NOOSA WATERFRONT RESTAURANT REQUEST FOR APPROVAL OF EVENTS IN
    ADJACENT RECREATION PARK RESERVE
    That Council note the report by the Property Advisor to the Services & Organisation
    Committee meeting dated 11 April 2017 and:
    A.    Agree to issue Temporary Event Permits to the Noosa Waterfront Restaurant for
          existing event bookings to 21 July 30 November 2017.
    B.    Advise Noosa Waterfront Restaurant that, should it seek ongoing access to the reserve
          land for commercial purposes, it should make a submission to the upcoming Noosaville
          Foreshore Land Use Master Plan project.
    C.    Further consider longer-term tenure associated with the Noosa Waterfront
          Restaurant’s use of the reserve land where it is recommended in the final adopted
          Noosaville Foreshore Land Use Master Plan.
