PROPOSAL
The applicant seeks approval to change the existing development approval to extend the existing and approved roof over the existing rear terrace by .990mm. The applicant indicated they require this extension to enable roller blinds to be fixed to the edge of an existing door that leads to the roof terrace to ensure they are resilient to wind and provide some privacy between dwellings. Further, the floor plans indicate the addition of some planter boxes on the terrace, positioned in such a way that it will afford some privacy between the subject sites balcony and the adjoining properties balcony.
Figures 1, 2, 3 and 4 show a locality plan and floor plan, south elevation, and section of the proposal.

background
A development approval for alterations and additions to a detached house was issued by council on 23 April 2007 for a relaxation to side boundary setback and eaves not complying with the minimum requirement of eaves to 75% of the perimeter of the building required by the planning scheme at the time.
On 23 February 2021, a minor change application was approved in part, whereby the existing roof line over the roof top terrace was approved and the proposed extension extending the roof line to the southern edge of the terrace was refused.  It was determined that supporting the roof line to the edge of the deck would increase the bulk of the dwelling and would encourage greater use of the space, further compromising the privacy to the adjoining properties private open space.

Instruments for Statutory Assessment
Under the Planning Act 2016 the application must be assessed against each of the following statutory planning instruments to the extent they are relevant to the development:
State Planning Policy;
South East Queensland Regional Plan;
Planning Regulation 2017; and
The Noosa Plan 2020.
Statutory Process
The applicant has requested to make a minor change to a development approval under s78 of the Planning Act 2016. An application for a minor change to a development approval can only be made in circumstances where a change would constitute a ‘minor change’.
The proposed change to the development approval requested by the applicant is determined to constitute a minor change on the grounds that:
the development would not result in substantially different development as the use is not changing and the built form is not significantly different to that exists;
the change does not include prohibited development;
the change would not require the application to be referred to an additional referral agency or cause a referral agency to have regard to new matters prescribed by regulation;
where the original application was code assessable, the change would not cause the application to become impact assessable.
Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
The proposal to extend the approved roof line an additional .990mm to enable roller blinds to be installed adequately.  Refer Figure 5. A site inspection revealed that there is no greater impact with regard to privacy between dwellings and to the bulk of the building, and that the proposed planters will afford greater privacy between dwellings than what currently exists. Refer Figures 6.
There are no issues with the proposal and therefore the requested change to the approved plans table (Condition 1) is supported.
Amended report section 24 June 2021:  It is noted that existing Condition 7 and 8 are contradictory to this proposal as these conditions related to the prior refusal.  Therefore to avoid confusion, it is proposed to delete Condition 7 and amend Condition 8 to reflect this proposal, being a minor extension.  Therefore, Sections C & D have been added to the recommendation section of this report.
