2. BACKGROUND
A development approval for a private jetty was approved on 17 June 2002. This change application
is seeking retrospective approval of the works described below. The proposed change involves the
replacement of the existing jetty with the inclusion of an additional pile. The jetty retains the existing
footprint, position within the waterway and appearance, constructed with acceptable materials.
3. ASSESSMENT
3.1. 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
• Noosa Plan 2020 (20 March 2026).
3.2. 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.
Statutory Instruments – Planning Scheme
The original application was lodged and assessed under the now superseded Schedule to the
Planning Scheme 1990. Pursuant to s81 of the Planning Act 2017, Council must consider the
planning scheme in effect when the original development application was lodged, however Council
may give weight to Noosa Plan 2020 as the planning scheme in effect at the time of the minor
change application being lodged.
The following codes from Noosa Plan 2020 are applicable to this development:
• Low Density Residential Zone Code;
• Noosaville Local Plan Code;
• Waterways Works Codes;
The proposed changes do not result in alteration of the existing jetty footprint, location within the
waterway or visual amenity. As such the jetty remains true to the original approval and generally
in accordance with provisions of the current planning scheme Noosa Plan (March 2020).
Existing Condition
1. Approved plan/s comprising drawings are numbered 02/101-01 & 02 prepared by John
Norden and Associates and dated May 2002. Copies of which are attached.
Applicant’s Request
The applicant has requested existing condition 1 be amended to reference updated engineered
plans produced by Long View Consulting Engineers, dated 21/07/2026.
Assessment of Request
Council approves of the applicant’s request to ensure the constructed jetty reflects the approved
plans. The additional pile does not contradict the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020.
Recommendation
It is recommended existing condition 1 be amended to read as follows:
1. Approved plan/s comprising drawings are numbered 02/101-01 & 02 prepared by John
Norden and Associates and dated May 2002. Copies of which are attached.
