                                                                                  132008.1128

I REASONS I GROUNDS FOR APPROVAL DESPITE CONFLICT WITH SCHEME
The Assessment Manager considers the decision conflicts with the planning scheme and
the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict:

 1.     The development layout accords with the site's zonings following amendments to The
        Noosa Plan dated 11 May 2011 and master planning previously undertaken for the
        site, which include significant dedication of land for environmental conservation.

 2.     The proposed medical use is ancillary and complimentary to the development's aged
        care and residential uses.

 3.     The development addresses an identified need for aged care and retirement
        dwellings in the area and is supported by adopted Council strategies for housing and
        the elderly.

 4.     The site is well located to provide future residents with access to local services and
        transport.
