Minor Change - Planning Report · 51997.2256.02

1.   Summary

RG Strategic has prepared this development application on behalf of Mitch Noosa Pty Ltd. The
purpose of this report is to seek approval for a Minor Change Application to amend the following of
Decision Notice 51997.2256.01 of the property known as Bella Casa (Noosa):

     •   Amend Condition 19 (Car Parking), and

     •   Amend Condition 46 (Approved Plans).

The subject site is located at 40 Hastings Street, Noosa Heads and if formally described as Lot 6 on
SP108904.

Bella Casa currently consists of 26 x Multiple Dwellings Units with associated guest facilities, 2 x
Shop/Commercial Services Uses, management and reception facilities, and 34 off-street car
parking spaces. One unit along with a number of associated storage areas and facilities are utilised
exclusively by the manager. These areas are identified as Lot 6 in the Survey Plans enclosed within
Appendix C.

The proposed Minor Change seeks to create 1 additional lot (Lot 28) by splitting the reception and
management exclusive areas attributed to Lot 6 from the dwelling unit (Lot 6 – manager’s
residence). Lot 6 currently consists of:

     •   1 x reception area being 8m2 and located on Level A,

     •   1 x associated facilities/storage area being 5m2 and located on Level A.

     •   1 x multiple dwelling unit (manager’s residence) located on Level B,

     •   2 x associated facilities/storage areas being 4m2 each and located of Level B, and

     •   1 x existing car parking space for the exclusive use of Lot 6.

It is proposed that Lot 6 will be split as per the following:

     •   Lot 6 will consist solely of the multiple dwelling unit (previously the manager’s residence) and
         the existing car park space allocated to the unit.

     •   The proposed Lot 28 will consist of entirely of the associated facility, storage and reception
         areas relevant to the administration and management of Bella Casa. A total of
         approximately 21m2. The provision of 1 x car parking space is proposed to be located on
         Level   A   for   the   exclusive   use   by    the    visitor   accommodation   (Bella   Casa)
         manager/receptionist. The provision of the additional car parking space requires a minor
         change to the approved plans and existing car parking arrangements.

As a new allotment is being created, an additional car park is proposed to be provided. This car
park is proposed to be provided in the area labelled as “turn around”, located between spaces 12
and 13 as identified on the 11852 TC Approved Plans prepared by John Dimitriou Architects
(Appendix B). This car park is identified as parking space #35 in the Proposed Plans enclosed within
Appendix A.
