PLANNING OFFICER'S REPORT FILE: TPC 2486 (GT Simmonds Pty Ltd) OWNER: GT Simmonds Pty Ltd SITE: 14 Grant Street, Noosa Heads described as Lot 86 on RP 92518, Parish of Weyba AREA: 663 m? PROPOSAL: Duplex Dwelling ZONE: Residential Low Density € RECEIVED: 30 November, 1992 ADVERTISED: 4 December 1992 OBJECTIONS: Nil FEES PAID: $400 (additional $50 required) Application has been made to Council for a duplex dwelling on the above site in Noosa Heads. At its meeting of 27th January 1993 Planning Portfolio considered a report prepared by the Planning Department relating to the proposed units. Concerns were raised with reference to the visual appearance of the building, as the building did not appear to compliment the surrounding area or was in keeping with the vision and design standards established for the Noosa area. From the plan submitted it was believed that the proposal was not characteristic of the area and was not of a satisfactory design. Following Planning Portfolio and Committee consideration of the application, the applicant had several discussions with the Shire Planner to ascertain Council's concerns with the proposed development. As a result of these meetings the applicant requested that Council hold over consideration of the application as consultations with a local designer to review the design of the buildings was being undertaken. The applicant has subsequently approached local firm Hurst and Harris who have modified the design of the duplex dwelling. It is these plans which have now been further assessed by staff. A full set of final plans for the development had not been submitted at the time of drafting this report. In an effort to continue processing and resolve the application, the preliminary plans have been perused and are considered appropriate. Further detailed assessment will be submitted at Planning Portfolio. Document Set ID: 24526009 Version: 1, Version Date: 09/02/2026
