General Committee Meeting - 15 August 2016
This meeting predates council's current meetings system, which begins in April 2023, so there is no agenda here with each item cued to the video. What follows is what the record holds: council's papers, and the decisions its minutes record.
Papers
Council keeps papers from before April 2023 on a separate archive page for each year, listed by meeting date. The files stay on council's site — why.
- Agenda: council's 2016 archive, under 15 August
- Minutes: council's 2016 archive, under 15 August
Decisions
Every decision the minutes record, in the order minuted. Where a division was called the names are on the contested votes register; otherwise the minutes say only whether it carried.

That Council note the report by the Coordinator Planning to the Planning & Environment Committee Meeting dated 9 August 2016 and refuse Application No. MCU15/0122 for a Development Permit for Material Change of Use for Commercial Business – Type 2 Medical and Retail Business – Type 2 Shop & Salon, situated at 52, 54, 56 & 58 Goodchap Street and 3, 5 & 7 Val Crescent, Noosaville for the following reasons: 1. The development conflicts with the South East Queensland Regional Plan’s Desired Regional Outcome for employment because it detracts from future development at the Noosa Business Centre. 2. The development conflicts with The Noosa Plan’s provisions for the Detached Housing zone and is a significant departure in use type, scale and intensity of development intended for the site and would impact on the residential amenity of the area and streetscape of Goodchap Street and Val Crescent. 3. The development conflicts with The Noosa Plan’s provisions that seek to ensure new commercial development is located at Noosa Business Centre and other existing business centres in Noosa and would impact on development at those centres. 4. The development of medical uses in unplanned areas is likely to undermine the long term viability of the Noosa Business Centre as the Noosa’s principal business centre and focus for business and employment growth. 5. The applicant has not demonstrated significant need exists for the development at the subject site. 6. The development’s vehicle access and maneuvering provisions are inadequate and would cause impacts on the local road network. 7. The development would use spare capacity within the local road network, which is undesirable. 8. The applicant has not demonstrated sufficient grounds exist to overcome the development’s statutory planning conflicts.
