General Committee Meeting - 18 September 2017
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.

The proposal does not constitute a permissible change as it would result in a substantially different development due to the proposed increase in site cover, built form and reduced setbacks. 2. The proposal is not consistent with the Overall Outcomes and Specific Outcomes of the Noosa Heads Locality as the reduced setback to Noosa Drive and the increased site cover result in a development which is inconsistent with the intended streetscape and the surrounding character.

The proposal is not consistent with Driveways and Car Parking Code due to the absence of additional car parking and the increase in use area. A.

Delegate the matter to Council officers to decide where the amended plans satisfactorily address the issues raised.
