General Committee Meeting - 15 January 2018
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 2018 archive, under 15 January

- RAL17/0501 Development Application for Reconfiguring a Lot (1 Lot into 6 Residential Lots), Located at 2 David Low Way, Castaways Beach

That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee Meeting dated 15 January 2018 regarding Application RAL17/0501 for a Development Permit for Reconfiguring a Lot – (1 into 6 residential lots), situated at 2 David Low Way, Castaways Beach and: A. Refuse the application for the following reasons: 1. The proposed development is contrary to the Overall and Specific Outcomes of the Eastern Beaches Locality Code of the Noosa Plan. The development proposes significant clearing that is contrary to the Locality Code which requires protection of the vegetated character and views from the David Low Way and protection of native vegetation. 2. The proposed development is contrary to the Biodiversity code as it involves clearing of vegetation that is mapped as Environmental Protection and Riparian vegetation under the Noosa Plan. 3. The proposed development will result in unacceptable impacts on the visual amenity and character of the area. 4. The applicant has not demonstrated that a compliant, safe access is able to be provided to the site in accordance with required standards. To achieve a safe access significant clearing of vegetation and earthworks in the road reserve is also likely to be required. 5. The proposal is an overdevelopment of the site with the resultant development form detrimentally affecting the environmental and amenity values of the site. 6. The proposed development represents a poor planning outcome for the site, with the subdivision layout failing to provide street frontage for the lots and an excessive number of lots with access via an easement. The proposed access arrangements are likely to result in ongoing management and maintenance issues for future residents of these lots. B. Advise the utility service providers that there is significant vegetation within the road reserve adjacent 2 David Low Way, Castaways Beach that requires detailed assessment prior to installation of any services to minimise potential impacts on this vegetation. C. Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.

That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee Meeting dated 15 January 2018 regarding Application No. MCU16/0144 for a Development Application for Material Change of Use of Premises - Retail Business Type 2 – Shop and Salon situated at 1 Kingsgate Drive, Tinbeerwah and defer the decision until the Ordinary Meeting of 18 January 2018 so that a further report can be brought to Council considering whether the existing building has the necessary building approvals. A. Approve the application in accordance with the conditions contained in the General Committee Agenda dated 15 January 2018. B. Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with the Planning Scheme: 1. The site has approval for a business use (general store) for over 2 decades and The Noosa Plan specifically identifies the subject site for use as Retail Business type 1 Local (General Store) which permits the sale of prepared food and dining facilities for up to 10 people. 1. The proposal is small scale and potential amenity impacts are able to be appropriately mitigated for nearby residents. 1. The proposed use predominantly serves a local function and affords the Tinbeerwah community a local venue, providing an alternative to travelling to nearby local centres. C. Advise the applicant that they must immediately reduce the number of dining facilities on site to no more than 10 seats, pursuant to the Noosa Plan’s definition of Retail Business Type 2 Shop & Salon.
