Ordinary Meeting - 17 October 2019
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 2019 archive, under 17 October
- Minutes: council's 2019 archive, under 17 October
Decisions

That Council note the report by the Coordinator Planning to the Planning & Environment Committee Meeting dated 8 October 2019 regarding Application No. MCU16/0079.04 for a minor change to Development Permit for Material Change of Use for extensions to RSL Club situated at 5 Memorial Avenue, Tewantin, described as Lot 10 on SP 273411 and refuse the change for the following reasons: 1. The proposed works do not represent a minor change to the development approval because the change results in a substantially different development as the increase of gaming machines increases the severity of a known impact with regards to social harm. 2. The proposed increase in gaming machines changes the form of the development so that the gambling component of the use is in excess of that which a reasonable person would have expected when the application was originally advertised. 3. The proposal results in incremental growth in gaming machines which is not supported due to concerns regarding community well-being.
