Development Site



KEY POINT SUMMARY

• Application for new medical centre incorporating a pharmacy and café; • Development site over three (3) titles, with two (2) fronting Channon

Street and one (1) fronting Queen Street; • Development over site fronting Queen Street an in ‘inconsistent’ use

however approval considered justified; • Relaxation of seven (7) car parking spaces requested and supported; • Frontage reconstruction work required in Channon Street; • Referred to Department of Main Roads who require installation of a ‘no

parking anytime’ zone along the Channon Street frontage; • Contribution of $1 944 towards footpath in Queen Street recommended; • Road contribution of $67 348 required; and • Recommended for approval.

Report: (Manager, Development & Compliance – T.M. Stenholm) 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The Proposal Application is made for a new medical centre incorporating a pharmacy and café. The existing dwellings on site are to be demolished to facilitate the development. As a result of discussions with staff from Council and the Department of Main Roads (acting as a Concurrence Agency) the proposal has been amended several times, with the plans now presented for assessment most recently submitted on 3 April, 2008. Given the topography the site will be excavated to result in three (3) levels (as opposed to storeys) comprising of a basement carpark, a lower level and a ground level (fronting Channon Street). Key elements of the application (as taken from the supporting material attached to the application) include:

café and pharmacy located at the front section of a small pedestrian mall off Channon Street with the medical uses abutting and positioned more central within the building;

medical and directly related ancillary uses are provided on the lower level with administrative type uses (purportedly attracting lower visitor numbers) positioned towards Queen Street;

80 car parking spaces with 76 covered;



provision for ambulance parking; single storey appearance to Channon Street with minimum 6 metre

setback; and attempted retention of architectural elements in surrounding dwellings

for the buildings frontage to Queen Street. No specific operating hours have been nominated, other than stating ‘standard business hours’ to apply. Approval is not sought for overnight medical related services. The application is supported by: - a proposal report; - a traffic impact assessment; and - a consultation report, summarising discussions with affected residents in

Queen Street.



















1.2 Site Description The development site consists of three (3) titles, located at 70 & 72 Channon Street and 7 Queen Street approximately 600 metres north of the Gympie central business area. It has a combined area of 2 865m2 and each lot is improved by a dwelling, all proposed to be removed to facilitate the development. 1.3 Surrounding Land Uses The site is adjoined by the Channon Street Medical Centre to the west, Cooloola Private Hospital to the east and existing residences adjoining the lot in Queen Street. 2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS 2.1 Planning Scheme The application was lodged on 27 March 2007 under the 2005 planning scheme. Under the scheme the lots are all zoned Housing, with Lot 2 RP46441 and Lot 2 RP77034 also included in the Medical Preferred Use Area (see zoning plan below).



The uses applied for, as defined by the planning scheme are Commercial Premises (Medical Centre), Shop (Pharmacy) and Food or Entertainment Venue (Café). 2.2 Compliance with the Planning Scheme The application is subject to code assessment, with development of Lot 1 RP46441 (fronting Queen Street) being an Inconsistent Use. Given the zoning of the site in Queen Street, Council has not yet made any policy decisions to expand the medical precinct as mapped above. Despite this, support for this application and potential is offered given the following considerations: - the development is over three (3) titles with its orientation towards

Channon Street; - no adverse submissions were received from residents in Queen Street in

relation to the proposal; - Queen Street is constructed to a suitable standard to accommodate the

additional traffic generated by the development; - having an additional access point onto Queen Street will assist in

alleviating traffic concerns on Channon Street; - the proposed building design has attempted to maintain a similar setback

to adjoining residential properties; and - potential amenity issues with existing residences are considered able to be

addressed through landscaping and fencing. The following codes are applicable. Gympie Planning Area Code The development of the two (2) sites fronting Channon Street are not an inconsistent use in the Housing zone given they involve medical related services. Issues raised by the code include light, noise and air emissions; height; setbacks; flood protection; building design, and location of vehicle parking areas, plant and equipment and refuse storage areas. Light, noise and air emissions Any night lighting is proposed to be positioned shielded and directed to not create a nuisance to surrounding premises or traffic and can be conditioned as such. Solid, two (2) metre high fencing is recommended to be conditioned along common boundaries with existing residential properties fronting Queen Street.



In this regard there are no issues raised with noise and air emissions from the development as it fronts Channon Street, given the existing adjoining commercial uses. Height The building proposes two (2) storeys, as defined by the planning scheme, and an overall height of 11 metres. Elevations submitted demonstrate the proposed building will achieve a maximum height of less than 8.5 metres above natural ground level, given the excavation proposed. This is compliant with planning scheme requirements for the housing zone. Setbacks The building achieves complying front boundary setbacks to Channon and Queen Street, however the roof on the lower level fronting Queen Street encroaches slightly beyond this. Setbacks to adjoining residential properties in Queen Street are proposed at 3.0 metres (again with the roof line above encroaching slightly beyond this) which does not accord with the minimum 5.0 metres nominated by the planning scheme. Justification submitted to warrant the setbacks proposed include: - elevations incorporating a range of building features such as balconies,

verandahs and outdoor recreation areas to create visual interest and active frontages; and

- landscaping areas are to be provided along all boundaries to ensure appropriate soft planting is established to reduce the visual impact of the minor building encroachments.

Flood protection The proposed building is well above the contour level for a Q100 flood event. Location of vehicle parking areas, plant and equipment and refuse storage areas All plant and equipment is proposed to be located at the rear of the main building and will not be visible from the street. In response to adjoining residents’ concerns the applicant intends to locate all plant and equipment within visually appropriate acoustically treated enclosures. A condition to reflect this intention has been recommended. Refuse is proposed to be stored in the basement parking area. Erosion and Sediment Control Code Standard erosion and sediment control requirements will be appropriately placed on the subsequent applications for building and operational work.



Infrastructure Works Code The development will be connected to Council’s reticulated water supply and sewerage systems with headwork’s charges for both being applicable. Channon and Queen Streets are both fully constructed urban roads with kerb and channelling. The design report indicates the Channon Street frontage requires reconstruction to correct an excessive crossfall. Additionally, existing access driveways are to be reinstated with kerb and channel. An existing footpath fronts the development site to Channon Street. A contribution in lieu of a footpath along the Queen Street frontage has been included in the recommendation. Vehicle Parking and Access Code Parking for the proposal is required by the planning scheme at the following rates: Commercial Premises (medical related) 5.5 spaces per 100m2 gfa Commercial Premises 3.5 spaces per 100m2 gfa Shop 6 spaces per 100m2 gfa Food or entertainment venue 5.5 spaces per 100m2 gfa The amended traffic assessment submitted with the latest plans provides a car parking assessment in support of the 80 spaces proposed, based on the following gross floor areas for the uses proposed (which differ to those originally submitted): Commercial premises 1 361m2 gfa Shop 250m2 gfa Food or entertainment venue 150m2 gfa. Using these calculations and the planning scheme rates a total of 87 spaces are required. Justification for a reduction of seven (7) spaces includes co-location of other medical facilities, opportunities for alternative modes of transport such as walking and cycling and the pharmacy and café being ancillary functions of the medical centre and not lone traffic generators. The grounds submitted are considered valid and given the extent of non-compliance the car parking as proposed is considered adequate. A condition restricting the development to the gross floor areas used in the car parking calculations is recommended.



Landscaping Code Landscaping requirements as nominated by the planning scheme are as follows: (a) along all frontages – landscaped areas a minimum 2 metres wide at any

point and averaging 3 metres wide; (b) along all boundaries with lots used for dwelling house or zoned Housing

– landscaped areas a minimum 2 metres wide at any point and averaging 3 metres wide; and

(c) car parking areas – (i) shade trees not less than 2 metres high at the time of planting, at the

following rate:- - one tree per six parking spaces; or - five trees per 1000m2 of site area; and (ii) each planting bed for a shade tree: - has a minimum area of 2m2; and - is unsealed, permeable and bollarded to exclude vehicles; and (iii) a landscape area a minimum 1.5 metres wide between the car park

and any buildings or structures. The application proposes the following: • a landscaped buffer with a width varying between 2 and 6 metres along

the Channon Street frontage; and • a one (1) metre wide landscaped buffer along the length of the eastern

and western boundaries. In support of the reduced landscaping the applicant submits the following: - the rear building line is consistent with the building line of the adjoining

medical building; - fencing and landscaping is proposed along the length of all boundaries; - all boundary setbacks enables landscaping to be established within them

to appropriately screen the proposed development. The applicant submits conditions may be recommended ensuring adequate buffering species are planted within these areas.

Landscaping is not considered necessary within the proposed car parking area given it is largely covered. 2.3 Local and/or State Planning Policies There are no State Planning Policies applicable to the application. Local planning policy in relation to headworks applies which is currently calculated on gross floor areas of the uses applied for.



The estimated gross floor areas submitted with the application are as follows: Pharmacy 345m2 Café 200m2 Commercial Premises (Medical Centre) 1 420m2, however the latest traffic assessment submitted indicates the following gfa calculations for the purposes of car parking requirements: Commercial premises 1 361m2 gfa Shop 250m2 gfa Food or entertainment venue 150m2 gfa. Given the likelihood of minor amendments to the proposal during more detailed design, a condition is recommended reflective of the current ep rates attached to each land use in the policy. 3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 3.1 Site Access and Traffic The application was supported by a traffic impact assessment prepared by DM Hayes Traffic Engineering Consultant. Assessment of this report and its recommendations is included in the design report following. 3.2 Staff Amenities Workplace Health and Safety legislation may require the provision of staff amenities such as a toilet and lunchroom. Depending on the type of structures proposed building and/or plumbing approval may be required for these. Given the employees proposed water provided on-site should be of a potable standard and therefore treated in accordance with National Guidelines. 4.0 CONSULTATION 4.1 Internal (a) Department of Engineering Report: (Infrastructure Planning Manager – A. Laszlo) This engineering report is based on the report submitted by Martoo Consulting dated March 2007 and subsequent information submitted with particular reference to drawing A01B, A02B, A03A, A04A, A05A, A06A, A07A and A08A dated 13/12/07 for revision A and dated 12/02/08 for revision B.



TRAFFIC A traffic impact study was conducted by DM Hayes Traffic Engineering Consultant dated February 2008. The submitted traffic generation rate of 229 trips peak hour for the proposed development is comparable with industry guidelines. The Department of Main Roads as the Concurrence Agency provided conditions allowing only left-in to the development with limited access onto Channon Street. Therefore most generated traffic from the proposed development of 81 car parks will utilise Queen Street. The Department of Main Roads has also imposed a condition that a “No Parking Any Time” zone be provided extending 20m west of the entry driveway to the exit driveway. This will remove four (4) existing on-street car parking spaces on Channon Street. Currently the existing peak hour traffic flow for Queen Street is estimated at 50vph with the last actual traffic count on 2002 showing 33vph. The proposed development will generate a traffic flow of 185vph in Queen Street for non restricted flows and with 37 entry and 7 exit from/to Channon Street. Combined with the existing traffic flow Queen Street traffic will be increased to 225vph. This increase would place considerable pressure on the function and safety of the two intersections off Queen Street resulting 70vph turning left onto Louisa Street and 98vph turning right onto Lawrence Street. The traffic report considered further two alternative scenarios. First alternative, left in only from Channon Street with left out only onto Queen Street and no entry permitted from Queen Street. This alternative resulted in 197 vph turning left onto Louisa Street and the existing traffic flow remained for vehicles turning right onto Lawrence Street. Second alternative, left in only from Channon Street with left-in and left-out in Queen Street. This alternative resulted in 160vph turning left onto Louisa Street and the existing traffic flow remained for vehicles turning right onto Lawrence Street. Of the three options discussed in the report, it is considered the original non-restricted access in Queen Street is preferable as it allows more opportunities for traffic to disperse.



The report did not analyse the intersections off Queen Street as the Austroads Code specifies that intersection analysis is unnecessary for the traffic volumes considered. It should be noted that the two intersections off Queen Street have limited sight visibility due the nature of the steep topography of the local area and the curved alignment of the major through roads and require upgrading. Further analysis road safety audit of these intersections regarding the immediate and long term safety should be undertaken and any works identified as required carried out by the applicant. However as stated above the submitted traffic generation rate of 229 trips peak hour would all flow onto Queen Street even though there is access from Channon Street a state controlled road. Therefore a contribution of $67,348 is justified. (It should be noted that under the new urban policy this would be in the order $760,280). FRONTAGE ROAD / ACCESS / CARPARKING The proposed development site has two frontages. The Channon Street frontage is constructed with kerb and channel with a concrete footpath. However, the frontage requires reconstruction to correct the excessive crossfall. The Queen Street frontage is constructed with kerb and channel without a footpath. However a contribution of $1,944 in lieu of construction would be more beneficial to be used in the general area. The proposed access driveways are in a different location to the existing accesses. Abandoned access driveways should be reinstated with kerb and channel and the footpath verge reconstructed to Council’s standard including concrete pathway where it exists. The access driveway, car parking and loading area is to comply with AS2890.1 and AS2890.2 and possibly for garbage truck access. EARTHWORKS The development site is steep with a 10% grade. To accommodate the proposed development the site will require considerable amounts of cut and fill earthworks with associated earth retaining structures. Following preliminary design investigations at the operational works stage the development may need to be altered to comply with the Planning Scheme and car parking/access Australian Standards.



STORMWATER / FLOODING The development site falls from Channon Street to Queen Street. The proposed development would be close to 100% impervious stormwater runoff due to the car park and roof area covering most of the site. If the stormwater is discharged to the kerb and channel in Queen Street it may flow directly across the road due to the one-way cross fall and cause safety issues. Therefore the stormwater discharge from the development should be piped to Council’s existing stormwater drain in Louisa Street and the downstream drainage upgraded to meet the increased discharge in conjunction with the intersection upgrading. Council may be required to contribute some costs towards this downstream upgrading. WATER / SEWERAGE Both services are available with adequate capacity in each. Headwork’s charges are applicable based on Council’s Policy. New upgraded connections will be required with Trade Waste policy applicable. An existing sewer line traverses the site therefore building set backs apply from this sewer line or reconstructed due to the proposed earthworks cut to the eastern side of the site. SERVICES The developer will be required to provide electrical and communication services to the site with any upgrades to the developers costs. Street lighting is adequate in Channon Street but significant upgrading is required in Queen Street and the two intersections due to its changing status. MISCELLANEOUS Main Roads Department as a Concurrence Agency assessed the application. All Department of Main Roads conditions to apply as outlined. Car park lighting could impact adversely on adjoining properties if not directly focused. SUBMISSIONS The Access Advisory Committee requires between 3% - 4% of car park spaces to be for disabled use. GENERAL COMMENTS The traffic to be generated in Queen Street will significantly change its status from a local access street to a Collector Street. This approval could also lead to similar applications that have Channon Street frontages and Queen Street car parks. Town Planning opinion and advice should be considered in this regard.



(b) Health and Environmental Services Conditions in relation to refuse management, including disposal of medical waste, and food hygiene have been provided and included in the recommendation. 4.2 External (a) Department of Main Roads The application was required to be referred to the Department of Main Roads as a Concurrence Agency, given the site adjoins Channon Street, being a state-controlled road. Following negotiations between the applicant and Council the Department has issued conditional approval for the proposal subject to: - installation of a ‘no parking anytime’ zone along Channon Street; - road access works shown on proposal plans constructed in accordance

with Council’s standards; and - no worsening of future stormwater runoff from the proposed development. The requirements of Department of Main Roads will form part of any approval issued by Council. (b) Nearby Residents The proposal was not required to be formally advertised however consultation with affected residents and the general public was undertaken in the form of a formal consultation plan (undertaken by a consultancy group engaged by the applicant) and letters sent by Council to nearby residents. Comments obtained from residents, as included in the report, indicated a largely positive response following dissemination of factual information in relation to the proposal. Minor concerns outlined in the consultation summary related to a potential increase in traffic in Queen Street and the need for vegetative buffers adjoining existing residences. No formal submissions were received by Council in relation to the development. (c) Cooloola Access Advisory Committee The application was referred to the Committee for comments who have provided recommended conditions to be attached to any approval to ensure compliance with Australian Standards.



5.0 CONCLUSION The proposal represents an appropriate use of the sites fronting Channon Street and is generally in accordance with planning scheme requirements for a commercial development. Amenity and traffic impacts posed by the incorporation of a site fronting Queen Street are considered acceptable and manageable.

2/2 DA12756 – Request to Change an Existing Approval for Reconfiguring a Lot –

Subdivision to Create 54 additional lots – Waldock & Groundwater Roads, Southside – Gympie South Developments Pty Ltd

Re: Minute: P21/09/08 Request to Change an Existing Approval for

Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to Create 54 additional lots – Waldock & Groundwater Roads, Southside.

From: Martoo Consulting on behalf of Gympie South Developments Pty Ltd File: DA12756 Date: 13 February 2008 and 1 September 2008



Report: (Planning Officer – K.M.Toomey) A Request to Change the above approval was refused at Council’s Planning and Development Committee meeting held on 6 August 2008 and the applicant was advised accordingly. Council’s refusal of the request was consistent with the Planning Officer’s recommendation and subsequent grounds for such. The applicant has since submitted the following letter on 1 September 2008, requesting that the proposal be reconsidered by Council. The letter is reproduced below.







The applicant claims that the proposal was previously supported by a former Planning Officer within Council. Any such verbal advice would have been provided on a preliminary or informal basis and is in no way binding on Council. In any event, the former staff member in question has been contacted and denies providing any such verbal advice to the applicant’s consultants. The information and grounds for refusal provided in the original report to Council are still considered to be applicable and should be kept in mind when a review of the request is considered.



The original report is reproduced below. Report: (Planning Officer – KM Toomey) 1.0 INTRODUCTION The applicant lodged a request to change an existing approval for the above application on 13 February 2008. The applicant wishes to change the proposed layout in order to facilitate the inclusion of an adjoining lot, which the developer has purchased in order to allow for adequate stormwater drainage for the previously approved residential development.

Approved Plan



2.0 REQUESTED CHANGE The land now proposed to be included is wholly below the Q100 flood contour. The applicant wishes to divide this former balance area into a number of allotments as shown on the below plan.



The applicant has provided the following grounds in support of the application:

• “The proposed amendment will result in creation of unique housing lots with small rural holding attached for use as a pony paddock or similar;

• The proposed new lots are not able to be subdivided further for residential purposes due to the location of the Q100 flood line and inability to provide suitable building areas;

• The size of the proposed rural holdings prevent the use of the new lots for intensive rural activities;

• The proposal will allow for the efficient on-site disposal of stormwater drainage for the approved housing development;

• The proposed new lots will allow for the efficient use of rural land which is otherwise unusable given the surrounding encroachment of housing development;

• The proposed new lots will be able to be easily maintained; • The proposal will not compromise the development of surrounding

properties; and • The proposal will result in housing lots which have excellent amenity

and can be utilised for a range of non-intensive rural activities.” 3.0 ASSESSMENT The land is good quality agricultural land based on Council’s mapping and its alienation would be in conflict with the resource areas code of the planning scheme and SPP 1/92 – Development and the Conservation of Agricultural Land. The proposal would result in a number of allotments taking on a rural nature in an urban setting. A condition on the original approval required fencing to separate housing and potential rural land uses (cattle grazing etc). The creation of a number of small rural style allotments would have the potential to result in additional residential/rural land use conflicts. The retention of the lot in one large rural parcel would logically indicate that a single rural use would occur on the site, which could largely be screened from the adjoining residential allotments. Amenity concerns are also raised in regard to the “Rural Land Use Entitlements” that the lots would enjoy. The entitlements would allow for self assessable development to occur potentially in the form of rural farm sheds and structures significantly larger than those able to be accommodated on the smaller residential lots.



Concern is also raised with the large lots being connected to Council’s reticulated water supply and the inability to effectively regulate appropriate usage of this resource for residential purposes as apposed to rural pursuits, such as broad acre irrigation. Further, the retention of the entire flood prone area in one balance lot is desirable from a maintenance perspective and in regards to the future development potential of the site. Although the site is subject to inundation by the current Q100 flood level, should the flood level alter due to any future upstream works being undertaken, the development potential of the site would be severely compromised by the creation of multiple titles. 4.0 CONCURRENCE AGENCY ASSESSMENT Queensland Transport, as a concurrence agency to the original application, indicated that they have no further requirements in relation to the proposed amendments. 5.0 CONCLUSION It is recommended that Council not support the proposed amendment to the existing approval. The creation of small rural holdings with full access to Council’s reticulated services is considered undesirable in a predominately urban setting. The likelihood of adverse impacts on residential amenity, conflicting land uses and the potential of the amendment to compromise the future development potential of the site is further cause for refusal of the request.

P07/08/08 Moved: Cr R.J. Dyne Seconded: Cr R.A. Gâté That Council, as Assessment Manager, REFUSE the Request to Change an Existing Approval for Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to Create 54 additional lots over Lot 5 MPH23396 located at Groundwater & Waldock Road, Southside, based on the following grounds: 1. The change would place the development in conflict with the Resource

Areas Code of Council’s Planning Scheme and SPP 1/92 - Development and the Conservation of Agricultural Land;

2. Likely land use conflicts between residential and small rural allotments; 3. Adverse impacts on residential amenity within the development due to the

small rural lots maintaining rural land use entitlements; and 4. Retention of the balance area in one parcel improves maintenance and

does not compromise the potential for future development of the site. Carried.



P21/09/08 Moved: Cr L.J. Friske Seconded: Cr G.L. Engeman

Recommend that Council, as assessment manager, APPROVE the request to change an existing development approval for DA12756 for Preliminary Approval to Override the Planning Scheme (Housing Subdivision) and Reconfiguring a Lot– Subdivision to Create 58 Additional Lots in Five Stages at Groundwater Road, Southside and issue an amended decision notice incorporating: (i) amendment to condition reflecting new approved plan.

2/3 2008-0632 – Operational Work - Advertising Devices (Two (2) Free Standing

Non-moving Signs) and Building Work (Class 10b Signs) – 287 Chatsworth Road, Two Mile – Trevor Zerner

FILE: Minute: P22/09/08 & P23/09/08

2008-0632 APPLICANT: Trevor Zerner LANDOWNER: Gary John Goodman-Jones RPD: Lot 64 on SP153723 SITE: 287 Chatsworth Road, Two Mile PROPOSAL: Operational Work – Advertising

Devices (Two (2) Free Standing Non-moving Signs) and Building Work (Class 10b Signs)

EXISTING ZONE: Rural PLANNING AREA: Rural LEVEL OF ASSESSMENT: Code Assessable



KEY POINT SUMMARY • Combined Operational Work and Building Work application for Two

(2) Advertising Devices in the form of “double sided billboards”. • Site is zoned Rural and located on the northern entrance/exit of Gympie • Each device has the following attributes:- - Sign face area: 21.6m2 - Height: 6.0 metres and 8.0 metres - Dimensions: 6.0m x 3.6m. • Site currently has two (2) “double sided billboards” and one (1) “single

sided sign” • Site frontage is approximately 520m. Requirement for signs to be

placed minimum 500m apart. • Inspection of 3.5km stretch of Bruce Highway from Pinewood Avenue

intersection to Vantage Road intersection estimates approximately 25 signs.

• Additional signage would add to visual clutter along lead-in road to Gympie and would unfavourably detract from the entry experience

• Application recommended for refusal Report: (Administration Officer – S.A. Capell) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application seeks approval for two (2) advertising devices in the form of a 6m high and 8m high “double billboard”.



The site of 287 Chatsworth Road, Two Mile (Bruce Highway) is situated on the northern entrance to Gympie, opposite the Two Mile State School/Wadell Road Industrial complex.





2.0 ASSESSMENT The proposal is Code Assessable and is subject to assessment against the Advertising Devices Code. Assessment against the Code indicates the proposal does not comply with Acceptable/Probable Solution A/PS-6 b.:- A/PS-6: There is a minimum distance of 500 metres between any sign, being

a moving sign, freestanding non-moving sign or three-dimensional sign, on any frontage to the following sections of road: a. … b. the Bruce Highway from its intersection with the southern

frontage of Purcell Road and the southern frontage of Greenhalgh Road to its intersection with the southern boundary of Lot 74 CP883704 (now Lot 1 on SP177854) and the southern boundary of Lot 173 SP153723.

c. … d. … e. …



Site Plan

The site subject of the application has a frontage to the Bruce Highway of approximately 520m and currently has two (2) double sided signs and one (1) single sided sign. The proposed signs would be located between 70m-85m from existing signs on the site and would not comply with A/PS-6 b. Specific Outcome 6 (SO-6) relates to cumulative impact of signs and reads: “Visual clutter along lead-in roads to towns does not unfavourably detract from the entry experience.” An inspection of signs along a 3.5km section of the Bruce Highway from the Pinewood Avenue intersection, north to the Vantage Road intersection estimates approximately 25 existing signs. The proposed signs are not considered to enhance the entry experience and would add to existing visual clutter along the Bruce Highway on the northern entrance/exit to Gympie.

Lot 173 on

SP153723

Lot 11 on SP177854

(formerly Lot 74 on CP883704)



3.0 CONCLUSION The site is located in close proximity to the northern entrance/exit to Gympie on the Bruce Highway and has existing signage in place that does not comply with Council’s current Advertising Devices Code. The proposal for additional signage has been recommended for refusal. Additional signage on this site would not comply with the Specific Outcome or Acceptable/Probable Solution regarding cumulative impact of signs. Furthermore, the proposal does not comply with the Overall Outcomes of the Advertising Devices Code in that the proposal is not designed, placed and integrated to minimise visual clutter and would further detract from the visual amenity of approaches to settlements and major transit routes.

P22/09/08 Moved: Cr J.A. Walker Seconded: Cr L.J. Friske Recommend that Council, as Assessment Manager, REFUSE development application 2008-0632 for Operational Work – Advertising Devices (Two (2) Free Standing Non-moving Signs) and Building Work (Class 10b Signs) over Lot 64 on SP153723 located at 287 Chatsworth Road, Two Mile on the following grounds: 1.

• Reconfiguring a Lot application recommended for Approval subject to conditions.

Report: (Planning Officer – K.M. Toomey) 1.0 INTRODUCTION This application seeks Council’s approval for Reconfiguring a Lot to allow the creation of an additional rural allotment on Percival Road, Chatsworth. 1.1 The Site

The development site is located on the corner of Percival and Rammutt Roads, Chatsworth. The site has an area of 5.315 hectares and is generally a regular shaped allotment. The land has approximately 200 metres of frontage to Percival Road, which is constructed to a 5 metre bitumen seal standard for the first 60 metres and a gravel standard for the remainder of the road. The allotment also has approximately 60 metres of frontage to Rammutt Road, which is constructed to a 4.5 metre bitumen seal standard. The site is currently improved by a single dwelling, associated outbuildings and a dam.



The majority of the site has been cleared previously to facilitate grazing and general rural uses and is classified as containing small sections of both Class A and Class B Good Quality Agricultural Land. The remaining vegetation on the site is not mapped as being of significance for conservation purposes. The topography is undulating with varying slopes generally between 10 and 14%. The site also contains a defined natural waterway in the north-eastern corner. 1.2 The Proposal The proposal comprises reconfiguring the land to create one (1) additional rural lot of approximately 1.06 hectares and a balance lot with an approximate area of 4.255 hectares. The proposed layout is reproduced below.

1.3 Surrounding Land Use The surrounding land directly to the east and west of the site is predominately characterised by small rural allotments ranging in size from 7 975m2 to 2.001 hectares. Larger rural allotments are situated to both the north and south of the site and are predominately utilised for agricultural purposes.



Areas of Rural Residential development are also located, approximately 600 to 800 metres from the development site, in the north-east, south-east and west directions.

Zoning Map 2.0 STATUTORY REQUIREMENTS 2.1 Compliance with the Planning Scheme 2.1.1 Scheme Definition Under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Council 2005 Planning Scheme, Reconfiguring a Lot is ‘Code Assessable’ development. 2.1.2 Planning Scheme Provisions Under the arrangements of the Cooloola Shire Council Planning Scheme 2005, the proposed development is assessable against the codes outlined below. Gympie Planning Area Code The proposed development is consistent with the majority of Overall Outcomes sought for the Gympie Planning Area.



Reconfiguring a Lot Code Provisions for rural allotments include: - Minimum 100 hectare lot size; - Minimum frontage of 100m per allotment; - House sites on slopes no greater than 15%; and - Building envelopes of 2 000m2, above the Q100 flood level and able to

accommodate suitable on-site effluent disposal. The site is unable to meet the minimum lot size of 100 hectares for subdivision in the Rural Zone. The surrounding area consists of highly fragmented rural allotments and the parcels immediately to the east and west of the site are of a similar lot size to that proposed as part of this development. Proposed Lot 2 is considered able to provide a suitable 2 000m2 building envelope with a gradient less than 15% and above the Q100 flood level. As the proposed additional lot exceeds 2 hectares and is not unduly constrained by physical features, suitable on-site effluent disposal is considered able to be achieved. An existing dwelling is already in place upon proposed Lot 1. The site represents the only likely lot in the immediate vicinity, which possesses adequate merit for subdivision. Given the adjoining lot sizes and the likely community expectation within the area, the proposed development is considered consistent with the majority of Overall Outcomes sought for the Reconfiguring a Lot Code, despite the inability to comply with the nominated minimum lot size. Infrastructure Works Code The proposal is generally able to meet the requirements of the Infrastructure Works Code for the Rural Zone, which does not require sealed road surfaces in order to facilitate development. Landscaping Code Street trees are not generally required as part of subdivisions in the Rural Zone. Resource Areas Code The Resource Area Code is intended to preserve Good Quality Agricultural Land (GQAL) present within rural areas. The development site contains small sections of both Class A and Class B GQAL in the north-east and north-west corners of the allotment. As the mapped sections of GQAL are proposed to be located entirely within proposed Lot 2, the development is consistent with the majority of Overall Outcomes sought for the Gympie Planning Area.



Overlay Map 8 – Good Quality Agricultural Land 2.2 Local and/or State Planning Policies Current Council mapping suggests only small sections in the north-eastern and north-western corners of the site contain both Class A and Class B Good Quality Agricultural Land (GQAL). The development proposes the creation of a small lot in the south-west corner of the site, with the remainder of the land to be retained in a balance lot. The larger balance lot is still able to be utilised for viable agricultural purposes in conjunction with adjoining larger holdings to the north of the site and the overall agricultural merit of the allotment is unlikely to be reduced as a result. The development is therefore considered to comply with the overall intent of State Planning Policy 1/92 Development and the Conservation of Agricultural Land. No other State Planning Policies are considered applicable.



3.0 PLANNING CONSIDERATIONS 3.1 Impact on Amenity No amenity concerns are raised by the proposal given the adjoining small rural allotments. 3.2 Site Access and Traffic Consideration of road connections to adjoining lots is not required as adjoining sites all have access to suitable standard of roads within the Rural Zone and there is very limited potential for additional subdivision within the immediate area. Council’s Design Services Division has recommended upgrading of Percival Road to a sealed standard to the full frontage of this development. However, rural roads of this type are not required to be sealed under Council’s current Planning Scheme provisions. Due to very limited subdivision potential existing within the immediate area and the likely community expectation that upgrading of the road may infer additional future subdivision entitlements, it is recommended that Percival Road not be upgraded to a sealed standard as part of this development. A contribution towards road improvements is however considered warranted due to the increased traffic that the proposal is likely to generate. Refer to Design Services report for further details regarding traffic and access. 3.3 Flooding The site is not known to be subject to flooding. 3.4 Vegetation No significant vegetation is mapped as occurring on the site and a subsequent site inspection has also confirmed this to be the case. 3.5 Site Contamination This site is not listed on the Environmental Management Register.



4.0 CONSULTATION

4.1 Internal

a) Design Department

Report: (Design Services Technical Officer – A.C. Walsh)

This report is based on the information submitted by the applicant to subdivide

Lot 2 RP 858762, 4 Percival Road, Chatsworth into two lots. The original lot is situated in the Rural zone.

FRONTAGE ROADS Rammutt Road is constructed to a two lane bitumen standard. Percival Road

for the first 60 metres is 5 metres wide bitumen seal and the remainder being gravel. Council should require the unsealed section of Percival Road to be constructed to a 4.5 metre bitumen seal (half width road) on a 7.0 metre formation from the end of the bitumen seal to the full frontage of Lot 2.

ROAD CONTRIBUTION As this area is zoned Rural, Council’s Planning Scheme Policy No. 12 Sealed

Roads Contribution for Designated Rural Residential Areas does not apply. However, Council should apply a road contribution equivalent to this amount ie $10,547.

4.2 External No Concurrence or Advice Agencies are applicable to the proposal. 5.0 CONCLUSION The application proposes a logical consolidation of the small rural lots fronting Percival Road. Although subdivisions in the Rural Zone under the minimum lot size are rarely supported, sufficient planning grounds exist in order to recommend approval of this particular proposal.

5/2 Letter from David Gibson MP – H & J Osthaug – 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston

Re: Minute: P29/09/08 Letter from David Gibson re H & J Osthaug –

146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston From: David Gibson MP File: 6/4/05/0009 Date: 3 September 2008 Letter from David Gibson MP “I have been approached by a constituent of mine, Mr Helge Osthaug who, due to both severe financial and personal hardship, wishes to subdivide a block off his property at 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston. Mr Osthaug requires the money that the sale of a subdivided lot off his property would provide to pay his mortgage and fund the medical expenses associated with treating his lung cancer. Mr Osthaug has tried to sell his property as a whole, however the announcement by Main Roads that option (1) would cut diagonally through his property has made their property unsalable despite a significant drop in their asking price. As a result of being unsuccessful in selling his property as a whole and upon their real estate agent stating that smaller acreage is selling well, Mr Osthaug is no hoping to obtain some financial relief by subdividing one smaller block off his property and trying to sell that. I request that the Council exercise discretion with regards to Mr Osthaug’s circumstances and allow an exemption from 100 hectares being the minimum lot size for new allotments and thus grant approval for one additional lot to be subdivided.”

P29/09/08 Moved: Cr G.L. Engeman Seconded: Cr R.J. Dyne Recommend that the attached correspondence be forwarded to David Gibson MP and ask him to arrange a deputation with the Mayor and Minister for Local Government and Main Roads.

ATTACHEMENT 1

Our Ref: 6/4/05/0009 MH/KJS00167

(DATE) Mr David Gibson MP Member for Gympie PO Box 1277 GYMPIE QLD 4570 Dear Sir,

Re: Mr Helge Osthaug – 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston Thank you for your letter dated 2 September 2008 regarding a proposal by Mr Helge Osthaug to subdivide property at 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston. This proposal was considered by the former Cooloola Shire Council in February of this year, and again by Gympie Regional Council in June. A copy of Council’s correspondence dated 16 June 2008 to Mr Osthaug is attached for your information, together with an extract from the Planning and Development Committee meeting held on 4 June 2008. As outlined in Council’s letter, personal circumstances can no longer be relied on as sufficient planning grounds to warrant approval of developments in conflict with Council’s documented planning intentions. The attached extract from the Planning and Development Committee meeting outlines the reasons why Council is not in a position to support the proposed subdivision, and those reasons are reflected in Council’s letter to Mr Osthaug. Council is aware of and empathises with Mr Ostgaug’s financial and personal situation, however Council cannot be influenced by such circumstances in the objective assessment of a subdivision proposal against the relevant provisions of its planning scheme. I trust the above information is of assistance to you. Please contact Council’s Director of Planning & Development Mike Hartley, should you wish to discuss this matter further. Yours faithfully, for K.A. MASON CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER

RE: Request to Waive Fees & Reconfiguring a Lot – Subdivision to Create One (1) Additional Lot

over Lot 3 RP907508 – 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston Your correspondence received 7 February 2008 in relation to the above matter was considered at Council’s General Meeting held on 11 June 2008. At this meeting Council resolved to advise that subdivision of the above property is not currently supported by the planning scheme for the following reasons: (i) the site is zoned Rural where the minimum lot size for new allotments is

100 hectares; (ii) site constraints currently include remnant vegetation, good quality

agricultural land and environmental values which further preclude subdivision; and

(iii) there do not appear to be any site specific or overriding circumstances that warrant subdivision approval of the lot.

Further, that personal circumstances can no longer be relied on as sufficient grounds to warrant approval of developments in conflict with Council’s documented planning intentions. Should you require any further information please contact Tania Stenholm of Council's Planning & Development Department on (07) 5481 0644. Yours faithfully signed by Michael Hartley for K.A.

Fees re a Proposal to Subdivide one (1) Additional Lot from Lot 3 RP 907508 – 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston – H & J Oathaug

From: H & J Osthaug File: DG00080 Date: 4 February, 2008 “For Cooloola Shire Council’s consideration we ask that our proposal to subdivide one additional lot from L3/RP907508 be approved ‘in principle’. Please see attached sketch. In October 2005 we put our property up for sale to pay our mortgage and trade down. Soon after the Department of Main Roads released their (Cooroy to Curra) strategic planning study with option S(1) running diagonally through our property. This made our property unsaleable. Department of Main Roads has steadfastly refused to purchase our property on hardship grounds despite repeated requests. Since then rising interest rates, escalating credit costs and increased living expenses have gradually put us in a situation this is presently verging on untenable. Over the last year our asking price has been reduced considerably from the real estate agents recommended price. The real estate agent maintains that smaller acreage is still selling well. If our proposal is supported by the Cooloola Shire Council we ask that the application fee be waived for the formal application”.





Report: (Interim Manager Development & Compliance – T.M. Stenholm) This matter was previously reported to Cooloola Shire Council’s Planning and Development Committee Meeting held on 26 February 2008. A copy of the previous report including Council’s resolution is reproduced below. ‘Report: (Senior Planning Officer – T.M. Stenholm) 1.0 Introduction The above correspondence, received by Council on 7 February, 2008, requests Council’s ‘in principle’ support for a proposed subdivision at Traveston. The proposed allotment is approximately 2.64 hectares in area and has an access handle of around 260 metres in length. The writer met with the Director of Planning and Development on 1 February, 2008, where the particular circumstances as discussed in the letter were outlined. 2.0 Planning Comment The subject site is 11.9 hectares in area and zoned Rural in Council’s planning scheme. As a result, subdivision of the property does not accord with the minimum lot size of the rural zone, being 100 hectares.



Additionally, the following overlays would apply to any application to subdivide the property: (i) Good Quality Agricultural Land; (ii) Koala Habitat Area; and (iii) Local Ecosystem Value Area. The site is also affected by remnant ‘of concern’ and ‘not of concern’ vegetation, as identified in the Vegetation Management Act and, as such, a development application would require referral to the Department of Natural Resources and Water as a Concurrence Agency. Most recent mapping provided by the Department of Main Roads indicates the proposed Bruce Highway is some 2.8 kilometres from the lot. (See map following.)

P37/02/08 Moved: Cr MJ Venardos OAM Seconded: Cr ME Prior Recommend that the matter be referred to the Gympie Regional Council. Carried. The recommendation below is as previously suggested to Cooloola Shire Council.



Recommendation: (Director of Planning and Development – M. Hartley) That Council advise the writers that subdivision of Lot 3 RP907508 located at 146 Tandur-Traveston Road, Traveston is not currently supported by the planning scheme for the following reasons: (i) the site is zoned Rural where the minimum lot size for new allotments

is 100 hectares; (ii) site constraints currently include remnant vegetation, good quality

5/3 Proposed Amendment to Schedule of Fees and Charges 2008/09 Re: Minute: P30/09/08 Proposed Amendment of Schedule of Fees and

Charges 2008/09 From: Director of Planning and Development – M. Hartley File: FG94/00045 Date: 8 September 2008

Report: (Director of Planning & Development – M. Hartley) The Schedule of Fees and Charges for the 2008/09 financial year does not include a specific fee for development applications proposing use rights or entitlements on a particular property similar to those from another zone. For example, the application fee for land use entitlements consistent with the Industry zone over land currently zoned Rural is calculated on total use area, which can result in a fee far exceeding the principle of revenue neutrality. It is suggested that Council introduce a new fee for applications of this nature. Because most development sites the subject of these types of applications are large, a per-hectare fee is considered to be the most appropriate method of calculating the fee. Also, by their very nature, applications of this type typically propose land uses that would be inconsistent with the planning scheme, so the X2 multiplier would ordinarily apply. An appropriate fee is considered to be $1,000 per hectare or part thereof. Based on the X2 multiplier, this would mean most (if not all) applications would be $2000 per hectare or part thereof. Using the example of a recent enquiry regarding an application to change the use of 8 hectares of rural zoned land into industry, the fee as per the proposed amendment would be $16,000. The fee for the same application using the existing fee schedule would be in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

P30/09/08 Moved: Cr R.A. Gâté Seconded: Cr A.J. Perrett Recommend that the Schedule of Fees and Charges for the 2008/09 financial year be amended to include an application fee of $1,000 per hectare or part thereof (plus the fee multiplier where applicable) for applications for material change of use proposing use rights or entitlements consistent with those of another zone in the planning scheme.

Carried.
