Sometimes, even changes to a building, that in the scheme of things appear small, will need to be approved by your local council before you can proceed.
RG Strategic lodged a town planning application for the Minor Change for the addition of a cabana structure in the existing pool area for Unit 1 at Artis Villas, Noosa Drive.
With the approval also came new stipulations from Council, including the usual stipulation that the development must be undertaken and operated in a manner that causes no detrimental effect upon the amenity of the neighbourhood by reason of the creation of excessive noise, lighting nuisance or other emissions.
In addition:
- The rooftop terrace cabana roof structure must remain unenclosed; and
- The rooftop terrace cabana roof structure must not exceed a maximum of 2.5 m in height above the existing FFL of the rooftop terrace and not exceed 38 m² of the rooftop area.
The proposed design for the cabana at Artis Villas, features an open roof design, which Council, in their approval of the project, stipulated must remain
RG Strategic worked with the following specialists to deliver this project:

Russell and the team at RG Strategic were amazing throughout our whole Development Application with council. To be honest, I don't think we would have even made the move to our new premises with how daunting a Material Change of Use Application is. We are experts in human movement, not this stuff, so we are super grateful these guys made the process seamless and also speedy! Council told us a 3-5 month application process and these guys got it in right on the 3 month mark for us! Thanks for your patience and professionalism guys! We appreciate it more than words can say.
