    Secondary Dwelling – Scenic Rim Regional Council

    This development application proposed a secondary dwelling on an existing residential allotment in the Village Residential Precinct of the Tamborine Mountain Zone, under the Beaudesert Shire Planning Scheme and within the jurisdiction of Scenic Rim Regional Council.  With changes to the planning scheme coming into effect at the end of 2013 the proposal was defined as dual occupancy instead of secondary dwelling. A development permit was consequently sought for Material Change of Use - Dual Occupancy, whereby the smaller existing dwelling was retained and a larger primary residence (the secondary dwelling) was proposed by the owners.
