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

We engaged RG Strategic to help us with our liquor licence and food licence for our new venue Flo's Creperie in Mooloolaba. Having worked with Russell, Maree and Tracey during the launch of our Noosa venue, we already knew they were a highly professional and knowledgeable team. This time, however, they really went above and beyond, performing a few miracles along the way to ensure we opened up on time. We couldn't be more grateful for their arduous work and commitment. I highly recommend RG Strategic to anyone who needs assistance with planning matters, and I look forward to working with them again in future!

I have engaged the services of Russell and the team at RG strategic on previous town planning projects and again they were efficient, transparent, professional and friendly. Russell set out clear timelines, associated costs and what outcomes we could expect. He was accurate with everything that was stated from the start and we were able to achieve the outcome we were after. I would definitely recommend RG Strategic to anyone looking for expert town planning advice.

We engaged Russell and the team at RG Strategic to consult on, and submit our application for a Material Change of Use zoning on a retail project. From the outset, Russell's advice was solid and clearly based on extensive experience and knowledge. Throughout the process we were well informed and I feel the team really took the time to understand our business, our brand and our vision. The submission itself was extensive and thorough and excellently presented. While a challenging application, Russell persisted and worked tirelessly to find a solution that eventually saw our application approved. The RG Strategic team are simply the best in the business.
