PM Submission Object 2 of 2- Richard Kirkpatrick MCU16/0153 & REC16/0041

              It is considered the current proposal does not meet the Planning Scheme’s intent for the site as there is
              a lack of and a limited range of visitor accommodation proposed…….



     The DA does not reflect this advice.



     The other thing to mention here is the Planning and Environment Court sanctioned approval of 12 February
     2010 of the now lapsed DA referred to above. At item 3 it stated:

              The units shall operate in accordance with the defined use of ‘Visitor accommodation – Type 4
              Conventional’ in the Noosa Plan, which provides for short term visitor accommodation. The units shall
              not be used for the purpose of permanent residential accommodation, with the exception of two
              manager/caretaker’s units. The Community Management Statement for any or all Bodies Corporate
              having control of the development, or any part thereof, shall incorporate this requirement.”



     The DA is totally in conflict with this approval as can be seen below:



     The proposal:

     Multiple Housing of 3 types – 88 Beds (or Persons)

     They are all proposed for PERMANENT RESIDENTS.

              The Kamala & Marram Houses (in the centre of the ring road) There are 9 of these with 3 bedrooms.
              (27 persons). Carparking is 9x2. Estimated price $825K



              The Wallum Units (along Rufous Lane). There are 7 of these with 3 bedrooms. (21 persons).
              Carparking is 5x3 and 2x2. Estimated price $725-800K



              Reed Beach Houses (behind the Hotel) – There are 10 of these with 4 bedrooms upstairs and living
              down. (40 persons). Carparking is 10x3. These units will be approximately 6m below the Hotel level.
              Estimated price $850K.



     Essence Hotel/(Motel) & Conference Centre – 40 beds

              The developer proposes to develop and run the hotel with 20 visitor accommodation rooms and 12
              apartments (4 x 1 bedroom and 8 x 2 bedroom) which are described as “multiple and visitor”. (40
              persons). The 12 apartments are proposed for PERMANENT RESIDENTS.

              The Hotel will apparently employ 15 people (full-time and part-time) including conference facilitators.
              The Conference room is small and apparently will seat 40. 40 Car parks are proposed with all bar 3
              (Visitor parking?) under the Hotel and behind a security gate.
