                 P.O. Box 267 Peregian Beach ,Qld. 4573

                 I make the following submission:

                 I object to the development on the following grounds:



                 Access to the proposed development using a single lane road that is the only entrance and exit of an
                 existing shopping complex(IGA and other shops) as well as the entrance and exit for a hardware
                 retailer. Not only do both of these complexes have customer traffic using this same access road, they
                 also have deliveries on a daily basis using trucks and larger reticulated vehicles. This entrance and
                 exit feeding the retail outlets is already overburdened and have created a bottleneck on David Low
                 Way during peak times. The addition of traffic from an apartment/housing complex to this already
                 congested and bottlenecked intersection would only add to the problem. Traffic lights at this
                 intersection would only exacerbate the problem further. I also object to the proposal of opening up
                 the Rufus St. Precinct to through traffic would have a very negative impact to the amenity of the
                 new precinct that is under construction as well as shift the congestion to the Woodland Drive/David
                 Low Way intersection.

                 There is also an issue with noise in regard to the Peregian Beach Hotel having a significant boundary
                 with the proposed development. Pubs and Hotels by nature are noisy places and are not suited to
                 be next to residential areas, especially at such close proximity.



                 Another point that should be mentioned is the sheer number of residences that are being squeezed
                 into the plan. I myself would not want to live there , and likewise would definitely not holiday in a
                 claustrophobic complex with the noise and traffic congestion on offer.

                 I also have concerns for the impact the complex would have on the adjacent Noosa National Park in
                 regard to storm water runoff from streets and gardens. The overuse of herbicides and fertilizers on
                 complexes of this nature are common, and would lead to these substances being washed down into
                 the national park wetlands .



                 I also have concerns in regard to the elevation. The elevation of the units on the western side of the
                 complex are almost equal to the elevation of the adjacent wetlands. I have seen Emu Swamp fill like
                 a lake during significant rain events. With sea levels expected to rise and flooding events predicted
                 to increase with climate change,it is probably not wise to build residences that have virtually no
                 buffer against inundation .



                 On these grounds , I am asking Council to reject the proposed changes to land use. And reject this
                 development application.



                 Thank You



                 Bruce Walker
