         3.3.3    Design

         The    layout and provision         of on-site     car   parking is generally consistent with   the   requirements of
         Australian Standard AS2890.1 :2004 Parking Facilities Part 1: Off-Street Car Parking in terms of bay

         dimensions, aisle widths, vehicle circulation and manoeuvring. This is typified by:

                  2.7m x 5.4m vehicle parking spaces

                  6.2m wide parking aisles

         -        6.5m wide circulation aisles




         3.3.4    People With Disabilities

         A total of two People with Disability (PWD)spaces are proposed, which accords with the standards set

         out in AS2890.6, representing one space for every 50 car parking spaces. The PWD car parking bays are


         appropriately sized and located in close proximity to the shopping centre access in accordance with
         AS2890.6, as indicated on Figure 3.1. This is considered to adequately cater for the anticipated parking

         demands of the proposed development and is in accordance with Council’s reqt rements.




         3.3.5    Motorcyde Parking

         The Noosa Plan requires the provision of motorcycle parking at a rate of one space per 10 car parking

         spaces. The application of this rate would require a total of 10 motorcycle spaces for the development.


         However, vehicle registration data obtained from DTMR for the area surrounding the site (defined as

         postcode 4573), including all of Coolum Beach, Marcus Beach, Mount Coolum, Peregian Beach, Point
         Arb\’right and Yaroomba can be used to provide an independent check on this rate. After removing all
         vehicle types which would not travel to a shopping centre (such as heavy goods vehicles and off-road

         vehicles), the data indicates that motorcycles comprise approximately 5% of all registered vehicles in the

         vicinity of the site. On this basis it is proposed to provide five motorcycle spaces (which represents 5% of
         all on-site parking spaces) for the proposed development.


         This provision is considered reasonable for this type of use given that motorcycles are unlikely to be a

         popular mode of transport for supermarket based trips.



         3.3.6    Council Car Park


         The adjacent Council car park would continue to operate as it does currently, with no changes to the

         layout or operation proposed as part of this development application.
