               2.     SITE DETAILS
               2.1. Background
               Noosa Springs is master planned as a high-quality residential and resort destination that
               comprises:
               •    299 residential dwellings
               •    42 apartments of The Fairways
               •    18-hole championship golf course
               •    Clubhouse complex including restaurant, bars, function rooms, pro shop/retail outlet, day spa,
                    fitness centre with heated lap pool
               •    Synthetic grass tennis courts
               Parkridge Noosa is located adjacent to Noosa Springs with the majority of the dwelling units able
               to be used as either permanent residential living or short-stay accommodation, dwelling units in
               the south-eastern corner of the development may only be used for short term accommodation. The
               apartments have been strata-titled and separately owned and appear to be mostly occupied on a
               permanent basis. There has long been strategic intent for visitor accommodation to be provided at
               Noosa Springs. With the development of Parkridge being occupied predominately on a permanent
               basis, this site was identified as suitable for visitor accommodation.
               2.2. Site Description
               The site address is Links Drive, Noosa Heads. The land has a broad frontage to Resort Drive,
               Noosa Heads and the development site is part of Lot 4 on SP 178340 comprising 3.804 hectare.
               The Noosa Plan zoning map designates part of the land within the Recreation and Open Space
               zone (14,608m2) and the balance in the Tourist Accommodation zone (23,447m2).
               The proposed hotel site is located on the western slopes of a high sand dune that extends along
               the eastern side of the Noosa Springs property. The slope of the ridgeline varies across the site.
