As shown in Table 4.1 the total Noosa Fair parking requirement for the Coles expansion is 437
spaces based on the Noosa Plan.


4.3         Council Parking Supply Requirement – Draft SCPS
SCRC have issued a draft Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme (SCPS) for comment. The draft SCPS
identifies parking rates which differ from the Noosa Plan. Whilst the draft SCPS has not been
officially adopted by Council, it does identify Council’s current philosophy for the future direction
of the Sunshine Coast Region. As such, it is anticipated that the parking rates identified in the
draft SCPS will be largely consistent with the future adopted planning scheme and can be used as
a guide. The parking requirements for the proposed land uses based on the draft SCPS are
identified in Table 4.2.
