   Carparking

As illustrated within the Site Plans (Appendix A) prepared by Suncoast Building Design, a minor
reconfiguration to the internal layout is proposed to accommodate the Indoor Sport and
Recreation use. It is noted that several areas of the strength and conditioning studio do not
contribute to actual car parking generation and these include the office, storage and amenities
areas of 7m2 and 11m2 respectfully. The studio has a total Gross Floor Area of 168m2 as identified
within the Proposed Plans (Appendix A).

The prescribed carparking requirements have been calculated utilising the rates specified within the
Noosa Plan 2020 and is listed in Table 4. For consistency, the assessment of the proposal should
have regard to the carparking requirements of a Food and Drink Outlet under the Noosa Plan 2020.

        Recreation



As demonstrated within Table 4 above, the proposed Material Change of Use from a Food and Drink
Outlet to an Indoor Sport and Recreation use has the equivalent prescribed carparking
arrangements. There are approximately 256 car parking spaces located behind the cinema in
addition to the on street car parking available. Therefore, no additional carparking infrastructure is
required resulting from the proposed Material Change of Use.

Further, with no additional gross floor area proposed, the existing carparking arrangements are
sufficient and meet the carparking requirements specified within the Noosa Plan 2020.
