GENERAL COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA 15 MARCH 2021
than assumed in the TTM reports), in which case the traffic impacts on the broader
network would be significant.
The consultant has identified inconsistencies between the architectural plans and plans
within the traffic report noting a variation in road widths. The architectural plans demonstrate
3.5 – 4.0 metre widths in 2 locations on the site whereas the traffic report discusses two-way
aisles. These narrow road widths are not supported with all internal roads requiring a
minimum width of 6.0 metres with 2.0 metre verges on each side. Whilst these requirements
could be conditioned it is noted that this will impact on the layout and likely reduce the
applicant’s proposed yield.
In terms of car parking it is noted that a double garage is provided to each residence and an
additional 32 visitor spaces are provided with half of these located at the club house. This
represents a shortfall of 30 visitor spaces. Whilst the applicant seeks to rely on car parking
within the double garages to satisfy the visitor car parking requirement this is considered
unreasonable as it is impractical to expect that residents of the dwelling will make their
garage spaces available to visitors. The traffic report submitted with the application discusses
visitor parking being permitted on the internal 6.0m wide roadway however it is noted that in
the “Use of the Park – visitors” section of the “Special terms” document (part of the Site
Agreement) specifies that visitors are not permitted to park anywhere other than in the
designated visitor carparks.
Furthermore, the location of the visitor car parking is unsuitable as it is not dispersed
throughout the development to enable easy access for visitors visiting residents in their
homes.
Sufficient car parking has not been provided for the golf club house as 94 car spaces are
proposed in lieu of the 103 spaces required to service the 308 patrons who can be
accommodated in the restaurant, café, function room, golfers lounge and terrace areas. The
shortfall in car parking is further exacerbated as the golf club house car park will also be used
by patrons of the golf course.
The application was also referred internally to the Infrastructure Planning Design and
Delivery team seeking advice regarding external pathway connections and the specific
Noosa Council bus stop infrastructure types. In regard to external footpath connections the
design office has indicated that it would be desirable for a footpath connection extending
from the proposed bus stop on the western side of Myall Street along the western side of
Myall Street and connecting to the existing pathway network on the northern side of Ferrells
Road. The alignment of the footpath would need to consider significant vegetation in Myall
Street and 2 pram crossings in Ferrells Road. In regard to bus stop infrastructure types the
design office have advised that due to the routes that an R1 type shelter would be required
on both sides together with the associated infrastructure as required by Translink. Relevant
conditions could be included to address these requirements.
Acoustic:
An acoustic report has been provided to establish traffic impacts to the development and to
determine acoustic criteria for onsite activities. The report includes recommendations for
acoustic barriers with a maximum height of 2.4 metres and building treatments to address
traffic noise from Myall Street. The report concludes that if the golf clubhouse is proposed as
a licensed premises, a detailed amplified music assessment will need to be conducted to
determine the maximum allowable noise levels for any amplified entertainment, in
accordance with Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation (OLGR) requirements. Given the
applicant indicates the golf club house will be available for functions, it is reasonable to
assume that the clubhouse will be licensed and therefore it is appropriate that a detailed
assessment be undertaken as part of this application to determine the appropriate hours of
operation and any limits on outdoor dining areas.
