6.0 The Proposal
The applicant is seeking approval from Council to renovate the existing building on site and enable a new
functional and elegant building on the site. The redevelopment will be predominately contained within the
lease area with eaves along the western boundary extending over into the park.

The proposal can be detailed as follows:

Lower Floor ‘Actives Area”

The existing lower floor area is to be predominantly retained with some minor extensions to the north
which will incorporate the service and plant areas. These service area directly adjoin the emergency
vehicle access and public park and present an unsightly and adhoc view to the adjoining public areas.
The proposed works have been designed to provide a cohesive and attractive presentation to the park
area and include:

     •    New First Aid room.
     •    New bin store.
     •    New plant equipment.
     •    New Actives area equipment storage.

Ground Floor

The existing ground floor level which currently contains the reception, kitchen, patron toilets, bar, pokies
and dining area is to be totally demolished with the existing slab retained. The existing outdoor dining
area to the beach is however to be retained with a new floor and cover proposed.

The ground floor layout addresses existing shortcomings of the building such as poor internal layout,
congested areas, lack of facilities by providing a more functional layout. The new layout includes:

     •    Defined entrance area including upgraded footpath and delineation between pedestrians and
          vehicles.
     •    Upgraded landscaping to front of club.
     •    Structural timber batten screen to dining area.
     •    Reception and administration area.
     •    Male and female toilets.
     •    Kitchen and new coldrooms.
     •    Poker machine area.
     •    Bar and cold rooms.
     •    DOSA.
     •    Discrete internal dining areas.
     •    Kids room.
     •    Disabled access.
     •    New deck over existing outdoor dining area.
     •    Replacement of umbrellas with removable framed awning.
     •    Access to upper level.

Upper Floor

The upper floor level currently contains several office and administration rooms, plant room and a
training/meeting room. The level is to be demolished and replaced with a new level comprising new
toilets, offices and a dual purpose lifesaving/function area.

Proposal plans are included in Annexure A.
