Dear Denis and Tara,

Re:       Request for Council’s land owners’ consent to lodge a development application for a Development
          Permit for Operational Works to undertake upgrades to a fire access track
          Girrween Nature Refuge (Lot 1 on SP 239726)

We write on behalf of our client, Ozcare A.C.N. 072 422 925 (‘Ozcare’), who is the owner and operator of the
Ozcare Noosa Heads Aged Care Facility located at 100 Cooyar Street, Noosa Heads, legally described as Lot 9 on
RP225312.

On the 20th of July 2023 Noosa Shire Council (‘Council’) issued approval for a Minor Change (Council ref
132001.210127.3), approving alterations to the Residential Care Facility. On the 21st of July 2023 Council issued an
Infrastructure Agreement (IA) regarding undertaking upgrade works to the fire access track adjoining the site to
the north on the Girrween Nature Refuge (Lot 1 on SP 239726).

The IA requires:

          “obtain the necessary owners’ consent and subsequent approvals (e.g. Operational Works) prior to
          access and undertaking works on Council land.”

Council’s consent as the land owner of the Girrween Nature Refuge (Lot 1 on SP 239726) is requested to allow for
the subsequent lodgement of a development application seeking approval for Operational Works for earthworks,
vegetation clearing and landscaping. This request is supported by the following documentation:

      •   Attachment 1 – Pre-lodgement Advice

      •   Development Approval 132001.210127.3

      •   Attachment 2 - Infrastructure Agreement

      •   Attachment 3 – Operational Works Plans

      •   Attachment 4 - Pages from Tree Managaement Plan

      •   Attachment 5 - Fauna Management Plan

      •   Attachment 6 - Nesting Boxes For Wildlife

      •   Attachment 7 - Construction Management Plan

      •   Attachment 8 - WHS Management Plan

We request Council’s written consent to facilitate the lodgement of a subsequent development application.

If any further information is required to obtain Council’s consent, or as part of a subsequent development
application for Operational Works, please contact me.
