18 - 18 Hastings St Noosa Heads - Planning Report · MCU19/0061

4. Development Intent
       Taikong Australia Pty Ltd is seeking to establish a Type 2 Recreation, amusement & fitness use at 18/18
       Hastings Street, Noosa Heads QLD 4567. The application consists of a Material Change of Use (Impact
       Assessable) to facilitate the establishment of an amusement venue on the subject site:

       The proposed development site has been carefully selected to respond to the intent of the Noosa Heads
       Locality and the Visitor Mixed Use Zone. The operation and characteristics of the proposed development
       is a good fit for the active entertainment and visitor activities sought in the Hastings Street area.

       The proposed development is wholly contained within the existing shopping complex at Bay Village on
       Hastings. Aside from internal fit-out, very little physical change of the existing retail tenancy will be
       required to accommodate the use (Refer Figure 1: Indicative Interior View).

       Fun & Games are here to provide Family Entertainment in Noosa for local families and visitors. Our first
       step is to set up an amusement venue with virtual reality and arcade games which would keep families
       in Noosa for family nights instead of them having to travel to Mooloolaba or surrounding suburbs

       The venue will become a games centre, an activity space targeting the 6 – 14 year old’s to actively
       engage in interactive games and virtual reality, interactive games.

       Light, bright and airy space – the opposite of old fashioned arcade centres. Machines will be adjusted
       to low level or no sound as the premises will have own sound system. Fun and inclusive of ages 6 - 14 in
       terms to offer.
