132005.638.04 - Other Change To An Existing Approval For Material Change Of Use - Expansion Of Special Purpose (Waste Disposal And Recycling Facility) & Ongoing Clearing Purposes At 561 Eumundi Noosa Road Doonan · Attachment 2 - 132005.638.04 - Planning Officers Report

PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING REPORT                               9 DECEMBER 2025


The purpose and overall outcomes of the Driveways and Parking Code were also considered in
the assessment of this application and require parking and manoeuvring areas to be designed to
protect the safety of pedestrians, be functional and meet reasonable requirement of the particular
land use.
The Waste Transfer Station and Reviva Shop and internal layout and operation of the Waste and
Recycling Facility, including the existing Cleanaway Compound, have been deliberately designed
to provide separation and limit pedestrian connectivity for patrons.
The design of development deliberately seeks to discourage pedestrian movements within the site
between the various components for operational reasons. There is a clear intent to provide
separation of heavy vehicle movements from both the Cleanaway servicing trucks and also
commercial vehicle operators and other vehicles within the site and also prevent any conflicts with
pedestrians, in particular patrons attending the site.
