Judi Lalor           Australia   2015-07-15   I support local businesses, suppliers and families in Noosa Junction. I believe
                                              the impact of more retail development at Noosa Civic to be in conflict with the
                                              Noosa Plan. We already have retail and a proposed Coles development site in
                                              Noosa Junction. Why not diversify with commercial and creative opportunities
                                              at the Civic?

Jasmin tulk          Australia   2015-07-16   I live in Noosa Junction and want to see local business in this area thrive -
                                              providing local jobs and a vibrant community

Tara lees            Australia   2015-07-16   Have lived in noosa for 30 years. My family owns a business in noosa junction
                                              and I work in another local family owned business in the junction. We are
                                              already feeling the effects of services moving out to the civic. It takes local
                                              business away from what we called as kids the junga. I believe loosing target
                                              country will effect our tourist $$$ as this store is very handy and $ friendly. Not
                                              everyone that visits noosa has money and it is a great spot to get simple things
                                              like a beach towel or blanket. I say no no no

Jodi holzapfel       Australia   2015-07-16   i don't think the size of the town warrants an up sized shopping mall. I support
                                              local.

elise waldron        Australia   2015-07-16   We just don't need it. Keep the whip birds instead

Stephanie Stainlay   Australia   2015-07-17   Im singing this petition because I grew up in Noosa Junction and I want local
                                              business's to thrive.

James Quinn          Australia   2015-07-19   If /target leaves it takes jobs and to much money out of the area

Jo McAlinden         Australia   2015-07-21   lets keep small businesses alive in Noosa to maintain its unique culture &
                                              diversity.

Pauline Kouw         Australia   2015-07-21   I'm signing because I am against this proposal. After seeing the loss of
                                              business for local businesses after the opening of the Civic, I think we should
                                              learn our lesson from this. Noosa doesn't need this and the local businesses
                                              don't need this. Instead of destroying the small businesses in Noosa we should
                                              come up with a plan to help small businesses.

Sue Scarlett         Australia   2015-07-22   Because I have been a Noosa Junction business owner for 20 years. The first
                                              part of Noosa Civic did damage to retailers in the Junction. Seriously we do not
                                              need more shops, This would certainly impact the local economy in a bad way.

Corine Jacqueline    Australia   2015-07-23   I'm signing this because I strongly believe it would be a lot more effective to
Lefevre                                       give the main street Sunshine beach Road a facelift and support existing
                                              businesses rather than turn the Noosa Junction into a failure with more retail
                                              floor space. Developers & Councillors, just take a look at the business turnover
                                              around the Civic… what a joke! There seems to be already too much empty
                                              space! The Civic is really badly planned with that crazy and badly designed
                                              carpark. Enlarging does not mean improving!

Shirley Martin       Australia   2015-07-24   We are signing as we live at Noosa Heads and shop locally at the Junction.
                                              The junction offers us the variety of shops that we need. The proposed
                                              expansion of Noosa Civic will take retailers from the Junction and deprive us
                                              the variety of retail outlets we now enjoy at the Junction. The street scape will
                                              be all the worse with empty/vacant premises. The Noosa Civic will also be
                                              huge and take away from the relaxed holiday atmosphere that is appealing to
                                              us. If we wanted this type of shopping centre at our door step we would still be
                                              living in a city.

Mary Horan           Australia   2015-07-24   I do not believe this is right for noosa
