NC Attunga Submission P2 001.jpg · MCU18/0015

b-

of a house lot within the creek zone meets that important criterion of the Plan. | therefore
argue with considerable vehemence that Council reject the siting of Lot 3 in this location
and ensure that if the developer insists on a separate lot for a detached house in this site,
he be made to locate it on the South of the creek well back from the waterway within the
area of the multiple housing units where there is plenty of land for it. It would have its
access off the rest of the development from Attunga Heights. This would not involve the
destruction of significant trees along the creek as the current plan ensures.

Lot 3 Traffic Issues

The developer relies on the granting of an easement by the previous owners of our
development for this access point off Morwood drive within our development. This was as
suspicious a deed of grant as | have ever seen as it flies in the face of the intentions for
traffic control within the ‘Viridian’ development as it introduces residential traffic for all
hours within a road dedicated to pedestrian use and buggy use for the guests of the resort.
It brings road traffic into the very area where guests and visitors are encouraged to walk
during the day and absorb the beauty of the environment, this would bring cars, delivery
vehicles and God know what else into a pedestrian zone at all hours, clearly this is not the
intent of the DA conditions of approval for our development.

Of even greater concern is the status of the access easement granted for this lot prevents
vehicles blocking the road at all which will prohibit construction traffic comprehensively so
construction would have to be carried out from Attunga Heights all the way down through
the creek area. This cannot be contemplated in any form as it would destroy the area so
sensitive as set out. | attach a copy of the easement agreement which sets this out.

The current situation in regard to traffic in the Hastings Street precinct is serious enough
now and the Viewland Drive scenario is one | am sure is concerning Council and to add
further to this when all vehicular access could be directed onto Attunga Heights would
minimise the current situation.

. Conclusion

| make no objection to the development except for the proposal to grant access off
Morwood Drive for Lot 3 and the siting of that lot within the area of the creek reserve. | urge
Council to relocate that lot well South of the waterway zone with access off Attunga
Heights. This would be a major win for our environment and it would be well and truly in
keeping Council’s desires as set out so well in the Noosa Plan.
