Probable Solutions S76.1 and S76.2 of the Noosaville Locality Code – Specific Outcomes and Probable
Solutions for the Industry Zone state:
         S76.1 The service station is located in a Commercial zone, on a site fronting part of the major road
         network; or
         S76.2 The service station is co-located with, or adjoining, shopping facilities or established business
         development.
It is acknowledged that the proposed service station is located in an industry zone and not within close
proximity shopping facilities or business development which does not strictly adhere to S76.1 and S76.2.
Therefore the relevant Specific Outcome:
         O76 Service stations are located only where they are compatible with the existing and proposed
         amenity and development of a neighbourhood and where they are appropriate given the existing or
         likely future traffic movements in the area.
The proposed service station is located in the industry zone along the Eumundi Noosa Road frontage. It is
considered that the location is appropriate given the surrounding industrial land uses. The proposed service
station offers a similar standard of amenity that already exists in the industrial locality. However the proposal
is a modern design and provides adequate landscaping to contribute to the amenity and characteristics of
the neighbourhood.
The proposal is located along the Eumundi Noosa Road frontage can captures the traffic drive northeast into
Noosaville. Although there is an approved service station on the opposite side of Eumundi Noosa Road,
there are limited opportunities for motorist to re-fuel along Eumundi Noosa Road heading in-bound to
Noosaville. Figure 10 illustrates that there are limited service stations within the local area. The proposal
offers convenience and will reduce drive time for motorists who need to travel long distances to for petrol.
