3. Details of Submission
Pursuant to the Sustainable Planning Act 2009,we make the following submission:
Weobject to the commercial use of the Peregian Bowls Club area zoned Open Space/Recreation as determined in
both The Noosa Plan 2006 and the draft Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme (2012).
This development will adversely affect the consistent land and community use of the current tennis courts,
Community House, Kindergarten, Veggie Village and Di Hurst Oval and the amenity of surrounding residents.
The Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Strategy 2011 identifies that "Peregian Beach locality area is generally
under-provided for with recreational parks" (2011:35)and we object to loss of this recreational land for the current
and future residents of Peregian Beach and wider catchment to commercial development.
We further object for the following reasons:
This Application does not meet the Noosa Plan 2006 requirements for Open Space Recreation. The Noosa Plan
followed community consultation.
. Peregian Beach is a village and deliberately does not have a large-scale supermarket, schools, churches or high
rise or hotel accommodation.
. We do not need another supermarket. Peregian Beach residents have sufficient access to larger stores with
Coles at Peregian Springs, Coles and Woolworths at Coolum Beach and Coles and IGA at Noosa Junction and
another supermarket approved for the Essence development on the former caravan park. The smaller local
stores meet day-to-day needs.
. If the Bowls Club site is lost to a supermarket, there is no alternative public or private land available to replace
it for recreation.
. Peregian Beach has a compact village centre. This Application, if approved, would create two centres with the
second economically and socially detrimental to the existing village.
. Pedestrian connection is neither short nor readily accessible -
over 350 m via the pathway next to the
Peregian Beach Hotel and 550 m via Woodland Drive and David Low Way.

r . This Application simply proposes to transfer retail spending from the PB Village and other supermarkets in the
area to the proposed new supermarket. This will be to the detriment of existing Peregian Beach Village
businesses.
. There is no suggestion of creating additional retail spending in Peregian Beach.
. There is no economic benefit in simply moving retail spending from one part of the area to another.
. There will be a significant impact on residents of Cormorant, Tern, Gannet Streets and Woodland Drive and the
users of Rufous Street and Veggie Village, the tennis courts, Di Hurst Oval, the Kindergarten, the Co-op and the
PB Community House if this application is approved. General noise, increased traffic movements and resident
access difficulties, deliveries out of hours, increased lighting (and security lighting) and potential nuisance
impact will all negatively affect the amenity of local residents and users of these facilities.
. The development is adjacent to the Peregian Beach Community House where mindful activities such as
meditation, yoga, Pilates, first aid classes, etc. take place.
. Traffic conflict at the Rufous Street entrance to the site will be inevitable between service and delivery vehicles,
private customer vehicles and pedestrians.
. The increased volumes of traffic on Rufous Street, Woodland Drive, David Low Way and other surrounding
streets will increase risk to pedestrians and children including at the kindergarten and students accessing
school buses at David Low Way bus stops.
. The Woodland Drive and David Low Way intersection will suffer greatly increased traffic congestion and safety
issues will be a major problem.
