Dear Sir/Madam,



RE:        APPLICATION MCU16/0153 AND REC16/0041

           21S DAVID LOW WAY PEREGIANBEACHQLD 4573 (LOT 77 ON SP231615)



I make the following submission supporting the proposed Essenceof Peregian Beach development
application currently being advertised. The reasons for my support of this development are as
follows:

      •    I have considered the plans of the development proposed and understand there is a mix of
           accommodation proposed which will have 20 short term motel rooms and 12 dual use
           apartments, a small conference centre plus 26 beach houses.


      •    I am supportive of a mix of both short stay and permanent living as I believe these are both
           very much needed in Peregian Beach and the wider Noosa region, which will be enjoyed by
           both residents and visitors.


      •    The design is well considered to embrace the village atmosphere and is in keeping with a
           true Peregian Beach and coastal community feel, being set back off David Low Way to the
           West, on an infill development site, which is currently vacant.


      •    This project also provides an opportunity for people to move closer to amenities such as the
           Village shops and restaurants, the supermarket & pharmacy, patrolled beach and direct
           access to public transport. There are very limited opportunities to achieve this type of
           development, given the current shortage of appropriate locations in both Peregian Beach
           proper and the Noosa region.


    •      The project will have a positive effect on the economy which creates prosperity for everyone
           working and living in Peregian Beach.


    •      The site is complimentary   to the Noosa Shire Council's recent works in Rufous Lane and
           provides an excellent connection to both Rufous Lane and the Digital IT Hub which is owned
           and operated by Noosa Shire Council. The people working in this precinct will need to live
           and work close to their employment, which is in keeping with the work/life balance of the
           Peregian Beach community.
