        the proposal will not have an adverse impact on the electrical supply
        network.

4.3.4.3 Community Uses Code
Given the nature of the proposed community use and its location within an existing
building, many elements of the Code are not applicable to the application. In
addition, other requirements of the Code have been discussed as part of the
assessment against the Noosa Heads Locality and Business uses codes above and
therefore are not repeated here. The key conclusions to note from the assessment
of the proposal against the remainder of the Code are summarised below:

        the proposed use will be conveniently located for staff and visitors;

        the community use is consistent with the prevailing character of the local
        area and the purpose of the Business Centre Zone;

        the proposal will not have an adverse impact on the amenity of, or the
        infrastructure serving, the local area;

        the entrance to the community use will be clearly visible from the street;
        and

        the site is accessible by a variety of different transport modes including
        public transport, cycling and walking.

4.3.4.4 Engineering Works Codes
The Engineering Works Codes have been reviewed and, given that the application
seeks to reuse part of an existing building, the only issue that warrants discussion is
car parking. As mentioned earlier, Council Officers have advised that when the
building was originally built, a credit of 1 car parking space per 20m2 of floor area
would have been applied, in lieu of off-site provision. Given this background, it is
relevant to note that the car parking requirement for both of the proposed uses is
also 1 space per 20m2 and as such, the parking requirement generated by the
application is consistent with the credit applicable to the application area. It is
also relevant to note that there is a loading bay directly in front of the application
site on Sunshine Beach Road.
