     RE:       Essence of Peregian Beach - 215 David Low Way Peregian Beach
               MCU16/0153           and REC16/0041

    I write to you on behalf of the Peregian Beach Business Association. We wish to express our
    support for the project currentiy being advertised on 215 David Low Way Peregian Beach.


    The Association is of the firm belief that this project will deliver significant value and be a
    great asset to Peregian Beach, for both business traders and the overall community of
     Peregian Beach for the following             reasons:


           •   The land presently sits vacant and is of no benefit in its present form.

           •   The    land     is    surrounded       by      complimentary           uses        such    as   the     hotel/pub,

               retail/supermarket,        commercial         (digital IT hub) and community                 uses including      the

               kindergarten     and tennis centre.

           •   The scheme           proposed      allows     for    both   short     stay visitor        accommodation          and

               residential    housing which is diverse in product and will have a wide range of appeal.

           •   The   boutique        motel     and   conference        facility    will     provide      a different     form    of

               accommodation          and professional services not currently                   being provided in Peregian.

           •   The plans show that there has been additional car parks provided over and above the

               required number; there is excellent connectivity                    via pedestrian        access to the Rufous

               Lane development          and also to the supermarket              which will be of great benefit.

           •   The proximity        to the village centre means that occupants will walk to facilities rather

               than requiring        additional    public carparks, and thereby                  have a direct effect on the

               commercial viability of village businesses.
