1-8 Venture Dr - MCU App - Planning Report

Class Participant Numbers
As the proposed Indoor Sport and Recreation use is located within an existing industrial tenancy
and the provision of car parking can not be increased further than that which is already proposed;
it is recommended that class participant numbers are limited in order to ensure sufficient parking is
provided to meet the reasonable requirements of the land use.

It is proposed that Units 1 and 2 share the existing car parking spaces during operating hours from
5:00AM to 3:00PM. From 3:00PM onwards, Unit 2 (First Batch Coffee) is not operating/open to public
and as such additional car parks are available to be utilised by Unit 1 (KX Pilates).

It is considered reasonable to apply the car parking demand rate of 0.8 spaces per client supported
by Council in numerous Delegated Reports for Indoor Sport and Recreation uses, including
MCU21/0106 – FitStop Noosa. This rate is based on circumstances where most customers drive their
own cars, but there is a small amount who will ride share, carpool, or utilise active and public
transport modes.

Applying the above ratio: with 10 spaces allocated to Unit 1 (refer to Table 6 above) and a maximum
of 12 participants, at a car parking rate of 0.8; this equates to 9.6 spaces which are to be provided.
Further, with 14 spaces available from 3:00PM, at a car parking rate of 0.8; there is sufficient car
parking for a maximum of 17 participants on the site.

By reducing the class participant numbers until 3:00PM to 12 ensures that sufficient car parking is
available on site whilst both tenancies are open.

Refer to Section 7.5 for Conditions which could be included in Council’s Decision Notice of Approval
to enable sufficient car parking to be provided for both tenancies.
