1-8 Venture Dr - MCU App - Planning Report

1.   Summary

RG Strategic has prepared this development application on behalf of KX Pilates. The subject site is
located at Unit 1, 8 Venture Drive, Noosaville 4566, and is formally described as Lot 1 on BUP105301
as shown on Figure 2 Site Plan.

The purpose of this report is to seek approval for a Development Permit for a Material Change of
Use for an Indoor Sport and Recreation use.

The site is included in the Medium Impact Industry Zone within the Noosaville locality of the Noosa
Plan 2020. An application of this nature within the Medium Impact Industry Zone and Venture Drive
Enterprise Precinct triggers Code Assessment.

The proposed use will be located within the existing building located within the Venture Drive
Enterprise Precinct of the Noosaville Industrial Estate. The existing building is intended to remain
unchanged as part of this proposal with the exception of a minor internal reconfiguration. The
proposed pilates studio comprises:

     •   46m2 of reception area,

     •   96m2 of pilates reformer area including 14 x reformer beds, and

     •   64m2 of amenities, storage and office area.

The proposed development of this site constitutes ‘development’ as defined by Schedule 2 of the
Planning Act 2016. This report demonstrates that the proposed Material Change of Use of Premises
for an Indoor Sport and Recreation use (KX Pilates) is permitted.

This planning report provides greater detail of the nature of the proposal, describes the site
characteristics and surrounding land uses, and provides a statutory assessment against the intents
and code requirements of the Noosa Plan 2020. These matters are set out in;

     •   Proposed development intent;

     •   Description of the characteristics of site and surrounds;

     •   Proposed development details;

     •   An assessment of the proposal against the State planning interests;

     •   An assessment of the proposal against the Noosa Plan 2020; and

     •   A conclusion that summarises the grounds which support the proposed development.

This report should be read in conjunction with the accompanying covering letter, DA Form 1 and
Appendix A Proposed Site and Use Plans. This report comprehensively addresses the merits of the
development with regard to the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2020 and other relevant matters as
prescribed in the Planning Act 2016. The development is appropriate and is not anticipated to
impact upon the amenity of the locality. Council’s approval of the application is therefore sought,
subject to relevant and reasonable conditions.
