        These days the majority of service stations in the Noosa area and elsewhere have some form of
        convenience store and are selling food and drinks. These ancillary services are now what you would
        expect to be available and seem to be an essential component of the economic viability of a Service
        Station. Considering the sma Ii percentage of GFA (9% of total GFA) proposed for the convenience shop
        and cafe uses, it is reasonable to expect that these complimentary ancillary uses are permitted as part
        of the overall mix of uses that will provide a much needed and easily accessible service.

        To conclude, the above statements support the application to develop all proposed uses on the subject
        site at 139 Eumundi Noosa Road, and in particular the retail convenience shop and tradies cafe. I
        believe the proposed two minor inconsistent ancillary uses as part of a larger mix of consistent uses,
        will not have any negative impacts on surrounding businesses and centres and will only add value and
        provide much needed options to the range of services that currently exist in this proximity.




        Sincerely




        Kari Martin
