To Whom It May Concern:

Please find below applicant response to Council’s information request dated 13 July 2021.

Issue

The Noosa Plan 2020 prescribes a requirement for 15 car park spaces for the proposed use. Only 27 shared
carparks are provided to 4 tenants on the site. The application material indicates that the proposed use will
utilise particular hours of operation to avoid most of the traffic associated with the other tenancies on the
property. A detailed Traffic Impact Assessment Report will need to be provided to Council detailing that there
will not be any parking impacts from the development.

PROPOSAL
The applicant seeks a development permit for a code assessable application for an indoor sport and
recreation use located at 3/11 Gibson Road, Noosaville. The subject site is located within the District
centre zone.

For reference and context, the class timetables and Business Operations have been reiterated below:

Business Operations
The proposed development is for an indoor sport and recreation use, as such, its business hours are
typical for a development of this nature.
Monday through to Friday will see the first classes begin operation at 5am, with the final morning class
concluding at 10am.
Afternoon classes will operate from 4.15pm and conclude at 7pm. Saturday mornings see Fitstop’s
classic “Social Saturday” classes, with 2 x session being held at 6am and 7am. The business will be
closed on Sundays. Refer table 4 below.
Predominantly, the classes will be held outside of standard retail hours (9am-5pm). These operational
hours are complimentary to the existing business uses on at 11 Gibson Road, where peak traffic flows
will predominately be between 9am-5pm, and over the weekend.
There is minimal conflict between Fitstop’s proposed operating hours and that of the adjoining
businesses. Some overlap does occur at 9am and 4pm Monday to Friday.
Refer tables 1,2,3,4 below.
