6.0 Conclusion
The proposal seeks approval to operate a fitness gym by slightly increasing the size of an existing
industrial building and formalizing the carparking area at 26 Project Ave, Noosaville. The
Entertainment and Dining Business Type 2 (Fitness) is an inconsistent use within the Noosaville
Locality’s Industry Zone, subject to impact assessment against The Noosa Plan.

Despite being an inconsistent use with the zone, the following grounds of approval justify the decision
despite the conflict with The Noosa Plan:

      1. Gyms (fitness centres) are generally floor area intensive and require tenancies within
         industrial units that are most readily found in the Industrial Zone;

      2. Some sport and recreational uses are accepted within the Industry zone given the potential
         impacts of sport and recreation uses; and

      3. The fitness centre is of a size and scale similar to other approved Entertainment & Dining
         Business’s Type 2 uses within the Noosaville Industrial area.

Conditions can be imposed to mitigate any impacts regarding class sizes and staggering of class
times. This will ensure enough parking is provided onsite for the likely number of users and peak
parking demand periods, consistent with the relevant Outcomes of The Noosa Plan.

The proposal does not raise any other significant planning concerns and is recommended for
approval, subject to conditions.
