Parking

Thirteen (13) carparking spaces are provided on the site, including 4 x B85 staff bays
within the garage and the existing forecourt area and a service vehicle parking bay. The
driveway and forecourt line marking will be improved to allow for onsite deliveries and
garbage pickup.

The table below provides a car parking analysis of the proposal and the planning scheme.

As demonstrated in the Table above, the number of car spaces provided meets the
requirement and fully complies with the provisions of the Driveways and Parking Code.

Acknowledging that 6 spaces are within the road reserve, Council historically has
considered the on-street parking as part of the development in cases where the
development has contributed to the additional spaces. In this case the development, as
discussed in section 2.3 of this report, by removing the service station infrastructure
resulted in a net gain of 6 spaces in the road reserve.


3.     Demonstrate how the proposed development achieves Performance
       Outcome PO17 of the Cooroy Local Plan.

4.     Provide a fully dimensioned plan of the carparking areas. The spaces and
       aisle/access widths must be in accordance with AS/NZS2890.1:2004 for the
       relevant user class.

5.     Provide swept path plans for spaces 1-6 that demonstrate the paths required
       to access the site in a forward gear, access the space and exit the site in a
       forward gear.

6.     Provide a swept path plan for the service vehicle space and demonstrate how
       the vehicle will access the site in a forward gear, access the space and exit
       the site in a forward gear. Please note that waste collection must be in
       accordance with The Noosa Plan (Waste Management code and PSP9 Waste
       Management).

The proposal involves the reuse of a building which has been constructed along the
Wimmers Lane boundary. The application does not propose any major changes to the
existing building structure. PO17 is applicable to new developments requiring the
substantial knock down and rebuild of buildings, where there is an opportunity for Council
to enter into an infrastructure agreement to obtain a dedication for road widening. PO17
is not applicable in this circumstance.
