       The resultant total number of parking spaces required based on a ‘First Principles’ approach
       equates to approximately 75 parking spaces. However, SLR suggests that it would be appropriate
       to apply a 20% factor of safety to this calculation given that the specific tenancy arrangements
       are not resolved at this time. Hence the calculated first principles rate inclusive of a 20% factor of
       safety is 90 spaces.


And furthermore;


       …it can be concluded that the provision of 99 parking spaces, as per the proposed development
       plan will be sufficient to accommodate peak parking demands in the context of future planning.
       Furthermore, it will encourage a transport mode shift away from the single-occupancy vehicle to
       more sustainable options such as public transport and active transport, as is the strategic intent
       for transport as per Council’s Noosa Plan 2020.


It can therefore be concluded that the provision of 99 car parking spaces is more than sufficient for the
intended use.


Council Item 3 – Service Vehicles

The development proposes an ambulance bay, and a refuse storage area. There is no other provision
for deliveries. Whether the development is occupied by office or medical uses, there will be demands
for deliveries by vehicles of at least SRV in size.


INFORMATION REQUIRED


Demonstrate how deliveries by vehicles other than vans will occur in a satisfactory manner or provide
an SRV loading bay.


Our Response

SLR have prepared an attached letter responding to this specific RFI item, refer Appendix C, with the
relevant commentary extracted below.


To inform NSC’s assessment of the application, the following clarifications are provided:

           ·    Refer to Attachment B Figure 2 which demonstrates an SRV swept path utilising Easement
                AC to circulate through the site facilitating deliveries.
