               EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
               This application seeks a development approval for Material change of use for a three-storey mixed
               use building comprising a Food and Drink outlet and Short term accommodation at 203 & 207
               Gympie Terrace, Noosaville. The entire site is contained within the Tourist Accommodation zone
               with both uses defined as consistent uses (code assessable development).
               The site has three street frontages, Thomas Street (western frontage), Gympie Terrace (northern
               frontage) and Albert Street (eastern frontage) and is 3,750m² in area.
               Food and drink outlets are proposed at ground level comprising a total of 699 square metres gross
               floor area (GFA) fronting Thomas Street and Gympie Terrace and two floors of Short-term
               accommodation units (12 units plus 4 dual key units, totalling 16 units) above ground level.
               The building includes a basement providing 57 carparking spaces for patrons and guests of the
               development. Vehicle entry to the site will be from Albert Street with exit via either Thomas or Albert
               Streets.
               The site is located within the Noosaville Local plan area. The Noosaville local plan code includes
               planning outcomes for the site whilst the Noosaville Framework and Character Plan designates
               the corner of Thomas and Gympie Terrace as a ‘key corner’. Of note is the requirement for Thomas
               Street and Gympie Terrace to be developed as ‘primary active street’ frontages.
               The proposed development seeks performance solutions to the Noosa Plan 2020 relating to
               maximum building height (in metres), two rooftop terraces, building setbacks, site cover and onsite
               carparking.
               Upon assessment, there is sufficient merit to recommend the application for approval which will
               still achieve the overall outcomes sought under the Tourist Accommodation zone and Noosaville
               local plan codes.
               Outstanding matters regarding onsite refuse management was not able to be fully resolved to the
               satisfaction of Council’s engineering officers and Waste Section. To appropriately resolve these
               matters, it is recommended that relevant conditions be applied to ensure on site servicing occurs
               on this site.
