the non-residential components of the proposed development would integrate with and support the
existing Noosa Junction business centre in a functional sense.

7. Dem onstrate the proposed ex pansion of business land in N oosa Junction w ill not
   com prom ise the centre hierarchy for the Noosa Shire area and the role and function of
   the N oosa Shire Business Centre.

Response:
The attached Retail Liquor & Hotel Assessment Report prepared by Macro Plan Dimasi demonstrates
how the proposed expansion of business land in Noosa Junction will not compromise the centre
hierarchy for the Noosa Shire area and the role and function of the Noosa Shire Business Centre.

8. Dem onstrate how the com m unity w ould not be disadvantaged by the loss of
   Com m unity Services land.

Response:
The land has been used for a Bowls Club for the past 43 years. It is well documented that the
existing bowls club is no longer financially viable. It was purchased by Coles Property Developments
in November 2011 as a result of fast dwindling levels of membership and financial resources. In
2013, the club has a very poor membership base with some 125 financial members.

Coles Group Property Developments have investigated and exhausted any possibility of retaining a
bowling green or constructing a new synthetic green on the current bowls club site. It is not financially
viable for the Noosa Bowls Club to service a green on this site even in a downsized format.

The existing bowling greens cannot be considered ‘green or community space’ in that they are not
open to the broader (non Bowls Club member) community and do not meet the classification of a
‘local civic recreational park’ as outlined in Council’s Sunshine Coast Open Space Strategy.

Page 3

While the cessation of the bowls club use will affect the current 125 members, this can hardly be
considered a ‘community’ impact, given the small and specific part of the community the current
members represent. The cessation of the bowls club use will occur regardless of the outcome of the
subject application.

It is therefore important to acknowledge that maintaining the status quo is not an option.

While the land may currently be included within the Community Services Zone, the land is neither
community land in ownership nor use. The Community Services Zoning does not guarantee the use
of the land for ‘community’ purposes. Under the current Noosa Plan, consistent uses for the
Community Services Zone include Multiple housing Type 3 Retirement & special needs. This means
that the land could be developed for a retirement village comprising self-contained dwelling units for
over 50’s as a secure gated environment, fully complying with the planning scheme. It is debatable
whether this would provide a community service.

While the proposed development may not be a use contemplated under the current Community
Services Zoning, the overall development and use will provide for increased community access and
social use of the land, consistent with the intent of the overall outcomes for the zone, which includes
the provision for infrastructure, indoor recreation, education, social and safety needs of the local
community…

Community benefits from the development include:

•   Delivering some of the key outcomes of the Noosa Junction Placemaking Strategy:
        o to create a ‘green plaza’ by extending Arcadia Street, through to the northern side of
            Sunshine Beach Road and south to Pinaroo Rotary Park, to link disparate elements, bring
            nature into the centre and provide an identifiable community space
        o   to improve the frontage and interface along Pinaroo Rotary Park
        o   a new link road between Noosa Drive and Arcadia Street, running alongside the northern
            boundary of Pinaroo Rotary Park, has been identified as a way of enticing and attracting
            people into the heart of Noosa Junction, whilst also activating the Pinaroo Park edge.

•   Activating the edge of Pinaroo Rotary Park enabling a safe environment for the establishment of a
    children’s playground within the park to be created (identified as Cockatoo Playground under the
    Noosa Junction Placemaking Strategy).

•   Providing improved pedestrian and cyclist networks.

•   Refurbishment of an existing social venue and opening the use to the wider community

•   Providing greater shopping choice, amenity and local convenience.

•   Stimulating additional employment opportunities in the local area.

Urban Design Unit

9. Dem onstrate how stages 1 and 2 can operate independently.

Response:
Amended proposal plans and landscape plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans
demonstrate that an appropriate streetscape outcome can be achieved with stage 1 development and
provide for improved front entry presentation and pedestrian connection. While stage 1 provides for
carparking and open space within the stage 2 areas, this is temporary usage only until such time as
stage 2 is developed. The temporary carparking provided in these areas is surplus to stage 1 needs

Page 4

and is not required for stage 1 to operate independently. The use of the stage 2 areas for temporary
carparking and green space is to provide for increased amenity benefits until such time as stage 2 is
developed.

10. P rovide am ended plans to dem onstrate how stage 1 contributes to an attractive street
    scape on the continuation of Arcadia Lane / P inaroo W ay.

Response:
Amended proposal plans and landscape plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans
provide for an additional entry to the tavern facing Lanyana Way/Pinaroo Way with improved
pedestrian connectivity and landscaping. These plans demonstrate that stage 1 will contribute to an
attractive streetscape on the continuation of Arcadia Lane/Pinaroo Way.

11. P rovide am ended plans dem onstrating an integration of buildings w ith the
    streetscape, this should include a reduction of the finished floor level of the speciality
    shops to proposed street level.

Response:
Amended plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans provide for a reduction of the
finished floor levels of the shops along Pinaroo Way to the same level as the street and footpath, to
ensure street activation and increased pedestrian network amenity is achieved.

12. P rovide am ended plans including the com m ercial building running along the street
    line to increase the activation of the P inaroo W ay streetscape and address the street
    edge by having a nil or reduced setback to the proposed public footpath w ith rem oval
    of the forecourt, reduced floor height to be at grade w ith the footpath edge, rem oval
    of the secondary high level footpath and retaining w all to the street edge.

Response:
Amended plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans provide for the commercial
building running along the street line to address the street edge. To further activate the Pinaroo Way
streetscape the ground level tenancies are now proposed as retail shops and are at the same level as
the street and footpath.

13. I n accordance w ith O78 Streetscape and Character, Business Centre Zone, provide
    revised plans detailing activation of street front at pedestrian level on all buildings
    proposed. This should define the street and create a hum an scale.

Response:
Amended plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans provide for activation of the
street front at pedestrian level for the length of Pinaroo Way extending from Arcadia Street to Pinaroo
Park. The buildings address the street edge, are at the same level as the street/pedestrian footpath,
provide for active uses with openings to the street, awnings over the footpath and sufficient footpath
width for street furniture and landscaping, which defines the street and creates a human scale.

14. Dem onstrate im proved pedestrian links from Arcadia Lane to the proposed tavern and
    liquor store and through the site w ith links included to Noosa Drive.

Response:
Amended proposal plans and landscape plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans
provide for improved pedestrian links from Arcadia Lane to the proposed tavern and liquor store,
through the site, providing connection to the arcade alongside the Seven Eleven store fronting Noosa
Drive, along the length of Pinaroo Way and fronting Pinaroo Park and with links to the Noosa Drive
roundabout.

    pedestrian frontage and incorporating additional landscaped or retained vegetation
    areas. Additional street tree shading should be provided to all streets proposed.

Response:
Amended plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans provide for improved shop
interface with the pedestrian frontage, through reduction of the finished floor levels of the shops to
the same level as the street and footpath, providing street awnings, varied footpath widths for street
furniture, footpath seating and landscape opportunities. Pinaroo Way provides for street planting and
shading.

Strategic Planning Unit

16. P rovide a reconfiguration proposal as part of stage 1 identifying public road reserves
    and developm ent lots A, D & E.

Response:
A reconfiguration proposal plan prepared by KHA Development Managers identifying public road
reserves and the development lots is attached.

17. Dem onstrate that the new public road reserves w ill be developed to a high
    streetscape standard at no cost to council.

Response:
Amended proposal plans and landscape plans prepared by Mode Design are attached. These plans
demonstrate that the new public road reserves can de developed to a high streetscape standard
allowing for shared pedestrian and cycle use, street furniture/art/landscaping opportunity, slow speed
vehicle environment and connectivity between Arcadia Street and Pinaroo Park. Streetscape
requirements can be conditioned and addressed in further detail as part of a subsequent operational
works application.

18. Dem onstrate how lot A can be developed individually including the provision of all
    access and carpark ing to support the proposed developm ent of the lot, w ithout the
    reliance of lots D and E.

Response:
Refer item 2 of correspondence from TTM Consulting included in Attachment 1. This provides an
overview of parking demands and parking supply of the proposed development and demonstrates that
Lot A can be developed without reliance for Lots D and E for carparking.

Place Making Unit

19. P rovide a tree survey and assessm ent of vegetation on the site to assess w hich trees
    should be retained/ rem oved/ replaced and m akes recom m endations for protection
    and retention of ex isting trees through the design and construction stages.

Response:
An Arboriculture Report prepared by Coastland Arbor Services is attached. This report provides a tree
survey and assessment of the vegetation on site. Due to the extent of site works required for the new
road and development, and the site level changes to integrate with surrounding built form levels and
to comply with engineering standards, the majority of site vegetation will need to be removed. The
proposal and landscape plans do however identify potential tree retention opportunities and new
planting provision to create a high standard streetscape outcome, including a strong green link
between Arcadia Street and Pinaroo Rotary Park.

Page 6

20. Am ended plans addressing the character for the link road and addressing the
    follow ing:
• Designed for slow speed through the introduction of a restricted alignm ent, tight road
  w idths, vegetated edges and raised crossings yet allow for articulated vehicles
• W ell vegetated w ith locally native species from the established streetscape planting
  palette and cues from P inaroo R otary P ark
• P roviding adequate lighting for safety of pedestrian and vehicles
• P roviding street furniture – seating, rubbish bins, drink fountains

Response:
Amended plans prepared by Mode Design are attached which further address the character of the link
road. The plans show the road designed for slow speed, while allowing for articulated vehicles and
provide a landscape concept indicating a well vegetated link road can be achieved. The slow speed
environment of the road is also reinforced by TTM Consulting in their correspondence (refer item 3)
included in Attachment 1. Further details on landscape species selection, lighting and street furniture
can be addressed as part of a subsequent operational works application. Any specific requirements in
relation to these street character matters can be conditioned with a material change of use approval.

21. Am ended plans relocating the toilet facilities to a m ore central position that services
    the public access adjacent to the proposed P laza connection and w alkw ay and new
    speciality shop developm ents.

Response:
The development site will be well serviced by toilet facilities. Toilet facilities are provided within Noosa
Fair Shopping Centre and the proposed tavern. Given the location of these toilets, additional toilet
facilities near the plaza connection and walkway and new shops is not considered necessary. The
Noosa Junction Placemaking Strategy for increased activation of Pinaroo Park, including a new
children’s playground near the Noosa Drive roundabout is acknowledged. In this regard the applicant
proposes the construction (or contribution for) new toilet facilities to service the new playground area.
The toilet facilities would be designed and located to meet the safety criteria for these facilities within
recreational reserves consistent with the many new facilities being provided within Council park
reserves throughout the region.

Open Space Policy Unit

22. Dem onstrate how the developm ent w ill provide a local civic park in accordance w ith
    Desired Standards of Service .

Response:
The Open Space Strategy does not separately define a local civic park which is included within the
open space category of ‘Recreation parks’ defined in Table 1 as ‘used by the community for social,
recreational and cultural activities which provide complementary landscape and amenity values
including civic spaces’.

The Open Space Strategy for Noosa Heads indicates Noosa Junction streetscapes provide local
amenity feature and provide the community hubs for this locality. The current performance of
recreation parks indicates that Noosa Junction has no identified central civic or recreation space within
the community hub. Future directions for recreation parks includes consideration of opportunities to
establish two local recreation parks through embellishment … One of these would support the
development of a community hub in Noosa Junction.

While the development does not create a new recreation park, it provides for and encourages
increased functionality, visitation, usage, and pedestrian and cyclist access of the existing and

Page 7

adjacent underutilised Pinaroo Rotary Park, consistent with the intention of Noosa Junction
Placemaking Strategy.

The Placemaking Strategy also identifies the establishment of a new active playground within Pinaroo
Rotary Park. The community space strategy includes:
Cockatoo Playground and Pinaroo Way: A soft green edge to Pinaroo Rotary Park
Cockatoo Playground, the new playground for children in Pinaroo Rotary Park, features environmental
themes and interpretation, and is supported by picnic and other park facilities. Pinaroo Way is a low
key, low speed access road, which provides a more open interface between the park and Noosa
Junction.
The applicant is prepared to contribute to the establishment of this playground either through
construction of a new amenities block and/or contribution towards play/park facilities.

Through the creation of Pinaroo Way, activating the north-eastern boundary of Pinaroo Rotary Park
and connecting to Noosa Drive, which provides for increased pedestrian and cyclist pathway networks,
the opportunity for low level street lighting along Pinaroo Way, increased sightlines, increased passive
surveillance opportunities and a new public amenities block and/or contribution towards play/park
facilities within Cockatoo Playground the proposed development will ensure this current and
underutilised community asset is returned to its rightful role as a celebrated green space within the
Noosa Junction precinct for residents, workers and visitors.

The development will also provide for a new civic space in the form of a plaza at the corner of
Lanyana Way and Pinaroo Way. This plaza is shown on the amended plans prepared by Mode Design.

These proposed development outcomes will ensure an improved local recreation park identifiable as a
community hub in Noosa Junction can be achieved, consistent with Councils Open Space Strategy.

23. Dem onstrate how the park w ould physically and visually integrate w ith high activity
    areas such as cafes and restaurants and retain strong cycle pedestrian links to the
    tow n centre.

Response:
The proposed new road, Pinaroo Way, extending from Arcadia Street to Pinaroo Park and along the
edge of Pinaroo Park to Noosa Drive, will include cycle/pedestrian paths and provides the opportunity
to visually and physically connect the park to the heart of Noosa Junction. The section of Pinaroo
Way between Arcadia Street and the park will have an active frontage with shops, cafes and
commercial uses. Consistent with the desired outcomes of the Noosa Junction Placemaking Strategy
this will link disparate elements, bring nature into the centre and provide an identifiable community
space … improve the frontage and interface along Pinaroo Rotary Park … and provide … a way of
enticing and attracting people into the heart of Noosa Junction.

    trees located to the interface of the proposed developm ent and the bushland park
    (P inaroo P ark), the proposed future road ex tension to the Noosa Drive roundabout
    and their suitability for protection and retention.

Response:
An Arboriculture Report prepared by Coastland Arbor Services is attached. This report addresses the
interface between the proposed development and Pinaroo Rotary Park and the road extension to
Noosa Drive roundabout. As indicated in the report leaving existing masonary and tar seal in situ and
building the new footpath on top of this and compliance with AS4970-2009 will minimise impacts to
the existing vegetation within the Park from the new road.

33. The subm itted landscape docum entation requires additional inform ation to
    dem onstrate how the proposed planting area in the car park w ill deliver a viable and

          Attention:         Scott Sobey

          Coles Group Property Developments Ltd
          C/- KHA Development Managers


          Dear Scott,

          RE:        Traffic Engineering Response to SCRC Information Request – MCU, Noosa Junction

          1. Introduction

          TTM have been engaged by Coles Group Property Developments Ltd to provide a traffic engineering
          response to items in an Information Request from Sunshine Coast Regional Council. This letter also
          provides response to Council’s Additional Information Request (traffic) and a DTMR Information
          Request.
          The items to which TTM are responding relate to parking demands, traffic impacts and urban design
          primarily relating to pedestrian, cyclist and public transport infrastructure. This response will reference
          TTM’s Traffic Report (12SCT0068Trep130424S2) which was lodged with the development
          application. TTM’s response to individual traffic issues is as follows:

          2. Demonstrate how Lot A can be developed individually including the provision of all access
             and car parking to support the proposed development of the lot, without the reliance of
             Lots D and E (IR Item 18).

          Table 1 provides an overview of parking demands and parking supply within the proposed
          development area based on information within the TTM Traffic Report and updated development
          plans.

An effective total of 652 parking spaces are provided for Stage 1 which exceeds the parking demands
based on surveys of the existing shopping centre and parking rates in the Noosa Plan.
If Lots D and E are not available for parking supply in Stage 1, an effective total of 543 parking spaces
are supplied outside these lots. This is generally in accordance with the cumulative parking demands
and greater than shared parking demand analysis implies. This parking supply is also generally in
accordance with surveyed parking demands and parking rates in the draft Sunshine Coast Planning
Scheme.

The parking supply, therefore, for the interim Stage 1 does not rely on parking provided on Lots D and
E. Parking on Lots D and E provides additional amenity to benefit not only the site, but the wider
community for an interim period only. Parking within Lots D and E, when developed will supply
parking within their own lots as required.
A total of 631 effective parking spaces will be provided for Stage 2 which is generally in accordance
with cumulative parking demands and greater than the shared parking demand analysis implies.

The proposed parking supply is therefore considered suitable for Stage 1 and 2 including interim
(construction) periods.

3. Amended plans addressing the character for the link road primarily ‘Designed for slow
   speed through the introduction of a restricted alignment, tight road widths, vegetated
   edges and raised crossings yet allow for articulated vehicles (IR Item 20)

Pinaroo Way provides slow points through raised pedestrian crossing treatments and curves with the
longest leg length being 140m between Lanyana Way and the main pedestrian spine. Queensland
Streets identifies that this leg length is suitable to restrict speeds to 45kph with all other leg lengths
having a lower design speed.

Lower speeds (down to 30kph) will result from on-road cyclists using the through lanes and
pedestrian crossing activity at raised ‘zebra’ type pedestrian crossings, including the provision of
limited duration on-street car parking. A low speed environment will be further reinforced by the
provision of minimum lane widths and 30kph signage.

The layout of Pinaroo Way has been designed to cater for AV access, being generally 7m wide. It is
not expected that there will be a high percentage of AV type vehicles using Pinaroo Way (Coles
servicing), with the typical design vehicle based on a HRV/Bus profile.

The provision of raised pedestrian crossings on this road would necessitate low vehicle speeds for
AV’s, however two of these should not unduly impact AV movements.

4. Demonstrate this pathway (shared path on Pinaroo Way) meets shared use standards and
   should be 2.5m – 3m in width with associated shade tree planting (IR Item 24)

The southern Pinaroo Way verge between Lanyana Way and the shopping centre service access
provides a minimum 6m paved area with associated planters and landscaping. The width of this area
is sufficient for the provision of a 2.5m wide shared path which will provide pedestrians a sufficient
width to travel between shops and commercial uses.
The western verge of Pinaroo Way between the shopping centre service access and Noosa Drive
provides a 2.5m wide shared path which should be appropriately shaded by trees in the adjacent
Pinaroo Rotary Park.




                                                                                              Page 2 of 9

5. Provide further details as to what Education uses are anticipated and possible transport
   impacts for the development and location of suitable transport infrastructure to service
   such demand (IR Item 25)

The education use in the application is for Type 3 adult education. Tenants of this type typically
consist of small class sizes (less than 20 per class) with one staff member per class. The education
uses are envisaged to be similar in nature to the existing English language school in Noosa Junction.
The use is expected to cater for residents in the local community.

It is understood that potential education uses at this location would be run by a nearby educator and
as such administration associated with the use would occur off site.
Adult students typically utilise public transport and non-car (scooter and bicycle) transport to a higher
degree than transport associated with traditional commercial uses. This is supported by Council’s
parking rates for this use of 1 space per staff member and 1 space per 10 students. Considering a
                                  2                                                             2
typical classroom size of 50m , this relates to a parking demand of 6 spaces per 100m . This is
                                                                            2
slightly higher than Council’s parking requirement of 5 spaces per 100m for commercial uses. It is
considered unlikely that education uses will take up more than 50% the commercial use area which
may result in an additional parking demand of 5 spaces, however, this is considered negligible in
terms of the entire development.

The development proposal is located close to a bus station, provides ample bicycle storage and
motorcycle spaces which is consistent with transport uses by staff and students of an adult education
facility.

6. Amended plans providing on road cycle lanes on ‘Pinaroo Way’ Link Road (IR Item 26)

TTM consider that the slow speed environment including traffic calming and signage for 30kph is
suitable for on road cyclists as the speed differential between on road cyclist and vehicle will be low.
For cyclists who do not feel comfortable travelling on a road of this speed, an off road shared path is
provided along Pinaroo Way.

7. Amended plans provided a high standard shared use pathway, 3.0m in width on the
   western boundary with Pinaroo Rotary Park that connects with existing pathway linkages
   into the park as well as the proposed speciality shop pathway to cater for off road cycle
   usage (IR Item 27)

The plans have been amended to provide a minimum 3.0m wide shared path in this location.

8. Amended plans showing the specified 1200mm wide pathways identified on the Stage 2A
   landscape development plans widened to minimum 2500mm, preferably 3000mm to
   adequately cater for shared cycle and pedestrian use (IR Item 28)

The development plans have been amended to incorporate minimum 3.0m wide shared paths along
Pinaroo Way and through the car park.

9. Amended plans showing high standard off road shared pathway on the south western
   edge of Pinaroo Rotary Park and provide a shared use width of 3.0m (IR Item 29)

The plans have been amended to provide a minimum 3.0m wide shared path in this location.

10. Plans demonstrating more extensive traffic calming measure to prioritise pedestrian and
    cycling movement that reduce traffic speeds to maximum 30km/hr (IR Item 30)

This is discussed in Item 3 identifying the combination of raised crossings, bends in Pinaroo Way,
narrow lane widths, on road cyclists, higher than average pedestrian activity in adjacent areas and
signage will result in low speeds on Pinaroo Way.



                                                                                             Page 3 of 9

Page 17

11. Amended plans showing improved off road connectivity to these facilities through the site
    and demonstrate improved connectivity to the proposed bike parking facilities (IR Item 31)

The bicycle facilities adjacent to the tavern / hotel have been relocated to the end of the central
pedestrian / cyclist spine from the shopping centre. This central spine is a minimum 2.5m wide in
accordance with other items in this Information Request.

12. Demonstrate the proposed loss of public parking does not adversely impact on the
    parking demand of the greater Noosa Junction commercial area including the need for all
    day parking (IR Item 34)

This is discussed in Section 4.3 of the Traffic Report. It is noted that the existing Shopping Centre car
park provides parking supply to external sources. Conversely, Zone 4 in the Traffic report includes
some parking demand from the existing shopping centre. A sensitivity analysis was conducted which
includes the demand in the shopping centre car park only, with incremental addition of parking
demands surveyed in the Council car park and bowls club car park combined. As such this parking
demand survey includes parking demands from the greater Noosa Junction commercial area and the
Bowls Club which is to be relocated.

As the proposed parking supply is greater than the predicted shared parking demands of the
development, some additional external parking within the site is not expected to lead to parking
issues.

The majority or parking within the existing Council car park appears to be related to the Noosa Fair
Shopping Centre. As discussed in a separate DA and Section 4 of the traffic report, the parking
supply within this existing shopping centre is suitable to cater parking demands from this centre with
some external demand. It is noted that a significant level of parking on the southern side of the
existing car park is regularly underutilised. As such the proposed development is expected to result in
a more efficient use of existing car parking areas.

The Noosa Fair Shopping Centre car park is not time restricted and the majority of public parking
within proposed development area is not expected to be time restricted either. As such there is
expected to be sufficient long stay parking availability for internal and external users. This may be
reviewed in the future should parking issues arise.
The car parking designation within the development area is in accordance with the Noosa Junction
Placemaking Strategy and includes the following car parking provisions:

       Short term parking in close proximity to retail outlets is located on Pinaroo Way;

       Medium term parking is located along Pinaroo Way adjacent to Pinaroo Rotary Park; and

       Long term public parking is located at the extremity of the study area, outside of the
        development site.

13. Provide a detailed breakdown of the proposed parking arrangements (IR Item 35)

The base parking demands are attached to this response. The sources of these parking demands are
as follows:

       Shopping centre parking demand is based on parking surveys undertaken on Thursday 29
        November and Saturday 1 December as detailed in the traffic report;

       Hotel / Bottleshop parking demand is derived from a week long traffic generation survey
        (Thursday 18 June to Wednesday 24 June) conducted on behalf of DTMR in 2009 on a
        similar site in Morayfield. It is noted that the hourly parking demand percentages are based on
        this survey, however the peak parking rate is based on a similar development in Coolum (4.8
                                    2
        parking spaces per 100m GFA);

                                                                                             Page 4 of 9

Page 18

       Resident demand are based on 100% occupancy at all times;

       Residential visitor demand 100% occupancy at all times;
       Commercial demand is based on 100% occupancy at all times.

During Stage 1 parking on the residential and commercial lot will be available for all users. During
Stage 2 parking within the residential and commercial lots will be dedicated for their respective uses.
Parking along Pinaroo Way is expected to be limited duration (2 hour limited) or as directed by
Council. Publically available parking within the redevelopment area is not expected to be limited,
however if parking issues arise (i.e. significant levels of long term parking not related to development
uses) a parking management plan including parking restrictions may be required.

14. Provide traffic network modelling and traffic assessment of the changes to road system
    resulting from the volumes of traffic expected to use the Pinaroo Way link road to Noosa
    Drive (AIR Item 1)

Figure 1 shows a map of the local area to determine the potential for traffic to re-route via the
provision of Pinaroo Way. Routes unlikely to be affected by the provision of Pinaroo Way are shown
in red, routes which may be affected are shown in green and routes which are likely to be affected are
shown in blue.




Figure 1: Parking Demand Survey Locations within Noosa Junction

As shown in Figure 1, only existing and future traffic to and from Noosa Drive (south of Sunshine
Beach Road) and Coral Tree Avenue is expected to be positively impacted by the provision of
Pinaroo Way. Drivers to and from Noosa Drive (north of Sunshine Beach Road) and Grant Street may


                                                                                            Page 5 of 9

Page 19

choose to re-route using Pinaroo Way. Other traffic in the local area is unlikely to be impacted by the
provision of Pinaroo Way.
Holistically, the provision of Pinaroo Way is expected to reduce traffic volumes on Sunshine Beach
Road, Lanyana Way, Arcadia Street and Cooyar Street between Lanyana Way and Sunshine Beach
Road.
The provision of Pinaroo Way may result in an increase in traffic volumes along Noosa Drive between
Coral Tree Avenue and Sunshine Beach Road however this is expected to have negligible impacts
given the short distance and low speed environment of this road section. No other roads are expected
to be impacted by the provision of Pinaroo Way.

TTM’s Traffic Report assumes up to 50% of traffic on Lanyana Way may utilise Pinaroo Way. This
assumption is considered to be a conservative approach and was only used to gauge the capacity of
the Noosa Drive / Coral Tree Avenue / Pinaroo Way intersection. This percentage may be high
considering that traffic is only likely to re-route from Noosa Drive and Coral Tree Avenue, and the
utilisation of existing traffic to Pinaroo Way may actually be lower.

It is noted that the report did not remove any trips from the network to account for re-routing by drivers
and as such this assessment was considered very conservative.

The intersections assessed in this report are expected to operate suitably within the design horizon
(2026) under these conservative considerations. However, practically these intersections are likely to
operate better once trips removed from re-routing are considered.

15. Demonstrate the new road will not have any significant adverse impacts on overall
    network operation (AIR Item 2)

As noted above, the provision of Pinaroo Way is only likely to increase trips on Noosa Drive between
Coral Tree Avenue and Sunshine Beach Road. The provision of Pinaroo Way will have a positive
impact some other roads in the local area through traffic re-routing.

The Noosa Drive / Coral Tree Avenue / Pinaroo Way intersection is expected to operate suitably in
terms of capacity, delays and queuing using conservative traffic volumes. Traffic volumes at the
Sunshine Beach Road / Noosa Drive / Grant Street intersection are generally expected to remain
unchanged (with the exception of background growth and development traffic) however the turn
movements at the intersection are expected to change. The change in turn movements at this
intersection is considered unlikely to have significant adverse impacts on the operation of the
intersection.

Noosa Drive between Coral Tree Avenue and Sunshine Beach Road is expected to carry higher
volumes due to the provision of Pinaroo Way and the construction of this development. These higher
traffic volumes however, are unlikely result in significant impacts on this road section as there are
existing treatments on this section of Noosa Drive (on street parking, pedestrian crossings, low speed
environment).

16. Provide a functional layout plan for the proposed link road and intersections and confirm
    that the connection to Noosa Drive can be accommodated within the road reserve adjacent
    to the existing roundabout (AIR Item 3)

The latest development plans show the proposed Pinaroo Way connection to the Noosa Drive / Coral
Tree Avenue roundabout. This plan shows that this connection is accommodated within the road
reserve.




                                                                                              Page 6 of 9

Page 20

17. Buses (DTMR Item 1)

This bus stop is intended for private buses such community buses, courtesy buses and the like and is
not intended for TransLink services. This type of bus will be infrequent (likely 1-3 times per day) and
as such this set down area will be shared with taxis.

18. Taxis (DTMR Item 2)

The development plans have been updated to provide taxi facilities in front of the retail area and
further facilities in front of the tavern. The taxi area in front of the retail area is suitable for up to 2 taxis
and a private bus or 4 taxis and includes PWD provisions. The taxi area in front of the tavern is
suitable for up to 3 taxis and includes PWD provisions. These taxi areas are anticipated to provide
suitable storage for taxis based on a visual inspection of the existing taxi facilities and increased
demand related to the proposed development.

19. Educational Use (DTMR Item 3)

The education uses are envisaged to be similar in nature to the existing English language school in
Noosa Junction. This use is not expected to be significant in nature with a conservative maximum
                      2
estimated GFA of 500m .

The anticipated student population would be no more than 200 students however this number will be
spread over the course a week and will not all be on site at any single time. The education uses would
be located in the commercial part of the subject site adjacent to the bulk liquor store and tavern.

20. Summary

In summary, TTM have reviewed parking demands, traffic impacts and urban design of the proposed
mixed use development. Further information is supplied including parking rates used as a basis to
review shared parking demands.

NOOSA BOWLS CLUB REDEVELOPMENT – COLES GROUP
RESPONSE TO COUNCIL INFORMATION REQUEST FOR MCU




    1. INTRODUCTION
     The information below has been prepared to respond to items 37- 40 & 44 - 45 of
    the Information Request issued by Sunshine Coast Council dated 5 June 2013 for
    MCU 13/0086. The information below should be read in conjunction with the
    following documents:

           Tod Consulting Plans 12691 – sheets SW2, SW3, SEW1
           Aquaintel Integrated Water Management Plan (IWMP), Noosa Tavern
            Development, Noosa Fair – Rev D


    2. RESPONSE TO INFORMATION REQUEST ITEMS

        2.1.       Item 37
    Information Required

    Provide an amended water quality strategy (catchment plan and location of devices)
    which demonstrates separation of water quality improvement between future public
    and private land

    Response

    Stormfilter treatment devices (proprietary devices by Stormwater 360) have been
    added to treat the runoff from the proposed specialty shops within the existing Noosa
    Fair property fronting Pinaroo Way. The existing and developed catchments for this
    area are unchanged so no detention is required. Treated stormwater will be directed
    into the existing stormwater drainage system within the site. Refer to revised IWMP
    by Aquaintel for further details.

        2.2.       Item 38
    Information Required

    Provide preliminary long section and cross section detail of Stormwater Treatment
    Basin A. Etc

    Response

    Stormfilter treatment devices have been proposed in lieu of previously proposed bio
    filtration basin A. Catchment A has been split into two areas and two separate
    Stormfilters have been proposed to treat the runoff from these catchments. Due to
    the vertical drop required across the Stormfilter device it is proposed to extend and
    lower the existing stormwater outlet for Catchment A1 to Pinaroo Park by
    approximately 10-15m utilising the fall available in the existing open drain. The new


                                                                             13 August 2013
                                                                                 Page 1 of 2

    pipe can be buried reducing the extent of open drain in the park. Catchment A2 can
    be discharged via a pipe drain onto the natural levels of the new road reserve
    excised by Council from Pinaroo Park. Refer to revised IWMP by Aquaintel for
    further details

        2.3.       Item 39
    Information Required

    In concurrence with landscape information request items, and concerns raised over
    Stormwater Treatment Basin A, investigate ways to distribute the integrate water
    quality improvement devices into areas of Carpark which will remain unaffected by
    potential future development.

    Response

    Refer to response to item 38 above.

        2.4.       Item 40
    Information Required

    Investigate a revised detention design which does not require locating detention
    tanks within road reserve to mitigate flows from private development.

    Response

    Refer response to item 37 above

        2.5.       \Item 44 & 45
    Issue/Information Required

    Propsed structures are located over/near the existing sewer main. Buildings or other
    structures must provide at least 1.5 metres horizontal clearance from the outermost
    projection of the structure to the nearest edge of any sewer infrastructure. Revise
    drawings addressing the above comments. Additional drawing showing cross
    sectional details of the proposed structures showing existing sewer.

    Response

    Sewer main has been relocated to avoid future building development. Bio filtration
    basin C has been shifted to provide necessary clearance. Refer drawing 12691 –
    SEW1.
