     Mr John Knaggs,
     CEO Sunshine Coast Regional Council
     Dear Mr. Knaggs,
     On Saturday 4 February 2012, I received some of the documents

     regarding the Court hearing held in the Environment & Planning Court on
     24 January 2012, for the application by Scanlon Property Group
     No.4783f11 seeking changes to the Mediation Agreement of 4 September
     2009.
     Now the changes sought have been revealed, the developer’stactions are

     exposed as antunderhandfhidden approach to keep the residents in the
     dark. The changes sought are significant amendments to the conditions

     agreed to by ~he developer to obtain the approval in the first place.

     The Balconies
     The 10juliettetbalconies (2facing south and 8 facing east of the David
     Low Way) and the 2 larger balconies infront of Units 6 and 7t(facing east
     of the David Low Way) will have atcombined detrimental noise effect on
     residents.
     t

     The noise levelstwere taken by MWA ontthe night of Tuesday 31 January
     2012 between 6.1Spm and 10.0Spm. The noise which will originate from
     the balconies of this development will be a different type of noise &

     higher pitched than the ambient noise measured by MWA. The amenity
     here is already affected by hotel noise and this noise will add to the
     detriment.
     These balconies are an attempt by the developer to move from low-cost

     back-packer accommodation (they were referring to it as flash-packer),
     which was the basis for the approval, to more up-market and more

     expensive accommodation. This change does not seem to have been
     mentioned in the Court application but it changes the basis of the

     development approval.
