Postal Adress of Land: 5-7 Rufous Street, Peregian Beach. 4573

Proposal: Integrated Shopping Complex Development

 

Dear Chief Executive Officer

 

I wish to make a submission on the referenced development application, as follows: -

 

·         I  object to the commercial use of the Peregian Beach Bowls Club area zoned open space/recreation as determined in both the Noosa Plan 2006 and the draft Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme (2012).

·         The development will adversely affect the consistent land and community use of the current Tennis Courts, PB Community House, Kindergarten, Veggie Village, Di Hurst Oval, and surrounding residents.

·         The Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Strategy 2011 identifies that “the Peregian Beach Locality area is generally under provided for with recreational parks” (20011:35), and I object to the loss of this recreational land for the current and future residents of Peregian Beach, and the wider catchment to commercial development.

·         If the Bowls Club site is lost to a supermarket there is no alternative public or private land available to replace it for recreation

·         Peregian Beach is a Village and deliberately does not have a large-scale supermarket, schools, churches, highrise, or hotel accommodation.   I feel there is no economic benefit in simply moving retail spending from one part of the area to another.

·         Our suburb is well catered for in terms of retail shopping outlets and doesn’t need another shopping complex.

 

Yours sincerely

Carolynn Gracie
