in the Officers report to the General meeting dated 13 December 2021 and recommended approval for the
undefined use component and provided below for reference:

That Council note the report by the Development Planner to the General Committee Meeting dated 13
December 2021 regarding Application No. MCU21/0104 for a Material Change of Use - Motorcycle/Scooter
Sales and Repair and Caretaker’s Accommodation, situated at 16 Rene St Noosaville and:

A. Approve the application in part for an Undefined Use Motorcycle/Scooter Sales and Repair in accordance
with the following conditions:

• The proposal is complementary and directly associated with the proposed industrial use.

• The proposal will not compromise the use of the area from being used for predominantly industrial

In terms of car parking, although the ‘outdoor use area’ is not calculated as parking spaces, is large and is
sufficient for at least 30 motorcycles, an additional 2 motorcycle spaces have been provided to comply with
the Driveway and Parking Code so as to provide clarity to the development. Please note that the ‘outdoor
use area’ is also used for the Low impact industry component (drop off and pick up area of mechanical/repair
scooters) and as such there is parking onsite well in excess of that set out by the Planning Scheme and more
than sufficient for the intended use.

The following Table provides a carparking analysis showing that 6.5 spaces fully comply with Table 9.4.1.4 of
the Driveways and Parking Code. Noting the analysis bases the mechanical/repair component on Low
Impact Industry use carparking rate (GFA) and the sales component on the ‘Outdoor Sales’ use carparking
rate (TUA). For clarity one is based on GFA and the other TUA. This is considered reasonable in this instance.
