                                                                                                               Type 2 Shop & Salon and

            Type 2 Shop & Salon the use of premises for an activity that is generally found in a shopping

            with dining facilities for 10 of more people


Both uses are an impact assessable use in the Visitor Mixed Use zone in which the site is contained.


It is noted that the existing approved use of the site for 40 seats does not accord with the current definition of a
shop, however advice from Council indicates that the site was approved as a shop/ bistro in 1993 for a total of
40 persons and that an application is required.


As detailed by the attached proposal plans (refer Appendix A) this application seeks to:


      .     Continue to utilise the site for a restaurant and gain approval for a restaurant use.
      .     Increase the kitchen and severy area by 9.5m2
      .     Increase the approved outdoor seating area from 40 to 70 seats
      .     Provide 3 new umbrellas across the front of the site
      .     Provide new landscape planters along the boundary of the site.

occur to the    premises will occur prior to 6am and after 6pm.

The existing restaurant disposes of waste in wheelie bins located to the rear of the site and this area will
continue to be utilised.


All existing facilities on site will continue to be utilised by the restaurant.
