Dear John,

RE: INFORMATION REQUEST - MCU16/0066 OPW16/0133 - 6 TAYLOR COURT, COOROY

Background

Urban Economics was commissioned by Project Urban of behalf of Hass Holdings Pty Ltd to prepare an Economic
Impact Assessment (EIA) for a proposed service station and drive through fast-food development at 6 Taylor Court,
Cooroy . The Assessment accompanied the Development Application MCU16/0066 submitted June 10th 2016 with
Noosa Shire Council.

Subsequently, Council has issued an Information Request dated July 22nd 2016 which seeks additional information
regarding the need and impact of the proposed development at the subject site.

Specifically, this Response addresses ‘Information Required’ Items 1,2,3 and 6 of the Information Request which
seeks:

    1. Additional assessment providing:
           A more detailed review of distances between service stations along the Bruce Highway, besides in
               the immediate vicinity of the site.
           Accessibility requirements of such facilities.
           Expression of interest for tenants at the site.
           Any other material demonstrating the development is needed to service highway travellers.

    2. Further analysis addressing the above issues and demonstrating the development will have acceptable
       levels of impact on the two service stations in Cooroy. The distribution of impacts could be outlined based
       on sales generated from the trade area, as compared with traffic along the Bruce Highway.
