Dear Mr Murphy

Objection to the Scanion Group Development Application
215-219 David Low Way, Peregian Beach
MCU 16/0153 & REC16/0041

| object to the proposed Development Application on the following grounds:

1/ Material Change of use Application contravenes the Noosa Town Plan and will destroy our point of
difference and the attraction of our village. | remember that the Caravan Park amenity was the real
essence of Peregian Village and | hate to think it will be replaced by urban density housing with scarce
landscaping.

2/ No Compliance with Noosa Council requirements with majority of the accommodation proposed for
permanent housing. Priced from $725,000 to $850,000, this proposal hardly provides low cost visitor
accommodation for the growing needs of the local community. Peregian Beach is already surrounded by
new small lot housing developments that lack public amenity, open space and village lifestyle.

3/ Setbacks in general to the Rufous laneway in particular, impinge on Noosa’s Master Plan for Rufous
St renewal which is currently in progress, community amenity values and the extensive community
consultation process intended to activate the Bush to Beach pathway upgrade and encourage increased
usage.

4/ The Development’s impact on the creek and wetland, both during construction and upon
completion is of great concern, as is the planned density of housing in this ecologically sensitive reserve
and adjacent National Park. |’m of the understanding that 25,000 cubic metres of imported fill will be
required, giving rise to 150 trips per day for at least 3 months. This means regular heavy vehicle axle loads
along David Low Way adding to the congestion that now exists, particularly at peak hour.

5/ Significant continuous Noise and Disruption to homes along David Low Way, adjoining streets, PB
Hotel, Hardware store, business and private premises in the vicinity of the roadways and roundabout

guaranteed.

6/ Substantially Increased Traffic and Congestion is assured during construction as standing traffic
queues currently form at all accesses to the roundabout, particularly at daily peak times. As a parent who
drops and collects children at the bus stop each school day, the increase in traffic around the precinct has
increased by an alarming rate since the opening of the IGA Supermarket complex.
