2 - 37 Gateway Drive Noosaville - Planning Report - 14.09.17

                                                        MCU to establish Entertainment & Dining Business – Type 2 (Gym)
                                                                                          2/37 Gateway Drive, Noosaville



catering for small class sizes (maximum of six participants per class) and one-on-one training programs.

The entrance to the gym is from the central driveway and carparking area. No external works are proposed and
therefore the use will not affect the visual amenity of the area and will retain the existing character of the area.




    7.4.2          Business Uses Code
Comment: The proposed personal fitness studio has been assessed and is consistent with the majority of the
specific outcomes outlined in Tables 14-6 and 14-8 of the Business Uses Code. Whilst the proposed use does
not comply with Acceptable Solution S10.1-S10.3 the use is considered to comply with the most relevant
outcomes and does not impact on the hierarchy of centres.

There will be little disturbance to the environment as the proposed use will not generate excessive noise,
odour, dust or other waste. Negligible vehicular traffic and noise will be generated from the site as the
proposed small fitness studio will cater for small class sizes (maximum of six participants per class) and one-on-
one training programs. The use presents a low scale activity that will not negatively impact upon the adjoining
industrial uses or the residential uses to the west.

Standard water, sewer, electricity and telecommunication connections are provided. The configuration of the
existing industrial estate presents a high level of accessibility and functionality. The site is accessed via existing
pedestrian, cycle and vehicular infrastructures which connect the site to the surrounding residential
communities. The site is easily accessible at all times.

Sufficient carparking spaces are provided on-site for participants and staff with the small fitness classes
commencing and concluding before and after the opening and closing of the adjoining industrial uses. The
existing building incorporates a change room, toilet and shower for participants and staff (refer to
Architectural Plans prepared by Zest Building Design in Appendix A).



    7.4.3          Driveways and Carparking Code
Comment: The proposed development has been assessed and is consistent with the Probable Solutions
described in Tables 14.49-14.51. The proposed complies with the required carparking spaces as demonstrated
in Section 5.4 of this report. The proposed use is located within an existing industrial complex which
incorporates a central carparking area and two driveways. It is noted that several areas of the personal fitness
studio do not contribute to actual carparking generation. These areas include;
    -    Reception,
    -    Equipment storage area, and
    -    Amenities.



    7.4.4          Waste Management Code
Comment: The proposed development complies with the relevant Probable Solutions detailed in Table 14.60
of the Waste Management Drainage Code. The existing industrial complex where the proposed use is to be
located incorporates adequate area for on-site storage and collection of recyclable and non-recyclable waste
materials. As a small personal fitness studio minimal waste generation is to be expected.
