     DAVID LOW WAY, PEREGIAN BEACH
     Cr Wilkie declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173 of the local
     government Act 2009) due to his membership of the Peregian Beach Community Association who
     have previously made a submission in support of the development application. Cr Wilkie believed
     he could consider this item impartially and in the public interest and therefore remained in the
     meeting room for the debate.

     Planning & Organisation Committee Recommendation

     That Council note the report by Development Planner regarding Application No.
     MCU13/0251 for a Development Permit for Material Change of Use for Retail Business
     Type 2 - Shop, Entertainment & Dining Business - Type 1 Food & Beverages, Commercial
     Type 1 - Office situated at 215 David Low Way, Peregian Beach and
     A.    Approve the application in accordance with the conditions contained in the Ordinary
           Meeting Agenda dated 29 May 2014.

     B.    Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with
           the Planning Scheme:
           1.     The proposal provides for a supermarket which will satisfy the top-up and
                  convenience shopping needs of residents and visitors of the locality, and is not
                  otherwise able to be accommodated within the existing Neighbourhood Centre.
           2.     The development is located directly opposite the Peregian Beach village and is
                  likely to complement and contribute to the village as the focal point for the
                  community.
           3.     The site has a current development approval which includes a significant retail
                  commercial component and is located between 2 existing commercial uses.
