We, Veggie Village community gardens, object to the proposed commercial use of land that is zoned open
space/recreation as determined in the Noosa Plan 2006 and the draft Sunshine Coast planning scheme 2012.
1. Recreation space is limited in Peregian Beach, and any loss will be extremely detrimental to present and
future Peregian communities.
2. The increased traffic along Rufous Street and David Low Way will greatly increase the risk to pedestrians,
cyclists, and children accessing school buses the kindergarten, the tennis club the Oval and the community gardens.
I
3. Because of the increased traffic congestion, through travellers may avoid this section of the David Low
Way and ’rat run’ via beachside streets including Peregian Esplanade, impacting on residents, pedestrians and
cyclists there.
4. Supermarket parking will invariably spill over to the limited parking areas available beside the Oval and
the Kindergarten, both of which are used to capacity in the early morning and afternoon, market days and
weekends.
5. The intersection of Woodland Drive and David Low Way will suffer greatly increase traffic congestion and
safety will be a major problem.
6. Noise levels, light levels, traffic congestion would be greatly increased and impact greatly on those living
nearby, those using the community house, kindergarten, and also those on using the adjacent recreational/open
space areas.
7. It will greatly negatively affect the amenity and character of Peregian Beach, which prides itself on its
relaxed village atmosphere.
8. The commercial businesses in this development will take business from the Village, and a vibrant village
square is the ’heart’ of Peregian Beach. There will be no economic benefit by removing retail spending from one part
of Peregian to another.
9. Peregian residents are already well serviced by five supermarkets in close proximity at Peregian springs,
Coolum and Noosa Junction.

Impacts on the community gardens:
1. Run-off from the development site and the road will be greatly increased, and will impact negatively on
the gardens Melaleuca wetlands and springs, and may contaminate the water table which supplies Veggie Village’s
water. Potential contaminants include: oil, petrol, chemical cleaners and rubbish etc. A brief video outlines the
importance of the stream and wetlands: https://www.facebook.com/veggievillage
2. We are registered Landcarers for our small but environmentally significant wetland that borders the
gardens and the street. The bush, spring-fed stream, and the wetland wildlife, all add greatly to the gardens beauty
and ambience.
3. Noise (from equipment and traffic) and spill from night lighting will detract from the serenity of the
gardens, and impact on the regular evening events held there.
