 Submitter   Submission and Grounds of Submission                                                                                   Planners’ Response                                                                                       Recommendation
             mitigate runoff impacts into waterways and encourage sustainability.                                                   continue to lobby for changes to state building regulations.
             Use of solar cells in private and commercial developments should be mandatory.                                         With regards the boundary review comment, this matter cannot be dealt with through the planning
                                                                                                                                    scheme process, and has been forwarded to Council’s Governance Section. While Council is
             Noosa Council should instigate steps for a boundary review so that all of Lake Weyba catchment is within               unlikely to instigate steps to review the local government boundary to including all of Lake Weyba
             Noosa LGA.                                                                                                             catchment, Council will continue to support community groups in their efforts for boundary reviews.

 21002463    Opposition to the significant change to include properties to the north of Noosa Parade, east of Munna                 Acknowledged. For reasons previously outlined about the existing built form and density of the           No further changes to the New Noosa Plan are recommended in relation to these

             Objection to Skippers Cove at 8-10 Munna Crescent which is a holiday resort being included in the Medium
 21006172    Density Residential zone.                                                                                              Existing use rights will remain regardless of the zone change which allow for both permanent and
 21006045                                                                                                                           short-term accommodation for units developed prior to 2006.
             Munna Crescent contains at least 5 holiday resorts including Noosa Pacific, Tropicana and Riveria which are
 20996429    not being included in the change of zoning to medium density despite each of them being resorts in the same
             manner as Skippers Cove.
             Munna Crescent is in a tourist area which can be seen by the fact that the caravan park shares the Munna
             Crescent park.
             I understand that Noosa Pacific, Tropicana and Riviera are classified as different types of accommodation to
             Skippers Cove due to the number of levels in their buildings (ie 3 or more level buildings) and Skippers Cove
             is classified to be no more than a 2 level building. However, I do not agree that this should remove Skippers
             Cove from the same zoning type as those 3 resorts due to the fact that Skippers Cove is a similar property to
             the other resorts in the street. I bought the property on the basis that Skippers Cove was in a resort zoned
             for short term accommodation and this change will affect my ability to carry out short term accommodation.
             I consider that the original draft zoning of “Tourist” was in fact correct for the waterfront properties of the area
             facing Munna Crs. Barbados Crs and the river side of Noosa Parade in Noosaville, as certainly this waterfront
             area is currently used at least extensively if not predominantly for tourist accommodation. Tourist zoning
             seems most consistent with the current utilisation and expectations of owners.
             The river front properties in Munna Crescent and along Noosa Parade, including our property in the Villa
             Marina complex at 106 Noosa Parade, should be zoned Tourist Accommodation. The majority of these
             properties have primarily been short term holiday accommodation units. Any owners choosing to reside
             permanently in these properties can continue to do so. I do not believe this has been clearly communicated to
             residents and owners.
             Medium density may be appropriate for the non-waterfront areas in this vicinity.
             We are concerned that if the zoning is changed to Medium Density Residential for Villa Marina, Skipper Cove,
             Bella Vista, Noosa Haven and Driftwood owners that currently do not holiday let them, will be penalized in
             regard to the value of their units, because of future planning restrictions.
 21001262    Extreme disappointment with regards to the new proposed zoning and following on from our previous                      This submission is not in response to a significant change but rather reaffirming earlier expressed      That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of this submission.

             We have a total of 23 units in the holiday rental pool out of 27 lots (1 of these lots is the manager’s office) and    similar circumstances.
             our owners depend heavily and entirely on "Tourist Accommodation" to provide them with the income. It's not

             Some 12 years ago when my wife and I purchased the management rights, we had 21 units in the rental pool
             and today have more in the holiday pool than when we started, again they are all owners that rely on the
