2019-12-11 SM Agenda - Item 1 - Attachment 1 DRAFT 20191202-Noosa Plan Consultation Report

 Submitter   Submission and Grounds of Submission                                                                            Planners’ Response                                                                                   Recommendation
             tourists to support and assist in the maintaining of their investment in Noosaville at the Noosavillage River
             Resort.
             We are one of the largest providers of holiday accommodation on Gympie Terrace and our complex extends
             from Gympie Terrace all the way through to Janet Street behind. We believe the new proposed zoning is very
             misleading and unfair and for one, find it very hard to justify why the likes of Clearwater Resort on Weyba
             Road were moved into Tourist Accommodation and we were not, very hard indeed to justify in all honesty
             when their operation and complex is not dissimilar to our operation. Had we have been located next door to
             Clearwater resort we would have been included in the Tourist Accommodation zone and given that, we feel
             highly penalised simply because we are not next door.
             This resort provides Tourist Accommodation on one of the most iconic locations in the Noosa Shire being of
             course Gympie Terrace on the edge of the Noosa River.
             Just because we are positioned amongst some residential does not take away from the very clear and
             obvious fact that we are tourist accommodation providers. There are many reasons why we should have
             been and should be included in the Tourist Accommodation zoning and no reason that would honestly justify
             why we have been excluded. Our owners rely heavily on Tourist Accommodation and want nothing more than
             for this resort to be promoted in all aspects as such.
             Without going into any further detail at this point we would hope that common sense and fairness prevails in
             all of this and with that in mind, we would ask again that the Noosavillage River Resort be rightfully and
             respectfully moved to the Tourist Accommodation zoning where it rightfully belongs and not excluded, it’s not
             too late. This resort has contributed massively towards the growth of tourism in Noosaville and council as
             well should acknowledge this by way of inclusion not exclusion from the Tourist Accommodation zone.
 21003255    111 Lake Weyba Drive                                                                                            This is not in response to a significant change but rather reaffirming earlier expressed concerns.   That no change be made to the New Noosa Plan as a result of this submission.
                                                                                                                             These issues were considered as part of response to first round submission.




             Submission reaffirming the matters raised in earlier submission made during the first round of public
             consultation and specifically seeking that
             •   the zoning be amended to reflect the existing Detached Housing Zone as per the current Noosa Plan and
                 the image to the right; and
             •   the planning scheme extracts that seek to prevent subdivision occurring on Low Density Residential
                 zoned land along Lake Weyba Drive, be amended to allow for site specific determination of constraints
                 rather than preclusion on the grounds of broad brush mapping.
