File No: MCU13/0092
Name of Applicant: Multispan Australia
Postal Address of Land: 5‐7 Rufous street, Peregian Beach.
Proposal: Integrated shopping complex development
I wish to make a submission on the referenced development application, as follows:
I object to the commercial use of the Peregian Bowls Club area zoned Open Space/ Recreation as determined in both The Noosa Plan 2006 and the draft Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme (2012).

This development will adversely affect the consistent land and community use of the current Tennis Courts, Community House, Kindergarten, Veggie Village and Di Hurst Oval and surrounding residents.

The SunshIne Coast Council Open Space Strategy 2011 identifies that “Peregian Beach locality area is generally under provided for with recreational parks”(2011:35) and we object to loss of this recreational land for the current and future residents of Peregian Beach and wider catchment to commercial development.

There is a demonstrated community need for recreational facilities such as the beach volleyball which was well utilised.

There is a currently operating convenience store in the existing retail precinct and a small supermarket is indicated for in the Essence development on David Low way.
