7. 2. 2 Ap p li c ab le C o d es

The proposed undefined use is indicated as being impact assessable and is required to be assessed
against the provisions of the entire Noosa Plan. The Codes that are most relevant with regard to this
proposal include the:

             •    Noosaville Locality Code
             •    Business Uses Code
             •    Engineering works Codes
             •    Landscaping Code

          7.2.2.1 Noosaville Locality Code

          As the use is inconsistent it is relevant to assess the proposal against the relevant Overall
          Outcomes of the Noosaville Locality and the specific zone. A comparison is detailed below:

          a) New uses and works are located, designed and managed to—
                i be compatible with other uses and works;
                ii maintain the safety of people and works;
                iii avoid significant adverse impacts on the amenity enjoyed by users of other premises,
                including acoustic and visual qualities; and
                iv avoid significant adverse effects on the natural environment, including native habitat
                removal, fragmentation and attrition;

          Proposal consistent with the outcome as the use will not impact on the existing industrial businesses on
          site as evidenced by other gyms and dance studios existing harmoniously with industrial uses. The
          existing uses are also predominantly warehouse type uses with no industrial manufacturing occurring
          and the fitness centre will be compatible with these uses.

          The entire fitness centre is to be air-conditioned and combined with the tilt up slab construction will
          minimize any noise impacts from the fitness centre. No external works are proposed and therefore the
          use will not affect the visual amenity of the area.

          c) Noosaville retains its role as a focus for visitor accommodation and services in the Shire;

          The proposed fitness centre will provide a further recreation facility for visitors and residents in the area.

          q) Gibson Road, part of Mary Street, Noosa Parade, Reef Street, Weyba Road, Walter Hay Drive,
          Eenie Creek Road, Beckmans Road and Eumundi -Noosa Road are protected as parts of the Noosa’s
          major road network;

          The proposed use is located in an existing building and will not impact on the surrounding major road
          network.

          o) The function, safety and visual amenity of the Noosa’s major road network are protected;

          The proposed use is located in an existing building and will not impact on the surrounding major road
          network.

          For the Industry Zone — land in this zone —

          ii. is protected for industrial functions including Industrial business Type 2 to the exclusion of
          incompatible uses including Residential Uses , Community Uses, Commercial business and most
          sport and recreation uses and Retail business uses;

          The outcome recognizes that some forms of sport and recreation uses require greater floor areas than
          able to be provided in the traditional commercial centres of the area and will be appropriate for the
          industrial area. This has been accepted by Council who has approved a number of gyms/training
          studios and dance studios within the Noosaville industrial estate.
