5.         Proposed Development Details

5.1        Material Change of Use
This report demonstrates that the proposed Material Change of Use of Premises for Retail Business – Type 2
Shop & Salon on the site has sufficient planning need and alignment with the Noosa Plans higher order DEO’s
and as such can be supported.
This application is seeking to gain approval by proposing a reduction of use area to 99m2. This equates to an
approximate 75% reduction in the scale and capacity of the current nonconforming restaurant use, and aligns
with the definition of Retail Use- Type 2.
No changes to the internal and external built form of the restaurant are proposed. It is proposed due to the small
scale nature of the operation that only 99m2 of use area be attributed to this application and that the existing
built space in excess of this be deemed as not for use as detailed within the submitted plans.




5.2        Use Area
The proposed Retail Business - Type 2 Shop & Salon use comprises of a change to the approved Use area of the
premises. As per the enclosed architectural plans (Appendix B), the proposal includes external and internal
dining arrangements for 10 persons and takeaway facilities. The proposed Use area is 99m2 which is a reduction
of approximately 75% of the current nonconforming restaurant use. The proposed Use area aligns with the
definition of a Retail Business – Type 2, and there is provision of carparking infrastructure as calculated in Table
1.

The proposal will not result in any major disturbance to surrounding and adjacent land uses. Additionally, no
increase to the building envelope is proposed.



5.3        Carparking
The proposed amended enclosed architectural plans (prepared by Zest Design – Appendix B) illustrate that the
total Use area of the site is 99m2.

The existing development provides 5 carparking spaces (approved plans – 600191.1 and 600191.3 - Appendix
C) adjacent to Kingsgate Drive. Carparking for employees has been provided to the rear of the site and is accessed
via Sunrise Road.

The existing approved carparking spaces have a sealed access and surface.

The provided on-site carparking infrastructure supports the proposed hours of operation for a shop with take-
away facilities.
