3. Details of Submission.



When 13 Val Crescent was purchased 17 years ago I had no expectation that a 90-bed aged
care facility would be built right along our side fence. This reasonably quiet residential street
is zoned for detached housing only and this proposed development          is in direct conflict with
the Noosa Plan.

The impact on my amenity can only be negative.

The massive scale of this basically commercial undertaking will diminish the nature and
character of this street.

The local street parking in this area is already under stress trying to cater for the overflow
parking from the 92-bed Noosa Private Hospital right over the road. The Emergency Unit at
the Hospital will also be placed under pressure due to aged care patients using that facility.

The actual 14-16 month construction          period would be a prolonged period of Noise dirt dust
for all ratepayers in this area and completely exposing existing houses will be a security risk
along with the possibility of land movement water and sewerage pipe ruptures and
stormwater       drainage problems. There will be constant electricity and water supply
 interruptions    while new infrastructure    is updated.

 It will be constant mayhem from Monday morning to Saturday afternoon.            I don't feel that
 all the rates paid over all of these years and the money invested in our property land and
 house should be rewarded with the stress of such a development.

 If this one long, continuous building should be constructed we are then faced with multiple
 privacy concerns with rooms and balconies overlooking our yards as well as courtyards and
 walkways at our fence line and increased pedestrian and vehicular traffic raising real traffic
 accident worries for Val Crescent, along with the added day to day hubbub of general noise
 and activity generated by such a large complex.

 I trust Council will ask the involved companies to find a different site for this

 Development.

 Resident since 2001.
