PLANNING & ORGANISATION COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                      20 MAY 2014


           Any repair work which proposes to alter the alignment or level of existing services
           and assets must first be referred to the relevant service authority for approval; and

B.   Find the following are sufficient grounds to justify the decision despite the conflict with the
     Planning Scheme:
     1.    The proposal provides for a supermarket which will satisfy the top-up and
           convenience shopping needs of residents and visitors of the locality, and is not
           otherwise able to be accommodated within the existing Neighbourhood Centre.
     2.    The development is located directly opposite the Peregian Beach village and is likely
           to complement village and contribute to the village as the focal point for the
           community.
     3.    The site has a current development approval which includes a significant retail
           commercial component and is located between 2 existing commercial uses.
