     CHANGE OF USE FOR A TAVERN, LIQUOR STORE, RETAIL SHOPS & SALONS,

Author           Senior Development Planner


SUMMARY/PURPOSE
A report on this application was considered by the Planning & Organisation Committee on 28
January 2014 (refer Item 4.3, page 17) and was subsequently referred to the upcoming General
Committee meeting. The Committee requested that an alternate resolution be drafted for refusal,
noting that the application is within its decision period. The alternate resolution below has been
drafted accordingly.

REQUESTED RESOLUTION
That Council:
A.   Refuse Application No. MCU13/0087 for a Development Permit for Material Change of Use
     of Premises (Tavern, Retail Shops & Salons, Offices, Adult Education and Multiple
     Dwellings) for the following reasons:
     1.    The proposal is contrary to the overall and specific outcomes for the Community
           Services zone under The Noosa Plan;
     2.    The applicant has not satisfactorily demonstrated that the Community Services zoned
           land should not be retained for uses commensurate with that zone;
     3.    The proposed tavern and liquor store will adversely impact on the surrounding
           amenity and the community’s use of public spaces;
     4.    The proposed development will result in the loss of public car parking and parkland
           area and the loss of public parking is likely to adversely impact on the Noosa Junction
           precinct;
     5.    Insufficient community benefit has been demonstrated to justify the loss of council
           owned land; and
     6.    The proposed development raises significant conflicts with The Noosa Plan and there
           are insufficient grounds to justify the conflict with the planning scheme, with no
           significant community benefit or urgent need demonstrated for the proposed
           commercial and retail uses.
B.   Advise the applicant that it withdraws owner’s consent to the application for council’s
     carpark at 29 Lanyana Way, Noosa Heads; and
C.   Request a further report be presented reviewing the Noosa Junction Placemaking
     Masterplan including the Masterplan’s strategies for planning, built form and development
     on the Noosa Heads Bowls Club site.
