Re: Requested Changes to Existing Approvals
Beach Road, Noosa North Shore
Council Reference: 23537DA & 2006/2456
I refer to the Requests for Permissible Changes lodged with Council on 19 May 2010,
lyu', ' '
on behalf of Ferrier Hodgson Pty Ltd, in relation to the approvals associated with the (r4'r
Noosa North Shore Eco-Tourism Portal development.
We note that on 15 September 2010 Council issued a number of the requested
changes however, at that time certain requested changes (which were held in
abeyance) were not included in the modified approvals. The purpose of this letter is
therefore to confirm the status of these matters and seek Council's determination and

Preliminary Approval for NNS Eco-Tourism Portal Development Code
Although Council issued a Change to the Preliminary Approval on 15 September
2010, the requested change to Overall Outcome 17 of the Development Code was
not included in the issued documents.

The requested change sought to reflect appropriate project ownership and operations
moving forward. In addition, it concerned the potential dedication of land and eco-
centre to Council.

This part of the requested changes was put in abeyance by Council, such that it could
be considered independently of other requested changes. As a result of more recent
discussion with Council, the proposed dedication of land and eco-centre has been
withdrawn.
With the above now resolved, it is considered, that the balance of the requested
change (concerning management of visitor accommodation) can and should be
approved. We have therefore updated the requested change as follows:
Amend 0017 (by amending the introductory works, and sub-section 'a') to read as
follows:
"0017 The Noosa North Shore Eco-Tourism Portal is administered under one or
more management regimes, to be consistent with reconfiguration of the site, and
based on precincts boundaries set out in Figure 4.1, with:
(a) Visitor accommodation and services principally administered from management
facilities provided in either or both the East Development Zone and the West
Development Zone.
(b) ..... (no change)
(c) ..... (no change)
The above proposed change enables the holiday homes and retreats in the east and
west zones, respectively, to be administered by either a single entity or two separate
entities. The facts and circumstances in support of the requested change include:
n The various project components are unable to be operated as a fully integrated
resort, given the partially completed status of the project, and the likelihood that
separate entities will own and operate individual components.
n In particular, the operator of the Beach Road Holiday Homes (east development
precinct) may not necessarily be the operator of the Beach Road Retreats (west
development zone).
n Therefore it is not practical to require their interaction and reliance upon each
other except where necessary, such as the provision of the sewerage treatment
services (at a cost) as governed by the relevant easements.
The centralised management requirement remains a significant impediment to the
receiver's objective of selling the land to interested parties for the purposes of
completing and operating the various project components.

Development Permit for a Material Change of Use for `Eco-centre'
As outlined in our original request submitted to Council, we requested that Condition
10.4 of the Eco-centre approval be removed. As far as we can tell, this requested
change has not been determined by Council, as it was similarly held in abeyance.
Whilst the future status of the eco-centre has been more recently resolved, the
requested change remains a valid consideration and indeed, a critical matter for the
receivers in seeking to advance the project to its conclusion.
The facts and circumstances in support of the requested change include:
• The various project components are unable to be operated as a fully integrated
resort, given the partially completed status of the project, and the likelihood that
separate entities will own and operate individual components.
n In particular, the operator of the Noosa North Shore Resort (which includes the
eco-centre) may not necessarily be the operator of the visitor accommodation on
the south site (Beach Road Holiday Homes and Beach Road Retreats).
• Therefore it is not practical to require their interaction and reliance upon each
other except where necessary, such as the provision of the sewerage treatment
services (at a cost) as governed by the relevant easements.
Conclusion
Thank you for your consideration of the above. We would greatly appreciate if
Council could attend to these matters as soon as possible. As Council is aware, the
receivers have commenced a marketing campaign and the final resolution of these
matters will remove any perceived uncertainty for incoming purchasers, developers
and operators. Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me
on (07) 3666 5200.
Yours sincerely,
Wolter Cultic Group
