3.      The retention of the bowls club over the majority of the former site area
        ensures that recreational opportunities remain for residents of Cooroy within
        immediate context of the site.

4.      The proposed development is consistent in nature with the preliminary
        approval for 6 units that exists over the site, which is valid until 31 October
        2019.

7.      CONCLUSION

As detailed within the planning report and detailed code assessments, the proposal
can be justified against The Noosa Plan local area provisions and relevant
development codes.

While the proposed development is identified as an ‘Inconsistent Use’ in the Open
Space Recreation Zone there are sufficient grounds to approve the development
based on:

     1. The proposed use is consistent with the existing and preferred dominant
        pattern of the surrounding area.

     2. The land is not required for Open Space Recreation, as identified by Council’s
        Open Space Strategy 2011 and Sport and Recreation Strategy 2011.

     3. The retention of the bowls club over the majority of the former site area
        ensures that recreational opportunities remain for residents of Cooroy within
        immediate context of the site.

     4. The proposed development is consistent in nature with the preliminary
        approval for 6 units exists over the site, which is valid until 31 October 2019.

It is therefore recommended that the application be approved, subject to
reasonable and relevant conditions.

This office trusts that the information supplied comprehensively addresses all of the
issues that are to be considered by the Noosa Council. Should you have any
