4             Car Parking Arrangements
4.1 Council Parking Supply Requirement
Table 14-51 of the ‘Driveway and Car Parking Code’ within ‘The Noosa Plan’ specifies that car parking rates
for specific land uses. NSC parking requirements for the proposed development are identified in Table 4.1.

*The provision of 464 spaces is based on each dwelling containing a double car garage.


Per Table 4.1 above, NSC parking requirements specify that a minimum of 1 parking space is to be provided
per dwelling. The equivalent 232 parking spaces will be catered for within each dwelling via enclosed garages
and driveways (minimum of 1 single garage per lot). Whilst only 35 formalised parking spaces have been
provided for use by visitors and surplus residential parking, the proposed provision is considered to be
acceptable based on the following:

•       TTM have been informed by the applicant that the majority, if not all, of the proposed relocatable
        dwellings will be provided with double car garages. As such, the proposed development would have an
        equivalent residential parking supply of 464 parking spaces. It is important to note that the 116-parking
        space requirement is to accommodate visitor and residential surplus parking. Subsequently, it is
        anticipated that there will be minimal residential surplus parking demand outside of that which can be
        accommodated within individual garages.

•       The proposed circulation road width of 6m is sufficient to allow a B99 vehicle (representative of 99
        percent of vehicles) to pass a parked car. For comparison, Planning Scheme Policy 5 of the ‘The Noosa
        Plan’ states that an access road with a carriageway width of 6m is of sufficient width to accommodate
        kerb-side parking. As such, it is proposed that visitor parking demand generated above the capacity of
        the formal spaces provided can be accommodated by kerb-side parking along each of the internal
        circulation roads.

The above parking supply is also to include PWD parking in communal parking areas (not including reserved
residential). The Council requirement for PWD parking is a minimum of 1 space per 100 standard spaces. As
such, 2 PWD parking spaces are required, with one located within the relocatable dwellings portion of the
site and one located within the Cooroy golf clubhouse carparking area.
