    DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION: MCU13/0092


    This Application does not meet the Noosa Plan 2006 requirements for Open Space Recreation.
    The Noosa Plan followed community consultation.


    Peregian Beach now
    .
        Peregian Beach is a village and deliberately does not have a large-scale supermarket, schools, churches or highrise or
    hotel accommodation.

.
    .
        Describe what it is about the Peregian Beach Village that appeals to you    -
                                                                                      and makes it unique.

    Peregian Beach’s ’alleged’ need for a limited service supermarket
    .
     Do we need another supermarket? Peregian Beach residents have sufficient access with Coles at Peregian Springs,
    Coles and Woolworths at Coolum Beach and Coles and IGA at Noosa Junction and another supermarket approved for
    the Essence development on the former caravan park? The smaller local stores meet day-to-day needs.
    .
        As most people will drive to a supermarket, what extra convenience does a supermarket on the Bowls Club site
    offer?
    PLANNING ISSUES       -
                              The Noosa Planning Scheme 2006

    Open space network
    .
        If the Bowls Club site is lost to a supermarket, there is no alternative public or private land available to replace it for
    recreation.
    Second neighbourhood centre
    .
     Peregian Beach has a compact village centre. This Application, if approved, would create two centres with the second
    economically and socially detrimental to the existing village.
    Pedestrian connection to the Peregian Village Square
    .
     Pedestrian connection is neither short nor readily accessible over 350 m via the pathway next to the Peregian
                                                                        -




    Beach Hotel and 550 m via Woodland Drive and David Low Way.
    Pedestrian access through the Council-owned PB Community House car park
    .
        The Peregian Beach Community House car park will be appropriated by the Developer for a private commercial use
    and the community will be deprived of access. The plans submitted suggest this is the longer-term intention.
    ECONOMIC ISSUES
    .
        This Application simply proposes to transfer retail spending from the PB Village and other supermarkets in the area
to the proposed new supermarket. This will be to the detriment of existing Peregian Beach Village businesses.

    .
        There is no suggestion of creating additional retail spending in Peregian Beach.
    .
        There is no economic benefit in simply moving retail spending from one part of the area to another.


    ENVIRONMENT ISSUES

Amenity
    .
        There will be a significant impact on residents of Cormorant, Tern, Gannet Streets and Woodland Drive and the users
of Rufous Street and Veggie Village, the tennis courts, Di Hurst Oval, the Kindergarten, the Co-op and the PB

Community House if this application is approved. General noise, increased traffic movements and resident access
difficulties, deliveries out of hours, increased lighting (and security lighting) and potential nuisance impact will all
    negatively affect the amenity of local residents and users of these facilities.
    .
     The development is adjacent to the Peregian Beach Community House where mindful activities such as meditation,

yoga, Pilates, first aid classes, etc. take place.


ENGINEERING AND TRAFFIC ISSUES
Access and parking
.
     Traffic conflict at the Rufous Street entrance to the site will be inevitable between service and delivery vehicles,

private customer vehicles and pedestrians.
Safety concerns
    .
     The increased volumes of traffic on Rufous Street, Woodland Drive, David Low Way and other surrounding streets
will increaserisk to pedestrians and children including at the kindergarten and students accessing school buses at
    David Low Way bus stops.
External Road Improvements
.
     The Woodland Drive and David Low Way intersection will suffer greatly increased traffic congestion and safety issues
will be a major problem.

Drainage
.
     There is a real risk of run-off from the site and Rufous Street containing chemical spills, industrial strength chemical

cleaning products, petrol and oils from the car park, creating health and safety issues for the gardeners using the
natural fresh water spring for their garden plots in the Veggie Village Community Gardens.

      Postal Address of land: 5-7 Rufous street, Pereglan Beach.
      Proposal: Integrated shopping complex development

      I wish to make a submission on the referenced development application, as follows:



              I/We object to the commercial use of the Peregian Bowls Club area zoned Open Space/ Recreation as
              determined in both The Noosa Plan 2006 and the draft Sunshine Coast Planning Scheme (2012).


              This development will adversely affect the consistent land and community use of the current Tennis Courts,
              Community House, Kindergarten, Veggie Village and Di Hurst Oval and surrounding residents.

              The Sunshine Coast Council Open Space Strategy 2011 identifies that "Peregian Beach locality area is
              generally under provided for with recreational parks"(2011:35) and we object to loss of this recreational land
              for the current and future residents of Peregian Beach and wider catchment to commercial development.


      Please Include any additional points of argument regarding details the development application /currently
      planning regulations and/or your personal experience of how this will affect you, your family and the community.

      I/We object further
