6) Substantially Increased Traffic & Congestion is assured during construction as standing
traffic queues currently form at all accesses to the roundabout, particularly at daily peak
times, exacerbated further during school & public holidays. The proposed development risks
being a serious source of additional congestion & given the layout/landform, nigh on
impossible to mitigate in the future.
7)Diminished vistas across the National Park to Mt Cooroy due to bulky Hotel/Motel
building’s projected heights. Council needs to ensure height specifications are accurate &
the current expansive views are maintained. Here’s an opportunity to protect & showcase
the intent of Noosa’s logo ‘Different by nature!’
8)Other concerns include density of buildings & infrastructure within the precinct, the
provision of scarce green space/vegetation/shade, preferred orientation to sunlight &
natural breezes, the provision of public access pathway between two story buildings, with
little to recommend passive surveillance or a non threatening environment, particularly at
night.
9) So many missed opportunities to work with community in consultation with Noosa
Council’s Master Plan for Rufous St & the adjoining laneway to add to the amenity. The
north western corner’s existing vegetation could have seen the creation of green
space/parkland to embellish the precinct for visitors & local community with potential to
make connections between Rufous St /laneway with this development instead it separates
itself from the village feel.
10)This proposal conflicts with community values, endorsed by all who reside & those who
choose this relaxed pedestrian location, where thongs, even bare feet are the norm. It
delivers instead, undesirable urban density & city lifestyle that’s aesthetically at odds with
Peregian’s much sought after relaxed village character & community engagement.
I/we urge Noosa Council to protect the village of Peregian Beach & to refuse this DA.
