Planning Report of Proposed Development Lot 1-10 Thomas St Noosaville

        -Noosa Plan 2020 requires one space per 20m2 of use area, including outdoor business
areas (excluding kitchen and food storage areas).
        -Potential to enter into an Infrastructure Agreement for any shortfall in carparking, including
additional required for any proposed additional use area / outdoor dining.
        - Noosa Plan 2020 requires development to provide soft landscaping on site, particularly in
conjunction with outdoor dining areas. Any application should provide for onsite soft
landscaping in proximity to the front boundary and any outdoor dining area. Refer to Noosa
Plan 2020 - Part 9.4.5 Landscaping Code for further requirements.
        - The site is in proximity to residential development. As such, hours of operation are likely
to be conditioned. Any application should address proposed hours of operation.
        - Infrastructure Charges for a Shop and a Food and Drink Outlet attract the same charge. As
such, an Infrastructure Charge would only be issued if there is any additional gross floor area
proposed.

Hours of Operation
   - Generally hours of operation would be limited to 7pm-9pm in the evening as an ‘Accepted
       Outcome’, however a slightly later closing time may be possible if this issue is addressed
       successfully. Noise from any music would also need to be addressed as there may be a
       resident living above the shop next door.

Outdoor Dining Area
The owner has advised the following:
    - Outdoor Seating Area – The owner has advised that an existing Agreement for the premises
       specifies that the owner of Lot 1 has an exclusive right to use the outdoor dining ‘Area A’ -
       24sq.m for installation of chair, table and umbrella settings for use by customers of Lot 1.
    - A copy of this Agreement for the Lot 1 use of the exclusive outdoor use ‘Area A’ is attached
       as Attachment 5.

Carpark Spaces
   - The original Development Approval was for a development of 505sq.m. overall. Currently 17
       carpark space credits apply to the whole development for the existing uses. The rate applied
       at that time was for 1 space/30sq.m GFA. The current rate under Noosa Plan 2020 is 1
       space/20 sq.m total use area, which will create a small shortage for the proposed total use
       area. The proposed use area includes Lot 1 (41sq.m use area minus adjustment for food and
       storage area), and outdoor use ‘Area A’ (exclusive outdoor use area) for Lot 1 (24sq.m) (by
       Agreement). The exclusive outdoor area of 24sq.m for Lot 1 was not apparently included in
       the original carspace calculation.
   - An infrastructure charge is expected to be applicable for minor additional carpark spaces
       required due to the change of use, that cannot be supplied on site.

Subject Site & Surrounding Land Uses
The subject land (Lot 1) is included in the Tourist Accommodation zone. An existing shop and
outdoor area are located on the site (Refer Figure 2). A Site Plan showing the location and zone of
the site (Lot 1) is included in Figures 3 - 6 above.

The lot adjoins existing shops to the north and south, which are both included in the Tourist
Accommodation zone. The adjoining rear lot on the eastern side of Noosaville Plaza is included in the
High Density Residential zone.
