    4.    The development of medical uses in unplanned areas is likely to undermine the long
          term viability of the Noosa Business Centre as the Noosa’s principal business centre
          and focus for business and employment growth.
    5.    The applicant has not demonstrated significant need exists for the development at
          the subject site.
    6.    The development’s vehicle access and maneuvering provisions are inadequate and
          would cause impacts on the local road network.
    7.    The development would use spare capacity within the local road network, which is
          undesirable.
    8.    The applicant has not demonstrated sufficient grounds exist to overcome the
          development’s statutory planning conflicts.

    APPEAL D121/15 FOR MATERIAL CHANGE OF USE FOR A MIXED USE
    DEVELOPMENT (SERVICE STATION, SHOP, FAST FOOD, CAR WASH, SELF
    STORAGE FACILITY & TOURIST PARK) 125 MYALL STREET, COOROY
    That Council note the report by the Manager, Planning & Environment to the Planning &
    Environment Committee dated 9 August 2016 and advise the appellant for Planning &
    Environment Appeal D121/15 that the amended plan of development does not overcome

5   REVIEW OF PROPOSAL FOR NOOSA CONVENTION & CULTURAL CENTRE
    Cr Jackson declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173 of the
    Local Government Act 2009) due to her current general membership of CCIQ Noosa, and her former
    role on the CCIQ Noosa Management Committee. Cr Jackson believed she could consider this item
    impartially and in the public interest and therefore remained in the meeting room for the debate and
    decision on this matter.
    Cr Pardon declared a perceived conflict of interest in this matter (as defined in section 173 of the
    Local Government Act 2009) due to his membership of CCIQ Noosa. Cr Pardon believed he could
    consider this item impartially and in the public interest and therefore remained in the meeting room
    for the debate and decision on this matter.

    That Council note the report by the Chief Executive Officer to the Services & Organisation
    Committee Meeting dated 9 August 2016 and
    A.    Thank CCIQ Noosa and their Convention and Cultural Centre team for all of their
          work in developing the pre-feasibility study for a proposed Noosa Convention and
          Cultural Centre;
    B.    Note both the CCIQ Noosa Pre-feasibility Study dated April 2016 and the Council
          commissioned review by AEC Group Ltd dated July 2016 reviewing the CCIQ Noosa
          proposal;
    C.    Advise CCIQ Noosa that based on the assessment by AEC Group Ltd, Council will
          not pursue the concept as a Council project due to the financial impact on ratepayers;
          and
    D.    Make the CCIQ Noosa Pre-feasibility Study and the AEC Group Ltd review publically
          available on Council’s website in order that the current research can be accessed by
          the private sector who can pursue this project if they determine it to be commercially
          viable.
