                                  We write to request that the Noosa Shire Council REJECTthis DA for
                                  a Material Change of use to 317 Lawnville Road, Black Mountain from
                                  ANIMAL HUSBANDRYTYPE 1 - TRADITIONAL to ANIMAL
                                  HUSBANDYTYPE 2 - INTENSIVE.

                                  My husband and I live across the road from this property and believe
                                  that this change of use will directly impact the area negatively in
                                  many different ways.

                                       1. The surrounding area has been, in previous years, subdivided
                                          into lifestyle blocks and has brought into the area many
                                          families that have decided to move to here because of the
                                          beauty, peace and tranquility. There is no previous history of
                                          intensive animal farming in this area. My husband and I
                                          purchased in 1988 and moved a Queenslander home from
                                          Tewantin onto the land. At the time we researched the area
                                          and it was rural, but not intensive animal farming but the local
                                          dairy. The lay ofthe land is major slip zoning which would stop
                                          any major intensive farming with its associated noise and
                                          pollution as there are no level areas of land to suggest that it
                                          would be possible. We would suggest that to allow an
                                          intensive chook farm right in the middle of these lifestyle
                                          properties would impact greatly on the lifestyle choices that
                                          many families in the area have chosen. The area presents itself
                                          as Rural Residential and the previous councils maybe should
                                          have rezoned the area to Rural Residential when they allowed
                                          the land to be cut up in to lifestyle blocks with associated curb
