                                                                                    1 Tingira Crescent, Sunrise Beach




9.         Conclusion
This report demonstrates that the proposed café on the site is permitted under the Sustainable Planning Act
2009 and Local Council Planning Scheme. A Material Change of Use of Premises for an Entertaining and Dining
business – Type 1 Food and beverages (Café) located at 1 Tingira Crescent, Sunrise Beach, is an Impact
Assessable development within the Attached Housing Zone under the Noosa Plan 2016.
The planning report demonstrates compliance with the applicable state and local planning provisions including
the Noosa Plan’s Desired Environmental Outcomes. The proposed Entertaining and Dining business – Type 1
Food and beverages (Café)can be supported on a number of grounds which include:


      •    Entertaining and Dining business – Type 1 Food and beverages (Café) use can be considered
           consistent with the Desired Environmental Outcomes of the Noosa Plan 2016;

      •    The development complies with all of the provisions of the Noosa Plan 2016 and the applicable
           codes;

      •    The current non-conforming use has been operating from the premises for approximately 20 years.

      •    84% of all café patrons stated that their patronage at the existing café was a secondary and
           supplementary activity with the primary purpose in visiting the Sunrise Beach locality was to
           undertake activities at the beach (swimming, surfing, kite surfing walking/running, etc.);

      •    The proposal services a local need that has occurred through the redevelopment of the site and
           adjoining lands as multistorey short term holiday apartment complexes;

      •    The current Planning Scheme does not reflect the current and future needs of the community, or the
           activities that are currently occurring;

      •    The existing use is of a scale which is fitting and responsive to the casual beachside character of
           Sunrise Beach;

      •    The development poses no adverse impacts on adjoining land uses; and

      •    No changes to the external built form are proposed;
In order to formalise the current nonconforming use a Material Change of Use to establish a café with outdoor
dining is required. The existing use does not impact on the hierarchy of the larger business centres. Approval of
the proposed café will not conflict with the higher order centres within the Noosa Shire.
As the proposal is consistent with the Desired Environmental Outcomes and the overall outcomes sought for
the locality and zoning, approval of the Entertaining and Dining business – Type 1 Food and beverages (Café)
(Chalet & Co) with reasonable and relevant conditions is recommended.
