Planning Report REV1 31.08

3.0 Proposed development details
Noosa Heads Surf Life Saving Club (Noosa Heads SLSC) is a community organization providing
essential emergency services to beach users. Noosa Heads SLSC requires an industrial shed
principally for the storage of fleet and equipment including trailers, club bus, maintenance equipment,
boats and other general gear used for the purpose of surf lifesaving. The shed would also be used
for the filing and storage of administration and other records/history.
Although principally being a storage shed, Noosa Heads SLSC also proposes to construct a
mezzanine floor wholly within the existing building to create an additional training space, which would
be used for education courses and assessment including First Aid, CPR, Advanced Resuscitation
etc.
The application proposes to operate wholly within existing building 1/11B Venture Drive with the
following features:
  •    Ground floor internal renovations to the existing building to provide staircase to new
       mezzanine level, lift, entry foyer and porch = 113m2 GFA;
  •    Ground floor to be exclusively used for fleet and equipment storage with a wash down area
       including parking for 2 x surf boats and club minibus (12 seater) = 155m2;
           o ‘Ground floor storage will primarily be used at various times for storage of trailers,
               vehicles or mobile units. Trailers and mobile units can manually be moved and stored
               in less traditional sized parking. Some may even be stored on top of each other or in
               racking allowing internal parking. Members using the facilities will be onsite and
               available to move vehicles should there be a need. As they will be members and on our
               site we will ensure flexibility and availability with parking on site.’ General Manager of
               Noosa SLSC
  •    New upper-level mezzanine with kitchenette, bathroom facilities and storage areas = 192m2;
  •    Except for ground floor entry extension and porch, no other external building works;
  •    Formalisation of car parking on the site to provide a total of 13 spaces (4 tandems);
  •    Training Facilities use:
           o 5am to 5pm – up to 10 people, 7 days a week
