MCU DA Shop - Shop 4 11 Gibson Rd - Planning Report · MCU22/0083

prescribed within the Noosaville Local Plan Code. The proposed Shop is a business activity which
services the needs of residents and visitors in a form and scale that does not detract from the role
and function of the Noosa Business Centre.

The proposed hair salon studio is located in an existing showroom tenancy, and no changes to the
external built form are required. The Shop use represents a less intensive use at the edge of the
District Centre Zone and provides a transition to adjoining residential areas.




District Centre Zone Code
The proposed hair salon studio (Shop ) has been assessed against, and is consistent with, the
Purpose and Overall Outcomes, and the relevant Performance and Acceptable Outcomes
prescribed within the District Centre Zone Code.

The proposed Shop is of a type, scale and intensity that is consistent with the intended role and
function of a District Centre. The proposed use is located in an existing concrete tilt-slab building
and as such it is highly unlikely the operation will have any unreasonable impacts on the amenity of
the adjoining premises. The proposed hours of operation are consistent with the hours sought for
business uses (AO11.1).

The proposed hair salon is to be located in Shop 4 of the Noosaville Central business/showroom
complex. Shop 4 is currently vacant and as such the proposed use will contribute to the economic
activity and vibrancy of the business centre. As a boutique salon, EdwardsAndCo offer an intimate,
high-end experience for their clients as a speciality retailer.




Business Activities Code
The proposed hair salon studio (Shop ) has been assessed against, and is consistent with, the
Purpose and Overall Outcomes, and the relevant Performance and Acceptable Outcomes
prescribed within the Business Activities Code.

The proposed hair salon studio is of a scale and type which is suitable for its location within
Noosaville Central business complex and provides a transition to adjoining residential areas. Shop
4 is an appropriate site for the proposed salon as it is located in an existing business centre, has
sufficient car parking and is serviced by all relevant infrastructures. The site is well connected with
major transport infrastructure and active transport facilities within close proximity located at the
Noosa Homemaker Centre and Noosa Village Shopping Centre.

The proposed hours of operation for EdwardsAndCo Noosa are consistent with the hours permitted
in AO11.1.
