                              Development Permit for Material Change of Use for Service Station, Shop and associated
                                                                         Operational Works for an advertising device




4.0            Proposal
4.1            Overview
The proposed development involves the construction of a service station which encompasses a shop
component and an associated advertising device (freestanding pylon sign). Specifically, the service station will
have a total GFA of 223m2, which includes the shop component. The shop component consists of 123m2 GFA
which supports the operation of the service station. The proposal includes four (4) double sided fuel refuelling
stations which are located in the middle of the site and are covered by a canopy for the dispensing area. It is
proposed that the development will operate up to 24 hours a day and 7 days a week.

The vehicle access points are gained via Eumundi-Noosa Road, with separate entry and exit driveways
provided. The proposal provides a total of 10 car spaces (including 1 PWD bay, and 1 staff bay) which is
located in front of the service station building and internally, toward the rear boundary of the site so to minimise
their visual appearance from the street.

Extensive landscaped areas are provided throughout the proposal, with planting concentrations proposed to
the front boundary of the site, either side of the crossovers, as well as along the full extent of the rear boundary.
Landscaping includes low shrubs and groundcover only at street frontage to maintain sightlines for passenger
and vehicle safety. Dense screen planting is provided along the rear boundary so to supplement the existing
vegetation at this location toward the rear of the site, and to shade four of the parking bays, including the staff
car park. Refuse is located within a screened service yard, positioned behind the service station so it is not
visible from the street.

Architectural Proposed Plans have been prepared by Nettleton Tribe Architects and are included within
Appendix C.
The detail of the proposal is discussed further below.
