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




Response (x): The proposed building structure has been setback within the site so to allow substantial planting
to be provided to the sites frontage so to create a green edge to the development, reflecting the natural
character of the area and surrounding industrial/business uses.

          xi uses that comprise a large component of Commercial and Retail business uses or other non-
          industrial uses not locating on land that is otherwise intended for industrial business uses;

Response (xi): The proposal involves a service station with an ancillary shop, which is a lower order retail
uses, as opposed to a large format retail development. The proposal supports the function of the surrounding
industrial and commercial uses and does not prejudice the site from being developed for industrial uses in the
future if required.

          xiii new development having a high level of streetscape character and building design that is at a
          human scale, integrated with the surrounding built form and landscape features, has visual
          relationships between indoor and outdoor spaces and contributes to an informal atmosphere and low
          speed traffic environment;

Response (xiii): The proposal is a single storey so to maintain human scale and interaction to the street. The
proposed built form is reflective of the surrounding commercial/industrial style development. The glazing of
the service station building allows for interaction between indoor and outdoor spaces.

The proposal has been assessed against the Strategic Framework and Desired Environmental Outcomes, in
particular the relevant outcomes of the Commercial and Retail Uses. The proposal complies with the relevant
Desired Environmental Outcomes as the development is consolidated within identified urban area and
facilitates infill development. The proposed development provides a service to the community for which
demand has been demonstrated (refer to Appendix G). The proposal is also consistent with the surrounding
commercial and retails uses and particularly supports motorist driving from the Noosa Shire Business Centre
heading northeast along Eumundi Noosa Road.


8.5           Locality Plan and Zone
The subject site is located within the Noosaville Locality Plan. Under the Noosaville Locality the subject site is
designated within the Industry Zone.
The proposed development demonstrates a high level of accordance with the intent of the Industry Zone as
outlined in the Noosaville Locality Plan. To this effect it is advocated that, in accordance with the relevant
overall outcomes for the Noosaville Locality as listed in Division 16 of The Noosa Plan, the proposed
development;
         is compatible with the surrounding development in terms of character and building scale, while not
          compromising key industrial functions;
         has high accessibility to arterial roads and the Bruce Highway;
         does not accommodate uses that would harm the environment through excessive noise, odour, dust,
          or other waste;
         is developed in a fashion that does not detract from the character of its locality or impact on the major
          road network;
         does not compromise the provision of important industries and service-related businesses to not only
          the whole of Noosa, but more particularly the coastal area and the north-east area of the former
          Maroochy Shire; and
         Will not adversely impact the quality of water runoff to Eenie Creek and Lake Doonella.
