MCU18/0102.03 - APPLICATION FOR OTHER CHANGE TO DEVELOPMENT APPROVAL FOR BOUNCE HOSTEL, FOOD & DRINK OUTLET AT 14-16 MARY ST, NOOSAVILLE · Report

PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING                                     10 FEBRUARY 2026


D. Find the following matters relevant to the assessment and sufficient reason to approve the
   application:
   1. The use has previously operated from the site and demonstrated that it does not result in
   unreasonable impacts on the surrounding area.
   2. The existing backpackers was approved based on the site being specifically identified for the
   Visitor Accommodation (Type 4 Conventional) use under the Noosa Plan 2006 which is also
   reflected in the Noosa Plan 2020 which facilities Short Term Accommodation on the site. The
   inclusion of a Food and Drink Outlet associated with this land use is a reasonable and practical
   extension of the preferred existing land use.
