         The Waterfront restaurant is only seeking one permit location. Significant opportunities are generated
         through the functions with the restaurant employing up to 21 staff.

         other functions are either twice or once per week.

     e   Low community impact;
         OLGR requirements are such that no outside music or amplification is allowed. Staff monitor and
         measure sound levels on a hourly basis at the nearest receptor and record within a log book the
         readings.

         The area has not been identified as a High Use location.

     e   Applications may be considered at any time.

   Conclusion

   In summary, it is intended to use the outdoor area in the association with functions held at the restaurant,
  which are mostly weddings. It is not intended to use the outdoor area for additional seating for additional
  patrons attending the restaurant. The number maximum number of seated patrons that can attend the
  restaurant is 120 persons, which will not change. Consequently, there will be no adverse impacts upon the
  existing carparking situation in the locality, which is desirable.

  The land is well located for the holding of functions which is of significant economic benefit to the general
  community. It is a parcel of land that is not used by the community due to its small size, problematic access to
   the canal and separated from the major areas of the Noosaville Foreshore.

   It is requested that consideration be made by council for the issuing of an appropriate permit / permits which
  will allow an interim outcome to occur to manage the existing customers who have made bookings to use this
   space.
