PLANNING & ENVIRONMENT COMMITTEE MEETING AGENDA                                   10 MARCH 2020


   The site is well separated from residential uses, with the nearest house being located
     approximately 380m to the east, across the Bruce Highway;
   There is sufficient car parking. Four parking spaces are proposed to be allocated to
     tenancy 1 and there will be a substantial pool of unallocated parking spaces within the
     industrial estate;
   The tasting area is only likely to operate on Fridays and on weekends. The peak periods
     associated with other land uses in the estate are unlikely to coincide with these timeframes;
   The site is within the Lake Macdonald water supply catchment but is located within a
     building that is already committed for urban development purposes. There will be no
     adverse impacts on the water supply catchment from the proposed use;
   The site is already serviced by all typical urban infrastructure including sewer and
     reticulated water;
   The proposal satisfies all higher order provisions of the planning scheme.
The proposal is contrary to a number of Specific and Overall Outcomes of the Business Uses
Code and Cooroy & Lake Macdonald Locality, as discussed below.

     to access the site by means of foot or bicycle through provision of appropriate end-of-trip
     facilities including bicycle parking and shower/change rooms.
     Overall Outcomes
     d)    Business Uses are located where there is an appropriate level of infrastructure and a
           wide range of functions to support those uses;
     f)    Business development has high levels of accessibility and functionality;
Cooroy & Lake Macdonald Locality

                 like to the exclusion of inconsistent uses such as residential or community uses;
