3.4   Car Parking

      3.4.1 Requirement

      The Noosa Planning Scheme (2006) identifies minimum car parking requirements as follows:
             Visitor Accommodation Type 4 (motels and guesthouses): one space per accommodation unit or
             guest room and one additional space per 10 accommodation units or part thereof
             Residential Accommodation Type 4:

                     one bed units or those less than 75m2 – one space per unit
                     two bedroom units or those between 76m2 and 110m2 – one space per unit and one
                     space per three dwelling units, or part thereof
                     units with 3 or more beds or those greater than 110m2 – two spaces per unit
                     one designated visitor carparking space, accessible at all time, per four dwelling units or
                     part thereof

      There is no requirement for motorcycle / motor-scooter parking for residential / visitor accommodation
      uses in the Noosa Planning Scheme. Therefore, based on the Planning Scheme rates, a total of 99 on-
      site parking spaces would be required, as shown in Table 3.1.
