MCU22.0083 - Applicant's Response to Council's IR · MCU22/0083

The amended proposed hours of operation for Edwards&Co are:
    •   Sunday                   Closed
    •   Monday                   Closed
    •   Tuesday                  10:00AM to 6:00PM
    •   Wednesday                10:00AM to 6:00PM
    •   Thursday                 10:00AM to 9:00PM
    •   Friday                   10:00AM to 6:00PM
    •   Saturday                 8:00AM to 5:00PM

The proposed opening time of 10:00AM during the week for Edwards&Co is outside the peak demand period
for Fitstop Noosa (Fitstop’s latest morning class is held at 9:15AM and limited to 9 clients).

The overlapping of operating hours of Edwards&Co and Fitstop Noosa is limited to the evening classes
commencing at 5:15PM from Tuesday to Friday. However, this period coincides with the availability of
additional car parking spaces as the other tenancies cease operating for the day.




9.2 Conclusions

As demonstrated above, the proposed Use Area of 139m2 requires 7 spaces to be provided. The proposed
hair salon (Shop) and Amended Site Plan (Attachment 1) provides for 7 spaces on site. Hence, sufficient car
parking is provided on site for the intended use. By requiring additional car parking spaces to be provided,
Council is promoting an outcome which is inconsistent with:

    •   the strategic intent and outcomes of the Noosa Plan 2020,

    •   the outcomes sought by the Driveways and Parking Code,

    •   the principles, desired outcomes and solutions detailed in the Noosa Transport Strategy 2017-2027,
        and
    •   the desired outcomes promoted by Council’s CEO in the Incoming CEO Report June 2022.

This ends my client’s response to matters raised by Council within their Information Request.

We ask that Council proceeds with the assessment of this application under section 13.3 of the Development
Assessment Rules, effectively ending our applicant’s response period.

Should you require any additional information or have any queries please to not hesitate to contact us.
