         Dear Assessment Manager

         This letter is a submission to support the planning application for aged care in
         Goodchap Street Noosaville.

         I have read the planning report, the supporting material that is on council's website
         and base my support on the following planning reasons.

            1. Councils Housing Needs analysis identifies the urgent need for more aged
               care bed provision due to Noosa's ageing community.
            2. There does not appear to be any suitable land of enough size within the
               urban catchment to provide for this needed facility.
            3. The design and built form meets the look and feel of the Noosa style.
            4. The location in Goodchap st is on a rd that has good access and close to
               allied services that the aged care will need.
            5. Carparking numbers being provided are far in excess of what the Noosa Plan
               says is required.
            6. The Councils Economic plan has aged care and the health sector as one of its
               key areas for growth and support.

         Demonstrated need, good location, good built form means this is the right
         development at this location.

         Yours Sincerely,
