Submission to Development Application MCU15-0122 - Objection · MCU15/0122

| also have other concerns about the development proposal with respect to parking, because
of the current parking situation in Goodchap Street. Currently, a significant number of cars
are being parked in Goodchap Street on a regular basis by persons working or attending the
Noosa Hospital. Consequently, there is no opportunity for overflow parking to serve the
development, which could make the current parking problem in Goodchap Street
significantly worse during peak periods.

It is also not agreed that there is any benefit in locating the proposed medical center
opposite the Noosa Hospital. This is because patrons will most likely be required to book
appointments to attend the medical centre, which is normally the case. Further, there is no
advantage if arriving by car to the medical centre given the existing Centre is already located
in Goodchap Street, located less than 1km from the Noosa Hospital.

Adamson Town Planning (Attachment 1) has advised that the proposed medical centre
significantly conflicts with the planning scheme. Further, Foresight Partners (Attachment 2)
has confirmed that there is no need for the proposed medical centre at this location.

Consequently, given the comments provided above, the proposed medical centre should be
refused by Council.

Yours faithfully
