Dear Sir/Madam,

RE:      LODGEMENT OF A DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION
Material Change of Use – Development Permit Material Change of Use Entertainment and
Dining Business Type 1 Food & Beverages located at Shop 4a and 4b/ 1 Arcadia Street, Noosa
Heads and described as Lot 232 on RP95668.

Martoo Consulting has been engaged by the owner of the site to submit a development application
seeking a Material Change of Use for Entertainment and Dining Business Type 1 – Food and
Beverages for two restaurants and associated outdoor dining area. The Noosa Council is the
Assessment Manager for this development application under the Sustainable Planning Act 2009.

The applicant seeks approval to utilise the existing commercial shops for two cafes/restaurants and
outdoor dining.

This letter supports the above development application by explaining the site and the applicant’s
rationale for the proposed land use and concludes by providing our brief town planning assessment of
the proposed extensions.


THE SUBJECT SITE

The site comprises two existing commercial tenancies located at shop 4a and 4b/ 1 Arcadia Street,
Noosa Heads and described as Lot 232 on RP95668. The subject tenancies are located in an existing
single storey building which was constructed sometime in the early 1980’s and extends from Lanyana
Way, Arcadia Street to Sunshine Beach Road. The subject tenancies have been used for a number of
commercial uses including shops, florist and hairdresser with shop 4a currently used as an office.

Shop 4a has an area of 36m2 and shop 4b an area of 39m2. Both tenancies have access to public
infrastructure including water, sewer and underground telecommunications and overhead electricity
supply.

The site located in the commercial area of Noosa Junction and is surrounded by commercial uses
including restaurants, cafes and retail shops. It is noted that the adjoining site to the south is currently
utilised as a restaurant and outdoor dining area (Eddie Cheebas) with similar restaurants with outdoor
dining located opposite (Paradise Arcade).

The aerial photograph below in Figure 1 illustrates the sites location and surrounding uses.

THE DEVELOPMENT APPLICATION

This application seeks approval to utilise shop 4a and 4b and the adjoining outdoor paved area on site
for café/ restaurant purposes. The proposal includes:

     •    Shop 4a – entire internal area of 36m2 is proposed to be used for kitchen and storage areas
          of the café/ restaurant with all dining provided outside (24m2) on the adjoining paved area.

     •    Shop 4b- 21m2 of the internal area of premises (total internal area of 39m2) to be used for
          kitchen and storage areas associated with the proposed cafe/restaurant. 18m2 of outdoor
          dining proposed on the adjoining paved area within the site.

Proposal plans prepared by Epoch Architecture are included in Attachment A.


NOOSA PLAN

The assessment table for the Business Centre zone details that Entertainment and Dining Business
uses are consistent uses and acceptable development in the zone and do not require approval where
located in a building that has been approved for commercial, retail and entertainment and dining uses.
The assessment table however details that any expansion or new outdoor use area is code
assessable development. This application involves new outdoor dining areas on the site and therefore
triggers an application to Council.
