                         Bottlebrush completely damaged the structure of the hill and sand dune that our dwellings are built upon.        it is the responsibility of the builder to ensure a dilapidation report is provided prior to the start of the   amendments be made as a result

                         hill. If developers are allowed to dig as deep as 31 Bottlebrush when the build on 27 Bottlebrush Ave, we        qualified person is onsite to ensure relocation of any fauna.
                         will have foundation problems on our land at 29 Bottlebrush, no to mention up the hill. I would also like to
                         please for care for the wildlife at 27 Bottlebrush before any bulldozing occurs. Over the past 2 years we
                         have proof of many animal sightings including carpet pythons, goannas, whip snakes and most
                         importantly an echidna on site. We would like Noosa council to protect this wildlife before proposed

                         existing building as the lifesaving functions are not able to be accommodated in the existing building due       to the planning scheme. The requested change is reasonably significant and cannot be considered within          amendments be made as a result

                         and the eastern wing constructed in 2008 requires major refurbishment.
                         On 19 January 2006 Noosa Council approved a redevelopment of the entire building that included three
                         levels and a basement carpark. Refer attached copy of plans associated with approval 2004/4078. This
                         proposed development was intended to accommodate the foreseeable functions of the NHLSLSC
                         however the previous development did not proceed on basis of NHLSLSC priorities at the time regarding
                         funding and instead a reduced scope was prepared that limited the redevelopment to the eastern wing
                         and a renovation of the western wing.
                         The Noosa Plan 2020 made a reduction to the allowable floor levels from 3 to 2 and reduced the building
                         height from 12m to 8m. It is anticipated that this change was made without reference to the previous long
                         term functional needs and development intentions as demonstrated in the earlier approval. The NHSLSC
                         seeks to have the NP2020 amended by reinstating previous floor level and height provisions allowing
                         development approval for 3 storeys and 12metres as this will allow the necessary spatial areas for the
                         building to serve its community function of surf lifesaving. Note that the additional spatial requirements
                         and request for reinstatement of the 3rd floor are specific to the needs of lifesaving, training and education
                         purposes, it does not include any increase on commercial space for the Supporters Club area.
