 5780526                 I support additional measures in the amendments to restrict further spread of Short Term Accommodation          of a permanent rental, or owners can enjoy the flexibility of staying in the property whenever they choose.
                         (STA) such as Airbnb in residential and rural areas. However, I have concerns about Council’s resourcing
                         of staff to police the measures. This includes the use of secondary dwellings on residential lots.

 5780532                 I support additional measures in the amendments to restrict further spread of Short Term Accommodation
                         (STA) such as Airbnb in residential and rural areas. However we have concerns about Council’s
                         resourcing of staff to police the measures. This includes the use of secondary dwellings on residential
                         lots.
 5787994                 I support additional measures in the amendments to restrict further spread of Short Term Accommodation

                         of staff to police the measures. This includes the use of secondary dwellings on residential lots.
 5774746                 Please stand firm against Airbnb type organisations. I support your planned proposals.
 5779123                 I wish to support the Council regulations regarding short term accommodation. I live in Ann St. Noosaville
                         and for several years had to put up with noise, traffic, parking and rubbish from STA visitors. Some
                         confrontations have almost lead to physical actions.
 5783302                 I support efforts by Noosa council to prevent further STA premises across residential areas and believe
                         that STAs have an impact on resident amenity, sense of community, and also the availability of homes
                         for residents, particularly long-term rental stock for key workers. This is something affecting our
                         community now
 5828354                 I support changes to prevent STA everywhere except in Tourist zones and not allowing tiny homes to be
                         rented as STA.

                         Small units will just end up accommodating Tourists and we already have too many tourists being catered
                         for. Stop allowing tourists to take over Noosa. Stop allowing STAs."
 5829397                 I applaud limitations to STA and prioritising residents.
 5814997                 The STAs are a problem. Noosa uniqueness must be preserved. Europe is the world's tourist hotspot
                         because they preserve their history. They don't destroy it.
             23115995    Without a doubt the 'short stay accommodation' has caused much of the shortage of affordable housing
                         and rentals in Noosa, this has been inflicted upon us by the Council’s excess approval of STA’s over the
                         past years.
 5818326                 I feel council could assist more residents of Noosa Shire by eliminating the huge numbers of Short Stay
                         Accommodation. This would provide more permanent housing available for permanent rental.
 5819059                 Short term letting has not been beneficial to anyone who is living here. Only beneficial to Once Off visitors
                         and their Absent Landlords. Please restrict or wind back, as other International Destinations are doing.
                         Do not leave it too late.
 5819935                 Stop Noosa Tourism particularly at residents expense
                         Stop Airbnb and alleviate rental housing for the workers that live here.
                         Look after residents needs of maintaining greenspace, kerbside collections, timely emptying of bins
                         especially in holiday seasons, road maintenance.

                         Applaud the proposed changes to short-term accommodation, please make sure you include Peregian
                         Beach in this.
                         Please stop allowing more short-term accommodations, put in stricter laws and give renters a break, we’re
                         struggling.
             23109358    There is no housing shortage in Noosa shire, as a high percentage are now Short Term Accommodation
                         or holiday homes. This issue, which has been allowed to flourish, is directly responsible for the so- called
                         housing crisis.
                         Mandatory registering of ALL STA’s should be enforced. Higher rates levies should be applied on STA
                         properties to maybe/hopefully encourage these properties back to the long- term rental market.
