                                                 NOOSA QUAD BIKE TOURS
                                             298 TABLELANDS ROAD COORAN



                       Jack Lewis


                       Today we present to you over seven hundred letters of support for our proposed Quad
                       Bike Tour Business.


                       To date we have also presented to you letters of support and letters describing the
                       existing amenity ofthe area from practically every localised neighbouring property of
                       both Tablelru;tds Road and the Woondum National Park. The only exception is Layla
                       Fowler’s property at 382 Tablelands Road. (See the attached map showing the
                       localised SllPport)


                       There is also absolutely no possible way that any residence outside of this area could
  "i;
  ~
                       be affected in any manner or form from our proposed Quad Bike Tours. In addition to
;:_~
 ,                     our recent noise testing done by David Moore and Associates, we submitted to you

                       the practical sound testing done with the three closest neighbours. This proved beyond
                       a doubt that the noise   generated from our business falls within the guidelines set. We
                       will add that no property has a clear line of site to the area to be used and further
                       computer modelling could never prove a practical test wrong.

                       Of the over seven hundred letters presented to you today, I can confIrm that over three
                       hundred of them are small business owners in the Noosa area. All these businesses
                       owners   expressed how difficult and slow business was during these tough economical
                       times and their own frustration at the laws that allow Sllch a small group of objectors
                       to create such delays in the approvals by council. Many small business owners also

                       complained about the difficulty in getting a new business venture up and running
                       because of red tape within council, some have walked away from investing in the
                       Noosa area completely.


                       We have also been in touch with almost every one of the valid objectors. We have
                       taken many issues on board and agreed to make adjustments to the running of our
                       proposed business to suite their objections.

                       We have also been informed by objectors that Layla Fowler misrepresented our
                       business proposal to them and that they siged letters of objection addressed to
                                                                                    .

We also note that even with the objections not properly made, the number of valid
objections to our proposed material change of use has actually decreased since the
close ofthe public notification period in March 2012. As all the other objections
submitted relate to the National Park and not to our property at 298 Tablelands Road.
The total number of households objecting to any matter related to a material change of
use for a small business   type 3 remains at only five.

We personally met with each and everyone of the over seven hundred supporters. We
discussed our proposal in detail and gained their support based on facts. Each letter is
an individual submission and can not be treated as a      petition. We have surveyed over
a hundred of the supporters and everyone of them agrees that their support letter is an

individual letter of support and as such demand council load it to pd online as such
and not under a group mass loading.


We too will not accept a group loading, it has taken us hundreds of man hours to
collect these letters of support and if it takes council hundreds of hours to up load to
pd online so be it. To date we have printed offpd online at different intervals and can
assure council it always appears to be in favour of the handful of objectors.



One strong point is the fact the noise testing done by our neighbours are not (not
properly made submissions) as loaded to your pd online but are clearly a response to
councils requests for more information regarding noise.


We trust council will now fast track our approval to start operating this much sought
after small business, which will create employment and benefit the whole community..




Yours truly,




Charles Marais
