                 g.     details on the location of external fill sites/sources, the haulage route, type of
                        vehicle to be utilised during filling operations and frequency of usage. NB any
                        damage to the existing road system as a result of haulage operations shall
                        be fully repaired at the applicant’s expense;
                 h.     It is acknowledged that the preliminary Construction Management Plan will
                        be a draft document requiring finalisation upon appointment of the Principal
                        Contractor employed to construct the works and a final document will be
                        required to be submitted at the Pre-Start Meeting for the project.
    B.    Find the following matters relevant to the assessment and sufficient reason to approve
          the application:
          1.     The previous infrastructure use has been abandoned and given the site is
                 surrounded by business centre type uses, the mixed use development is a logical
                 reuse of the land.
          2.     The proposed commercial, retail and residential uses are consistent with the
                 surrounding zoning and land use pattern.
          3.      The proposed development is consistent with the Noosa Plan 2020, with the site
                 now zoned District Centre.
    C.    Note the report is provided in accordance with Section 63(5) of the Planning Act 2016.
                                                                                     Carried unanimously.
    Cr Stewart re-joined the meeting and resumed the Chair.
