             For the attention of:
             Mr Patrick Murphy,
             The Assessment Officer,
             Noosa Shire Council
             [email protected]

             Dear Mr Murphy,

                                       Submission in opposition to the Development Application
                                                     MCU 16/0153 & REC16/0041

             EFFECTIVE PLANNING POINTS THAT DEFEND THE INTREGRITY OF THE NOOSA PLAN

             I strongly object to the inclusion of the housing estate in this proposal, but in particular, the lack
             of visitor accommodation being provided as required by the Noosa Plan.

             The proposed development significantly conflicts with the Noosa Plan for the following reasons:
                 The proposed development being located within the Open Space Recreation Zone does
                    not contribute to the desired lifestyle of residents because it does not offer a variety of
                    passive and active recreational experiences that are conducive to community interaction
                    and wellbeing;

                      The proposed development seeks to provide a small lot housing development and, in
                       particular, Multiple Housing Type 4 – Conventional which is not a consistent use in the
                       Open Space Recreation Zone;

                      The proposed development seeks to provide Visitor Accommodation Type 4, but not in
                       association with Visitor Accommodation Type 2, and therefore is not consistent with the
                       Open Space Recreation Zone;

                      The proposed application appears to reflect an incorrect site cover percentage where
                       some structures have not been included in the calculation. An example of this is the stair
                       and entry for the Reed Beach Houses (refer pages SD12 and SD23). This is a clear omission
                       and indicates that either the developer is seeking to misrepresent the proposed site cover
                       or they have been inaccurate in their calculations by error. In either case the Noosa
                       Council has an absolute duty to reject the application until all inaccuracies have been
                       identified and included in the Council’s deliberations on whether this DA should be
                       accepted.

                      The proposed development does not protect the Peregian Beach caravan park site for low
                       cost visitor accommodation;

                      Visitor Accommodation Type 4 is being proposed on the land, but is not integrated as part
                       of a caravan park use or other form of budget accommodation;

                      The proposed buildings and structures are not designed and sited to be attractive,
                       comfortable and accessible to the public or provide suitable landscape treatments and
                       amenities, conducive to community interaction and convenience and public safety;
