5      PARKING REQUIREMENTS

Car parking requirements for the proposed development are specified under the
Noosa Plan and in Australian Standards 2890.1:2004 Off‐Street Car Parking.



5.1    Noosa Council Requirements
The requirements for parking are indicated in Part 14 Codes for Development, Table
14‐51 Minimum Vehicle Parking Requirements. A summary of requirements for car
parking spaces is shown in Table 1 below.

           Table 1 ‐ Council Minimum Car Parking Requirements
      Type of Use     Parking Requirement
      Medical         1 space per 20m2, or part thereof, of use area.
                      OR
                      3 spaces per medical practitioner whichever is greater


It should be noted that to minimize disruption to waste collection services, on‐street
waste collection for 1100 litre low noise bins will occur from the street. This is
consistent with current kerbside service operations on Maple Street.

       Compliance with Council Requirements
       The development comprises of medical spaces with a combined gross floor
       area (GFA) of 968m2 and use area of 880m2. The proposed development has
       made provision for 47 on‐site parking spaces including 1 disabled space. There
       are 20 tandem spaces with 10 of the front spaces being allocated for all day
       staff. There is an allocated van bay and an ambulance bay/SRV bay.

       The proposal complies with the minimum number of required car parking
       spaces.

       A total of 11 bicycle parking spaces are provided and 8 motorcycle spaces.
       Bicycle and motorcycle parking have been located conveniently in the
       basement car park, adjacent to the lobby lift area, with convenient pedestrian
       access to end of trip facilities located.
