5.1         Noosa Plan 2020 Major Centre Zone Parking Rates

Despite the Development Application being made pursuant to the Superseded Planning Scheme, the Noosa Plan
2020 is considered relevant to Council’s consideration of the future operation of the site.

It is considered relevant that Council have advised Stockwell that it proposes a change to the current car parking
rate for office uses in the Major Centre Zone – Noosa Business Centre to be reflective of the same rate that
applies to Major Centre Zone – Noosa Heads, as follows:
           One space per 20m2 for the ground floor; and
           One space per 30m2 for the second and third floors.

It is understood that this change to the car parking rates for the Major Centre Zone – Noosa Business Centre is
to be endorsed by Council in a proposed amendment to the Planning Scheme in October this year.

Reflective of the above, as Lot 22 is situated within Major Centre Zone – Noosa Business Centre as per Zone
Map: ZM-12, applying the applicable rates to the proposed development results in a total parking supply
requirement as provided in Table 6.

                                                                                              Total Spaces Required

                                                                                              (rounded up)
    Ground         1,003.1m2         1 space per 20m2 GFA             50.16 spaces
                                                                                                        90 spaces
    Level 1        1,133m2           1 space per 30m2 GFA             38.9 spaces

The proposed provision of 98 car and 10 motorcycle parking spaces (which equates to 2.5 car parks) exceeds
Council’s expectations for the Major Centre Zone – Noosa Business Centre under the proposed amendments to
the Noosa Plan 2020.

5.2         Local Government Area Parking Rate Comparison

Three additional Local Government Area (LGA) parking rates have been sourced to undertake a comparative
assessment against NSCs superseded planning scheme, the Noosa Plan 2006. These three LGAs include Sunshine
Coast Council (SCC), Brisbane City Council (BCC), Logan City Council (LCC) and Council of the City of Gold Coast
(CoGC). Table 7 provides the applicable office use parking rates as per each LGAs respective planning schemes.

                                                    3.33 spaces per 100m2 GFA or
