Delegated Report - Code - Planning MCU23 0131 [As Published]
• Local Centre Zone Code;
• Recreational Activities Code;
• Works Codes.
The proposed studio complies with the above codes, noting though that many of the requirements
are not applicable given the studio is proposed within an existing building and no external works
are proposed.
The proposed use is consistent with Pomona’s role to offer a range of convenience goods and
services for the community and is expected to contribute to the lifestyle and amenity of residents.
It is of a type and scale consistent with the Pomona local centre and will not compromise the
hierarchy of centres. A minimum of 50% transparent glazing to shop fronts to create active building
fronts will need to be maintained. Any noise emissions will need to be minimised to ensure it does
not impact on surrounding tenants or the on-site caretaker given the use is proposed to operate
24 hours a day, 7 days a week and will not always be staffed. The use of headphones by reformer
patrons is expected to minimise noise emissions.
The Noosa Plan 2020 sets a similar car parking rate for shops and indoor recreation of 1 space
per 20m2 of use area, though notably at the time of the original approval the rate for a shop was
slightly higher at 1 space 20m2 for up to 100m2 and 1 space per 15m2 or part thereof of total use
area thereafter. This amounts to approximately 5 – 6 spaces available for this tenancy. This
parking may be insufficient during peak/popular times, though due to no set class times is unlikely
to result in significant parking problems in the area.
