Dear Sir:
I would like to lodge a submission opposing the following proposed development of 5-7 Rufous Street, Peregian Beach:

Application No. MCU13/0092 Development Permit for Material Change of use of premises (Entertainment and dining type

1 food and beverages, commercial type | office and retail business type 2 shop and salon - 5-7 Rufous St Peregian Beach.
This land is currently zoned Open Space Recreation, which, under Division 13 - General Provisions for the Eastern
Beaches Locality Code and Division 14 - Overall outcomes for the Eastern Beaches Locality, section 7.8.2 (p) For Peregian

Beach (x) For the Open Space recreation zone of the Noosa Plan. It states the following:

areas of open space contribute to the desired lifestyle of residents by ollering a variety of passive and active recreational

experiences that are conducive to community interaction and wellbeing.
The proposed development of a shopping centre is inconsistent with the intent of the zoning.

I {cel very strongly that this proposed development is both unnecessary, as there is already sufficient shopping in the
Peregian Village area, and with a large Coles supermarket very close by, and detrimental to the lifestyle of the Peregian Area

due to the loss of open recreational space and the impacts on the surrounding environment.

It is bad enough that the caravan park is due to be developed without losing yet another parcel of recreational land forever.

Sincerely,

Regina Huntington
